    We were allowed to stand on the terrace where we always stand?

    You might have noticed that the Pats fans interested in flag were in the stand, the complete opposit side to you.

    the place was full of little knackers all evening, id say as little as 7 year olds walking around on their own trying to abuse us, just doing nothing but looking for trouble. nothing new in dubland though.
    dodge, i doubt the flag flew away.

    Moving this to Pats section
    When Pats scored a suprising amount of people were jumping arond among the Rovers crowd.
    Some Pats "fans" attempted and had to be stopped picking up some of our 2 stick flags after the game.

    Why would we steal our own flags Dodge? Get real here. Your own stewards said they have had trouble with flags being stolen before.

    The Camac terrace was open to all fans last night.Usually away fans dont go there but Sligo did and i have no problem with that.So dont imagine it was the Sligo Rovers designated area.

    They have. Shels had the same problem 2 years ago.

    Our plan was to go behind the goal but when we got there we were told that section was closed. Yet they let people there in the end up.

    thought it was ground regulation that there was segregation at all games?

    Only reason we went there is because we were told that was the only place we could go.

    Yeah,if the stand behind the goal was open it would have solved alot of the problems (unfortunately it only opened at half time).That is the club's fault and hopefully they learn from it.As for the flags,all supporters are responsible for their own possessions as per every other public venue in the country.Hopefully the missing flag turns up.

    I think the rule is that visitors have to be given a certain % of tickets.Segregation is more something the Gardai would insist upon if necessary.

    People are responsible for their own possessions and it can't be confirmed that a Pats fan took it but common sense and past history would tell you it was a Pats fan. Why are you being such an arseh*le about it? Instead of acknowledging it's out of order or do you think it's acceptable for a visiting fans flag to be nicked?

    I had to get a couple of our two sticks back that Pats that had stolen . These lads weren't schoolies they were in their mid 20s. I've always found Inchicore the worst ground for getting hassle with banners and flags mainly from young lads.

    i asked the person in the ticket van where are the away supporters and he said i dont have a clue, ask a steward and then when i asked a steward he didnt know either. there really should be segregation at all games where theres a big away support, it would cut out any chance of fighting in the ground and with there being none it makes the league look amaturish again
