    Fire is atmospheric. Thats why women think a log fire is romantic, why pilgrims to Lourdes get excited at the torchlight procession and part of how the Nazis came to power.
    I agree. i reckon we need a crash in the value of the euro and a sense of injustice over a ****ty treaty forced on us. Roll on the Lisbon treaty referendum.

    Are there fines for air horns?

    Why don't they fine for real offenses like wearing straw hats with pieces of string around them?

    Given that football tops are made of the sort of material that goes up like a bonfire, I personally have zero interest in being near tw@ts with flares when I'm wearing one...
    Semi-finalists FC Zenit St. Petersburg and Olympique de Marseille have both been fined following disturbances involving their supporters at UEFA Cup games.

    Zenit have been fined €8,000 after fans set off fireworks and a smoke bomb during their 1-0 home win against Villarreal CF on 13 February.

    Marseille, have been fined €20,000 after their fans threw missiles and set off fireworks at the same game.

    But it's all a conspiracy by the Spanish and Russian FA's to kill the atmosphere at games......!

    The point of the last two posts is what? That this stuff isn't allowed? Well duh, the point of the pro-pyro people has been that we don't give a flying fck if they are allowed or not and we don't care what the likes of you two think.

    The point of the FAI seems to be that they similarly don't give a "flying fck" what you think. They'll continue to fine clubs whose fans use flares at games.

    No offence, BohsPartisan, but your last few posts make you sound like you're about 14 years old...

    I think flares look great personally, but there's a clear public safety risk involved, particularly in old and decrepit stadia such as those in our league.

    Just last month in Bosnia, Modrica's goalkeeper Bojan Tripic severely burned his hands removing a flare thrown by opposition fans from the pitch and missed several games as a resullt.
    A leading authority on League of Ireland football since 2003. You're probably wrong.

    None taken. I was simply affording John and Steve's posts the respect they deserved. People keep bringing up red herrings like the legality of flares into this debate when nobody is disputing their legal status. As for throwing them, well of course there should be fines for throwing them at players, near players and they shouldn't be thrown at all.

    Fines totaling €300 among three sepearte clubs are considered noteworthy!!!!, and abusive messages are posted on the MB. I am very happy that the FAI attempt to keep pyromaniacs in check if their response is to abuse the organisation running football in the country. I'm glad Intermediate Certificate students aren't running football nor making decisions on my safety.
