    And seriously, what's the need for calling me a moron for not finding a player, particularly one who relies on his hands to make a living, getting hurt funny?

    As I've said before, I'm all for pyro, but if it's people like you using them then maybe I'll re-evaluate my position.
    Non-lit, not non-literal. As in, the side which isn't burning. The side which isnt lighted, or lit.

    He's not calling you a moron, he's calling the keeper a moron for picking up a flare by putting his hands on the lit end, not the non-lit end.

    In the interest of fairness, I looked into the Tripic incident and it wasn't a flare at all (that was a mistranslation). He was being pelted with objects and picked what he assumed was a lighter up to throw it off the pitch. It was actually a firecracker and exploded in his hand.
    A leading authority on League of Ireland football since 2003. You're probably wrong.

    Not getting at yourself Sheridan but tired of excuses for unexploded ordanance)UXO in football grounds.
    I have posted on this thread and others a number of times for some people to know my attitude to UXO.

    What is the specific attitude of football supporters willing to smuggle UXO and other material into football grounds-
    The policy appears to applaud when the stuff goes off and criticise when it gets confiscated. And then deny involvement or present age or inexperience excuses when individuals get hurt.

    I have no sympathy for people who are attracted to football cos of the aggressive behaviour of some regulars.

    What are the parameters of the pyromaniacs?
    " I'll go right up to here,
    it can't possibly hurt.
    All they will find is my
    beer and my shirt."
