Christ talk about going round in circles...

Chase these lads and beat them ? Has to be remembered that these stewards are only ordinary lads with ordinary day jobs, they are not rent a mob and they aren't special forces.

You lay a few out Gary? You Rovers top boy or is Gerk still the man around those parts?

So then if they won't clear the area outside surely you understand why Rovers fans would take things into their own hands. This is the exact problem in Derry, nobody takes any responsibility for what happens outside. Its Derrys responsibility to ensure proper security for away fans in the ground and the direct vicinity.

Your chairman even spoke of our exemplary behaviour so don't try and send the blame onto us here...

I know from previous instances and you know full that these fellas are outside waiting to have a pop at any Dublin side it seems, especially Rovers. We've had enough broken windows to know what is coming around the corner, ffs going from lads in the carpark the stuff was already coming over the wall at them and they hadn't even left, cars had also been slashed by this stage as gspain said earlier. What do you advise so, just hop on buses and run the gauntlet?

Your chairman doesn't know what hes talking about now?

Hilarious coming from Derry

Our chairman is a moron - same guy who said "sure they stoned our buses on Sunday " (which has been disputed on here) and also give us the cracker "the ruc control outside the ground" - so excuse me whilst I say he's a bullsh*t merchant

All I'm saying is 95% of your fans are innocent in this and I am disgusted that peoples cars/buses were damaged and that people had stones thrown at them...but there are a small element of your fans who would have relished this and went out of the ground for a scrap. They started fighting with stewards who were rightly trying to keep them in

If you are telling me that 100% of your fans were on best behaviour then we'll have to agree to disagree.

4 days later and we are still picking at this

Poor old Derry offended by chants now, more than able to give their own last Sunday with the "free state bastards" chant, and the hassle the stewards/gards had with them but that didn't mean Rovers fans a) got offended or b) called for the local scrotes to gather outside the stadium and attack your fans and team bus They were singing that to the Gardai not Rovers fans Same way Rovers fans were singing it to the Gardai and not Dundalk fans!

You are actually beyond help

Why so you can get served is it? As I've said already a 705 ko, for a meaningless game for ourselves on a Monday in your kip, I'll be barstooling it

Are we sure starryplough is actually not rtid
