I was on the DART when the Shels 'fans' found the Sligo lads(I was right f**king beside them!), huge mill up on the train about 15 involved from both sides. Neither set was wearing jerseys. There was a few grown men(probably in their 40's) involved in it aswell, embarrassing really. Spoke to a fella who had seen what had happened before, the sligo scrotes had hopped on one of the dub lads, and the garda took the sligo lads off the train in Grand Canal, but then let them get back on 2 minutes later. The dublin lads, looking for retribution just ran down to pearse split up and eventually found the lads on the train at Tara St.
It was absolute chaos on the train. I brought my dad along to the final to show him it was good football, he was impressed - but after that display on the Dart Im not too sure he'll be bothered going again. All the lads were about 15. |

I'm all up for having banter and it wasn't what was said was the problem. I go bring my kids to their first LOI game and they get beer cans thrown at them. A 7 year old and a 6 year old don't quite understand how the colour of your jersey warrants them to be subjected to physical violence when they're in floods of tears at a football match! Who said we were beside the Shels fans and who said anything about the North stand - this happened walking up to the Aviva at 2 o'clock in the afternoon along a busy stretch of the canal. Its a great occasion and opportunity to attract neutrals to support the league but its no wonder it has a bad name with idiots with this attitude! Sure i bet half commenting on this thread haven't even been to a LOI game! Damned if you do and damned if you dont.
p.s. my brother in law is heavily involved security and is of the belief that the clubs know this happens but do f**k all to prevent it from happening. My club (SRFC) are one of the biggest culprits here so no rose tinted glasses thanks.
Such a shame really

I was there in my Mons colours, had pre match scoops in boozer on Pearse Street full of Shels. Ni issues at all. |

That doesn't make sense. Its ok for fans to all go to each others Euro games, but kids in other teams shirts are fair game at the cup final? Are you for real?
Were you even at the game? The Cup final is for all the football community, and is genuinely starting to actually be like that. I met fans I know from Rovers, Cawk, Bohs and Pats, and saw Athlone, Fingal (!), Derry and Harps gear. I'm sure the rest of the clubs were represented too. As was a lot of junior football and even Gah. Its not as if we took tickets of Shels and Sligs fans.

As the Champions I concur. But there is something else going on here. You seem to be very bad winners.

A lack of humility. Having the human decency to acknowledge the ref won you the game.
It can happen when small regional clubs have a couple of years success.

Come on man. Have a day off will you, for God sake.
So the referee won us the game. He saved the penalties too did he. Your basically saving that the referee was cheating and favoured us over Shels?
Every Rovers fan left that stadium knowing that Shels were hard done by for the 2nd yellow. We all said it. I genuinely feel for the Shels fans, its hard to take it really is. We know all about bad ref decisions in Cup Finals too so I can and do empatise.

It's a shame that the childish Danny Dyer wannabes from whatever club they are have emerged as the talking point of this thread, it really is and some of the childish comebacks as well are pathetic.

Yea I was at the game. I know the Cup Final is for the Irish public, what im saying is we all know what scrotes are involved in every LOI club so why draw uneccessary attention by wearing the jersey of rivals to a game? Thats all. Thats just my opinion already,

Then why draw attention at European games...?
Kids are out. People in colours are out. Kids in colours are very much out. Blaming fans for getting milled is a pathetic excuse.

He ignored the Sligs keeper coming off his line after his assistant brought it to his attention...
Winters had a complete nightmare, yet allt he calls went your way. Appreciating that and being a little bit embarrassed would be the reaction of fans of most other clubs.

He thinks he is relevent now because Shels are back with the big boys The hard man act on here will soon disappear when a few of their wannabee casuals take a slap on the Luas later this year-Then it'll be back to berating the big bad Rovers fans! |

Lads can you all just ignore this landon donovan poster? I'd rather my trips out to Tallaght/phibsboro be incident free next season as opposed to the opposite because some gobsh*te is brave when sitting in his bedroom using his older brother's laptop and gives Shelbourne and it's fans a bad name.
Joker I genuinely feel bad for you and your kids and would never stand up for scrotes like the ones that berated you. But I'll say again that wearing colours is always going to come with risk no matter where in the world you are.
