Jason Marriner The Lansdowne Riot...

Gardai handed their arse to them that night (even if it did take them a while at first)

A grade A ****. No way did that fat f**ker climb over a barrier either. Stupid **** got fooled by Donal McIntyre.

It was a miracle that no one was killed that night. That video is a snap shot into the mind of the type of scum that the brought over. As we say in France last summer, they haven't gone away you know.

They all got battered onto the ferry in Dun Laoghaire and then when they got to Holyhead the Welsh Cops got on and battered them off

Read his book a while back. That video is practically word for word what he says in the book about that night

They were in the exact same place in 90, difference was there was a ring of uniformed Garda around them whereas in 95 it was decided to have a less obvious presence to reflect the peace process etc so it was mostly plain clothes coppers. In 90, as soon as any of them started getting lairy the guards moved in and nipped it in the bud. In 95 plain clothes cops were just ignored.

There were loads of coins raining down into the South Terrace when we started roaring You'll never beat the Irish just after Cas scored.

I heard (could be exaggerated) that in '95 they were herded out and back onto the ferry straight after the game, practically battered down to the port, gardai had to travel on the boat with them and again any sort of trouble was dealt with swiftly, then on way back the coppers had feet up and a few jars...
