    Tell all the Bohs you know
    that we've gone and won two-in-a-row
    and it's not gonna be three
    and it's not gonna be four
    it's more likely to be 5-1.

    You know, a thread entitled "FAO Rovers fans" shouldn't, you would think, attract the attention of anybody else, with the possible exception of the odd Sligo supporter. But, of course, I forgot about our obsessed rivals over Dalymount way

    coincidence

    Very funny that the server is suddenly having problems.
    The Ultras have previously talked to the press and I'm pretty sure it would be a good idea to do so again using the right contacts.
    This smacks of IT gards stifling free speech.

    In so much as we all suspected the fuzz I'm told it's genuinely server problems. You should still be able to log on today

    Interpol investigating 'ultra' link with Dublin riots

    Sunday March 5th 2006

    JEROME REILLY

    INTERPOL have been called in to investigate possible links between a man arrested and charged during last weekend's Dublin riots and the organised soccer violence perpetrated by far-right hooligans in Italy.

    Gardai are trying to establish if a man who has in the past been arrested in connection with clashes between Italian football hooligans and riot police in southern Italy was the same person taken into custody and charged with public order offences in Dublin last weekend.

    During that outbreak of soccer violence under investigation in Italy, a young girl lost an eye after she was struck by a firework.

    That outrage has been blamed on 'ultras', gangs of thugs which often have strong fascist leanings.

    Soccer hooligans supporting a number of Eircom League clubs are believed to have taken part in the violence in Dublin last week.

    Detectives are now convinced that while hardline republicans were at the heart of last Saturday's rioting on Dublin's major thoroughfares, some of the violence was driven by football hooligans who used the cover of protests against the Love Ulster parade to attack the gardai.

    For "are believed" read...i've no evidence whatsoever but makes a good story anyway.

    Does he mean UCD & Dublin City fans?

    This is totally irresponsible of the Indo .... unbelieveable and they will totally get away with it. Its like a race to the bottom with them .... if they had any proof of eL clubs being involved in this they should inform us. If there actually is a problem then they should be telling people and more inportantly clubs about it. They are a bunch of liars ..... THEY are getting scummier by the day.

    "Soccer hooligans supporting a number of Eircom League clubs are believed to have taken part in the violence in Dublin last week."

    Who believes it ?? Is it the Gardai .... how come no one has heard anything, i mean its not like someone would forget to tell us, it would be a thread ten pages long by now.

    Its more like they need to make their story more plausible so we'll make up some complete and utter tripe to crutch up their already flakey story. The anti-christ himself could have been at the riots and that still wouldnt link eL clubs to this.

    It is a complete rag, end of.

    The SFAI are the governing body for grassroots football in Ireland, not the FAI. Its success or the lack of is all down to them.
