You can't actually pinpoint any trouble between Linfield and Derry (A Linfield bus was attacked on the outskirts of County Derry for the record)

So now we are onto 'domestic season violence'. I wait with baited breath for actual examples.

Tired cliches and stereotypes LB.

I know full well what Linfield are and are not. I'm calling Fearon on his hysterical tone over the incident and asking why he only seems to be bothered when its der hun misbehaving.

A football fan would have to have their head in a cesspit not to hear of the violence at Derry/Linfield games.
The incidents at this game were well publicised

thats it? one incident at one game?

..

One incident?  dropping an atomic bomb is one incident.

A crowd of youths throwing missiles/ sectarian abuse/ general provocative behaviour/ 3 arrests
amounts to exactly the type of violence at such games which were referred to in this thread.

This level of violence may not register high on your scales of football related violence.

BTW  you requested a link to support a claim of crowd violence, you have got it now
any chance of a link to support your claims of a (phanthom) riot after a Dublin game ast croke Park.

Could you at least have the decency to read the link you posted?

That was a friendly game and the incident was a supporters coach attacked 50 miles east of Derry City.

You boys are seriously struggling. There is no culture of soccer hooliganism in Ireland and save for the odd incident at contentious Dublin and Belfast derbies and Linfield v Derry. You get more action down Sumerhill after a Dubs v Meath game.

Pardon me for butting in, but does the Glens & the Blues count here?

Really - that would have them attacked just outside Antrim?

We have gone from repeated incidents involving a club that has never even qualified for the tournament to one dust up. What happened at that game and immediatly after if was regrettible, but does not equate with the pitched cross border battles you have been claiming. Its a pathetic attempt at some form of sporting snobbery and I have no doubt you would take issue with the polemics on soccer forums about indiscipline and violence at GAA games - Wexford the latest high profile incident.

I know you boys get lost if you have to travel outside the M50 - but even you can't be that stupid

Bump for the wee fella from Dublin........

[Gabriel_Hurl]

I've noticed he tends to disappear from time to time

Care to elaborate?

Bit of a statement to throw up without any explanation. Especially considering your claims re the riot involving Dublin fans months back. At the time you couldnt provide any links, then when asked about it months later you had the cheek to claim "it was all over the papers at the time".

Lets put it like you might, link please?

[Gabriel_Hurl]

you'll not get an answer lads - I wouldn't even bother trying

I've asked him a few times to back up the riot claims. Each time he doesnt reply, dissappears for a few weeks, comes back and spreads the same lies with no backup.
