Dublin Fans

Post by walshisland »

Did anyone encounter any trouble yesterday?

one or two in croker down from us was total clowns.

but out in lansdown last night was torture
was fearing for my safety at times.

it was not banter, was serious abuse.

one lad went as far as taking a dig at me in the jacks :o

Sounds like serious thuggery.
I cant really follow the reasons why this would happen, especially at the soccer match.
Surely we're all Irish fans?....
Can I just get this straight - were you decked out in your Offaly colours out in the Aviva?
Was it a Dub that took a dig at you?

Take it as a compliment that they recognised it as an Offaly jersey.
You're almost guaranteed that on a Croke Park match day, that some drug addled local will enquire if your Offaly jersey is a "Meeyad" jersey.

Soccer has a habit of attracting scumbags, always did. Not if you paid me would I go near that Aviva to watch a match these days. Plenty of decent people go to watch the Ireland games as well so don't get me wrong but an alarming amount of thugs go as well.

Yeah a couple of gobshites in the stand yesterday alright but we gave as good as we got and didn't take any crap off them, every county has these type of Apes and Dublin are no different but you know if you get a true blue Dub who knows his GAA his knowledge is second to none. As for that stupid piece of muck who abused you last night, he was probably never beyond the Red Cow roundabout a day in his life.

why didn't you you turn around and level the Dublin scumbag, was in croker a few years ago football game between tryone and Dublin
a few nackers from Dublin and thats what they were were throwing food and bottles of coke down on a few tryone fans. about 10 of them
went right back up to them like most Dublin scumbags they sh.t themselfs even went to a garda for help like most bullies go face to face with
them and they back down.

there are some good Dublin supporters but alot of them sit on there brains.

well first thing i was on my own, my point been when it was put up to them by the few tryone lads they ran looking for help, why should people have to put
up with theses scumbags who wouldn't even know who was playing .
