Quote: Irregular Hoops "Adam Maher is 1000 times the person than the scrote whoever did the graffiti will ever be. He wasn’t the biggest on the rugby pitch, but was one of the bravest.
Every club has idiots, but Rovers need to get a grip on some of their supporters, never mind tweeting how they appreciate each and every one of them (like they did yesterday)
There was a group of them walking across the footbridge after the game yesterday who had no conception in how to behave in public. The language used (in front of kids) from people old enough to know better was disgusting.
This was similar to after the England - New Zealand games last year when (on the footbridge again) a group of Rovers fans proceeded to sing foul mouth songs about Jake Connor (hope they enjoyed his first half display yesterday), with dozens of school ages kids about.
Every club has them, but Rovers seem to have a higher proportion than most. Just ignoring the problem is pretty pathetic to be honest.'"
I agree with what you say, but, what about the very vociferous chant towards the end of the game, which is often heard, and partaken in by a large section of the South East corner. The one which goes Your F%£("!g S**t.
Loads of young kids within hearing.
Also the one sung by both sets of fans which encourages the taking of a gun to shoot the opposition.
Plenty more examples of foul and abusive language used by fans everywhere, and (some) FC fans are as bad as any other clubs.
Family sport? your having a laugh.
