Just to say the carry on between between Monaghan and Tyrone supporters in upper cusack yesterday was a disgrace, resembled a derby in English soccer.

Fans goading each other after every score, guards had to take our 3 Tyrone supporters one with a bloodied nose with what looked his 4 year old daughter with him, Only reason no monaghan lads taking out was because they had already left.

Never in 30 years going to Croker and Parnell park have I seen anything like it.(believe me im no shrinking violet),kids having to watch this was terrible.

Tyrone fans have this reputation, many threads have been started on this forum about them.

In fairness it'll be great when the premiership is back, there's less cheating in it now!

Disgraceful. I would say the Monaghan people involved were definitely not GAA people anyway.
Anyone with a 4 year old at a match should proceed accordingly

Both Tyrone and Monaghan fans have a reputation although I've yet to see it myself with Tyrone. Generally in the beatings kildare have received from Tyrone I've had nothing but good things to say about the support. Lets hope this is an isolated incident and we don't go down the segregated route. It ruins soccer in England and talking with opposition is one of the main reasons I go to these games.

I was in the cusack lower stand section 305,and as a Dublin supporter im ashamed to say an absolute idiot of a Dubs supporter kept roaring abuse at cork supporters for absolutely nothing,all they were doing was cheering on there team when they scored, it was disgraceful,and worse still he then threw the contents of his bottle of water in there direction and then screamed at them threatening them ill have yous,what a moran,apologies to the cork fans for this idiots actions,he is no dubs supporter.

Didn't see the incident in question but I did see a guy with a blooded face alright and it certainly wasn't just a bit of banter between the two sets of "fans", not pretty like the game itself.

You missed the league final then Daith?

I've never been to a Monaghan match but been to more Tyrone games than I can remember and never seen anything unusual from them. Is there any footage of this? News reports?

every county have the odd moron turn up for the one or two days in the sun who are never present through thick and thin for their counties. Its no coincidence that Louth's biggest day in recent times, was marred by a couple of supporters attacking the match ref, likewise last year the Donegal 'fan' who attacked Pat Spillane after the semi. This shouldn't offend any true Gael on here because we all get annoyed at this band wagon bunch and if this happened yesterday it is not a fair reflection on either team's true support whom ive mingled with harmoniously on many occasions in the Ulster championship.

Im not singling out a county, or having having a go at any one counties supporters, I have no agenda,if it was cork and dubs id say the same, im saying it was disgraceful with kids around having to watch it, there was an idiot of a Dub supporter not far from me roaring up at them who didn't help matters either, but there definetly was a nasty undercurrent between the fans. guards obviously watched cctv , because later they came up and were able to pick out two tyrone supporters and bring them out.
Being honest the monaghan lads were winding up the tyrone lads which started it.

Listen it happens amongst every creed of supporters. Phillip Jordan was tweeting about Monaghan supporters who turned up drunk at half time and were roaring abuse the whole match. I've been hit on the head with a flag by an overzealous Fermanagh flag in '04 because we wouldn't support Fermanagh.

In 2011, I remember Kildare supporters who were cocky teenagers who were jumping up, tapping on the face and goading some fairly innocent younger Donegal supporters and it took some Tyrone supporters to shout at them to sit down and shut up.

It happens and isn't nice to see, but much like this witch hunt against Tyrone, it is not exclusive.
