A Belgian pub manager was allegedly stabbed with broken glass after confronting thuggish Shamrock Rovers supporters last week.
Vittorio Bombello branded the group as “real hooligans”. Around 1,000 Rovers fans travelled to Belgium for their Europa Conference league opener against Gent on Thursday, September 15, where the Hoops were defeated 3-0.
Afterwards, some fans gathered in the Overpoort area of the Belgian city of Ghent. It was when the manager of Cafe Atlas was closing that he was confronted by a group, who were visibly drunk, and they began to pelt stones and throw bikes at the premises.
