Don't see any problem with including the north on the documentary, in fact I'd find it a bit strange if they didn't.
We're decent enough..

BBC NI's pre euro programme featured fans of both teams.
 
I wonder will TG4 package all four episodes on their EURO 2016 football travelogue into one show. It was enjoyable enough programme.

The first rule of using the term 'political correctness' is that you have to be against it, the second rule is that you don't understand what it means.

A lot of BBC licence payers in the statelet are Ireland fans and a fair few were at the Euros. It's not before time the local BBC recognised that fact.

BBC have to cater for both communities in the wee 6 as both communities pay TV Licence.
There is not 100 NI fans living in the Free State. Why not include England and Wales too.

It's PC sh*t like this that have egg chasers not playing the Anthem in over 50% of their games.

By keeping the nordies onside by having a documentary about them. I doubt BBC Radio Ulster are having a documentary about Irelands exploits at the euros.



IIRC there was a programme on BBC NI that followed both teams. Was on shortly after the Euros
Indeed

In fact, it is a constant gripe of NI fans that "BBC Northern Ireland" [sic] gives virtually equal coverage to the ROI team as to the team from the part of the island which only pays the bloody licence fee. I mean, they even covered Dundalk's Euro exploits.

But maybe we should go easy on 'Irish2011' for this garbage, since for a five year old, he's not doing badly to post anything at all...

40%+ of NI population have an interest in our team and like to see us do well.
Less than 5% of our population have an interest in the pub team and 95% of that 5% only check their results and hope they have lost.

Find it impossible to believe there`s only 100 NI fans living in the ROI LOL Could you throw up an ESRI link for this stat?

My old man used to refer to "the Free State".

He'd have been proud to know that you and he were non-PC soul mates.

I thought they made up for it by playing it twice in the Aviva - once when yon wee Mascot President strides out, and then again when the Oireland team lines up?
And you get a "Buy Two Get One Free" bonus with Oireland's Cahawl.

In fact, all you need add is Michael Flatley, endless repetitions of The Fields of Athenry and maybe a wee bit of Dana and you'd have a whole musical extravaganza all in one.

(I'd leave then - save me having to suffer the 80 mins of shoite to follow...)

I shouted for the other shade in '82 - innonence of youth. Thanks for the heads up btw.
"Perhaps the reason that they did not consider the worst, was because discussion of such cases would have cast suspicion on the planner as being a "saboteur". Paranoia was rampant throughout."
