Should go down well. Big smile 



Michael O’Neill has reiterated his hope and desire that Northern Ireland will be playing in Casement Park in the Euro 2028 Finals.

The Northern Ireland boss has backed the plan to co-host the tournament since the outset, and despite developments relating to the cost of reconstructing the GAA stadium, he is standing firm on his belief that it would be beneficial for the country.


On the day he announced his squad for upcoming friendly internationals in Romania and Scotland, O’Neill also offered his opinion on the Maze stadium idea, which was kicked into touch in 2009, and decried the lack of top sports facilities across Northern Ireland, pointing out a more united front should be taken on that matter.

Robertson off injured. Shocked Seeing the flags in the crowd, I'm amazed that anyone from his background could stand for that anthem and play for that team. Knowing that you have teammates who openly make sectarian comments in public. I wouldn't be able to look myself in the mirror but ho-hum, it's his life I guess.

The English players in the NI team were singing GSTK, the handful of nationalist players and sole Scot were silent as the crowd booed.

Can someone explain Scotland and Northern Ireland to me?

A load of Scottish ****s wearing green are beating a load of British ****s wearing blue, via a goal scored by an Irish ****???

Would that be it in a nut shell?

Maybe it's you who needs to look in the mirror. See the speck in someone else's eye without seeing the plank in your own? (and all that).

Strange, I thought much of those great ROI teams of the 90's had an Englishman or two in them? Maybe I'm wrong though.

They did indeed. Times have changed. NI squad currently has twice as many players from our neighbouring offshore island with the natives regularly constituting a minority group in the team.

Lanark Loyal and Larkhall Loyal flags in the NI end last night. 

Scottish football fans sitting in the away end at Hampden and celebrating a catholic GAA player from Tyrone scoring against Scotland, whilst swearing allegiance to a Dutch homosexual king from the 17th century.

The Scots booing GTSK is a head scratcher to me.

The majority within Northern Ireland's Unionist community, have Scottish ancestry. Their British identity is deeply tied to this Scottish heritage. Yet, the Scots, despite voting to stay in the UK, seem to reject GSTK as if they're distancing themselves from the very union they chose to remain part of. 

This is very ironic, considering Scotland's role in the historical and cultural ties between Scotland, Northern Ireland, and the rest of the UK, including the plantation of Ulster that cemented Unionist sentiments in the province.

Adding to the confusion, Scottish football fans also fly Irish tricolours at club games, claiming Irish heritage, while paradoxically booing the Irish anthem in matches against Ireland. It seems like a complex denial or perhaps a selective embrace of their intertwined histories and identities.

It must have been a confusing night for the 'GAWA',  finding themselves in Glasgow, cheering for their team in green, against a team in blue. Don't even get me started on the additional complications of the 'Govan loyal - no surrender brigade'.

The British really did a fantastic job at creating a political cluster f**k in Ulster and Scotland, absolutely none of it makes sense.
