It's amazing how many times the Unionists managed to mention the mythical "British Isles" in that article.

I reckon it's a non starter...but would send out a great message. I'd love to see the President here do it too

What a load of bollox. These kunts would be better off to go back to arguing about flegs or decommissioning old bombers. Why in the name of fcuk would our team want to go up there to some bull5hit reception and even if they did where would they find the time. Fcuk off you shower of w**kers.

Have a feeling some might not make it that civil.

Those Neanderthals in the UUP DUP AND UPtheQueensAss are all the same!! Wont give an inch to any moving on or coming together in Northern Ireland as they are afraid it means they are giving in or 'the other side' is winning! sickening old farts!
I think it was a good idea and would be a good show of unity and support for the whole island but at the same time if it doesn't happen ill lose no sleep about it or actually care either way - but yet again those unionist bigots remind us once again (as if we need reminding) why we support the 'republic' of Ireland - the one true football team in Ireland. Hope they qualify for the later rounds so we can face them!

As for the idea, while I support it, the SDLP are throwing it out there knowing it won't fly, which is basically using the Irish national side as a political punchbag.

Not a bad idea definitely the two O'Neill's should be honoured given they are both from the North.
Would probably work if there was a reception for both teams also in the Free State as well as Belfast. Quite historic the whole island of Ireland is going to a major football tournament. |

They could just do it on common ground i.e. in France?

Indeed. Unionist politicians up North are just one big gigantic cringefest. The worst part is they are not even entertainingly so - instead they are incredibly boring cringe artists who quite simply never have any input of value into a discussion.
As for the idea, it would be a nice gesture but of course is never even going to get close to getting off the ground in that political backwater that is NI.

If Scotland and England Qualified you wouldn't expect this to be done. So why do it here. What a load of sh*te. Anyone from the North who feels Irish supports us. The Nordies can f**k off... don't even want to be based near them in France.

Radio discussion on this this morning with the SDLP man who proposed the idea and the DUPs Jim Rodgers
Rodgers said if they are to have one for ROI they should invite Wales & England as well He also had a dig at most of Irelands team being born in England and said only a few were born in Ireland |

'British Isles' is the correct geographical term for the two big islands and the smaller islands. If Scotland had left the UK last year and become independent, it wouldn't make the slightest bit of difference, they'd still be part of the geographical entity called the British Isles.

My thoughts exactly. Could you imagine if Sinn Fein proposed it?
