As a straight white guy, I can confirm Ireland is not a racist or homophobic country as I've never had abuse aimed towards me.

Interestingly, this thread was established two days after the Brexit referendum. Much water has passed under the bridge since then, with people becoming more overtly political, albeit in a more tribal sense. I suspect this has influenced section of LOI support and the clubs in the meantime. They are just moving with the times, and society's mores and values. Historically, I would have thought the majority of teams were apolitical, even though there would be supporters of those clubs that would be strongly political.
Totally agree with nvidic that specific campaigns in football, like anti-racism platforms and policies are not political.

If people have a problem with campaigns like that, it demonstrates exactly why they're needed.
Also, being anti homophobic and anti racist isn't a political leaning

I reckon irishfootballfan90 likes to hang around industrial estates in Santry shouting at van drivers.

I know it's a very old thread that somebody created but I didn't want to make a new one.
Lately you can notice loads of political movement arround League of Ireland. The lgbt for example is there a need for it? I never seen anyone being discriminated because of their sexuality as a player or a fan at the gate etc. Everyone has a right to do whatever she/he wants. Do proper fans I mean ultras are accepting it? Or they don't mind that political movement is getting into football? Secondly when you go to Bohs or Rovers stadium you see stickers, wall writings etc of "Love football hate racism" or "Love Rovers hate racism" are these football fans connected with the movement ''antifa"? I think stadium should be all about football doing this political campaigns when there is no problem whatsovere in our stadiums as Ireland is a very tolerant country doesn't make any sense. It's dissappointing for me because when I go to watch a football match all I want to see is football not the outside the football matters. Again as I said, Irish people are neither homofobic or neither racist so I don't understand this at all..

Throwing glass bottles at innocent celtic fans for celebrating a goal is what we need to fix before political opinions. Rovers have a history of being scum.

Cork City Fans behaved brilliantly at windsor last night if you are refering to the cork city version of the fields of anthenry that appears on twitter "sinn fein" is replaced by "city" and "ira" is replaced by "turners cross" As far as league of ireland clubs go CCFC actually deal with trouble makers.
