Stephen Rea is a prod, but considers himself irish, think his ex wife was big up in the IRA in the 70's. Its also important to remember that the founding members of Irish nationalism/republicanism were all prodestant. Gone a bit of point, NEIL LENNON, has said that he would rather have played for us than them shower up their. Would disagree with Irvine, i think he is on record as saying he considers himself irish

I would have thought "Are they any good" and "Do I like them" would have been more important than who they do or don't pray to when it comes to choosing someone to root for when watching telly in the oul armchair.

Sorry, im not picking on you here Mr Kilbane but i've heard this before and dont buy it. Why didnt he play for us then? Nobody held a gun to his head to play for NI.
