Holy jaysus, that's some debate you've got yourselves into here. Personally, after the famous game in windsor in 93', I've never liked the North since - the abuse we got up there was absolutely disgraceful apparently. however, i will say, i always like to see small countries/underdogs doing well - lets face it the north are sh1te but theyve exceeded all their potential and expectations - if we performed to that potential we'd be winning the Euros next summer ffs!

Lads, I wudnt support the North because of their supporters who just use it as a vehicle to throw abuse at catholic players and promote their britishness ahead of their supposed Irishness.
I couldnt tell you of the current Republic Squad who is catholic, protestant or hindu and I couldnt give a sh1te in any case, but no matter creed they were I wouldnt give them abuse or death threats for it.
They're in the same league of supporter as the english scum element in my book.

My sentiments exactly.
If theyre not Irish, i dont support them.
Reminds me of those idiots jumping on couches when the Scots scored. | Fook off Erimus and Billybob you absolute muppets with your "the north's not our country" sh*te.. just goes to show what ignorant uneducated pieces of sh*te you really are..They are also Irishmen in the North regardless of race or religion . The war is effectively over and twats like you clearly never did anything for the cause nor to improve current strides forward to peace and prosperity so just piss off back behind whatever rock you crawled from under. The two of you are an embarrassment to Ireland.
Like the English team, I like some of their players and hope they qualify ( which realistically they won't)..for the love of the game... |
Uneducated?? Ask me ar$e and i'll email ye my CV if you want!!
I'm entitled to my opinion and dont think i deserve your little petty rant. You're the one spouting off about the Wolfe Tones and their Republican songs...i sir am not!
I support the National flag of our country, the tri-colour, and any team that plays under it!! I'm an avid supporter of the game and try make as many home/away games as i can. I dpnt travel to Paris, Germany,Wales etc etc to watch our Brazilian-esque football.....because we're clearly $hite, i travel to support/follow our team.
Northern Ireland, Scotland, England or whoever dont play under the tri-colour so you wont see me supporting them anytime soon. Thats not to say i've a keen interest in the games and will watch them. Please dont tell me to start cheering if one of the above qualify as I really dont give a fcuk, i'm pi$$ed off enough at the state of our own game.
If England dont qualify, tough, theyre obviuosly not good enough.(They will though)

lads, i reckon i have as much a perspective on this as anyone. I share a flat with a couple of NI fans and have been a republic fan since i can remember kicking a ball about.
I could not give a toss who wins this match. I've always kinda liked the spanish side but i am a neutral here, two sides who i have no affiliation with.
The only reason i'd be pissed off if the north did qualify is that we have a much better side and made a complete arsehole out of it.

How anyone can support Norn Iron is utterly beyond me.
The majority, not minority, of their fans were pure bigot scum when we last played them

jaysus, only reading through all the comments now, some good stuff there!
At the end of the day, no matter what spin you want to put on it Justice, Norn Iron is a different country when it comes to football (Is that ok for you) and their fans sing passionately when their Anthen comes on, Yes God Save The Queen.
And just as Billybob said, Irish fans cheering on the likes of Norn and Scotland, well let's just say you would not catch me doing it.
Neil Lennon is aperfect example of why we should not support Norn

If the north really wanted to be a team that represented both communities than God save the queen would not be their national anthem. A pure discrace in my opinion, it descriminates against the nationalist players. For this reason i would never support norn iron and their biggotted association, until they change the anthem.
