Maze stadium plan 'will proceed'

[gspain]

It seems to me you "draw your perspective" from comparing the GAA with the Orange Order. :rolleyes:

What has the OO got to do with the proposed new Stadium for the Maze (or NI soccer generally)? :confused:

To borrow your own phrase, that is "one lopsided fecked up" line of reasoning. ;)

Actually the OO have a lot in common with the GAA. Both have featured together recently in a documentary regarding sectarian views and were featured jointly to promote both sides of the divide in the Smithsonian recently. I think the middle ground gets left out on these occasions

The OO also have issues with certain lodges honouring and promoting terroism.

Yes the exhibition is going on for a few months. However a friend of mine attended an event there a couple of weeks back that had the OO and the GAA representing opposite sides of the divide in Northern Ireland. There was also the tv programme that i mentioned
