In any case the way things are shaping up in the North, they may not have a team in a few years in any case.

As Derry based and very much a Republican without getting into the intricacies of all that I would largely agree with that. Unification is an inevitability, I think everyone deep down knows that - it has been since partition and the only surprise is the northern state has lasted this long.
There has been a lot of excited talk about unification post Brexit and it has probably brought it forward to a certain degree by opening up the line of conversation that was avoided generally since the GFA but the demographics aren’t quite right for the vote to carry.
They are getting there though.
Anyway not wishing to drag the thread further down that path as it’s about players but just to say I would be largely in agreement with that line of thought.Last edited by DCWA; 11/01/2022, 11:09 PM.Comment

Fair enough but the DUP aren’t exactly an attractive option and the current UK Government is hardly a model of good governance. Most of family live in the North and many would have been equivocal about a United Ireland even though they carry Irish passports, support the ROI team and vote SDLP. It’s the NHS, worries about potential loyalist violence and feeling that GFA gives them a sense of recognition within NI. Brexit has changed that view to some extent. There was a poll by Lord Ashcroft’s polling company in December that suggested 66% of people in NI now thought it would happen within 10 years.Comment
