That's funny, cause I always think anyone who gets het up about that should be crucified.
Why??
It just bugs me. I know there are rules there, but I don't see the harm in people using the flag for banners as long as there is nothing offensive in it. And I don't think there's enough crucifixion these days.
I changed put down cos I thought twas a bit strong tbf.
If you're going to get into putting down people for being morons you're getting into eugenics and social engineering and that and it's not really a discussion for foot.ie.
Writing slogans on the national flag is syptomatic of two things rampant in the Oirish support - Ingerlund aping (the writing on the flag in the first place) and mortifying paddywhackery (the writing of "funny" slogans)
"Davy Keogh Says Hello"
"Ah jaysus and begorrah, isn't Davy a gas man with his flag."
Not really no, he's a tosspot.
The Cavern Bar in Letterkenny. Half of the town here is plastered with tricolours and some bars are putting in ridiculous amounts of effort just for the Euros. This I thought was very good though.

Some serious arguments going around t'interweb about this. 'It's completely different when they're playing for England because we're meant to hate them then'. Quite funny really.Quote:

I was tempted to define what was in my view OK and not OK, but who's to judge? What to me is cool might to others be disrespectful. So I guess the only thing you can really do is a full ban or let people do what they want, and I tend towards the latter.
I know some of them are silly, but I like the way they reflect how support for the team comes from all over the country and diaspora and from many different clubs etc. I'm pretty sure many countries do it other than England, although maybe they started it.
He is Ireland's number one supporter dont you know!:pQuote:
