Suddenly remember their Irish roots have they? ;)
Jeez - there's no pleasing Eircom League fans ! Celtic get beratted because "they're not Irish - they're a British team", whilst Hibs get berrated for having ignored their Irishness ! They just can't win with us lot ! Doubtless in 10 years time if Hibs did magically gain a lot of Irish support, we'd all be back with the "they're not Irish, they're British" jibes !Quote:

I'd they might bring a good few fans over with them. Wanting to immerse themselves in the culture of our country no doubt :D
If they come third they'll be in the UEFA cup won't they?

Tell you what ... here is a map just to clear things up like !!
Thanks for your rudimentary geography lesson A Face. My profile at the top of each posting might have been a bit of a clue to the fact that I live in Britain, and should therefore have at least a vague notion of where everything is. But thanks again.... :rolleyes:Quote:

Hey ... dont mention it :D .... anywhere else you are rusty on, just giveme a shout !! ;)Quote:

I should hope not ... they'd lose !!Quote:

What about the Scottish teams who try to be OIrish at the expense of being Scottish, i mean aren't they the worst .... no pride, no back bone .... not representing the people who pay at the gates every second week, trying to give up their identity for another in a different country.... aren't they the worst !! No character ... thats whats wrong with them.Quote:
