While we're here, do you fancy a job at the Northern Ireland Office in Belfast brokering the next moves in the peace process? I'm guessing it would be - only slightly, admittedly - easier than gaining consensus on this board as to Celtic's status... ;)

Lopez, you have my curiosity aroused. I see you're in Hertfordshire - whereabouts? I spent my yoof in Watford and went to school in Rickmansworth - are either familiar to you?Quote:

Perhaps, but it was also the case of other employees of Rangers at least until the eightiesQuote:

Rangers are discussed less often because fewer people - perhaps you and a couple of others - are willing to criticize them (unlike Celtic). My suggestion that many posters on the site continue to call Republic fans from the six counties as 'plastics' is true.Quote:

Exactly!! Would you agree - in the name of peace - with that Connor?Quote:

While youse are in and around Celtic and Liverpool,can anyone enlighten me on why Celtic sing 'You'll never walk alone'?Some people have said that the Celts sung it first but this can't be true can it?
Not sure why Celtic sing it but Liverpool sang it first, there is a recording of the Kop singing it in, i think, 1962/63.
Don't think Rangers discriminated on nationality, only on religion... Also (and I open to correction here) didn't Rangers only implement the non-catholic policy in the 1930's ish (Thought I'd heard that before but could be way off the mark)....Quote:

I'd say if you're link to Ireland stretches back to 1887(?) then you links would be tenuous - the equivalent of some 6th generation "I've got Irish roots" T shirt wearing yank..... Sure if a players links were that far back they wouldn't qualify for the national team....Quote:

Fergies claims re: his wife are extremely tenuous. Fergie wasnt even 4th choice striker at Rangers. In the one good season (appearances wise) at Ibrox the top two strikers had long term injuries (as far as i remember reading somewhere).
Wasnt it quite recently that the first non-Catholic got a seat on the Board at Celtic??

It was almost impossible for anyone to get a seat on the Celtic board who wasn't a member of the families that owned the club,,Fergus changed all that.Quote:

Though the difference is that u had no choice in where u were born. In Celtics case they built the stable and decided to live it. Probably Celtic are zebras, they look like a horse, they were born in a stable but there is just something different about them!:D

YNWA is in fact a Rodgers and Hammerstein composition, and was written in 1945 for the musical Carousel. Several books have reported (including at least two histories of Celtic that I've read) that this was sung from the late-1950s onwards by the occupants of the Jungle at Parkhead, in other words, a few years before Gerry and the Pacemakers released their cover version in 1963.Quote:

From your descriptions, my father identified Mick Reilly, Peter Corcoran and John Meehan. He wasn't entirely certain about Meehan, but your description of Corcoran was on the nail. Enough said.

There were indeed five 1Gs - Chris Hartford the last. I was thinking about him on this thread - we have to keep some of this to football or Mr. Moderater may well quite rightly chuck us off - because he was a CofI Dubliner (father was a vicar or something higher) and although he went to watch Ireland in rugby and the 76 and 80 footie games at Wembley, was a Rangers supporter - nothing serious, just if anyone asked him his views on the old firm. Classic! Got the sack in the end through the drink, after being grassed up by this Scot, an ex-screw at the Maze.
The old boy will be :o when I mention Pascal Flaherty as they were really good friends, and he's evidently forgotten all about him! He did indeed live in Croxley and his kids went to the same primary school as my sister. In fact, Pascal was due to give me driving lessons when I turned 17 (a long time ago now), but for some reason it never quite happened.Quote:

I'm interested on your anecdote about Chris Hartford from the footballing aspect, as the question about Rangers support in the Republic is one that rears its head from time to time on the Celtic message boards. There is talk of a Union flag flying at Rangers home games with "Dublin Loyal" embroidered on it. One fairly well-known case is that of Alan Maybury, the Hearts and sometime Ireland full-back, who grew up in Dublin and followed Rangers as a boy. Any others spring to mind, people?
:D PP
Chris, as I stated , was Protestant, and despite the suggestion that he was therefore led by this to 'support' Rangers, he was anything less of an Irishman nor a bigot. Personally I have no probs with Irish people supporting Rangers. There are plenty people with no connection with either RC nor Ireland that support Celtic. There is a web site of the Dublin RSC, although by tommorrow, the banshees will be disturbed and there may well be all number of curses laid down on this bunch on this thread.:eek: BTW, there is a passionate Celtic supporter, friend of both mine and Duncan Gardner, and poster on this forum that is CofI, so it isn't always down to religion.Quote:

I agree, and no inference was drawn about the correlation between Chris's religion, the club he followed, and certainly not about anything else like politics. :eek: I know plenty of Tims who profess no religion and plenty more from Protestant and Dissenter traditions; for these bhoys and ghirls, just as for myself, it's all about the football.

I went to the website you mentioned above, and apart from it being in need of updating, it's written with a great sense of humour and is very entertaining. I've now also seen the famous "Dublin Loyal" flag. More power to them all, so long as they're content with second place in perpetuity. ;)

I've been observing but have resisted the urge to post up to now. This whole thing of "irishness" is a bit of a red herring as far as i'm concerned. Most people who are born in Ireland would consider themselves Irish, but there are people born in plenty of other places who are entitled to call themselves Irish too. For me, Irishness can be defined as someone knowing what it is to be Irish. its not about having a wolfe tones cd or a celtic jersey, its about not feeling out of place when you're among other Irish people. Take the Ireland team now- Kevin Kilbane was born in England, yet he lines up in Landsdowne, sings the anthem and gives 100%. Clinton Morrison on the other hand makes pathetic and lame gags about drinking guinness.
As for the whole Celtic thing- I consider myself a Celtic fan, insofar as I look out for their results. This is because i am a big fan of Martin O'Neill not because I think I'm showing solidarity with knuckle dragging neanderthals who drag this country's reputation thru the mud. What I would say is that there's no problem being a Celtic fan if its for the right reason- i.e. Anything other than the emabrassingly childish "cos they're Irish. What are you? A ****in hun?" proferred by barstoolers up and down the country. I have no objection to any real football fan supporting any team, be it rangers, celtic, bARSElona, man utd, linfield- whoever. The people I object to are the people who hijack a club for other purposes and think they have the right to strut around having a go off others over who they support. Real football fans respect each other and respect people's right to support whoever they want.
that would be appalling reason to support the greatest team in the world :)

but in the pub last night some friends of mine who were shouting for Rangers against Utd were called "Protestant *******s" by a group of Celtic-shirted men.
Kenny Dalglish, Danny McGrain, Murdo MacLeod, Bertie Peacock, John Thomson, Bobby Collins, Bertie Auld, Willie Wallace, Ronnie Simpson, Tommy Gemmell and of course Jock Stein were all "Protestant *******s" too. And some of them were Rangers fans. Celtic are a proud non-sectarian club or so some people say.:confused:Quote:

and get this for stupidity - a young lad at work who "supports" Man Utd and Celtic - didn't know about Ferguson's connection with Rangers until this week - and now since he heard that Ferguson once played for Rangers - has decided to stop following Man Utd.
he also agrees with the booing of Rangers players in Lansdowne and thinks anyone who doesn't like Celtic is "not really an Irishman"
:rolleyes:
As a Celtic fan, that's not something I'm proud of. There's plenty of nastiness and bile, much of which is sectarian and racist, exchanged between "supporters" of both teams. However, I must again state that we really aren't all like that.Quote:

I watched an interesting interview with a senior Black police officer on television here in London last night. He made the point that anyone coming across racist/sectarian acts of hatred who subsequently fail to confront the perpetrators are in effect condoning their actions. I understand the potential effects of adopting such a policy (having once myself been turned on when trying to do something similar), but if only more people would or could tackle such occurrences head-on, they'd subside in number and in time.
I don't want my kids growing up in a society where people are persecuted for their skin colour, culture, beliefs or even the football team they follow. Call me an idealist, but the alternative is resignation and acceptance, and that just won't do.

Extreme GAA fans who supported the ban once made the argument that certain "foreign games" weren't truly Irish. By that Celtic fan's logic those GAA people weren't truly Irish either because supporters of the GAA ban were unlikely to be supporting a team playing the foreign game. And could he be a true patriotic Irishman, supporting a foreign game. Is anybody really an Irishman?Quote:

:confused:
This is at the core of what I personally dislike about Celtic. This minority - the size of which is hard to say - that sees its rival fans in purely religious terms. I think I mentioned on another thread about the Celtic 'fan' on a train between probably Germany's two most Catholic cities (Stuttgart and Munich) who spotted a bloke with a football shirt from Germany's major Catholic city (Bayern Munich) and declared in his presence: 'I smell a Prod.' Perhaps nlgbbbblth, your workmate will grow out of this stupidity, but for me, I've had a bellyful of it at my age.
But hey, just when you think that it's all Celtic, you get a wake up call. In work this morning and my Rangers supporting boss (someone I've always liked) starts complaining about his relief (bloke from Coleraine) who just happens to be Man U. Now I personally couldn't give un pajo de mono who the cono won last night, but this bloke asks me, straight faced and knowing my background: 'How can a Prod support that team (Man U)?'
'I smell a Prod.' Perhaps nlgbbbblth, your workmate will grow out of this stupidity, but for me, I've had a bellyful of it at my age.
'How can a Prod support that team (Man U)?'
Now i am just getting damn confused!!! I mean i am no fan of the team from the Theatre of Nighmares but this one is going to far!!!
As for the barstool brigade, they r just too funny. When I first came to Ireland I went into a pub and Celtic v Rangers where on the t.v. so i settled in to watch it. within 5 mins i was just amazed by the abuse shouted at the t.v. I must point out that i was a newly arrived 11 year old who wouldnt have been the same religion as the men shouting the abuse - it was quite an eye opener. Now i am sure that if i went into a Rangers bar I would have felt the exact same way about the abuse being shouted.
The problem is the Celtic barstool brigade in Ireland are quite dangerous. If u remember the man on the Prime Time special on RTE a couple of weeks ago who said that he didnt hate Protestants as long as they kept their head down but he did hate Rangers fans - he is not an exception. I have a number of Celtic supporting mates in Glasgow who are just amazed and appalled when they come to Ireland and hear the comments of fellow Celtic fans.
(end of rant...... apologies for length!)
There's always been a strong Catholic connection at Man U though. They considered calling themselves Manchester Celtic before settling on their present name which was suggested by their Italian Catholic groundsman Louis Rocca.Quote:
Originally posted by lopez

Rocca was known as the "Father of United" and used a network of Catholic priests across England to scout for players. All their managers since 1945 have been Catholic (Busby, McGuinness, O'Farrell, Docherty and Sexton) except the last two, Fergusson and Atkinson.
Up to very recently they had a Catholic chaplain. Also Paul Scholes, Ryan Giggs, Neville brothers and Darren Fletcher in the current side all come from Catholic backgrounds. Having said that, there are probably more Catholics playing for Rangers than United at the moment. :D
Also United have strong Ulster Protestant connections if you take into account George Best, Sammy McIlroy, Harry Gregg,Jimmy Nicholl, Norman Whiteside and few more others. I've also heard it argued that Man Utd are a Protestant Loyalist club.

Thing is there is an assumption that certain clubs in England are Catholic and Protestant, which doesn't actually exist. My first visit to Old Trafford was in 1984 for a Celtic game (Lou Macari's testimonial), and there were plenty of Rangers fans out that day spoiling for a fight. Then try telling Kevin Kennedy or the Gallagher Brothers that they're following the wrong team. However, Man U has had a more than passing flirtation with RCs (including English ones such as Dave Sexton) and there was a RUMOUR in the early eighties, UNSUBSTANTIATED ANYWHERE ELSE, so lawyers watching please calm down, that two Irish players (one from the North, another from the South) had a training pitch bust up over the hunger strike of 1981, which apparently led to the former leaving the club.
In Liverpool there is LFC (Protestant) and Everton (RC)...or is it the other way round? Yet the support of both clubs is mixed. I don't follow English club football, but in London I know that the perception that Arsenal are Paddies, Chelsea are Huns, and Spurs are Yids, is cojones. Out in Croatia in 1999 a local was talking to me and some mates and suggested that Arsenal were the RC team in London with Chelsea the Prods. There wasn't an Arsenal supporter amongst us but there was one Chelsea fan. That day I went to OT, I went up with a load of 2G Chelsea fans; The few Jews I've known have all supported Arsenal; and I've seen a number of fascists at White Hart Lane.
PP, thanks mate. Even Winston Silcott went inside after me and came out before!;)
Some quality sidestepping of the libel laws there by the lad Davros ;)
Dav: My own 'deep throat' said otherwise. I've heard the story about Dave McCreery -who is the player I presume your talking about - from the Ziggy Pop lookalike we all love. Apparently he had a paramilitary brother, but otherwise got on well with papists and 'Mexicans.'
DG: You're right about libel. The story was a rumour so excuse the landmine avoiding. One player became manager of NI. The other played to a high standard in another sport before turning to the garrison game - he also went to your alma mater. Does this help?
So glad it wasn't the other one- my cousin's wife's aunt is married to one of their uncles, I think.
