I actually think it's nice to see GAA or LOI jerseys the night before the game itself. What could be more Irish? Match days should be about Irish shirts only. There's a more subtle thing in the Celtic shirt (I think it portrays the assumption that Ireland and Celtic are interchangeable) but as someone who once wore a green Panathanaikos shirt to a game (Amsterdam) because I had lent out my Irish shirt I'm not one to talk! I happen to follow Celtic by the way. I used to be a real fascist about things like not wearing Irish rugby shirts to football games, but I've mellowed on that count now.:) I suppose it just shows how this issue is open to personal opinion. I can't argue with the way Mayo Bhoy makes his point - the general sentiment & the idea of Celtic shirt on day before game but not on match day
Re-the media, I bought the international edition of the IT today and, to my pleasant surprise, the only football feature was a piece by Paul Buttner on Conor Clifford's progress at Chelsea. More of the same please!
