derry & Cliftonville

**sylvo** · 15/02/2004, 10:30 PM

chill out fella's, if yer gonna argue @ least argue over something like a racehorse, I've been told that's the in thing to row about @ the moment.

**BannsideBoy** · 16/02/2004, 12:20 AM

you prove my point even more

**BannsideBoy** · 16/02/2004, 12:27 AM

As for Belfast Celtic reforming, never gonna happen.

Clintonville and Derry city are two proud clubs, why would a Derry fan travel to Belfast for a home game?????. Belfast Celtic are now immortalised, let them keep their legend intact. Even Donegal Celtic reforming isn't an option as it has its own tradition now.

Now let�s see if davros can dissect this in the usual anti-unionist xenophobia that we are accustomed too.

Sylvo. Agreed. I love your badge, makes me think of that horse's head scene in the Godfather. Or was it the French Connection?

Liam. Also agreed. Nothing wrong with off-topics, but when they develop into little more than tit-for-that, private email's better. I'm sure my multi-lingual amigo Lopez would concur.

Everyone. Snide references to others' spelling and typography are a bit silly, eh? Particularly when also a hostage to fortune. Shall we agree to decommissioning them?

Bring on the Norse!

BB. Your post ratio of .5 posts per day to my .84 is a better guide than post numbers. Not bad for a NI fan on a RoI site until you see DG's amazing .85 ppd.

DG. I concur.

Sylvo. Do you reckon it was a racehorse that waylaid you last week? Shergar Burgers were all the rage in '83.

Liam & BB: Belfast Celtic reforming would make no sense as Belfast (like Dublin) seems top heavy with teams. But I still think that Donegal Celtic should take the 'Belfast' name and whoever it is holding the rights is being a bit of a dog in the manger type. Donegal Celtic have been around long enough to have a history but the name does suggest that the team plays in Buncrana or Lifford.

**BannsideBoy** · 16/02/2004, 12:10 PM

we'll agree on that point then

how ever the 'Donegal' in the name does not refer to the county per say, but to the street names around the area of west belfast were donegal celtic play, these were named after the areas that the migrants coming into belfast came from, so continuing their own herritage.

Incidently it was my impression from the fact that a Coleraine fc badge is available as a symbol to the left, that this site is a 'football on this island' site and not exclusively R.o.I., but if you want to hound me off this site for stating my opinions then that is a sad reflection on yourself.

Come on now lad's chill out.

DG funny enough when they first came up with the badge I thought the very same thing. It was indeed the godfather, it was the scene where Tom Hagen played by Robert Duvall went to hollywood to put a bit of pressure on the director who would'nt give the part in a movie to Vito Corleone's godson and when he said no he woke up with his beloved horse, head only though.
Dg if yer think the badge is cool then you should join me and Lopez in the pilgramige to station road Newbridge or as i call it the stadio via stazionie we're going to plan when the fixture's are published to see Ireland's newest team.
Lopez i don't know what the hell waylaid me, even the docter's were confused, I think it could be a case for Maulder and Scully. But still the docter's done me a favour and signed us off, so i can further my recovery @ lansdowne on wednesday night.

No, no, no!

My point is that the site is mainly RoI, not that it doesn't cover the North. And don't start that chip-on-me-shoulder cojones. I'm not trying to hound you off here, just because I've engaged a few Northerners for 1. Publishing a pack of lies on a third rate forum about the FAI (if he said they were a bunch of two-bit morons I might have agreed) . 2. Coming on here and accusing me of reading this paper and that paper and having done this tour and that tour. 3. Calling me a bigot (we'll leave the homosexual slurs alone as I'm always of the opinion that you shouldn't knock what you haven't tried) 4. Calling me a fascist. As my esteemed friend Sylvo says: Chill.

all this talk about belfast celtic is a fantastical and idealist notion, if it were the case would you rename linfield belfast rangers, i doubt it.

Would it make any difference?
