Back to Roy Keane. Weren't Linfield going to sue him because of inaccurate comments he made about their anti-Catholic policies.
I read on the OWC (NI) that he was a Catholic. Could be wrong though. But Baird certainly sounds like a "Presbyterian" surname. Wasn't Alan Kernaghan a Linfield supporter?Originally Posted by Plastic Paddy

He got the year they stopped practicing it wrong. Very libelous!Originally Posted by Paddy Ramone

I think Kerr shold approach all prospective players regardless of religion or political persuasion. Don't want anyone suggesting that he's discriminating.Originally Posted by Plastic Paddy

Nice one, Lopez. But didn't a few Catholics play for them back in the late 40's and early 50's.Originally Posted by lopez
Yeah I think one of the Republic internationals of the era, Davy something or other, played for them. Like with Alex Stevenson of Rangers, I'm not altogether sure if he was RC though. Con Martin definitely played for Glentoran though I don't think they ever had a bar on RCs.Originally Posted by Paddy Ramone
As for the Linfield fan following Ireland?Not that Nesbitt bloke who's been shagging the 17 year old call girl then going home to tell how much he loves his wife.

Davy Walsh was his name and he was from Waterford and he was Catholic. Alex Stevenson was a Protestant according to a book I read on the history of the Irish international side.Originally Posted by lopez
Is it KM? Can't see him having 'words' with anyone he's so laid back. Only person I can think of as a. he's a product of 'love across the political divide' and b. he was shown in the dying minutes of the Spain game after the equaliser, but I'm sure he's not Linfield.Originally Posted by davros

I see! Dav, you'd be able to get a ganjad up, pacifist-Bhuddist into an argument.Originally Posted by davros
Have you ever thought about tranquilisers?
Back to K, he was telling me in Glasgow that he got a few nasty threats over his face being on TV in an Ireland shirt. Still, I'm sure as ourweefriends would say, 'it was only a bit o' craic!'![]()
