WEARING a poppy[/QUOTE]
Quinn is a cunt.

That’s a compliment for him

Wexford’s Mick Fitzgerald is wearing one on channel 4

Father Murphy is rolling.

Will Shane Horgan be the only Irishman not to wear one on British TV this poppy season?

Who would he be?

Here’s the deal, if you had a grandad or great grandad , in the First World War or even second, I could maybe see wearing it as a personal thing. But to just wear it as kiss assery on the telly as an Irishman is see through.

Maybe being the operative word. Just because they were clearly simple or sadly misled, doesn’t mean that you, knowing the full facts and with clear 20/29 vision, make the same mistake as they.

Right. You would have to acknowledge that they had been duped into joining by various factors.

The Green Fields of France is still an amazing fuckin tune

I fall into this category and this is why I think that it’s a free* country and each to their own.

*apart from water

strongly disagree with the 1st bit mate, their forefathers were traitors, being proud of that is odd.

treachery is in these cunts blood so these folks arent to be trusted

its not free mate. 26/32’s are free and if your forefathers had their way we would all still be slaves

There is truth in all of that , but the vast majority would have been unwilling traitors. Similar to many of the free state army.

There was no conscription here. They all joined up of their own free will.

This is a very tiresome time of year for us normal folk who couldn’t give a tupenny fuck about this whole argle-bargle.

The English are absolutely painful about this, and then of course all the Rastoolers start frothing at the beak when anyone who’s irish wears one.

Fuck off the lot of ye.

Wear one, don’t wear one, just fuck off and do it or don’t do it in peace.

Every fuckin year. I hate the human race, hurry the fuck up Ebola.

Ya but many would have been coerced by the likes of Redmond, starvation, poverty and some clergy.

The Baba’s jersies all have a great big poppy on them here. The vast majority of these players would be from countries that were conquered by the empire so a lot of their ancestors would have been raped and murdered by British soldiers. It’s a very strange phenomenon.
