We should push for full union with Britain. I could see Bandage’s loyal Wexford constituency returning two Conservative deputies.

I consider the Republic of Ireland to be Ireland. I really dont consider Northern Ireland as part of Ireland.
Northern Ireland is part of the UK as far as I am concerned. I know Northern Nationalists say they arent from Northern Ireland but the North of Ireland but I disagree. I also consider Glasgow Celtic to be a part of the UK and a British football club so maybe I’m insane.

So you wouldn’t consider that Stephen Ferris, Neil Lennon, Darren Clarke, Darron Gibson etc can call themselves Irish? Seems bizarre to me if that’s the case.
[quote=“larryduff”]Supporting Celic is different to me than supporting an EPL club. Haven’t heard Celtic fans putting on Scottish accents when they support the club as they are comftorbale in the knowledge that supporting Celtic as an Irish person is an expression of their identity. If you don’t understand that check out any of the interviews MON has given on the topic.

If you are referring to those myopic shite that MON was spouting at Xmas time then yes I listened to a bit and I almost vomited. Sometimes I dont know what to think of MON, he claims he is hard core Irish yet he accepts an honour from the Queen. I dont think he is most genuine person going to be honest.
I dont think I really want to get too much into this debate again about the Irishness of a Glasgow Celtic football club that supports the British Army be wearing a commemorative poppy. There is an incredibly deluded poster on this forum, Bandage, that claims supporting Glasgow Celtic as an Irish person is more an expression of his Irish identity that supporting the Irish national side. I cannot ever accept this insane argument. I have debated this point to death on here before.
Larry what Irish person for instance puts on a Liverpool accent when watching their side. I know I dont sound like Ozzy Osbourne when I’m screaming at Brad Friedel to get off his fucking line. I think that point is a bit ridiculous to be honest.

Fair few that I know anyway. Anyway answer the question do you think Clarke, MON, Lennon, Ferris, Darron Gibson, Ken Magginis, Wayne McCullough etc have a right to call themselves Irish?

You are no person to talk about Irishness seeing that you have more or less written off six counties of Ireland as being part of a foreign country.
They can call themselves what they like. The best of luck to them too. Their passport will say differently tho. A good few Northern ‘nationalists’ I have met have UK passports despite having the choice to have an Irish one. The ultimate act of hypocricy if you ask me.
All though considering Graham McDowell wore an orange pants last year on Orange day I will never support that cunt.
‘‘I know Northern Nationalists say they arent from Northern Ireland but the North of Ireland but I disagree’’
Thats about the stupidest thing I’ve ever read on here
I know northern nationalists who have no problem saying their from Northern Ireland but would maintain that they are as Irish as anyone from Clare or Wexford or anywhere else. And their right. What exactly is it that you disagree with?

So what you are saying is that McDowell is a cunt for displaying his heritage which you have just said that he has - him being part of the UK and all and unionist.
Also - there is an orange part of the tricolour as well.

Any Northern Irish person I have met with nationalist tendencies doesnt take too well to being told they are from Northern Ireland.
Bandage aside, you underestimate the level of republicanism in Wexford SS.

Erm doubt Neil Lennon has a British passport for instance. Also think for instance Ulster lads on Irish rugby team had as much pride as representing their country as anyone else. Find your attitude towards the north to be condescending o be honest.
Clearly you’ve not met very many so might be better advised popping a cork in it.
My sentiments exactly McGeady1916. This is something that should not even be discussed in jest.
There I was thinking Eoghan Harris had popped his clogs, only to realise my wishful thinking had been mixed up with Conor Cruise O’Brien’s death. Oh well, one down, one more to go.

Some twisted logic there from KIB.

McDowell is a cunt for showing solidarity with a barbaric sectarian conflict from hundreds of years ago. For a sportsman to display such brazen offence in a golf tournament being shown around the world is a disgrace imo.
There is fuck all difference between wearing a green trousers and an orange one in terms of Irishness. Both colours are equal parts of the flag which represents the 32 counties. I would have no problem with Orange marches being held in Dublin in an United Ireland - it is their heritage and they have a right to express it.
I despise the Orange order and it has no place in any civilised society.
Right - so when you support Ireland you blank out the orange part of the flag?
The orange order you clown. The orange part of the tricolour does not symbolise the orange order. Not all Unionists and Protestant are part of that sectarian symbol from the dark ages.
