It’s almost like you keep ignoring the fact it’s the citizens who play the game - not the administrators. Anyone born in the 32 can play for Ireland if they wish to, the same as rugby. The only difference is the footballera did not betray their Republican identity to do so.
Euro 2012
What about it ?
Can someone summarise the last 100 posts or so for me? Is it as simple as both our International Rugbyball and Soccerball teams are both shite?
Simpler even. But we love and loathe them in equal measures it seems.
I know you’re dumb and all but Jesus.
Have you any relatives who are members of diaspora? If you knocked someone up over in Oz and find out 20 years down the line you have a son, are you going to say your son has no right to consider himself Irish. For me it’s great to see the diaspora play for Ireland, many of them hold their Irish identity with far more pride than the mongtards who follow the rugby nonsense.
Keane walked out on his country before a world cup. He feigned injury so he avoid travelling to a crucial World Cup play off in order to play for Man Utd three days later at home to some cannon fodder. He’s a vile traitor and will be remembered by independent people as such, your sense of reverence to him outs you as an infantile clown.
1/3 on Betfair, Argentina plus 12.5 points. Lovely Jubbly.
Yesterday’s game. Made the West Brit Official Unionist Phil Coulter song exit even more sweet.
My sons will be declaring for Australia pending their continued participation in the Asian zone World Cup qualifiers. Aim high.
Ewan McKenna really has the rugby crowd riled up on Twitter.
Citizens of a 26 county Republic. Sorry mate.
And I’m pretty sure they did;
They voted to re-name the Football Association of Ireland and to confine their jurisdiction to the 26 Counties. Thus was born the Football Association of the Irish Free State.
That’s a clamping.
The great lie of the 1990 World Cup was the “diaspora” to make ourselves feel better that we produced very few of these players.
Thank God the Irish went so close, avoiding that French humiliation.
Incredible Scenes:
How about you stay on point for once. You keep referring to associations and administrators when the crux of the matter is ANYONE born in the 32 can play for Ireland if they want to. It is a 32 county representative de facto. Why do you keep failing to acknowledge this fact?
If ANYONE born in the 32 is entitled to play for Ireland as a basic human right then why are you confining it to a 26 county basis?
His pot belly is so cute.
