Loughgall has always looked like the one to go to. A place that just resonates with the history of Ireland and where the Orange Order was founded in 1795.
There was a documentary there a few years where Brian O’Driscolll was up in Loughgall for the big day. It looked like a terrific family day out. Drico got a great welcome from brethern.
Is it the responsibility of the GAA to address erroneous notions that are based on ignorance and sectarianism? I’ve been to hundreds of gaa matches ‘up north’. Once a marching band played the rifles of the ira, and i saw collections for prisoners a few times- never inside the grounds.
You regularly hear the likes of jim allister coming out with that ira at play rubbish. Even he doesn’t believe it, it’s just trying to stir up hatred and bigotry.
It’s sad that the heroic efforts of gaa volunteers are sneered at by the likes of yourself. It wasn’t easy, or safe

A quick piece of rudimentary internetting reveals that @Locke has referred to miles on 248 occasions while referencing kilometers only twice. The hun bastard.

Several posters here including at least one of the posters feigning offence at messages on 12th bonfires have regularly exclaimed their hatred of Roman Catholicism.
There’s a very strong case to be made for the banning of these 11th bonfires. It’s really just an outlet for yobs to engage in anti social behaviour in deprived working class estates.
Today is what the Glorious 12th is all about. Brethren out in the parades in their finest, to celebrate their faith and culture.
