I'm mystified as to what the 'attack' on the GAA is here. Then I remembered that Fearon isn't even a GAA man and sees OWC plots everywhere

I think its always worthwhile getting the point of view of those outside GAA circles. people need to stop looking upon them all as attacks but look at what the issues are. I dont think this is a case of attack here.


Agreed, this article is in no way "An attack on the GAA".

Anyone seen a NI shirt in a nationalist area so far?

Anyone think Windsor park is a nice place for a catholic/nationalist/republican to be as the waves of the sash and the billy boys roar out from the Kop?

I see NI tops everywhere. Can't say it bothers me in the slightest. After all, they are showing support for their team, so why would it.

I think that the point here is that you CAN wear a ni top in a Nationalist area, whereas God help you if you make the mistake of venturing into a unionist area wearing your club/county colours!
