I think if it was the Northern or England team or England saying something certain people find offensive we be giving it, this just move on, the same attitude with violence in fball, nothing to see, move on, it reoccur again due to these attitudes. See no more plainly that flags on bonfires each year. You can't beat Stupid or sticking u head in the sand.

Social media has been ramped up in the space of an hour on FB I'm not on any other social media bar here so its bound to be going crazy on the cesspit that is Twitter

I gave up Twitter about 4 years ago when I realised that i was arguing with someone i didn't know about something I didn't really care about at 11:45pm ???

Pretty straightforward apology, offering no excuses, and well handled.  Then a bit of tansplaining about Irish history!...but again she coped well with it. :D

It's a really daft thing to sing and even worse to post it on social media without realising the ramifications.

It does highlight the lack of self-awareness that a lot of Irish people have around tribal politics.

After initially thinking it was embarrassing, now I'm going the other way and thinking f**k them. They're so out of touch with reality. Sing it to f**k girls

They shouldn't have sang it. Whoever posted it from the dressing room needs a serious talking too, what did they think would happen? Cracking tune though.

The news cycle will have moved on tomorrow. They will still be in the World Cup.

Aye but a UI has been put back a generation because of them.

The UK economy is failing faster than the level of outrage is growing so the net effect on the UI is overall positive

I see the narrative is set that Celtic symphony is a pro IRA song. I wish someone would correct them that it's a Celtic song, it references 'the ra' but it's not a republican song

Sky Interview was a deplorable piece of ignorant Brit Mansplaining shite and feels like the FAI put her in that situation to please a sponsor. The FAI should cancel the Sky sponsorship if they had any integrity.
