Can you just do it by surname or do you need more detailed insight ?

Who cares? They may be Catholic but are obviously not Nationalist.
If at first you don't succeed, then goto Plan B

Was wondering how these billboards of the players will go down in their home town/village. In particular, Niall McGinn's in Donaghmore.

...and Chris Baird, wherever he's from again.

Hard to know sometimes. I always assumed Philip Mulryne was from Protestant stock. Next thing I hear he's off to join the Priesthood!

Himself and Paul McVeigh were both underage players with Lamh Dhearg I believe.

Nationalist or not, an international cap adds a bit of bargaining power to your next club contract.  The likes of Boyce and McGinn were/are more than likely ROI supporters but felt the likelihood of a call up there was limited.

Ask them to say the Hail Mary as Gaeilge :D

That should be the second anthem to represent the Catholic players. Like that Irelands Call crap for the rugby.

Sammy Clingan sounds like a dyed in the wool non catholic yet he's a Falls Road taig.

Who gives a f**k!

I am going to support the north during these championships!

I never lived in the south and have far more in common with the northern prods than I ever did the southern Catholics.

I hope both do well but you can shove both national anthems up your arise, I have no use for anything that divides us as a people.

Up Armagh ya bastards.


Armagh, the one true love of a mans life.

I agree. I think.

ROI is number 1 by a road bowl mile (or 10) but I'll still cheer on our wee colony.

I don't know about their religious affiliation but these two (Baird and McGinn) look distinctly dissident during GSTQ.

Would a song like Wagon Wheel sung by Nathan Carter not be a more inclusive anthem ?
