Disappointing to see Eduardo dive like that. Arsenal are a good footballing team but to have to resort to those tactics (not forgetting a fair few dives in the first leg) takes the gloss off any win.

Respect - thats a joke.

Celtic being comprehsivly outplayed but it might have been different only for that act of sheer cheating from Eduardo... it is a scandal what he done and if UEFA were serious about cutting this out of the game, he would be handed a match ban for a game or two but we all know that won't happen....
No doubt Wenger will say "I didn't see it"....

I find it funny that the arsenal players wear the word "respect" on their jerseys. If theres such a thing as karma Eduardo will break his leg again.

Unless a significant number of the Ulster British can be convinced that a united Ireland is worth trying, it's a non starter.

We can start with you first and see if your pals follow

overhyped nonsense

No the whole point of this thread is that it is an attempt by you to discredit the IFA,  NI team and all its fans etc, by a mixture of tribal rant, propaganda and outright lies.

Lies?
So you're saying that the 6 county statelet fans are NOT sectarian and the IFA have clamped down on them?

I should have been more specific and said football 

Now excuse me while I go and spit like a loyalist at the general public....

It's quite simple, really. You object to the whole concept of the NI team, on the basis that you object to what you assume to be the politics of some of its fans. Yet you proudly support another team, a section of whose supporters are known for espousing opinions on religion and politics etc which are a sight more objectionable.
And just so as there be no misunderstanding, that is not a criticism of Celtic FC, since there is an obvious limit as to how much they might be expected to answer for people who latch onto the club.
Rather, it is a direct criticism of you and your rank hypocrisy.
But hey, you go on making that sort of claim - no doubt you think it clever, but it only reduces your credibility to somewhere below zero.  

dont forget those Rangers FC chaps....good lad.

For once I agree.  Play the only Politcally representative anthem and play absolutely nothing and just get on with the game.  Well done Carribear, you know it makes sense 

I'm sure they're be a little tear in your eye as you're watching the rugby lads being presented to the Irish president Gregory Campbell in 2020 with Amhrann Na Bhfiann being played in the background

If only Waterford Crystal would have stayed off the drugs we'd have that 2002 gold.

Supposedlt Ireland as a whole. Does it badly though.

Why the need for a second anthem then?

Different and irrelevant argument / question to this thread.  It's been done many times.  Search the board and you'll get the general view from all sides and none.

If its for ireland they can ditch that awful 'irelands call' then and just play the real anthem only.

The Northern Ireland team isn't "supposed to represent both traditions".

It's there to represent Northern Ireland.

ALL of the people or SOME of the people?

the 6 county statelet team

Reality must really hurt you.

Just calling it what it is

Still don't see why Celtic is being equated with the 6 county statelet team. Why isnt Rangers being thrown in there if that was the case?


The big difference lest some of our 'GAA readers' forget is that the 6 county statelet team is supposed to represent both traditions. Rangers and Celtic will never do the same due to their history.

I could present many soccer fans here from my community who have never set foot in Windsor Park and wouldn't to save their lives.

Their lives would probably be in danger if they did set foot in that sectarian cesspit.

to gnevin and maguire - if you don't like the GAA why do you bother being members of the organisation(or interested)? You wouldnt be missed

When did I say I didn't like the GAA? Or imply this?
And i'm sure the Association would be honoured to have you as its spokesperson.

I'll hopefully make president someday. That'll get a few of you jumping.
