Excellent news. Very unlike a judge to make a sensible decision.

You have Two nationalities by birth, like it or not.
One nationality, the UK one allows you to play for NI
The Irish nationality allows you to play for the Republic.
His Irish nationality entitles him to jack shit in Northern Ireland.
He can play for NI because he is an UK national.
He is a UK national by birth.
He can use his Irish passport for ID purposes.
Does nobody know the constitutional status of NI ?
The player can choose two associations because he has 2 nationalities not because he has one nationality.
Quote from: Main Street on June 04, 2008, 02:20:07 PMFantastic response!! If you agree with Mooretwin, then why have you been arguing the exact opposite on this thread?Quote from: SammyG on June 04, 2008, 01:48:14 PMGo back to the OWC and get your FIFA statute lessons from that Moore lad.
Christ you don't logon for a few days and the world caves in.
I love reading main street's posts, he should get himself a job as a spin doctor, the way he cuts and chops certain paragraphs to suit his argument and leaves out the bits he doesn't like/doesn't understand. FIFA have made no exceptions/special cases for the FAI and they must abide by the same rules as everybody else,
Article 15 is irrelevant. The players either have a nationality which entitles them to represent more than one FA (so article 16 applies) or they have dual UK/RoI nationality in which case the dual nationality rules apply (can't imagine there are too many of these).
It is very clear and the only people muddying the waters are trolls like MS.
The guy has tried hard to reason with you.
Is there really a need to spread your shite all over the world.

Quote from: Donagh on May 28, 2008, 02:35:39 PMInteresting so you're not just a cultural analyst but also a mind-reader.
so can be forgiven for not know much about the aspects of Irish culture and society that are mentioned. As for those referred to in the thread title, they're telling lies. They may want you (and more importantly their neighbors) to think they are good White Anglo Saxon Protestants, untainted by any influence from the Papish Irish, but we know rightly they have the RTE aerials hidden in the attic and that's Pat Kenney they're watching behind those curtains.

Janey Mac! Only nifan has joined in.
Where is EG and gweltyah and SammyG?
I thought this thread would be a magnet for the OWC lads.

Excellent, glad you cleared that up.
Many GAA clubs act like commercial entities too, don't you get that or does it not suit your agenda?
No, there's rules against what's played on the pitches - no rules against what rents out premises for the functions.

Paisley has never used the term Northern Ireland (to my knowledge), he always talks about either Ulster or North of Ireland.

Not fair having DC's ranking points drop so drastically in the last year, especially having a team which finished third in the first division ahead of them?? Stupid
Also puts their hopes of expanding the stadium in jeapordy, whats the point of having a load of emtpy seats/terrraces for an intermediate club?

Has anyone noticed the change in Ian's language lately?
On his last First Minister's Questions on Monday, he said that there has been big changes in "this part of Ireland".
And tonight on the news he said "north of Ireland".
Probably nothing, but it's not the usual stuff I'm used to hearing from the big man.

Quote from: Main Street on May 16, 2008, 10:39:14 PMWhen you say brain dead I presume you're talking about the type of person who can comment on something without actually bothering to read it, a bit like yourself in fact.Quote from: SammyG on May 16, 2008, 05:02:35 PMYes you did mention Celtic in reference to Tony going on about the Glasgow riots by Rangers fans.
[
FFS this is getting silly now. I DID NOT MENTION CELTIC Tony did and I replied. The well behaved Celtic fans are obviously not the same as the hooligan Rangers fans they are the same as the tens of thousands of well behaved Rangers fans. However the hooligan Celtic fans are the same as hooligan Rangers fans.
Hope that is clear enough for even your tiny brain to understand.
You wrote
"Two sides of the same shitty coin, always have been and always will be a minority in both Celtic and Rangers support who are scum"
No evidence to support, no arrest count. no police statements. no bbc television pictures, no media attention. in fact Celtic fans behaviour are of the highest standards in soccer and have received fulsome praise from Police chiefs/media /fans all around the world whereas Rangers in general have an intense scum element everpresent.
No comparison really, even a braindead windup troll like should get that point

Quote from: pintsofguinness on May 16, 2008, 08:43:48 PMQuote from: iluvni on May 16, 2008, 08:36:31 PMIt's not up to the GAA to name clubs, it's up to the people who establish them.
When the GAA take the bull by the horns and ensures clubs arent named after the likes of Kevin Lynch, perhaps then there will be much less reluctance to see gaelic footbal or hurling in state schools.
