What? A whining Nordie?

[Benny Sweeney]

A brilliant article in the Irish Independent. People might not like the Journalist but he has hit the nail on the head with this one.

Well, have you stopped laughing yet?

I am referring, of course, to the sublime and thoroughly hilarious spat between Armagh and the Republic of Ireland.

And proving that nobody does self-righteous whingeing quite like Northerners -- only Scousers could give them a run for their money when it comes to this -- they claimed that the sight of some Laois players singing 'God Save The Queen' and referring to the Armagh players as "British Bastards" was "provocation in the extreme"

.

One Sunday afternoon, Londonderry were the visiting team and when Shels scored the visiting fans turned on me and started to call me "a Free State bastard".

Does that mean I was racially abused?

So Free Staters don't whine at all??

Pat Spillane . . . that is all!

Ian O'Doherty: One of the main reasons I stopped reading the independent.

Even before I got to the link I knew Ian Doherty had written it.  Has nothing good to say about anything.

Never mind who the Journalist is, his points are perfectly valid.

His points are completly negated by the fact that no team by the name of Londonderry have played Shelbourne in his lifetime. Once a **** always a ****.

He obviously meant Derry City FC.

His points are in no way valid and suggesting they are is WUMmery of the highest order.

No, not at all. I am Peter Bolland according to most on here.

To be serious I really agreed with this point he made

Yup, taking the piss out of some Brits is now seen as an act of vile racism rather than ... just taking the piss out of some Brits.

Shouts of racism from Armagh were quite pathetic

Just watched a clip of this fat fool on youtube. I would say the reason he is so angry is that he is sexually frustrated.
