England 13 - Ireland 19

[Covenent]

I know nothing about Rugby, but I can't the resist the chance to slag a Brit when they lose at their own sport!

[SpockBert]

egg chasing.....BOTHERED!

our own sport is football, we'd kick your ass at that

[n-gen]

hey, we might have lost that match,


but you live in ireland

What's a 'Religon' anyway? Something for the intelectually lazy eh?

Lazy enough to misspell the word for pun purposes, thats for sure

[Covenent]

When England won the Rugby world cup I'm sure you did'nt give a damn SpockBert.

If football is your own sport you would think you would be a better at it. Ireland did nearly as good as England in the last world cup, and for a country with 1 national stadium and not even a proper league I don't call that too shabby at all. Robbie Keane was the only player besides Ronaldo to score against Kahn in that world cup, and even last week Ireland showed their worth by holding Brazil to a draw.

Oh and get over 1966. :P

[nucleuz]

I did! The wallabies should have taken home the world cup!!

ha ha

where to begin...er...the egg chasing wc..yeah course I was crowing about that...we won and it was the world cup..had we lost the final I'd have been really upset! no really, I'd have been inconsolable for ooooh at least 2 mins

but this game weren't the world cup, what was it a friendly??

Mate, as a Spurs fan you don't have to convince me about Robbie Keane, he's my fave player at the club, I have his name on the back of my shirt. Big fan of him, Steve Carr...not so much Gary Doherty

yeah Ireland have got some good players (and with Sven's dull tactics, I still prefer watching them to England)but I'd still fancy England to win if the teams met.

But they won't meet in Portugal, cos you boys didn't qualify! (I did want you to, upset for Keano and co that they missed out)

Grow up covenent.

Your childish xenophobia won't make you any friends round here at FK.

By all means be happy that your national team won, but don't expect us to think of you as anything other than an idiot for your immature ramblings.

[Covenent]

It's just friendly slagging defuzz, I'm not trying to start some sort of petty international quarrel or something equally ridiculous. Thats the problem with joking on forums like this, there is always someone who gets the wrong end of the stick.

God forbid that anyone would ever post anything immature on these forums. In my many years here I have not seen one immature post, so why I felt the need to create this one I am not too sure.

If the truth be told I support England in footy matches as well (unless they play Ireland of course) as half of my family is English, and there are few things more impressive than watching Owen go on one of his runs.

Yes it was a friendly game SpockBert but thats still some result for us, it gives the team and country a real moral boost. After years of constant losing we finally seem to be getting results when it matters.

[defuzz]

OK Cov, fair enough.

I am happy to accept that the Irish were better players today but I dislike the whole attitude that so many have of hating teh English just for the hell of it.

Its a shame we had to lose at twickenham though, we had a record of something like 23 games un beaten at home. :-(

I bet the atmosphere in Dublin is fantastic tonight. Wish I was back in Temple Bar......

As do I. It's an attitude held by republican supporters, and then seeps into the rest of society as people fear being seen to be pro English in case it gets them into trouble. I've spoken against that attidude several times on these forums, I am not as ignorant as those people who have that attitude.

I'm sure Temple Bar was buzzing tonight, the match has been hyped for ages but today was actually one of my few days being away from there!

bloody hell

its only a bit of friendly banter mate!

I'm actually very fond of the Irish, but I still take the p*** no harm intended, sure its the same with Covenent here.

[defuzz]

OK OK spocky


I lived in Wales for 4 years and one of the things I hated was the attitude of some towards the english.

Yes we english ridicule the welsh now and a again, but what annoyed me was in a number of shops they would sell posters saying "I support two teams, Wales, and however is playing England", it might be just for a laugh but there were plenty of folk who really held this belief and hated the English for no other reason than that they were english.

On the other hand, the irish, who are the butt of all our "Englishman, Irish man Scotsman jokes" are the opposite. I lived in the fantastic city of dublin for a year and felt no animosity whatsoever.

(I obviously never met covenent though hehehehe)

I was even lucky enough to see England paly Ireland at landsdowne road, englan won but at the bars everyone was still friendly and happy.

Ok you didn't take in a thing I said at all then.

As I said before SpockBert It's just friendly slagging.

[gerbick]

I thought it was natural for all opposing teams to have fans that jeered each other like this?
