Well done Northern Ireland

[Barca Bear]

NI showed up Scotland for what they are. Bang average at best

Last nights game was identical to watching Clarkes Kilmarnock against us.
Or every team for that matter.

 

[Noddy]

Regardless of his age, FOS hasn't always been played at sporting events. It's a matter of fact, not conjecture.

He said during his time attending sporting events.

 

[auldyin]

I'd not, wouldn't boo something because plastic paddys have jumped onto it

Most Irish are decent and don't give a f*ck about Celtic. It's the plastic ones that are the problem.

I would agree with you apart from N.I. and the border areas in the ROI and bits of Cork

Yip. They plastic paddies that support RoI against Scotland are a joke.

 

[Johnny Cash]

Would you ?

Only time I’ve heard it being sung at a football game is when the vermin sing it during an old firm game. So haven’t heard it in a before the match national anthem setting tbh.

He did clarify that after his initial post and your dig.

I wouldn't boo any anthem, it's a respect thing. Boo supporter songs by all means or better still sing your own louder.

Hopefully X does its thing and he's identified. Looks like a hate crime to me by using religion as a means to upset others.

 

[Tangerine and blue]

I have no intention of winding anyone up, just gave an account of a game vs England from the perspective of a scotland fan. I do find it hilarious though that that makes me 'not a bear'. I will mull that over in my seat on Saturday.

Village and idiot spring to mind.

There was no dig.

 

[wee bud's pit boots]

Scotland played the roi at Hampden back in Feb 1987, in the Euro qualifiers.

The filth's directors were in the sellik end that night alongside the Irish supporters.

From memory, I think Mark Lawrenson scored the only goal of the game.

How bad have things gotten for NI if a 1-0 win against Scotland in a friendly is a "Great Result"?

 

[NeilFifeLoyal]

You are unlikely to be at hampden I would imagine. And, while I would vote no in a heartbeat tomorrow were there an indy ref and want Labour to oust the SNP, I have always only considered flower of scotland as my national anthem. Mainly because thats what has always been played at sporting events.

You can consider it all you want it’s not it’s as simple as that.

 

[bullen an la]

Only an insult if I’m telling lies and with your responses I’m pretty sure I’m not
Boo as part of an atmosphere depending where you are fucking hell

Maybe he supports st.mirren

They haven’t won here in 50 years so that’s pretty exceptional I would think

I’m just out of shot on that video him and his wee pal where also giving it the machine gun gestures during the game just got laughed at.

This is the scum that so called bears associate with at Scotland games

 

[ChildOfGoth]

That did not last long probably because hardly anyone knew the words apart from Da Da Da da etc

While it sounds simple it’s kinda tricky auldyin

 

[BanbridgeLoyal1990]

Apart from Connor Bradley its possibly the worst/least experienced Northern Ireland team we have had in the past 15 years

Very bad. Look at their team, they’ve an outstanding youth product in Bradley but apart from that. It’s made up of English championship and lower. Ffs Josh McGinnis came off the bench

 

[wee bud's pit boots]

Would the people on this forum boo the ROI anthem?

I wouldn't be at a football game involving them anyway, so it's a bit of a daft question for me.

My missus loves the six nations rugby stuff, Scotland obviously. If I'm in the living room and the irish are lining up I change the channel till it's all finished.

I don't know if that answers you're question.

I don't know what that has to do with people booing their own national anthem though?

 

[Cavanloyal]

I would agree with you apart from N.I. and the border areas in the ROI and bits of Cork

Also need to add parts of Dublin and Donegal as well, think Donegal has one of the biggest if not the biggest CSC’s outside Scotland

 

[ChildOfGoth]

FC Koln play Highland Cathedral before games and it sounds amazing. I wouldnt be against something like that instead.

Isn’t that a funeral tune ? Wonder what the backstory is quite interesting

Looks like Martin Compston to me. And the type of thing that little pape would do.

The Soldiers Song is not used at away or World Cup games

Well tbh Scotland have Porteous and ralston and this manager had a hard-on for O’Donnell and other such Kilmarnock grade players . In short , all comparable imo .

Not surprised. How can Scottish people support another country against Scotland?

I mentioned the border areas i forgot about some bits of Dublin

Or the scum that get totally ignored or laughed at.

Experienced players missing, a very young team, poor qualification results, media predictions of heavy defeat, best Scotland team for years etc etc

[Boabinho]

As soon as I saw this thread starting I knew it would turn into a bickerfest

 

[Cavanloyal]

Certainly the border areas are still hot enough, I live in ROI on the border, Donegal very big stronghold, they love the connection they have with ex players such as Bonner etc.
there is also a Donegal RSC though.

Still friends, anyway!!!

Some people have ancestry of course that’s a factor

Again it's the double standards.

We're all supposed to be English supporters, when this forum will provide proof again in the summer, nothing could be further from the truth.
.
Could they win the tourney? I don't know and care even less.

If they are eliminated, it supports my views that the so called self boasting greatest league in the world is held up by Sky money and Johnny Foreigner.

It's not a competition, I'll be paying much attention to, to be honest.

It's over 20 years since I was last at a Scotland game. But I still like to see them winning, and I'll be f*cked if a few tossers in a kilt are going to change that.

Armstrong, Adams, Dykes, Porteous, Henry...is this a hill you are wanting to die on?
Remember our own Ross McCausland would have been playing if not injured, is he very bad as well?

International qualifiers and friendlies bore me to tears too, but surely you like the major tournaments?

 

[muttley]

Its very sad that many Scots don't support the national side, even wanting them to lose in some cases, but the SFA are to blame for allowing Scotland games to be almost like SNP rallies. The national side should be for everyone, and not a very narrow brand of Scottish nationalism.

 

[fergie1959]

Singing a song about a battle that was fought more than seven hundred years ago? Cosplaying a nineteen seventies comedian? Not for me.

 

[wee bud's pit boots]

I think my last game was 1985, when Mark Hughes scored a screamer for Wales at Hampden.

I don't particularly want them to lose, but if they do, my lethargy is on a par with Arbroath's latest result.

However, that is different to how I view the SFA and Rangers hating filth who seem to be in the majority now, or most vociferous in supporting the national team.

Jack Hendry is so passive it’s ridiculous a man out of his time in football but again SC loves him I guess that’s what links them. Both of another time .

 

[Taverneeeeer]

You can consider it all you want it’s not it’s as simple as that.

It is for sporting events though mate and that is the only real interaction I have with National Anthems in that sense.

They play runrig as well. It was surreal. I think someone told me the back story when i was there but I was on a stag do, got pished and have clearly forgotten it!

Talking about stag do's.

I was at a Muslim one recently and the stripper got her face out for the lads.

 

[Midfield General]

Always been a Scotland fan and always will be hard as its been to get behind the team the last 10 years.At least there are more Rangers leaning players in and around the squad now.
However there are too many arseho.es in the support and in the end I was glad Northern Ireland got the result.
I would like to get back to the days when we had a good representation in the team and the fan base is predominantly Rangers.
Ime not going to let any tartan trannies or plastic mhanks chase me away.Scottish and British.
