Leprechaun outfits

    I was watching the Premiership last night and I was absolutely cringing when I saw a lad dressed up as a leprechaun on his way into the Man Utd game in Old Trafford. Why do Irish lads have an obsession with these outfits when they go away? Do they realise they are a complete embarrassment?

    Speaking of gob****es dressed as Leprechauns that mad priest that interrupted the Formula 1 race and the Olympics was just on Britains Got Talent and he got through!!

    Yes he looked like a Leprechaun and he danced a jig.

    Neil Horan and I am 99% sure it was him. Cowell looked like he wanted to kill him but Morgan and Holden put him through. I suspect Morgan knew who he was and sensed a bit of publicity.

    For you? They probably don't care what you think

    For everyone? I don't think you can decide that..

    They only did so because they were too embarrased to turn up wearing a replica football jersey. More middle aged men should follow their example.

    They can wear what they like, if theyre having fun all the power to them.

    That's the law in the UK, all Irish people must dress as leprechauns to distinguish themselves

    Most people I see in Oirish green hats or costumes like that are not Irish.

    Look here, what proof do you have that they were Irish?

    Were the slurring their words?

    Maybe they are allergic to normal clothes .

    They could be Serbians auditioning for "Darby O'Gill and the little People"
    which is opening in manchester soon.

    Less of the generalisation please :mad:
