    other then that...there's not a lot to be proud of... Our amazing drunken stereotype that we strive so much to live up to?

    Not something to be proud about in the grand scheme of things. It's is just a game after all.

    To be fair, we're a small nation and small nations tend to be **** at most stuff. The only problem with Ireland is we've convinced ourselves that we're world leaders in everything we do, regardless of how bad we are, for some reason.

    Why are you proud of Ireland, anything during the last 20 years or simply anything that your are proud of.
    Maybe ask us in 20 years times - we might think of something :D

    I am proud to be Irish because despite our "difficult" past with the suffering and heartache, Ireland, through sheer hard work and fortitude picked itself up of its knees and educated itself so that now we can hold our heads up and feel proud of how far we have come and how well educated, both us and our children are.

    I am proud to be Irish as despite our ancestors being forced out of the country and to scatter to the four corners of the globe, the Irish identity remains strong. We stick together, look out for our own, might seem a tad romantic but while other countries moan about losing their identity I don't see it happening with Ireland.

    I am proud to be Irish as our own national sport is among the best in the world. Nothing beats Croker during Championship season. The sun shining. When Amhrain na bhFiann is being sung by 80,000 strong crowd. Unbeatable. Goosebumps on the back of my neck time.

    It can be done. Remove Fianna Fail from government. Put pressure on the other parties to put Bertie in the joy. For that is where the corrupt high heel wearing, make up sporting, corrupt little gee bag belongs.

    Make him do porridge! Let him show us how he is "de sal of de earth" slopping out with Anto and Nodser. Corrupt c*nt.
