    There'd be golds all round for the self-haters on boards if there was medals for it.

    There are people in this country who, if they won €185m on the Euromillions, would be moaning that it hadn't been rounded up to €200m.

    ...not like the rest of us who would demand that it be rounded down to €150m:(.

    I'm in agreement with the OP on this - its time we put it to bed, nothing wrong with national pride and supporting out own but the fields of athenry and Ole need to be taken out and shot

    I just hate the people who turn every big event, from the MTV awards to the Olympics, into a cringe-fest.

    Dunno how it would impact Ireland since it only seems to happen in other countries.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,576 ✭✭✭IrishAm


    Ireland wins a gold medal, start a thread criticising the people attending.

    Makes sense.

    Cringe-fest? It's a just a chant.

    There's nothing offensive whatsoever about it. Just people chanting because they're happy and contributing to an atmosphere. Give me a crowd of people chanting ''olé olé'' instead of a miserable fúck who moans about people enjoying themselves.

    What exactly is the problem with "Olé olé olé?"

    Would you prefer people chanted something different?
    If so, what?

    Would you prefer if they didn't cheer?

    I was just asking someone how intimidated that Russian girl must have felt with all those Irish voices behind Katie.

    How could you lose with that much support? (unless you're the football team, we can only do so much, like...)

    People are embarrassed by other people of the same nationality chanting?

    That was a chant for when Ireland didn't win anything,:( so someone should come up with a different one to suit the present GOLD medal winning circumstances.:D

    When Irish people chant 'Ole Ole Ole' they're basically saying 'we don't know what else to say because we're fucking stupid.' At least that's what I hear. I mean, for Christ's sakes, couldn't they have chanted, 'KATIE! KATIE! KATIE!' or 'IRELAND! IRELAND! IRELAND!' No. 'Ole Ole Ole.'
