    Mir knows feck all about Paddy........
    She didn't bring out the best in him tonight, he should have stood up for himself more regarding the national anthem thing, right he is to say Danny Boy isn't an anthem, it isn't, The Soldiers Song is his anthem as much as for anyone in the rest of Ireland. He wants to box and do well and the commonwealth games is open to him so he fights there and wants to get a medal. It doesn't mean he has to disown being Irish. Eamon Holmes explaining to him the history of Danny Boy being sung when Barry McGuigan fought his bouts was an insult to Paddy Barnes: I think he might have heard the story by now and Eamon Holmes is the one I took issue with on the Miriam show as he talks like a West Brit.

    Paddy was very naive to think they'd play Amhran na bhFiann.

    I was in Scotland at the start of the Commonwealth Games. The Scots played
    their own anthem when they won gold. There was a mention of it on TV one
    morning - no big deal was made about it. Does Paddy not understand that Ireland
    is not part of the Commonwealth? If he were living south of the border, he would
    not even be taking part in the games!

    Firstly he did not expect that the Irish anthem would be played, he wished it could be, as that is his anthem. And Don't say you were at the start of the commonwealth games: you were not . Paddy Barnes understands all about Ireland and that is what bothers you.

    If Paddy Barnes is as proud an Irishman as you say he is, then he wouldn't be participating in what was once known as The Empire Games.....

    But Cork, and the English Market, were out with their union jacks, waving them all about, when the queen of england and her husband visited, in recent years, isn't that right, and aren't you from Cork?

    Not sure if your post is tongue in cheek, Cris, but when you're in a hole, stop digging.
