    No problem. It will get headlines for womens soccer. I don't disagree with the spirit behind the song either.

    Never heard them sing it. I am delighted for them do. It was not the greatest match or even their best match but they done enough. The person of the match for me do should have been out Goalkeeper. She kept us in the game.

    No I generally only get shocked by serious things not a chant that’s been sung for years in our country after 800 years of oppression

    It's a song about the IRA and the British occupation of Ireland...next we will be questioning "Flower of Scotland" which is about the Scots killing a rake of Englishmen...

    Now the later incarnation of the IRA is allow unsavoury parallels to be drawn to the lyrics and the post independence IRA activities
