When I hear these expressions of concern for the NI good supply from GB for example, I wonder have they not heard that they border one of the most food secure states on earth.

The road north from the stadium that forks to the right at Millbrook is in essence Lacky Road and turns into same when it crosses the border.@Francie, I've only ever come across it officially as Lacky, but sure it's Ireland it may well have another 8 or 9 spellings.

Some of your mates must have Jack Charlton autobiography and I think he confirms it. But you guys really need to take a big long look at yourselves. You are focused on one game in 1993 and can’t even name anything that happened and now you are saying that because the Roi players didn’t celebrate the murder of our people before ‘every’ game then it’s ok.

I think we got to a point where you accepted that despicable behaviour was happening. Well here we are - seems it is alive and well in the ROI football team of 2020 - absolutely disgraceful - can you just imagine if this happened within the Northern Ireland thing?https://www.independent.ie/sport/soccer/international-soccer/fai-launch-investigation-into-political-video-message-shown-to-ireland-players-ahead-of-england-clash-39767596.html

If it was what the are saying on Twitter 'a 3 minute montage of Anglo-Irish history mixed with goals scored', don't really see why anyone would get offended. Our history is our history. I'd be more worried about the state of the two teams on the island myself. 'United in mediocrity'

Is this the latest topic you've been given by your local loyalist bigot chapter? I suppose all your bravado from last week has come to naught as you wind your way down to Nations League C and you need something, anything to have a go at "themmuns". Pathetic.
