Do the Irish(in general) have an inferiority complex?

Ibrahimovic91 · 24-07-2009 04:52PM #1

I believe so.

Also a very subservient relationship with the UK as well, just take a look at all the plastic brits in pubs all day on a Sunday with their English soccer jersey shouting at the tv with a pretend English accent.:rolleyes:

I think you have an inferiority complex . I pity you

WindSock · 24-07-2009 04:56PM

Yeah look at them. How dare they like anything other than bogball. Traitors.

Ibrahimovic91 · 24-07-2009 04:58PM

'Traitors'? We live in a country where nationalism is shoved down our throats, nationalism is an offshoot of insecurity. I hate GAA culture, however I support an actual Irish soccer team unlike those sheep.

prinz · 24-07-2009 05:00PM

I presume Celtic jerseys are included in this

Scottish subserving gits. :rolleyes: I don't have an inferiority complex, but I have worn German club jerseys in a pub and cheered on German teams..... am I a plastic German now?

minidazzler · 24-07-2009 05:01PM

Actually the Irish have a Superiority complex. We are a people who think we are the best at everything.

Just listen to songs people believe like "You'll never beat the Irish" and others.

Do we? I don't think Irish people are as inheritantly patriotic as the Americans. I think we are very self depricating in many cases.

As for the inferiority complex, that is understandable. It's the same as NZ/Oz and Canada/US. It's living next door to stronger nations that makes many other nations produce some great talent, art and music. IMO.

If anything the Irish have a superiority complex. We think that our country is this amazing place when in reality it's almost a Third World nation.

The reason we copy so much from England is that they are a reasonably well developed society/culture.

Also, Irish soccer is terrible. People watch the English Premiership to see world class players, not a bunch of part-timers. It's the same reason more people watch the Premier Division rather than League 1 and 2 in England.

Ibrahimovic91 · 24-07-2009 05:05PM

No they support English club teams, and Prinz you following German football shows you have an indipendant mind as the Bundesliga is not shoved down your throat and you don't consume it like a good little sheep.

Actually the Irish have a Superiority complex. We are a people who think we are the best at everything.

Just listen to songs people believe like "You'll never beat the Irish" and others.

A country that actually believes this wouldn't come up with a song like that, small minded insecurity however does.

Cookie_Monster · 24-07-2009 05:06PM

Well the Germans HAD a superiority complex and look what happened to them.
I think we're grand they way we are thanks

WeeBushy · 24-07-2009 05:07PM

I have a superiority complex, but that's just because I am better than anyone else.

I do love the irony though. The same gobsh*tes will spend Monday to Saturday telling you how much they hate the English. It's hilarious. I remember a perfect scene in irony being in a pub on Talbot Street one time with some over weight skin head local showing off his 'Ra tattoos, Except he had to lift the sleeves of his Arsenal shirt to do it.

Oh please. You are saying it is ok for an Irish person to follow German football but it's not ok for an Irish person to follow English football? Back under your bridge troll. Where did you get your username from? Ibrahimovic play in the Eircom League?

Ibrahimovic91 · 24-07-2009 05:17PM
