    My great grandfather was shot while cutting turf by the black and tans.

    What they didn't do to that man... they took him out into the middle of the field. Put him up against the wall. One shot. Bang bang.

    Don't you be awkward now, he clearly means playing any anthem, oh and btw the pubs here don't play any anthems either.;):P

    You hear GSTQ in plenty of pubs up North at closing time so don't talk pish. It is offensive too. Crushing the poor Scots:pac:.

    I raise you The Specials - Ghost Town as played on Fr Ted..............:pac:
    ****, can't find a link.................
    Dedicated to out modern day FF heros who gave us Ghost Banks, Ghost Estates, and last but not least, forced emigration. Perfect song as a new Anthem for the naton.:rolleyes:

    Edit, the original video is quite suitable...........
    Choice, and that was my first instinct but then I thought it was a bit more May 2009.

    Playing the national Anthem at a time during which people are generally completely ****faced. Apt perhaps, but not respectful.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,851 ✭✭✭veryangryman


    Just read the first post - I feel more dead than ever now

    I dont even have the energy to send on that double facepalm - can someone please oblige?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,562 ✭✭✭scientific1982


    My Uncle says that when he was in college every pub in Galway played the national anthem at the end of the night. Back then people were respectful of our country and politicians. Now thanks to the liberal agenda of the Dublin media and the pinko lefties no one respects our dead heroes. In tough times where we all need to stick together and tighten our belts a little bit of nationalism would help.
    A significant proportion of our republican heros were "lefties".

    Anything FF do is for the good of the country. We have to take some painful medicine but it will help us recover in the long-term. A bit of reading up on our patriots might put things in context for the whingers and spongers today. My great grandfather was shot while cutting turf by the black and tans.

    I'm delighted that this the party approach. Because it shows how fcuked you are.

    FF is dead. now rot in hell.

    After seeing this thread pop up again, I can't get the national anthem out of my head now.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,937 ✭✭✭mardybumbum


    I haven't been to my local ****hole nightclub in years so I dont know If it plays it. I'd imagine it does though.

    whats this southern ireland business? only unionists and RTE use this word.
    we have a 26 county republic and do not desire the uncouth cranky element that inhabit the six counties.

    true, Liam Mellows was a commie.larkin and connolly. love the idealist but hate the ideal. there is a reason why they were gotten rid of.

    That is unpatronic and verging on sedition. Post reported.
    :pac:

    I might bother to post something further when I stop pissing myself with laughter!
    ...then again I might not. I might just let the OP carry on digging his own hole - or being up it! :pac:

    FF = traitors. As for Nationalism the concept has been "outlawed" by the media who still have a Section 31 hangover and equate love of country with subversive tendencies, ironically. NUIG FF is a troll or an Indo hack (same thing)

    He's definitely very good at digging his own hole, wonder if he'll get taxpayers money to fill it in?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,883 ✭✭✭smokedeels


    Any song would be preferable to "Journey - Don't Stop Believing"

    The Russian anthem is pretty epic. Go with that.

    Dah, Red Oktobir vas gud feelm, dosvadonya!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,883 ✭✭✭smokedeels


    "Hymn to Red October" is like a sexed up version of the old Soviet Anthem. I'll be requesting it wherever I end up finishing the night this weekend.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,283 ✭✭✭Chorcai


    This got a mention on the back of the Irish Indo Weekend Review today.
