Site Supporter fatolive Posted June 20, 2012 Site Supporter Share Posted June 20, 2012 You know that won't happen here. 'Churlish' is how I would describe the SF protestors during the Queens visit to Ireland. and so would I,though why this is in a topic about a missing football fan I don't know, but, I would also describe them more accurately, as it is important to distinguish these things to stop people getting upset, as a "churlish minority" . not really arsed about the best fans argument, just hope, as i'm sure most on here would do, that a young lad who went watching a football tournament, gets home safe and is ok.

Site Supporter fatolive Posted June 20, 2012 Site Supporter Share Posted June 20, 2012 Er...I imagine he is D - Dead And maybe he was the best fan in the world Its not the Irish fans fault they get portayed in that way - they go over in large numbers and generally make friends and behave themselves Would that happen with 20,000 English fans? And yeah he could end up doing someone's drive........while the lazy English family inside watch Jeremy Kyle and get the taxpayer to pay for the work bit of a sweeping generalisation there, that, if said in the opposite way, say about digging spuds/bomb chucking or indeed laying asphalt , you'd no doubt be on complaining about racist stereotypes and the unfairness of it all.

I thought this was a Euro 2012 thread???? It seems strange that you want to turn it into an argument everytime I post anything related to Ireland.

Sad to go on a football trip and not come home. did hear a report in the first stages of him missing that there was an altercation with some local youths and they got split up, but nothing concrete on that since. reports say were watching the game in a bar so a good chance half cut. http://www.herald.ie/news/missing-irish-fans-row-with-local-men-3144139.html edit to add link Edited June 20, 2012 by fatolive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
