Scottish and irish football fans

  1. Don’t let the orange men in the north see this or they’ll use it as fire against the BBC for not showing their beloved 12th parade

  2. Irish fans sing F Jubillee and then gladly support British football teams. buy their shirts, their match tickets. sad.

  3. I thought they were chanting “Walking too early” .. I thought .. “were they catching a train early in the morning?”

  4. I’ve seen a couple of comments on this video in other places that Irish people don’t actually like the Scots. I understand that Scotland obviously had it’s part in the colonisation of Ireland, and this is usually cited as the reason for the dislike, but is this true? Am I being an ignorant arsehole thinking that the Scot-Irish relationship is like 🤝? Or is this just internet politics and I don’t have to worry?

    If anyone could give a genuine answer on this, I would really appreciate it!

  5. But there were no bank holidays in Ireland for the jubilee, no large parties or events, no parades, no television specials etc. why would anyone in Ireland be singing about an event that was nothing to do with them and was so easily avoided if that was their wish?
    With Scottish fans I can kind of understand it.

  6. In Toners yesterday in the downstairs small bar, 4/5 groups of Ireland fans and one Scottish group. Chants of “james mc clean hates the fucking queen”. At some stage the scots chime in with a “hey we also hate the queen”. Back and forths with that “hey we hate the queen more than you” etc.

    One of the irish fans got a bit too cheeky with them, everyone fucked him out of it immediately.

    The whole thing was obviously childish but honestly the experience felt oddly connecting with a group of complete strangers. Not the biggest soccer fan but i do get it now.

    Also what a first match to have ever seen in the Aviva. The 3-0 was unreal.
