Sport is a different kettle of fish. There I can still hate, and still hate the scum. And obviously love Leeds but i can't be proud of other people's achievements. Maybe it's just my definition of what proud is. While we're on the subject is it sacrilegious to hate fat Frank more than the scum?I Now you go and **** yourself ya lanky paddy bollix
Your statement doesn't match the way you come over, you appear to be a proud Irish man imo,being proud of who you are doesn't mean you agree with everything in your country's history, if I wasn't proud of my country, I sure as hell wouldn't live in a country I dispised.
The older I get the more I dislike any form of nationalism except in sport. I'm Irish and happy to be irish, but I had no say in the matter, and happy to live in ireland. I also lived in England for 18 years and was happy to be living there, and would be happy to live there again.
Who are you to say your version of patriotism is better than anyone else’s. People who voted brexit thought it was best for their country. People who voted remain thought it was the best for their country. Disagreeing on that doesn't make one
Fair point but deep down you also make a choice to be Irish, after all you can have lived and become a citizen of any country in the EU if you so choose.
that's me telt, if that had been Milky calling me that i'd have got my race card out and sent him off. No, its not sacrilege to hate Fat Frank more than Scum, i loathe those ****s with a passion and any **** who slags my club. I used the football analogy because its all about tribalism, lets take where you live, for instance, you live in an area and support your local pub team and maybe have a beef with opposing pub team supporters, but you all support your City/town team and go watch them together and cheer them on, then there's your national team, go back to the bad old days of football violence you'd get scum, Millwall Leeds Chelski fans etc etc together fighting opposing fans from other countries because they are English, ****ing Tribalism for you ps my name is Mick btw, Paddy is my cousin
Show me where i have said that my patriotism is better than anyone else's What i am saying is to be patriotic or loving your country is not being racist
Show me where I said xenophobia = patriotism, I said the opposite. the statement in bold above I 100% agree with
Who were you referring to when you wrote this?.... You can be patriotic about your country without being xenophobic, so I consider myself patriotic
Yes and I have duel citizenship and can go back any time I like, but I also love England, if I didn't I wouldn't be here.
No- It wasn’t aimed at you, if that’s what you mean... it was meant as a general statement that wearing Union Jack boxer shorts or being anti-immigration ...whatever stereotypes people want to make ...doesn’t define what a patriot is.
Right you ****ing leftwing inbreds, i'm off to get ready to go to the pub with 10 of my mates to watch the game and get pissed. be good, see you all later See you you later too Chesh ALL LEEDS AREN'T WE
