We nearly had Ireland bankrupted by getting them to host the Eurovision Song Contest every year. Until the ****s cottoned on to what the rest of Europe were up to. The daft ****s actually thought their singers were really winning it.
If the UK paid all that money to Ireland in one big payment the place would be ****ed. It'd be like giving an alcoholic a years worth of dole money all at once.
Lies, damn lies and statistics..... Debt per head of population ; UK - 117,580 euros Ireland - 390,969 euros !!!!!!!! So in real terms you actually owe more than 3 times what we do. And if you really want the 9 billion we owe you, go ask the Yanks they owe us over 250 billion ! Although of course "they" don't really owe "us" and "we" don't really owe "you". We all owe the ****ing banks !!!!!
You're a bit of a self loathing Celtic supporter arn't you? Like a goth kid who refuses to go along with the popular culture you do all you can do to distance yourself from it - look at me I'm a proud Unionist, British Celtic supporter who never engages in such below me antics such as embracing Ireland in any way possible. Yes we all get it, you like to get tore into Ireland at every opportunity to differenitate yourself from the riff raff - although some of us are actually Irish and not the inbred little weegie group of neds of which you are trying to convince everyone you are not to be associated with.
Miaow! The whole Celtic = anti-Britain reminds of something we have at Man United (albeit more prevalent). Mancunian United fans, on the whole, dislike the England national team. I don't, but other United fans are always surprised, almost affronted, when I say so. Ridiculous really , though more understandable with Celtic fans I suppose.
PMT pants- I thought I could smell something ! .......Sorry I just realised you wrote rants <stillholdingontoyourtamponstring>
The same guy also described a Ford Escort XR3i as XR thirty one - needless to say he didn't last long - went on to become a social worker.
