Northern Ireland go top: Stan to get reprieve?
Yep, heard the cheering from down below, now it’s all quiet because it’s all over… (till the pubs get out)… They just expect Healy to score and he does… Meanwhile, with a 1-0 against Slovakia, maybe some of the blatantly pernicious salami slicing of Stan will stop…

“IJP the GFA included recognition of the legitimacy of Northern Ireland and its place in the UK. It included no such recognition of the present-day boundaries of Ulster, which is not a legally defined entity.”
Are you not dizzy from all that spinning beano? Everyone knows what the boundaries of the four provinces are.
We could start asking – what flag is on Belfast’s “Ulster Hall”? How many counties does the Rugby team represent? When Ulster said no, how many counties where they referring to, or did the people signing the Covenant in Cavan, Monaghan and Donegal not count?

A work colleague who attended the game witnessed a steward in the Kop end intervening when dozens of fans at the rear of the stand sang a Rangers song linking Henrik Larsson and the IRA !! I will spare you the details but it wasnt the stuff of rocket science…
Up there with Sammy Mac’s Protestant Army ha ha ha.
Might have fallen for it if you hadn’t mentioned the ‘steward intervening’.
