5 -0? Fuck me, I thought articul8 was joking. Fucking 5 - 0 to some part time farmers? Now that is comedy.

A great night for football all around.
Shelbourne hold Steau Bucharest to a draw, while Celtic get hammered by Slovakian minnows.
Note: I have nothing against Glaswegian Celtic fans. It's Irish Celtic fans I have a problem with.

I actually quite like Celtic, but it's Chorlton I have a problem with. This is fucking hilarious. 5 - 0? I can't quite grasp how shite Celtic must be.

I have a particular problem with people who manage to combine crass, often sectarian, nationalism with support for a British corporation. When Celtic played St Pat's these gobshites turned up to cheer against their local side.

There are absolutely no positives to take from tonight's match.

Why do I have the feeling you don't quite have the same problem with Irish people who support English teams and don't come on here to celebrate when those teams get pumped in europe?Nigel Irritable said:
Nice one. When was that again?
Oh, and we're European Champions mate. I couldn't give a fuck about your third world football.

I do indeed have a problem with Irish people who support English teams or Rangers for that matter - although the last bit is somewhat academic as there aren't too many people wandering around Dublin in Rangers jerseys.
Irish Celtic fans irritate me a little more than Irish Liverpool fans, because they are more visible and because of the rank fucking hypocricy of supporting a British corporation over your local side for what are at root nationalist or sectarian reasons. Also arseholes in Liverpool jerseys don't turn up looking for trouble every time a League of Ireland side plays a mainly Protestant club from the North.

What about people supporting Celtic (for example) because their father did and were taken to the games when young?

I think you should support a local club first and foremost. I've got no problem with someone who supports say Bohs but also keeps an eye out for Celtic or Liverpool or Barcelona. I do have a problem with someone who turns up to support a big club from a city they have no connection with against their own local side.
The likes of Celtic have nothing to do with Irish football, except in so far as they damage it by leaching off support and money that should go to our own clubs. And that's before you even deal with the sectarian gobshitery which surrounds Celtic and Rangers in Ireland. Shels actually ban Celtic jerseys from the ground whenever we play (Northern) Irish league sides.

QED. Just as I thought.Nigel Irritable said:
Being a glory hunter english-arse licker is acceptable but supporting Celtic automatically makes you a sectarian. Hunbelievable!

Nigel's not wrong.
I notice that Peterhead are playing Berwick at the weekend. As Stranraer are two divisions above Peterhead this year, is this likely to be the longest trip in Scottish football this season? Or is Elgin even further?

What, Stranraer are in the SPL?
Stranraer= 1st division
Fishy jailers=2nd division.
Some Berwick fans have chartered a boat to get to the game- no joke.
As to your question re: the Shire, more of the same, really, no money, no fans, barely a team. But Albion Rovers are set to be even worse this year (currently onl;y 4 players and holding trials in a public park for the remainder) so i have a feeling the Shire will avoid the wooden spoon.
You'd know all this if you read my blog.

Blimey, sorry about that, I misread the table, or its title.
There's a lot of stuff about the Shire in the Guardian today though it looked like an unoriginal piece of hackwork ("I follow club for a season and write it up") to me.

Almost certainly is- and the Grauniad are years behind most of the Scottish papers in adopting Shire as their official 'diddy team'.

Remarkable that you think that responding to points I have not made rather than ones I have made is a useful way to carry on an argument. I have a problem with glory hunters from Ireland who support any big club elsewhere rather than their own local clubs, which struggle to survive through the efforts of small numbers of real football fans.
Celtic fans are merely the most obnoxious of the breed because (a) they are the most visible around here, (b) I am appalled by the rank hypocricy of supporting a British corporation against your own local clubs for what are generally nationalist or sectarian reasons and (c) the behaviour of pricks in Celtic jerseys every time a League of Ireland club plays what is perceived to be a "Protestant" club from the North.
The basic issue however remains the same regardless of which club the glory hunters choose.

away and wank dogs will ye?
i'll support whoever the fuck i want and condescending no-mark ballbags like yerself do little to champion your cause.
tell me Nigel, whom should i have chosen out of my struggling local clubs to watch rather than celtic - the loyalist infested shower of cunts at Coleraine or the loyalist infested shower of cunts at Ballymena - tell me nigel PLEASE.

It appears I touched a nerve with at least one glory hunter.
I'm perfectly willing to accept that the situation is different regarding Northern football. For all that decent fans of most clubs have been trying to eradicate sectarian shite for years now, a club which goes out of its way to make you feel unwelcome or intimidated can hardly be considered your local club. But there are a number of clubs in the North with supports which either don't sing sectarian songs/fly sectarian flags or which lean towards the nationalist side of things. But you don't choose to follow any of them. Instead you choose one of the fucking Old Firm to support, and there even more than in the South, following those particular British corporations serves in large part as a mark of sectarian identity.
And of course even what little excuse you have only applies to people in the East of Northern Ireland (not even including North Belfast and surrounds). Or do "loyalist infested showers of cunts" force all those Celtic fans in Derry or Dublin to support a British corporation rather than their own teams?

Chorlton is no glory hunter.
Stick to dissecting Trot sects and splits Nigel- at least there you appear to know what you're talking about.

I know exactly what I'm talking about here Steeplejack. I support a small Dublin club, which like all of the other Irish clubs faces a constant struggle to survive because of people who choose to support big British clubs rather than their own local ones.
The situation is much the same for clubs in many parts of Britain where most of the locals choose to support Man Utd or Arsenal or the Old Firm or some other glory club rather than their own, but here it's a problem which affects every single club and to a much bigger extent.
And Chorlton, nice to see you answer my question so thoroughly.
