Are Catholic boxers born in Belfast considered Irish/Northern Irish

why am i clearly a clown... because i differ from u politically :good

 

u have gone from speaking in circles to making literally no sense at all.


this thread began with a honest question. it had a easy answer, boxing in ireland is a all island sport, same as rugby, and athletics and a lot of other things. its not a matter of controversy or international relations, simply a reality


this is supposed to be a boxing site, to discuss boxing.


if u want to talk politics take it to the lounge or slugger o toole:hi:

 

You really should be more respectful toward the free state you so clearly envy.

 

m8... i understand u as much as u me ... so we r even.... all the same it must get lonely being the only 20 yr old in the SDLP:good

 

envy... despise more like... u r a bunch of cowardly mongrels.... with no balls... none at all:good

 

That's it, i'm telling.

 

yeah tell them all in ur rotten statelet... and make sure and tell them fra said so alrite:good

 

Why dont u ask Niall Connolly what some one from the free state would know:deal

 

They are counted in UK census figures not what ever the Irish equaivalent is. They ar Citizens of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland so they are "Northern Irish/British" whether they like it or not.

 

This is the way I see it, if you are listing boxers from Ireland and Britain it is best to do it geographically, not by loyalty, religion or any of that other bollox. That has no place in sport.

So boxers from the Island of Ireland should be listed together under "Boxers from ROI" and "Boxers from NI", this is not to say that most fighters from the 6 counties are not Irish, of course they are and I would never describe anyone as Northern Irish. As far as I'm concerned if you see yourself as Irish it doesn't matter what corner of the rock you live on.

Fra, chill out ffs .

 

Who would have guessed that this thread would decend into an epic ****fest? :think

I propose that Fra joins in on National Hug-a-Prod Week in a fortnight, it will do him the power of good.

:good

 

Wonder how many pages this thread will last....?

 

Love reading fra's posts. They are always uninformed ramblings of a genuine hate filled ****** and gives Irish people a bad name.
