    Irish people have a bad name?

    **** off, no one is looking for your approval. You are from one of the most hated nations on the planet so forgive us if we dont give a **** what you think.

    Fra might be a tit, but he is our tit. :smoke

    Depends on how the individual defines his identity. Any other answer is bollocks. Most would consider themselves Irish, I should imagine.

    I'm always amused when people adopt this mentality about their country, the sports team, whatever. As to give it some extra signifigance, when the reality is most people don't care, haven't considered the issue, couldn't give a ****. A small nations desperate struggle for relevancy perhaps? It's better to be "hated" than "irrelevant" I suppose.

    Thats weak as British lager!

    Unlike you, I would rather be irrelevant than hated - however, Ireland is hardly an irrelevant, we just dont fancy invading other peoples countries and generally making a **** of ourselves around the world! :good

    Was a dumb question though bro

    They're whatever they consider themselves to be

    Just so happens that virtually all of the good fighters out of "Nothern Ireland" at the moment are Irish (Frampton is the notable exception)
