That was your intention though.

I think it's likely you're a fan of much more contemporary versions of the RA to be honest.

Well you'll have to find proof of that which you won't find.

But it's the standard slur towards an Irishman from a little Englander. Yes

All the English people I know would never leap to this sort of deliberate misidentification, I’ve only heard this type of tactic from the online and angry EDL types. Luckily they are in the minority and are often called out by the majority of good English people.

It's not taken long for the double standards to come out, has it? Nobody supports or gets behinds Toga's outrageous idiocy, but you can't say you have any high ground as you've frequently thrown round English slurs, particularly "little Englander" perhaps more than any poster.

Deliberate misidentification - he's related to a RA member ffs.

I do. He's an indoctrinated bigot with direct links to the Collins era (assuming he's not Globusing). It's useful to have one in the lab to be honest so I can poke it with sticks and report on the response.

You can be sarcastic all you want but there is a clear and obvious difference in shouting at a sports ground about the score by opposition fans and getting abused personally in public to the point Jones must have wondered are they going to pull him out his car. If it was abuse Twickenham security would get involved. Nobody is justifying either incident but if you can't see the difference you are being ridiculous.

How about threatening the girlfriend of an England player?

Camilla Kerslake- girlfriend of England Rugby captain Chris Robshaw - has claimed her life has been put in danger thanks to the Rugby World Cup as a backlash against the singer intensifies.

The 27-year-old soprano has seen herself thrust into the spotlight thanks to her relationship with the sport star and as England's Rugby World Cup campaign comes under pressure, she claims the negative attention has become "scary".
Last week Robshaw was blamed for England's catastrophic defeat at Twickenham by Wales, after a last minute decision by the captain to go for an all out victory rather than a draw, which saw them go home losers.

Camilla had already been the victim of online abuse before the match, but speaking to The Sun revealed the attacks have intensified since last Saturday, with disgruntled fans even turning up at their home.

"It's been scary," she told The Sun.

"I've had people outside our house. I don't know how people know where we live, we're just in an ordinary, mid-terrace house in South London."

Admitting there have been "hairy incidents", the situation has become so hellish for the star that a friend now stays with her at the house for protection.

How far down this rabbit hole do you and Toga want to chase your tails?

Give up with the supposed moral superiority act... it makes you look insular, parochial, small minded and nationalist.

It's Toga, any good faith you think you're arguing with isn't there. Look at the company you're keeping here.

Not looking for high ground. Don't want to be seen as a terrorist supporter which I will defend as that's quite serious.

English posters. I apologise about the England bashing bit. I was having fun but what I was saying was definitely offensive. Sorry.

You were having fun and trying to troll but was getting hissy with Toga about his IRA claims? I think you are trying to re-write history here.

As for the whole Scotland/England thing. I've always found the English to be great sports on the odd occasion that we do beat them, and we probably go a bit OTT/mental when we do beat them but I think that's a mixture of the rivarly and us usually getting steam rolled by them, so it often takes us by surprise e.g last week's performance.

Now watch us get pumped on Sat in Baile Ath Cliath

Tá súil agam.

That's gas I had to put that into google translate.

So "cànan" is language in Scots gaeilge
It's teanga in Irish gaeilge.

Often I can read lots of Irish and can understand a huge chunk of Irish from the north/Northern Ireland but there's always one or two phrases in a sentence that stumps me.

Rathad - road ; yet it seems in Gaelige its bódhar.

I do LOVE the Irish for Wales though - e.g ''wee Britain'' whilst we seem to have adapated Cymru and call them Cumirigh.

Still, there is A LOT of similarities in our language and I would love to do a Gaelige course at some point.
