^ I like to think that some of these traditional rivalries are exaggerated. When I was at primary school about a quarter of the class were Irish, with names that even schoolchildren could identify (O'Shea, O'Dee, Murphy, O'Malley etc) but as young children will in the right circumstances, we all got on just fine. There was no kind of factional divide at all.
