Whereas Tottenham being from NE London do have a Jewish connection. Then there is West Ham, with their scabby eastend thugs and their loveable mates Millwall just south of the river in Bermondsey, without doubt one of the arse ends of London. No respectable Londoner supports West Ham or Millwall. |
the only oirish connection i no of at man utd is George best, and he was an ulster protestant...

goodfoot seems to have issues that goes beyond football.
Ironically, Best was the only protestant in the 1968 European Cup winning team. United themselves started out as a catholic run football club in the days they were known as Newton Heath. The Irish connection doesn't begin and end with football, but is ingrained in Manchester history. The links with Ireland run through not just the history of the club, but through the history of the city too. http://www.prideofmanchester.com/mancirish/history1.htm |

You posted a badge with sectarian overtures and it wasn't the first time you've made references to religious and political divides in football. Both of which have no place in the game.

just trying to spice up a dull football thread, to much back slapping going on here, not enough badass posters, long live archie mitchell, a good west ham man....
