Subject: RE: football songs are they folk or traditional songs
fat ba;;;;rd. Brian peters is a guest,so you cant p m him.
to mcgrath, there are no crowd type songs in gaelic football,and the fans dont have to be segregated ,a kerry man will enjoy his football, seated next to a cork man and visa versa.
The irish are friendly civilised people and though they support their county with zeal, they never abuse their rivals through song.
Idont think it occurs in rugby[the abusive songs]but in internationals matches the Irish sing Fields ofAthenry.
