Alison what skarpi and you said is correct, be proud, but sadly the loyalists don't see it that way ! Anything green and white is enough to get you beaten up, but their football team can wear it ! It's fine for them to cover the streets over there in Red white and blue and put street arches up where nobody wants them, but they know they have the repackaged RUC behind them. I live in London now and wear my Irish badges with pride and nobody seems to care.
