My wife however would be eligible for Ireland, Italy, England & Scotland. Some people have complex ancestry that may not be obvious to you. Choosing Ireland seems to be a particular issue for some people in this country and by the way the term plastic paddy is offensive. Not to me particularly, but it has obvious connotations which anyone with half a brain in this country would be keen to avoid. You don’t strike me as stupid Malcolm so I’m therefore left to believe you were on a wee fishing mission. Maybe be a wee bit more careful in future as you’re pushing the boundaries a bit with this shite. Are you surprised to see Malcolm post like this? He's the ultimate billy brit, spends his time on a scotland forum fishing for bits. He may not be stupid but he is a dick Edited March 3, 2023 by vanderark14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have won a few caps for Scotland and I sign for Man City, I feel more English now? Absolute horse shit, its amazing how many of you billy brits believe this it’s a fact. You can love your country dearly, support the national team passionately, but believe that we are better off as part of a United Kingdom. You might not agree with it but these people exist.

mccaughey85 Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 I dont think plastic paddy is a racist term. Are the irish a race? Infact are the scottish a race? Also what is it with the spelling police around here. I have been pulled up in the past for it, usually when certain members dont like the point i am making and they will try and take a cheap snipe at spelling or punctuation instead making a valid counter point. Most ppl in here usually make all kinds of spelling and grammatical mistakes. If you care massively about these minor details then a football message board probably isnt the best place for you.

I can care about more than one thing at a time. I felt it worthwhile to ridicule a racist both for being a racist and for being a thick cunt. In fact, it could be argued the two are related. All in all, a valuable contribution. So you can fuck off with your culture of inadequacy and celebration of ignorance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have just looked up the definition of race. Not sure how the irish could be considered a race under the definitions i found online. Do you think scottish is a race? What makes you think irish is a race? Surely its a nationality rather than a race. Are the french or italians a race? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've yet to meet an Irishman that's been offended by Paddy. I assumed it was just because of the one time dominance of that name in the country? 🤔 But hey, I'm probably an evil racist cunt too just for being naive enough to think that was the reason!

I’m not sure what you were looking up online (1970’s attitudes maybe) but we can all find arguments to suit our narrative if we look hard enough.

Big Ramy 1314 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 I am not happy with MJ decision, but it is his decision to make. I would never, ever, represent any other country in the world except Scotland. If say, I was not good enough to play for Scotland, yet could play for Canada, I would not play at all.. I am Scottish, end of !! That too, is my decision.. Best of luck to MJ whatever he decides... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If i was 25/26 and not good enough to play for scotland then i would certainly consider playing for another country especially if there was a decent chance of getting to major tournaments. Its a dream for young footballers to play at a euros or world cup. Mikey johnston is about to turn 24 and clearly knows he isnt going to get a chance with scotland so has taken an option most would take. Personally i wish him all the best. Hopefully he helps ireland out and plays well. Just not against us lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
