Ireland to wear LGBT flag v USA.

[The Liffey Lip]

Ireland will wear a kit containing the rainbow flag colours of the LGBT movement in their international friendly with the United States this weekend.

The FAI announced that the numbers of the back of the player's shirts will be filled with the colours of the rainbow flag instead of the traditional white.

Martin O'Neill's side take on the United States in a friendly in Lansdowne Road on Saturday, and the FAI announced tonight that the side will wear the special kits in a show of solidarity with the LGBT community.

Irish football's governing body said that the gesture demonstrated their support for the LGBT movement, and forms part of UEFA's 'Equal Game' initiative.

"Not just a number, this is a statement. Ireland, supporting LGBT rights," the FAI wrote on their official Twitter account this evening.

Absolutely disgusting.I will seriously consider supporting the international team if its their intention to promote such filthy,and utterly repulsive gestures as this. I will not ever use the word marriage in the context of this carry on.I could not believe the amount of young people declaring themselves to be bent during the referendum at that time.I am fully convinced that it is nothing more then some kind of a fashion statement to declare yourself to be stoke on trent

Unfortunately for the unborn the gays wanted a yes as revenge against the catholic church an the women's Libbers wanted control takin away from the men in the catolic church.....
The referendum had Little do wit abortion.....
The same reason the gays want mosques and open borders.... Their solution is dilution wit no though to real consequences

Dysfunction replacing dysfunction

[dalymount]

Yout completely right octy,none of these referendums are about the actual issues.its a rebelion by young people who just do not respect authority,and their additude is that you wont fukking tell us what we can,ir cannot do.in their misguided quest to achieve whatever it is they want achieve,the actual issue ,and the inpirtance of it gets lost and the sad fact is,we now have queers getting married to each other,we now have the murder of innocent children etc etc .its a sad world we live in.all because todays youth can not,or will not repect authoritity.but whats even worse is the fact that our lickass piliticians like Varadker,Martin,Harris etc etc row in with support for them because they think its what they want to hear

[john m]

Is that not a Political Emblem ,England were done for wearing the Poppy .

[dalymount]

One thing I noticed in the last fee years about all these referendums was, there theyme is equality ,but if you expressed an opposing view to the liberal led boyd barrett,coppinger brigade,you were totally frowned upon ,and even felt intimidated and then they have the cheek to talk about domocracty,and equality

As a former ROI soccer supporter who travelled the world to support his home team fer many years,
this is a step too far, I have no problem with the LGBTP, let ye do yere own thing, but don't be expecting
the whole Fookin world to come out and support yiz.
If I was still a ROI supporter today, then I would have Boycotted the match rather than wear the LGBTP
colours.

[Belker]

LGBTP is not my thing, but I do not protest against it.

The county of Kerry is also not my thing and by God, you will never see me at a Munster Final
match with a Kerry jersey on, so why should I be expected to wear anyone else's colours ?

My choice of colour is Red fer Cork or Green fer ROI and Fook-all else !
