    They didn't need to mention islands at all, it was unnecessary. However, if someone must, anything that doesn't imply ownership by one island over the entirety of the other will suffice: British and Irish Isles, Britain and Ireland, these islands (which only works if you are actually on the islands, I accept), the North Atlantic Archipelago, islands of the North Atlantic, the Anglo-Celtic Isles...
    It seems pedantic, as I said, but it is part of the reason why you still get your local semi-literates and part-time racists in England thinking Ireland is a home nation or that I am British. It is this refusal to accept the empire is over, and that it wasn't a good thing for the world, that is holding Britain back. The sooner * realise that, the sooner they will stop wanting to blow them up.

    Happy with the business so far , still early days in the window but weve brought in 3 good young attacking players, 1 for money while the huns have went for a 34 and 36yr old (on loan) with whatever funds they have.

    Eduard doesn't know how to use his strength in backing in and holding up, he will get that but he's still very raw, what i like about bayo well in the clips iv saw is he is a more central striker reminds me of the jan vennegoor mold something we haven't had in a long time

    Or maybe referring to the British isles doesn't include Ireland at all? They're two separate islands, two separate countries, plus it's a Slovakian Twitter page so maybe they were just referring to Scotland, England, Wales and the surrounding isles??

    That tweet literally has * all to do with anti-irishness whatsoever.

    Welcome to Celtic Bayo.

    Right Celtic, let's pay some attention to the defence now.

    I never said it did! What I clearly said, was that the term 'sticks in my craw'. I'm sure if a Slovakian fan reading this saw me call his club Czechoslovakian, for example, it would irritate but would understand that it was just lazy ignorance and not an attempt at offence. The reason for the above response was I was asked a question that was unrelated to the tweet.

    You're initial argument, by the way, is exactly why the term shouldn't be used at all.

    I apologise for helping take this off-topic.

    It wasn't an argument, but fair enough I must've mis-interpreted your post.

    I just didn't think the Slovaks said anything wrong, Scotland is in the 'British isles' and that term doesn't necessarily refer to the Republic of Ireland?

    The British Isles usually refers to Britain and Ireland, the Slovaks clearly intended no offence to anybody, but the term is a sensitive one. Irish people, or a large section of them, tend to avoid it completely.

    Good to see this completed. Now if someone (Burke?) could take a decent corner we might be talking.

    The defence is still giving me the fear though.
