    I do. Always have. Support them just as much as the republic. I've never been to Windsor park and never intend to as I don't feel I'd be welcome but that doesn't stop me supporting the team. Any other like minded people on here?

    Ps. Please don't turn this into a thread about the troubles. There's plenty of that in the H&P section.

    Nope. Never have, never will.

    In fact, if they played against England I'd support England.

    I don't support them and I like to see them get beat if I am honest but my dad although he supports the Republic will always have a wee look out to see how they are doing.

    Nope.

    Run by a bunch of corrupt * in the IFA.

    I could never support them,i have been in Windsor years back and it is a horrible place to be.

    I don't know how any Nationalist could support that mob.

    The fans are scumbags to an extent. Same as rangers. The team aren't though. Manys a good * played for them. One manages them right now

    Many good people support them too, many horrible horrible * though and they are the majority in my mind. Supporting a state that I don't recognise to exist is unthinkable.

    You think the people on here who live in the North of Ireland think of themselves as "Northern Irishmen"? Really?

    Probably not no but it doesn't change the fact 'Northern Ireland' is still recognised as a separate country from the Republic of Ireland.

    Celtic men like Neil Lennon, Paddy McCourt and Martin O'Neill have all played for Northern Ireland, the latter winning 64 caps and captaining them at a World Cup.
