It only became the "Holylands" when the Jtown hoods moved in

Time to evict anyone is a sports top

Nah, it was the Holylands (although I hear the S being dropped a lot now) long before the poly stars arrived.

Was thinking of hosing them down with very high pressure water cannons but now thinking to just burn them.

I'd always presumed the "Holylands" nickname came from the names of the streets in the area . . .
It's the hope that kills you.

And you'd be right.

Rugby is something like a religion to many of us.

As for the Holylands, quite a few lads in Irish Rugby garb interviewed on the beeb, seemed like perfectly decent lads to me albeit there was mayhem going on around them.

You don't think it was them biys in the GAA shirts do you? :shock:

I agree. Some Irish people are too, almost all of which reside in NI these days, and I have no issue with that. People can be as they want to be as far as I concerned. I don't particularly care if someone wants to be Irish, British, French, American, Earthian, Martian or anything else. Nationalism is of such low importance to me. However I do care about accuracy of statements made.
It is a man's own mind, not his enemy or foe, that lures him to evil ways.
