Marx said 'Religion is the opium of the people' but I believe he meant 'Religion is the nemesis of the people' both cause a lot of grief when taken in large quantities.

I doubt many people give a toss what religion you are or where you or your partner say your prayers, and I don't remember religion ever being a problem at Ravenhill.divemaxer wrote: Can't believe your even discussing the matter.Typical of Northern Ireland....religion,religion,religion...bloody wise up and move on !!I'am in a mixed relationship and both very proud to support the ulstermen!

As for the tw@ts who choose one of the 3 southern teams as they can bring themselves to support the team on their own doorstep due to their own petty bigotry. If they never darken the gates of Ravenhill, it will be too soon.

Agree entirely... well put!Setanta wrote:The IRFU and the four provinces have survived the covenant, the Easter Rising, the civil War, the troubles and the marching, flegs and symbols; I'm sure they'll survive the bigots(both sides) in the media and on websites. Ulster Rugby represents the nine counties of Ulster. England, Scotland, Wales and Italy are wildly jealous that they didn't have a provincial system on which to base their game when it turned professional. If we bit this undoubted plus up by not taking advantage, by letting certain infamous journalists pour bile in the soup, by introducing unnecessary stupid rules, by not spreading the game, and by not treating all the provinces equally then it's our own stupid fault.

How can a man be a bigot for supporting Munster?

There are people in NI who refuse to support Ulster as they see them as a Northern Ireland based team and cannot bring themselves to support them for that reason, choosing teams from the south instead. It is not about who they support, more about who they don't and the reasons why.

Some teams are special, like Munster and Liverpool

Ulster are only a representative side if it is representing the multiple countries that provide the players.big mervyn wrote:Translation?UncleFester wrote:Unless they also represent multiple countries going by the team.
In simple term, it is now not a representative side.
