ps Not VERY bitter about Saturday either :D

Er...I don't think a Celt would say "COME ON NORTHERN IRELAND" (who are mainly Protestant supporters). Celts would say "COME ON IRELAND (as Celts are mainly Catholic supporters!!) :roll:
Celts are a race of people that used to live here a long long time ago before the Angles, Saxons and Jutes took over a lot of the land. They then called their part Angle-land that became England.
The Celts were established in what today we call Ireland, Scotland and Wales. The Celts from England migrated into those parts and also the South West of England.
The Celts of Ireland also settled in Scotland (once called Pict-land) and intermarried with the locals. Somewhere around the 17th hundreds the Scots were invited to migrate back to what is now Northern Ireland by King Billy.
So it does not matter what religion you are........if you are Scottish, Irish, Northern Irish, Welsh or part of the South West of England.....you are a Celt.
So I stand by my earlier statement :roll:
Dave_NottsYou are absolooooootely right, Dave â€“ or rather the encyclopaedia you looked up is right! But what we are talking about is modern day FOOTBALL â€“ not the history of man-fuckinâ€™-kind. May I suggest you confront a few dozen Glasgow Rangers supporters and declare:-

Then when you recover, you can look up your injuries in a MEDICAL encyclopaedia. :sparring: :sparring: :sparring: :sparring: :bolt:
No encyclopaedia was read. I just enjoy reading about the origins of my country and those around me. You may be talking about football but I was talking about the race called the Celts. That was my statement :roll: . If you wish to change the context of my post to match the presumption you have made, then that is up to you :loon:
Have you met many Scottish people? Ask them are they Celts or tell them they are not Celts if they are not Catholic. You may be surprised by their answer.........and you may have to have your medical encylopaedia removed surgically after they have told you :whistling:
Dave_Notts The MAIN CONTEXT of your post was about FOOTBALL i.e. 'green shirt - come on Northern Ireland'. If you want to talk about the history of Celts, Catholickers, Anglo-Sexons (sorry, Freudian slips), you should start a new topic. :roll:
By the way Dave, if a Catholic bashes the Bishop - is it a mortal sin? I am of course asking the question on behalf of a freund (oops - a Freudian spelling mistake).
Look - the history of The Celts :arrow: :hump: :hump: :hump: :hump: :hump: :hump: :hump:
