This is a good news story…You may already know this, or it may be well covered in Ireland, I am in Australia, so I can’t tell. The Gary Moore song, Parisienne Walkways, with Phil Lynott on vocals, was played for the men’s figure skating gold medal: I am watching it now, it sounds like the LP or 12 ”version.

The Southall Shamrocks.

Made up of FOREIGNERS.

Southall Shamrocks was established after Irish geography teacher Brendan Doherty ran several football sessions last summer as part of National Sports Week at Featherstone High School in West London, where almost 99 per cent of its 1,500 pupils are from an ethnic minority. Now, the team are braving the cold winter evenings twice a week as they train ahead of their three-day tour of Ireland’s GAA hotspots during the school’s half-term break.

Is this a first for the illuminati GAA anyone?

“The proposed name, The Cromwell is inappropriate due to the offence it may cause to some residents and regulars with regards to the atrocities and land seizures carried out by Oliver Cromwell in Ireland and the subsequent famine and suffering caused to our Irish cousins.”

FIGHT!
