    This happened over the weekend in BELFAST and it was alledgley Linfield fans so to ensure St Pats HOME game in DUBLIN with Linfield is trouble free, its being switched to Windsor Park in BELFAST!!! :confused::confused: seriously WTF!

    WHY are you WRITING in BOLD? What does this have to do with St Pat's? Neither of your links reference any of the points you make?

    Everything I don't like is either woke or fascist - possibly both - pick one.

    The links refer to the trouble in Belfast over the weekend with Linfield fans. Of course it has something to do with SPA if their game against Linfield has been switched to Belfast.

    Windsor better suited for "safety" reasons, think i get the bus to this one and pass on the window seat :p

    I know - my point was that the links never referred to the Pat's game. Or any thought or official line that said the game might be moved.

    Cos there none yet, both clubs meeting now with police to decide on the safest thing to do. Windsor was deemed to be the safest, the links are the trouble that causing this move.

    RUC Escort from the border, or just outside Belfast, then back again after the match.

    You'll be alright.

    Kdjac,

    Your indignation might be more credible if the Glens fans hadn't been milled by Pats on Richmond Road. Its overkill I agree.

    Sure don't Pats have a strong tradition of bending over for Nordie teams, remember the tricolour being taken down in Baldonnell at the request of Portadown?

    LOL i love that one, rovers fan had a little chant about it in 97-98ish. Shame the game was played up North and we won 2-1. Even if the game was in Dublin and we did take it down, should we not be gracious to our guests? I know i would be 1st to take it down. We didnt use Baldonnell till about 99-00 onwards but its a good chant.

    You tell us, you are the one who put the vids up on youtube - probably contributing to the hype that created the decision.

    Gracious to your guests? Pat Dolan removing the national flag at the insistance of bigots? If you say so.
