    We do love a bandwagon. Everyone will be trading in the oars for a hockey stick now.

    The Ireland-Spain semi final is due to start in five minutes time. BTW I didn`t realize that Irelands Call was used as the anthem for the hockey team. I always associated it with rugby only.


    It's a bunch of bulls**t.

    If the nordies who cannot relate to or respect the flag or anthem want to play internationally they can fcuk off and have their own team.

    I have zero support for the Irish rugby, cricket or hockey teams, even though I love the sport of cricket.

    Its amazing how fans suddenly emerge for sports they knew nothing about 2 weeks ago. If jumping on bandwagons was an Olympic sport, we would win the gold medal every time.

    What should we do then? Ignore the team?

    Well if both Amhran na bhFiann and God Save The Queen were played a certain section of society would be dissatisfied with that too. Applies to rugby, cricket, hockey wherever there is a single team representing the entire island.

    It’s the song itself I think is pants, I have no problem with using a different song for the anthem but Ireland’s call is like the winner of a school contest.

    Written by Phil Coulter. Hardly a winner of a school contest. Who would you suggest writes a new song to replace it?

    RTE couldnt get someone who knows about hockey to commentate so they wheeled out George Hamilton.
