Britain out of Ireland!

Exactly.

Their registration and affiliation give the accurate and proper reference to how they should be described.

As a Scottish Club.

Except I didn't mean to type SFA twice, was supposed to be SFA/SFL but I've now edited it.

You being the annoying twit you are quoted the typo :mad: :p :D
 
I'd love to see how many Celtic supporters, especially those in the West, hang on to a 'British' indentity.

I could probably fit them all in the boot of my car all in single swoop.

If you could find one......


Do you think we have illustrated that people will argue about just about any old nonsense, just like that of the OP to everyones satisfaction yet?:D

Well of course, how can I be the annoying twit if I let you edit stuff first....that's simply not cricket old boy......;)

Now, do we have a British Cricket team?

I don't know, I don't really like the sport.

I know there is a Scottish team though, as my math teacher at highschool was in it and there is a club not far from here.

Not too interested though don't even understand the scoring. :o

I don't get it either, all this ducking and method rubbish....just hit the damn ball and leg it, why complicate matters....:p

I had a thought however, does this mean that the English National team is really the British National team and can compete in the olympics....;)
 
whats the bill for the queens visit to ireland 30 or 40 mill euros,ok we can say the royals are good for business and generate more money,but do they,royal wedding cost 25 mill,now this 30 or 40 mill two events:confused:


I'd be willing to gamble that more than 25 million was spent on merchandise for the royal wedding.

They look bizarre waving the ashes urn about, it looks like someone knicked it from a dolls house or something.. I mean it's very understated isn't it?

:D
 
Couldn't the tat profit not cover state expediture on security?

possibly, but most tax isn't ring-fenced.

If you want to try and implement a system where all sales of any merchandise relating to the monarchy and the royal wedding are taxed separately and the tax on the salaries of all employees involved in their production and distribution and the corporate tax of the companies involved and all the money from that is ring fenced for royal security you're free to try.

But i doubt it would be a cheap exercise though and would probably require more money than the actual royal security bill to implement.

Wouldn't it be nicer of you to ask if they want a seat in the car? There's probably enough space that you don't need to kidnap them and put them in the boot.

Although if you want to go kidnapping all the Old Firm fans who hate each other without knowing why and dump them all together somewhere well out of the way of normal civilisation you've got my full support - I'll even chip in a bit for petrol.

If you're being really picky then Celtic play in the SPL rather than the SFL as do the other 11 teams that make up the Scottish Premier League. :p

However it's all slightly pointless semantics in that we can understand the intention of pointing out that Celtic are both Scottish and in a wider sense British - it just depends where you are viewing it from, to someone from the British Isles then it might be a close enough level to make a distinction, to a Russian for instance the distinction is probably insignificant and the wider grouping of British makes more sense.
 
Irrelevant to the accuracy of their registration and affiliation.

You are completly missing the point being made.

Nobody us questioning there registration or affiliation. However when talking about them using the English language it is perfectly correct to describe them as British.

I just googled British and this is the definition from dictionary.com

Brit·ish   
[brit-ish] Show IPA
–adjective
1.
of or pertaining to Great Britain or its inhabitants.
2.
used especially by natives or inhabitants of Great Britain: In this dictionary, “Brit.” is an abbreviation for “British usage.”

Now take the first point and tell me how that doesn't apply.

There would not have been any argument if you'd accepted the fact 3 pages ago
