I've not seen so many Irish in one place since the last time it was my round

I have no issue with the Irish at OT, but I would say this. That contention that many an Irish folk comes to the game as a 'daytripper' is accurate. Now I'm surrounded by Irish folk where I sit, one off this forum, and they all go regularly and are sound folk, get involved with the atmosphere, which is a lot more than can be said for many in my section. But I also see plenty who don't act like this. And I wonder why people single out the Asians as daytripper types who ruin the OT atmosphere when there are probably far more Irish at each game acting in an entirely similar way
