Yeah. It's sad that it happens and the people who were instigating it are shit but these things happen. Just have to respond to them in a better way.

I agree with LSD on this one guy in Paris asked me if I was English I said no Irish he said you hate the English then and noddedAh yes, we've finally the got the.. When I told *insert foreign national here* I was Irish/Scottish they treated me like a king and offered up a daughter for marriage spiel
You boys are like a broken clock
It is an undeniable fact that the Irish are nice people generally. I like them alot.Ah yes, we've finally the got the.. When I told *insert foreign national here* I was Irish/Scottish they treated me like a king and offered up a daughter for marriage spiel
You boys are like a broken clock
Do you go outside, in the real world?
Yet you support an English clubI agree with LSD on this one guy in Paris asked me if I was English I said no Irish he said you hate the English then and nodded
how silly you must feelI guess he won't get deported to Greece to serve time if sentenced.
This thread has now turned into English against Irish thing. Silly season.
In fairness it’s probably true to an extent. Brits on hols are despised by many of the local population.Ah yes, we've finally the got the.. When I told *insert foreign national here* I was Irish/Scottish they treated me like a king and offered up a daughter for marriage spiel
You boys are like a broken clock
Is it any surprise though? We’re a feckin nightmare
Older Brits on hols with the family are cool enough but lads holidays and girls holidays for that matter cause them absolutely no end of grief.
When I lived in Spain the locals would hate the holiday season and you will usually find the locals try to live slightly away from the main high streets / nightlife for exactly this reason.
Didn’t say I hated English (Don’t give a feck) this is what the guy said to me, thought it was funny.Yet you support an English club
Meh, Paris. Nobody likes the French. Not even the French.I agree with LSD on this one guy in Paris asked me if I was English I said no Irish he said you hate the English then and nodded
Apart from the old child abusing priests and that. Perhaps likeable / friendly rather than nice? Other than in the general sense that the majority of people everywhere are nice I suppose.
What even is this?
The French are a moody bunch aren’t they, still funny but.
This survey from 2009 says a lot. In European countries hoteliers voted Brits as the worst tourists but in non-European countries they were voted the second best tourists behind the Japanese.

There‘s a type of British tourist that gives us a bad name.

How very dare you. I'm Irish and I think I can speak for Irishmen everywhere when I say that never, NEVER! has one of my countrymen behaved like a dick while under the influence of alcohol abroad. The very idea. Pfffft.Ah yes, we've finally the got the.. When I told *insert foreign national here* I was Irish/Scottish they treated me like a king and offered up a daughter for marriage spiel

Not to mention the travellers that go around parking their caravans wherever they like, stealing and harassing the local folk and leaving trash all over the place once they leave.. but obviously we can’t all tar people with the same brush right?!
Now we are stereotyping every country. Should we not just close this thread? The anti English brigade have stank this place out long enough.
That's a childish comment to be honest. Why bring Priests into the argument. I didn't say there are no murderers or criminals who are Irish. Every society has its bad elements but talking from my own experience Irish people are nice. Likeable or not they tend to be people who mean well. That's what matters in life anyway. Being nice to others and personally I have experienced that alot from Irish people than anyone else.
This thread has taken a very weird turn.
Taking a thread off topic
So you're saying many of the priests in Ireland didn't abuse children and institutionally cover it up?
This is one of the worst threads I have seen on the site. Not worth checking again
Yes. I go to bars and clubs quite often, I just manage not to fight people. Granted I don't receive any abuse at these places, but I'd like to think if I did, I would respond better.
Hmm time to ignore this thread.
Bizarre.
Bizarre.
What like your national treasure Tyson Fury?
Hasn't it just? The 'let's air national grievances' thread. Now with less Maguire.
So I go into this thread and the first phrase I read is "child abusing priests".
65m of people with the same character?
WTF was that even aboutI think that is very exaggerated, and it would depend very much on where you travel. In some parts of southern Europe, perhaps, but otherwise there is no bias against British people.
Is that who Harry was fighting?? My captain
I liked the French btw found them much more friendly than the Spanish.65m of people with the same character?
You don't know the french, they are not a single entity. And you don't know the Spanish either because they are also not a single entity. Maybe you know people that happens to be french or spanish that you like or dislike though.
So do you know the French then or is it only me who can’t know them and only you am lost?
Yet, we don´t know the build up to the situation and why the situation escalated.. Mind that footballers live under a lot of pressure the whole year, and when they finally get a chance to party, there might be a lot of steam that needs to come off. If Maguire stood up for his friends and family, and for United as well, why would not a United fan take his side.
Greek Police have set a Bail for Harry McGuire at €5000.
Man United have offered €3000 plus Phil Jones and Jesse Lingard
Man United have offered €3000 plus Phil Jones and Jesse Lingard
Footballers and football fans basically
They are not a single entity, not hard whats being said
