Or

3. The falkirk fans are ignorant and insular enough to not know the circumstances re McGeadys international choice.

4. The falkirk fans are inconsistent enought to boo young men who choose to play for another country while cheering men who choose to play for Scotland when they were not born in Scotland.

5. The Lurgan bigot is actually the lurgan victim of bigotry. How can you call Lennon, who was proud to play for Northern Ireland a bigot? It was the booing by bigots that stopped Lennon playing for NI coupled with the death threat graffitti in his home town wher his parents live. I find it stunning that man who has suffered the abuse Lennon has suffered, including death threats in NI, where these things can easily become more than threats, is the one considered the bigot and somehow to blame for his attacks on him.

Do you think English fans all booed Sturat McCall at every ground? Or ryan Giggs? Or Nigel Quashie or Neil Sullivan? Of course they don't.

I wouldn't assume that someone is 'insular' just because they don't know the details of his actions. I didn't know the details till I read about them after they were mentioned here. Regardless, I would put it down to a bit of banter from the Falkirk fans - looking for a way to disrupt a Celtic team that was putting their side away without much bother.

1. the booing stated b4 ra sellik scored.
2. i applaud any englishman or otherwise who chooses to play for scotland, though some of the pish stained tartan army cannot hide their displeasure.
3. i despise any wee ratbag who IS scottish leaving his own behind.

ie. come to me and you'll be loved, leave me after being loved then you are a wee s***e.

4. the lurgan bigot is a bigot, how else can you explain his 'dirty orange bastards' outburst. what if wee barry screamed 'papist bastards' at the celtic fans or spat on there scarves-would he be a bigot or goaded into biggoted action.

Aiden McGeady played for Celtic youth teams when he was 14.

Celtic did not allow players signed "S" form with them to turn at for their schools after the age of 14. (Rangers and other clubs have the same practice.)

The SFA do not allow boys who do not play for their schools to play for Scotland at under-15 and under-16 level (this may have changed recently).

McGeady was asked to play at Under-15 level for Ireland as one of his parents is Irish. He accepted as he was not allowed to play for Scotland.

A few years later Scotland asked him to play for their Under 17 team. He turned them down after a lot of consideration as he had a built a strong relationship with Brian Kerr and the Irish set up after being there for a few years.

Most other kids who miss out for Scotland at Under 15s when they are at Celtic dont have the chance to play for another country so when the SFA coma back in at Under 17 they will not have the same difficult dilemma that McGeady had to make.

He has never been selected to play for Scotland since he was 16!

Questions -
What would you have done in his shoes if your parents had moved to England and you were born there. Would you play for Scotland or England?

Whay would you have done at 15 if you were asked to be an international player for one team when the other team you wanted to play for hadn't asked?

If McGeady was s***e and had been capped by Northern Ireland and never asked to play for Scotland would anyone be booing him?

So we can expect a round of booing equivalent to what McGeady got when Motherwell next visit Falkirk? Brian Maclean, former Rangers player and born in Scotland of Scottish parents has just accepted the offer of playing for Northern Ireland. Somehow I doubt that he will get even remotely the treatment Aiden got if even booed at all.

maybe that's because he isn't as high profile, or because he doesn;t play for one of the old firm.

be really interesting to see how the rangers' fans would have treated mcgeady had he played for them.
