Jambbie, you love cricket .. and you are from Dublin … yuo dont see anything wrong in calling someone who declares himself 100% Irish a foreigner … Man, you are a tool … go see a doctor… seriously

@cal mooney
Read the article ya jewel before you u demand I see a doc.
It points out that Michael Hoey is from Northern Ireland and the last time I checked they have a different currency among other things. Damien McGrane is from Co. Meath not part of Northern Ireland.
Where did I say Michael Hoey is a foreigner.
What a clown, Think before u post stupid comments, and wtf has my interest in cricket got to do with this article ya gonk.

Once more for slow readers like Jambie …
Even ifh you are from Dublin, you are complaining about Journal.ie saying that Hoey is a compatriot of McGrane…. I was born in Belfast, so i am fully aware of the currency the North uses. However, that does not make me a foreigner. Hoey and I both have Irish passports. But i am guessing some ignorant and racist people have issues with people like me (ie we dont play cricket, so therefore we are not Irish????). I live in the South… i dont see a border .. Does anyone see a physical border? If anyone from the North wants to declare themselves Irish, accept it. If someone from the North declares themselves British accept it. If someone decalres themsleves “Northern Iris”h, accept it… Given our history, we are at least entiteled to be whatever we want to be …
But for ignoramouses like Jambie … in GOLF parle …. All Ireland golfers, plays under the golf union of Ireland…. so the Journalie is 100% right to call them a compatriot … Journal.ie didnt spell it out for people who know nothing about golf, but understand everything about cricket, they didnt expect people to bring politics into such a simple sports topic ….

Hey guys Nobody cares ok.
