I'm Irish and i literally rolled around the floor laughing when i first saw that sketch on ITV. If you can't laugh at yourselves, then what can you do!
Excellent. We Irish are known for being able to laugh at ourselves, so I don't see what everyone was getting bent out of shape for. I remember seeing it on tv and I knew it would cause some controversy.
"The next morning none of the experts gave us the slightest chance They said the English team would lead us on a merry dance With their Union Jacks all them English fans for victory they were set Until Ray Houghton got the ball and he stuck it in the net!" a couple of classic lines from christy moores song "joxer goes to stuttgart
Get a grip, it does use every cliche going but it's all a bit of harmless banter and the goal will be remembered a lot longer than this sketch will be.

This clip is hilarious and not remotely offensive. I remember hearing the commotion afterwards and thinking people really need to get a life.

Being Irish I don't like it! The best bit about this video though is the fact that England were beaten by Ireland.
Baddiel. Racist.
The IRA guy is too much. The rest is great stuff
