The Ducks of Magheralin - Rare Orange Song

Thank you all for 1000th Subscribers! I'm not sure how to celebrate really apart from a Q&A but I'm not sold on that idea as of now, but if you have any suggestions feel free to put them in the comments!
The village and parish of Magheralin are located in the County Armagh townland of Moira and barony of Lower Iveagh. Since the eighth century, a church and monastic community have been situated there. The town's weavers were referred to as the "Ducks of Magheralin" because they used duck oil to lubricate their looms.

I'm pretty sure it says "Grand old city", not "random old city" it's the Irish accent and vocabulary.

Thank you I'm not the best with the Irish accent 💀

[@Alfred5555]

@@AngloWelshProductions It's understandable, my ears are only so sensitive to it because my mother and her side of the family are Irish.

Pretty much every loyalist song is absolutely awful, but this is a rarity. This and the Sash. I wonder if its maybe because it's technically not a loyalist song, lol.

[@Kmc1qlAq8Dt6tpVC]

Number One Platoon, Our union Jack, Build My Gallows , all good songs

[@georgelabe-assimo4365]

It is genuinely a stark night and day comparison listening to loyalist songs vs. rebel ones. I’ve got no real stake in the whole thing myself, but if I had to choose a side solely on the music alone, the republicans get my vote lol

[@fintonmainz7845]

Nice song. Ironic is the fact that Orangemen supported the rebellion of the United Irishmen and would have welcomed Napoleon if he had invaded Ireland. Just like they welcomed King William of Orange.
Only severe oppression by English troops in Ulster broke the will of Ulster Protestants .

[@fyrdman2185]

The Orangemen made up the bulk of the Yeomen loyalist not the United Irishmen.

[@fintonmainz7845]

@@fyrdman2185 They were in both

[@fyrdman2185]

@@fintonmainz7845 so it was not English oppression then when even the main general who commanded the British army to put down the rebellion was a Scot. And there were lots of loyalists in Ulster, a significant amount in fact.

Orangemen were the bulk of the Yeomanry that fought the United Irishmans rebellion and were formed to defned against a possible french invasion lol.
