How Irish are you?

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

How Irish are you?

Post by Chippy »

I did this last summer but since then we seem to have had a mad influx of paddies, including some cuntslops and geebags. As it is St Pats on Tuesday it might be interesting to see how things have changed. Then 15% were 100%, 13% plastic. About half the forum had a little bit of Irish in them.

I have included the category Gus claimed was missing, can you guess which one??

BTW what happened to Gooner Gal who posted
hmmmm.... i'd sure like a bit of irish in me right now!
