Part of me wants Ireland to get knocked out of the Rugby World Cup.
Reason: only the bourgeoisie in Ireland play rugby. The working class mock them and their weird accents.
But Ireland have never won a World Cup in anyfuckingthng so maybe now I am a traitor? Should I swear loyalty to the Queen??
I think you can support Ireland without any concern. Like other commentators have said, its just sports. In the World Cup last year I went to a local pub for the Canada matches and had a great time cheering for the team despite obviously hating 98% of what Canada is all about.
Its fun to have something to enjoy with others in your community if you can, one of the big reasons I like sports.
