I was totally gutted when he was struck down with Parkinson's Disease, still full of admiration for him as he battles the Disease.

My dad was a personal friend of Billy Connolly and his band mate Tam Harvey, when he wasnt yet famous and his band was 'The Humblebums'. He came from Partick, and wasnt really a football fan at all. He just uses it for the banter. He loves a laugh and music, but not really into football, except to joke about it. Love the guy, he's genuis.

As a Celtic fan. The first time I heard this joke by Billy I'd imagined it as a Celtic fan going into the Rangers end. But years later (when I'd practically forgotten the joke) a Rangers fan who I worked alongside, told me the joke but he was imagining it as a Rangers fan going into the Celtic end. Works for both, it's just a great joke.

Far less well known is the ‘Alternative Ulster Covenant’, signed in October 1913 by some twelve thousand Protestants from County Antrim in support of Home Rule and against partition. The Alternative Covenant was written by Rev JB Armour and Roger Casement.

a quote from the Covenant: ‘Ulstermen have been sold by political trickery, arming and drilling against the perceived enemy. The enemy they are been led against, is no enemy at all: Catholic Ireland, Nationalist Ireland, desires not triumph over Ulster, they seek only friendship and goodwill.’ Casement appealed to the spirit of 1798, when Irish Catholics and Protestants had fought together for an independent Republic.

The way it should be. Although I do personally believe it was a Rangers fan who got lost in the Celtic section :p

@WorshipInTruth Well, there are several conflicting studies. No mass study of the whole population has ever been conducted. I know of a village in Cheshire where the inhabitants are pretty much decended from the people who lived there before the celts arrived. A study on another sample showed significant traces of Germanic and Fresian DNA. The Irish themselves are not exactly a pure ethnic group.
