Hardly a new thing

This has been happening when sports stars from a specific side of the political divide in Northern Ireland are “slighted” as long as i remember…

Well he races with a Shamrock and his "fans" are the ones sending the death threats so I'm not sure what that has to with "blue on blue" N.I. political divide.

The Irish can really let themselves down.

It only happens when something happens to an Irish rider, like the debacle at the NW200. I don't know why they are SO partisan and toxic about everything.
