This bloke doesn't help himself. Can't wait to see this part in their upcoming documentary.

Good on him, someone that has courage in his convictions.

He is just an attention seeking trouble maker.

Thank the lord the boys going over to Germany are just getting on with things rather than throwing things about the past in the Germans faces.

We never have any chance of moving on with these types of idiots acting like neanderthals.

There is having courage in your convictions and there's being a massive dick. This bloke falls into the latter, for me.

 

[JackSomething]

Agreed. Funny how people loved it when the likes of Tate and Trundle join in with the anti-Cardiff songs, then clutch their pearls when McLean joins in with a song about hating the monarchy.

Who are 'the boys going over to Germany'?

Football fans in being massive snowflakes shocker.

He has every right to stand by his beliefs, a lot went on in Derry back in the day...

He has point of view that’s all. Until you’ve experienced what other people have you can’t see it from their side.

I have a very good knowledge of the attitude of such people like McLean.
Like a broken record here so sorry for all who have to read this. My wife is from Donegal, she was brought up just miles from the boarder.......my father in law a garda for many a year on the Republic side of the border.
I have been confronted by these types whilst regularly visiting Ireland in the early and younger days when I first met my wife, the things I have had to put up with and hear because I'm from Wales and being part of the UK is no ones business......all because they have picked up on my accent!

Luckily the vast majority in Ireland see McLean as the trouble making gobshite he is.
It's happened, it can't be changed, majority of people understand it was wrong as we stand here today........if people are still living with that hatred and bitterness today then that is another matter.
All well and good having your beliefs but there are ways about going about things and McLean clearly likes the attention.

Good on him. The monarchy is a fvcking joke and we're all being taken for mugs by the parasites.

They’re not my beliefs but Maclean has become a pantomime villain. It’s okay for everyone to unload on him but it’s not okay for him to have his say.

I find it strange that fans and then MacLean, think about anti royal songs when celebrating their teams promotion.

It's a Maclean song that they've sung since he joined that happens to reference his disdain of the monarchy. Maclean was walking around the pitch around at that time for a promotion lap of honour. Did you think their fans would suddenly start singing a different song instead or something?
