    Well, ive never seen anyone who wasnt british use one, so i would have presumed he uses it because he is from britain.

    To be fair, the use of the British flag specifically as a fashion statement is widespread throughout Europe and Asia. In any European or Asian city or town you'll see dozens of people walking around with British flag t-shirts, bags, jumpers et al. Not because they're British: because they like the colours and the design.

    It's also long been a part of the punk and mod aesthetics so there is a subculture attached to it.

    That is not to deny your central point about the Gallaghers being British-born Britons from Britain who make use of British flags to a British audience in Britain - that was your original point, wasn't it? To drive that home? - but I think it's more nuanced than you're suggesting.

    Incidentally, since you seem so intent on basic facts, I'm sure you're aware that the Gallaghers are also Irish citizens by descent, given that both of their parents are Irish-born Irish people from, um, Ireland. It is this Irishness that Gallagher alludes to in many of the quotes posted on here, and in his support of Celtic.

    Love this thread! Up and coming MMA fighter and UFC star Conor McGregor is one of us. He just had a small interaction with Stokesy on twitter aswell.

    Bump.

    Dunno if this has been mentioned before but I just found out Jack O'Connell who played Cook from Skins is a tim. Must have Irish parents or something. Follows Wolfe tones on Twitter too and says he supports Ireland over England.

    Why the heck is Celtic such a 'fashionable' club to support? :smiley-laughing002:

    So much for our 'reputation' being hampered.

    Don't know if anyone posted this but Billy Joe Saunders, British boxing champ is a tim. Was wearing the black Celtic Top with tri colour trim while working out in the gym. He's another gypsy fighter like big tyson.
