SpVgg Greuther Fürth
Beating St Pauli 2-0 just now. Barring a major turnaround today and in the next three games, they'll be automatically promoted. They play in green and white hoops. Well done to the German fenians

They are but Furth are as well, can only 1 team be promoted to Bundesliga. It's a shame on Sankt Pauli

Villareal, St. Pauli, Bilbao, Barcelona, Santos Laguna - so many friendships. Unlike that mob.

If someone referred to you as English there wouldn't be a problem, but if they called you an English bastard it's not the same. It's like that.

Yeh, I was calling Furth the German fenians because they are like Celtic, wear hoops, have clover in their badge.
There's a popular Celtic chant "paddy mccourt's fenian army" .. Rangers fans have argued that we shouldn't sing this as we claim it's sectarian when they sing about fenians. Fenian isn't sectarian, it's when it's used in the context it shouldn't that it becomes sectarian, for example "Up to our knees in fenian blood"

It was the name for a large majority of irishmen who tried/try to uprise against the British. It's Irishmen who started the name

Re: SpVgg Greuther Fürth
Fenian also directly translates to Irish warrior.
The only connection the word 'fenian' has with Celtic is that the majority, if not all of their fans are Catholics. As Fenian is a word used as a derogatory term against Catholics.

Re: SpVgg Greuther Fürth
If anyone could fall apart this late in the season and miss promotion it would be these guys. If you want some good info then just dig up the thread I previously created for this team.
