Republican Sinn Fein to protest Croker clash
Dalton: England shouldn't play in Croke Park
Friday, 23 February 2007
The party says the fact that tomorrow's match is being played in GAA headquarters represents an unacceptable normalisation of relations between England and Ireland. It is predicting that one hundred and fifty people will turn up for the protest. Vice President Des Dalton said England should not be allowed play rugby in Croke Park. RSF is opposed to both the Good Friday Agreement and the endorsement of the PSNI. It emerged in 1986 as a result of a split in Sinn Féin.
"The fact that they are bringing the game to Croke Park, with the historical and social significance of Croke Park and the place that it holds for the Irish people, which is bringing it to a new level, we would see as very, very significant," he said.
