Doesnt sound a fair fight to me, the irish are all fucking drift gods, its like brazil playing leyton orient surely?

Most the top Irish have entered the UK championships each year for years.

Have they ever won the championship?

No.

(tho 2nd n 3rd this year were from Northern Ireland this year, strangley enough, and count for the UK team)
