Madam, – Ray O Donnchadha (February 17th) and Jarlath Daly (February 19th) suggested adopting both the national anthem (Amhrán na bhFiann) and the Tri-colour as our anthem and representative flag at Irish rugby matches. Are the two gentlemen as willing to dispose of the quality rugby players and loyal supporters, from Northern Ireland, who are not represented by that anthem or flag? – Yours, etc,
