Hi There,

For Info on Bloody Sunday event please visit our Events Calender ;) Thanks.

is there a bloody sunday parade next month?

My wife and I met some of your members at Bar 67 on Gallowgate Road while visiting my family in Glasgow in October 2009. I think we surprised them, being like-minded but from California. We had a few pints and engaged in some Republican chants. It was a good cultural introduction prior to our visit to Belfast and Derry. We were given a "Calton Republicans" key chain and souveniers from the bar. Tiocfaidh ar la! -Chris Pismo Beach, California.

bloddy sundy 2007 up the provos

good luck we havent gone away and they know it good luck with the upcomeing parade tiocfaidh ar la

cant believe they called of the anti racist march due to the racist that call themself rangers fans but they will never call of the orange walk goes to show we are not really welcome in scotland by anyone by ourself i thought the police job would be to lock up these clowns who threaten us and them
