Talk:Belfast Celtic F.C.

message: Shouldn't we explicitly say that this was the big Catholic team?  And shouldn't we say this for other Northern Ireland teams, when appropriate? We discuss sectarianism straight out in Celtic F.C., for instance. john k 23:52, 20 June 2006 (UTC)

message: The match on 29 May 1949 was not against the Scotland national team. It was part of a North American tour by an S.F.A. XI side. See the webpage ( http://www.rsssf.com/tablesb/britishfatours.html ) for an explanation of what the Scottish FA XI was. As the webpage says, "The touring teams varied in strength over the years - on some occasions the teams were 
virtually identical to the full national teams in terms of personnel, but it must be emphasized that even in those cases, the matches were not recognized as full internationals, 
and no caps were awarded." The Scottish FA XI sides (like their English, Welsh and Irish FA counterparts) went on tours, usually abroad, which sometimes included quite a number of matches. Unlike the national teams, they played mainly against club and local representative sides; only occasionally playing international teams. When the FA XIs went overseas, the tours were sometimes wrongly advertised as visits by the full international teams of Scotland, England or Wales and their opponents often believed that this was who they were playing against. Some countries recorded official international matches against 'England' or 'Scotland' that were actually against English FA and Scottish FA XI sides but then removed them in the 1980s, when they discovered that their opponents had not actually been international teams.. I suspect that the Australian national team were quite pleased to be able to expunge from their official record their 17-0 defeat by 'England' on 30 June, 1951! The exception to this rule is the USA's match against 'Scotland' on 19 June, 1949 on Randall's Island. This involved the same Scottish FA XI squad that had lost to Belfast Celtic three weeks earlier at the same stadium. For some reason, the U.S. Football Association continues to list this as an official international match against Scotland.
I fear that there is little point in trying to correct the misinformation in this article because there are still many published sources that wrongly list Scottish FA and English FA XI games as Scotland and England full international matches; which would give users cause for dispute and 'edit wars'.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.156.209.194 (talk) 17:04, 28 August 2019 (UTC)
