O’Neill & Beattie

“Anti-Racism World Cup. In memory of Dick O’Neill, Springfield Road, who fell [in the Spanish Civil War] at Jarama 14th February 1937, and, William Beattie, Wilton Street, Shankill Road, who fell at Brunete 23rd July 1937. No Pasarán!” Both towns are near Madrid. The flags are those of the International Brigade and the Irish Citizen Army.

See also the other tribute to the cross-community draw of International Brigade: Break The Connection With Capitalism.

The Anti-Racism World Cup is a soccer tournament held at the grounds of Donegal Celtic. See East Meets West.
