James McClean receives vile 'Happy birthday and die' card containing references to Hitler and Bloody Sunday
The Republic of Ireland and Stoke City winger, who turned 30 on April 22nd, was sent the card which labelled Irish people a 'race of inbred, subhuman, parasites' and called McClean 'a two faced hypercritical (sic) b******' and a 'Fenian sub-human b****'.
The card, which McClean posted on his Twitter account, also made offensive references to Bloody Sunday. It read: “Bloody Sunday. Bloody Good laugh. 13 Nil to us. Ha, ha, ha, ha. Should have been 13,000 of you sub human b*******."

“1981 Bobby Sands Slimmer of the Year," it read inside. "Stupid b****** starves himself to death so he could be slimmer of the year.
“1987. FA Cup. Ulster. SAS 7 IRA 0. Good win. 1989. Gibraltar Cup Final SAS 3 IRA 0. Two good away wins."
It then launches into a rambling tirade about how Hitler would have 'sorted the IRA in a month'.

“They should have put the Waffen S.S in Ireland. They would have used scorched earth tactics not like British politicians licking IRA a****.
“The f****** Irish will do anything for poxy Ireland, except live in that s*******."
McClean shared the card on social media, accompanied with the caption: 'No words needed'.
