English National Anthem

[sainthelens]

Being played before every game this weekend.
Anyone know if its being given an airing here today.
My suggestion would be not too, then again will certainly fire things up if it is.

 

[Risc]

Would be ridiculous to do it here

Wouldn't surprise me Risc given the circus of events we've witnessed here past 8 months.

You could always give it the Anfield treatment.

I think that the argument will be that it’s the British National Anthem, which includes Wales. England doesn’t have a separate anthem of its own like us.

 

[Ringwood Jack]

England should have their own anthem. Surprised they have held on to the National UK anthem so long.

It is about time there was a national anthem for England. GSTK is the UK national anthem but is stuffed down our throats as an English one by numpties often seen in the visiting end. As soon as they have one maybe we can sing about where the chariots should be put.

 

[sainthelens]

Give em Jerusalem as their anthem. The cvnts in the away end will never know the words.

So, who decided that we must use the English "anthem" as the collective UK song.... excluding the bit about "rebellious Scots", of course?!

Well done to the club for not bothering with that nonsense.

And well done to the swans for their vocal opinions on it.

A proud Swansea City fan tonight

Funny how people are happy to travel on a UK passport but object to the UK National Anthem.

Guess the Welsh Nationalist would prefer us to play in the Welsh National League in front of 500 every week.

If we could travel on a Welsh passport we would, happy to clarify that for you

That wouldn't get us past Newport.

That may just be the weakest straw man argument I've ever seen.

Its the british anthem. IMO the English anthem should be jerusalem
