Quote: Old Darlin "Jerusalem is a tremendous anthem.

Land of Hope and Glory helped visibly lift GB in 1990.'"


couldnt agree more, first test at Wembley in 1990 showed how fired up it got the team, and knocked the ockers off their stride when the two teams came out with it being belted out by the fans.

It's their nature.[/quote:24qn1m99] Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good.

Quote: Catalancs "The RFL asked which anthem/hymn fans would like to have as the officiall anthem of the England national team in a survey around about two years ago. I voted for Jerusalem, but obviously the majority went for God save the queen as that's what we're still lumbered with.

Don't believe in god, don't see the point of the queen.
Jerusalem, please.'"


I take it that you don't understand what Jerusalem is then?

It is the first hymn sung at the beginning of a church service, which is in praise of God in whose presence everyone has assembled.

You dont believe in God, but you would prefer Jerusalem which includes the line
"And was the holy Lamb of God, On England’s pleasant pastures seen" ?

With a lot of "nnnnnngggggggnnnnnngngnnngggnngngngggnng" noises and clinking empty tinnies together for the rest of the song. Worse noise than a football match in South Africa!

At least if we use God Save the Queen it will remind the Aussies that she is still their Head of State and they are essentially just a subsidiary of the UK to which we used to send our criminals and from which we now get cheap bar labour

Every cloud and all that!

You know more than me icon_razz.gif




Talking of anthems, the national anthem of Australia is a bit stupid, really.

"Our home is girt by sea".

girt=encircle, surrounded.

Now, correct me if i'm wrong, but isn't that pretty much the definition of Land? the bit that isn't sea?

Well, if we're going down that route, what about Chumbawamba "Tubthumping" (also known as "I Get Knocked Down"icon_wink.gif?

It’s likely to be quite appropriate too.

And apparantly there are some pretty nasty spiders and reptiles there too icon_biggrin.gif .

In the Commonwealth Games Northern Ireland have the best anthem : 'The Londonderry Air' or 'Danny Boy' to you and me.
