Judging by some off the replies on here it looks like we are stuck with theses Ing-gor-lund numpties for quite some time, or at least until we have a few poor seasons

Football neanderthals. What do you expect? Racist, sexist, thuggish, homophobic, nasty wastes of space.

This is my problem with them; that they are born into privilege.

What Peckerwood said is pretty much the arguement of a friend of mine; they don't do any harm, they have no power anymore, bring in tourism, etc.

I think that there are plenty of other tourists attractions in the country, and in London, for the tourism industry to survive. I don't understand the fascination with Royals, I'm not sure I'd go to London and take photos of Buck house, but then again I don't understand the fascination with a lot of things. Each to their own, I guess.

i dont personally see it as that big of a deal.

national anthems have never been important to me, and i cant see why the welsh national was played when the game wasnt an international game.

i did stand for the anthem, but it didnt bother me at all that people were chanting god save the queen. i couldnt care less if people chanted over our anthem.

just my personal opinion though, as i said i dont see them as being that important.

I think it was just because they had the choir there and available. I remember Derby County playing on the BBC last season (I think it was Newcastle or West Brom), and they had a marching band playing GSTQ. Was very confusing, but I think that was a similar situation; they just happened to have the accessibility to the band and used it pre-match.

I think it would've been nice for our fans to show more respect to the anthem, if not out of politeness, at the very least considering some of the Warrington greats that country has produced.

Royal Family = More Tourism = More money coming in than they actually spend.

As Johnny Rotten said "All tourists are MONEY!!"

What a load of pork chops.

Did she build Buckinhgam Palace, Windsor Castle, Tower of london, Houses of Parliament and Alton Towers. If the monarchy was ditched tomorrow and they were forced homeless and lived under the arches of Southwark Bridge, then there would still be plenty of tourism to see the likes of Buckingham Place, Windsor Castle, Tower of london, etc etc.

Tourists rarely see the Queen, yet frequently visit the historic sites of london and the rest of the country, that's what they come to see, not the Queen, and they will still come to see them whether she dies tomorrow or was dethroned and slung under the arches.

History among others things brins tourism to this country, not the Queen.

What the hell are you on about? It's their ground, if they want to play and sing their anthem to get the crowd going, and create a feeling of them being a Welsh club, then good on them.

Do you complain that we play Tom Hark when we score a try but then don't respect the away team's tries, for example by playing Bully Bully when Bradford score?

It's up to them what they do, and they have no need to play the English anthem at all.

The whole sheep-sh@gging thing is based on a racist stereotype.

I do. It's cringeworthy and in my opinion it flattens the atmosphere rather than adds to it. It was particularly noticeable when we scored in the semi and final last year and after a split second of unparralleled exhuberance, right on cue came Tom Hark and thousands of people stopped celebrating naturally and simply turned into performing seals.

Real atmosphere killed stone dead at the push of a button.

Leeds don't play music after they score a try and Headingley has argubly the best atmosphere in the league. There's a lot to be said for letting people celebrate naturally.

Personally I don't mind TH, as long as there is a delay. When it is played instantly, I agree with you, but when there is a decent period of time to celebrate and then they play it, it extends the celebration, and IMHO works well.

Either way, it wasn't really the point of my post!

because they haven't finished playing "Marching all-together" until 20 minutes into the first half.
