Yes. It looks naff at the rugby when the others all have national anthems and we use the UK one.

 

Can't we just continue to use the UK anthem?

We could do, but thats rubbish. And it's for the UK not England, and on that basis whenever we play Wales or Scotland both sides would have the same song about an old rich woman who lives in a big house and how we should give her stuff. Booorring.

 

We need to follow our Celtic chums lead and have our own tune.

I think what looks and sounds naff are legions of fans attempting to sing a song that they don't know the words to.

If we really must have a national anthem then it should be instrumental - music by Peter Maxwell Davies would be a good choice.

And he's a Master of the Queen's Music. So there.

Just put the words on the programme. Sorted.

But not a Master of The Queen's Navy.

(So he's not a very model of a modern Major-General).
