Flower of Scotland is a lot more atmospheric too. Without meaning to upset Chest, that’s because they celebrate places and not people, which goes back to my point about English people hearing a posh voice and becoming subservient. I think the best option is to adopt the Chile anthem and have Zamorano lead the singing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cobra_gordo Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 I tend to zone out during our national anthem and replace it with this in my head. Â Â Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They could at least respond in the same spirit. EDIT: On mature reflection regarding Jerusalem, I think one of the reasons why I thought it would be good is because William Blake was fairly decent - anti-slavery, very anti-establishment.

Mr Lawrence Posted July 9, 2021 Share Posted July 9, 2021 This has turned into a terrible thread since England have started doing well. Politics, Politics, Politics. Thought it was a football thread? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the time difference in Europe, it seems unnecessarily late. Evening kickoffs are usually around 8 anyway, although I think some Spanish football matches in la liga start even later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
