MC11 Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 (edited) All shite. Makes us come across as a joke. All the drum beating etc etc. rule Britannia... It's all cringeworthy. Get "swing Low, sweet chariot" on the go it worked in the rugby and I couldn't care less if it's origins are welsh.

Guest Nikica Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 I'm not into the pro-Britain bollocks but I haven't got a problem with people singing that stuff as long as it's peaceful and not harmful to others. However, that brass band has been playing the same shite tunes for about twenty years now. They need to get some new material Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck knows how England rugby got hold of it. But I agree most of England's songs are pretty awful.....and Rule Bitannia is about Britain, not England so it's a bit daft. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MC11 Posted May 26, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 People may disagree but for me the current songs put a carnival atmosphere in the air. As though this is all one big joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I sort of get what you mean. What's the point in some mental brass band playing shite tunes at a football game? It's like the vuvuzelas, part of a certain culture but fairly annoying.

Guest Nikica Posted May 26, 2014 Report Share Posted May 26, 2014 Flower of Scotland's a decent song Aye, I'm not really patriotic as such, but speaking objectively it is a pretty nice song. I like it, although the lyrics glorify war (even if it was defensive) and that doesn't really sit that well with me.

Was about to say you are a harsh man But yeah, it is a good song. Shame we won't hear it this summer. As I say I'm not patriotic generally but I like to see our national team do well.
