| England football team please 11:17 - Nov 16 with 2124 views | onceablue | Sing the national anthem like the England Rugby team yesterday with passion and pride. Every single player singing with Gusto and a fantastic result. My guess is 3/4 players won’t even bother singing or will make a token effort. |  | | |  |
| England football team please on 11:26 - Nov 16 with 1693 views | You_Bloo_Right | Which national anthem should they sing? AFAIK England does not have an official national anthem (it should be Jerusalem of course). Regardless of the singing, it was a great test match. |  |

Pedantic, but correct. Team England adopted Jerusalem for the Commonwealth Games, and it has been their anthem for about 15 years. It would be good to see other England sports teams do the same. As you say, excellent game of Rugby yesterday. Wish we were playing the Boks next week. It's beginning to look promising for the World Cup. |  | |  |

Not that it means anything. They could stand there in silence and it would make zero difference. They are footballers, not members of a choir. |  |

....unsurprisingly. Apparently he didn't like being told "what to do". What a rebel! |  |

Yes, NZ is a pathetic little country which has never been any good at rugby. |  | |  |

| England football team please on 13:21 - Nov 16 with 1459 views | Trequartista | Personally have never cared about any singing or not singing, but I guess with rugby it's almost part of the game, whereas with football it's pretty irrelevant. |  |

| England football team please on 14:18 - Nov 16 with 1296 views | Perublue | I thought “land of hope and glory” was the official English anthem although I know the cricket team adopted “Jerusalem” around 2005ish and the commonwealth team also as mentioned earlier in a vote for one of the games maybe more. |  |

Tuchel doing his best Phil Daniels impression? Selbstbewusstsein ist eine Vorliebe für den gewohnheitsmäßigen Voyeur des sogenannten Parklebens. Und die morgendliche Suppe lässt sich vermeiden, wenn man einen direkten Weg durch das nimmt, was man als Parkleben kennt. John hat Bierbauch, er lässt sich von den dreckigen Tauben einschüchtern. Sie lieben es, Parkleben zu genießen. Wer ist dieser Bauch-Lord, der da marschiert? Du solltest deinen Schweinefleischkonsum reduzieren, Kumpel, und dich etwas bewegen. |  |

Wait for the result of the match and you will know. Currently it looks like the OP was correct and they didn't sing passionately enough to win but that may well change over the next 70 odd minutes. |  |

At least some of them sang with passion. I was watching the Spain game recently and not one of the lazy Spaniards knew the words. |  |

Is it impossible to be proud unless you sing about the royal family loudly? Seems a strange metric for measuring pride to me |  | |  |

That's awful. GSTK is really simple to learn even if Spanish is your first language. |  |
