Don't understand why we have GSTQ as our national anthem. Should be for the UK only

It's so bland and outdated.

Could you imagine the outrage if England had a national anthem which was purely about fighting the Scots?

Poll: best attacking central midfielder?

not many anthems have a tune as weak as ours (maybe liechtenstein).

we should put in a transfer request for the french one...

England would be better off with a rousing military march like Sousa's Liberty Bell

I think most people have stopped singing it just as the band get half way through it cos it’s so slow.

Not really a fan of Flower of Scotland - it's a bit of a dirge IMO.

Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau is a belter though. Went to a Wales game in Euro 2016 and it was fantastic to hear it sung in a packed stadium.

I actually dont disagree with you, although the arrangement they used at the 2012 Olympics is better than the usual one

Jerusalem would make a better anthem

We should have a positive uplifting anthem that accurately reflects our standing in the world and our modern day values:

Isn't Jerusalem a socialist anthem? That would upset a few.

Apologies downvoted by accident, was going to suggest The Impossible Dream’ might be more apt if we’re going down the Matt Monroe route!

I do not believe anyone would be upset to have Jerusalem as our anthem, because it may or may not have socialist roots.
Most folk are not as political as several on here and are not even aware of any socialist leanings it may or may not have - I believe it was used by the suffragettes; I have not checked that out.
