Anyone know if the FA Cup hym will be sang before our game, or is it just for the final. I really hope it does, there will be a few tears knocking about. If not just have to wait till the final, fingers crossed. Will be a very special moment. Gives me shivers just thinking about it.
I'm pretty sure it's just for the final. Don't recall hearing it at the semis in the past. Anyway, it's toss these days. They always get some professional operatic warblers to bang it out loudly enough to drown the crowd's efforts. And if they do sing it on Sunday, if the rugby's owt to go by, the Welshies will comprehensively out-sing us anyway. Not fond of 'em but nobody sings hymns at sporting events quite like the Welsh.
I'll wager had we a national anthem that meant anything to anyone or was rousing we would give them a run for thier money
I'm assuming it has some personal significance for you, but to the general fan isn't it too linked with Liverpool/Celtic now to have any deep meaning elsewhere? Lets do Red Flag / Jerusalem instead.
