    How many more of you did what I did when that horrible dirge called "The National Anthem" was played at Wembley?

    Being a good citizen of The Peoples Republic of South Yorkshire I sat down, folded my arms and kept my trap shut.

    No your not a bad person and I totally agree and understand your stance.
    I sang the national anthem not because I agreed with the words in it but it's the national anthem were stuck with until hopefully it's changed.
    I think we should have a anthem that celebrates the people of our country not one person.

    I was seated well before kick off and seem to remember some women singing. But can't for the life of me remember hearing the national anthem being sung.

    Not at all, you're entitled to your opinion. I'm a little bit of a royalist but I don't like the national anthem however I did join in and sing it.

    Jerusalem should be our national anthem.

    My eldest Son was on the concourse when they played it and he sang Ilkley Moor too. I actually hummed The Red Flag.

    You keep making that joke and it wasn't funny before. Clearly you have me confused with somebody else which is understandable considering you confuse being passionate with moaning.

    Have you added to your three visits to Oakwell this season?
