Suppose I would be pushing it with 'Simply The Best'??---HMMMM, better not,

Who needs answers when you can keep asking questions.

Seems to be getting a bit personal at times please keep it to the topic and remember trolling and flaming are against forum rules, might be worth some of you having a refrest on MH post at the top of the page on Forum Rules.

he’s not from Yorkshire, Ave never heard him say “ tha sees thee, tha gonna get some fist”.
However Ave lost count the amount of times he has said “ Yer gonna get shot With an arrow me duck”.

Agreed it's a pathetic song, give us Scotland the Brave or the Dark Isle , even more depressing , the theme from Outlander. my wee pal does a cracking instrumental acoustic version, I'll try and post it

Im Scottish as well, and I am truly sick of Flower of Scotland.
Our anthem should be either 'A Man's A Man for a' That' or 'Hail Caledonia.'

Scotland the Brave would be my choice ?

Rather than getting rid of it, it could be tweaked

How about "Wandering Star" then sports men and womed can get away without knowing the words and just mumble Lee Marvin Style and no one would be any the wiser

You could apply this comment to a number of threads on here yesterday. It's becoming a bit of a drag. Nothing wrong with a bit of banter,

I'd rather have "Donald Where's Yir Troosers?"

Another vote for 'A Man's a Man...' - beautifully and movingly sung at the (re)opening of the Scottish Parliament in 1999. Words that reflect what I'd hope for in a nation and it's peoples.

Mind you - I'd forgotten all about 'Hail Caledonia' - rousing stuff for an anthem though perhaps a bit too much mention of heather, kilt and pipes

See the Telegraph and Daily Mail want the new England manager sacked because he won’t sing GSTK. Ludicrous.

Clickbait . Eye roll and move on. Do you think even the journalists feel embarrassed?

Got to go.

Why did he even mention it? He must have known there would be backlash from certain areas. He has never sung an anthem when he played so no big deal

He was asked by reporters at the news conference.
