Being forced to watch the footie >:(
Can someone tell me why Wayne Rooney won't sing the national anthem ?
I thought he was playing for England ?
Personally I'd leave him on the bench !

It's so the daily mail have something to put in their `Newspaper`.

I don't follow international football but I do know that Wayne Rooney would not have been on the pitch today due to a ban.

At least 3 of the french players did not join in their national anthem, and they are meant to be very nationalistic, I doubt the french press are making a huge deal of it.

He can't string that many words together in one go.

Why should he?  He's playing for England, not the queen!

It shows pride in the country you play for. I'd give the team an order to sing it, anyone that didn't would be dropped.

That is what I thought,Truthfully I've never paid much attention to the words but believed it to be our countrys song.(note to self pay closer attention ::))
Perhaps we should have a different anthem,that doesn't mention the queen although I've no doubt that would offend many.I didn't think my frivolous post would attract so many opinions  :)

It's not actually sung for the Queen as such it's really for the country and the Queen also has to stand and show respect for it.

macmac

it's always been a country thing for me,perhaps I should have paid greater attention to the  words
But it's  the only anthem we are offered so it; sung in honour of our country not just the queen ?
