havanatopia Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 Good news. Should not even be going to what is, in reality, the inaugural Brown Paper Bag Cup; the second will be in 4 years time then its back to the World Cup. It will be ugly.

Phileas Fogg Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 That’s a shame. Even as recently as 2006 I remember the World Cup song being quite a big deal at the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZiderEyed Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 Three Lions on a Shirt is the pinnacle of English songwriting imo. Makes Lennon, Plant and Clapton look like BTEC music students. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

downendcity Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 The 1970's song has been updated for this years WC Back home they'll be apathetic When we are far away Back home they'll be expecting the worst In every game we play They'll moan at every goal we concede Out there we will still hear them plead You're just a bunch of overpaid tossers Why don't you go back home Back home they'll be watching and waiting expecting us to lose Back home though they think we are useless That's what we've got to prove Once more we will meet with the best Like before we'll be put to the test Once more we will fail and fall far short and end up back home They'll see as they're watching and praying That we put our hearts in playing for our clubs, not the nation so no surprise that were early on the plane back home Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZiderEyed Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 Be nice to see a bit of passion and love for your country on the pitch this year. Actually singing the national anthem for one. Bit of pride in where you're from, don't get embarrassed, I'll be happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SimonR Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 Quite happy about that to be honest, it would have most likely been another awful ed sheeran song. Just think how embarassing that would have been. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame our national anthem is a complete durge to sing and hear (although the vid of Euro 96 team singing it is an exception), I would much prefer Land of Hope and Glory, maybe they will change it for me when the Queen bows out (excuse the pun) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally got a bit of an issue with singing my ever loving praise of a woman I've never met, but it's ours so guess were stuck with it. Men of Harlech and Flower of Scotland are far, far better.

Its about as inspiring as singing about a prostitute called Irene. I take an issue with singing about an imaginary figure saving someone who was born into a position of being untouchable.

Yeah it's hardly awe inspiring. Despite that though if I was on that pitch I'd be belting it out like my life depended on it just because of what it represents. Like I said in my other post, change it to Jerusalem and I'd be happy. Even Step On by the happy Mondays evokes more in me than gstq. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gert Mare Posted May 10, 2018 Report Share Posted May 10, 2018 I’ve got one. It’s called ‘Back Home’. It goes like this..... Back Home.
