GUEST,12stringstan	Singing National Anthems at sports event (63* d)	RE: Singing National Anthems at sports event	09 Mar 06
a funny note here. I remember as mentioned, in a byegone day, when in Northern Ireland, at the end of the movie in the "picture house" God save the queen would start. It was the quickest and most effecient way of separating loyalist from republican, because the wearers of the green would be up, amd gone, while those loyal to the crown would stand in honour! Nowadays, we have an all Ireland rugby team, and neither anthem is sung, but a new one altogether. sheesh Where will it all end up. must also mention the GAA (Gaelic Athletic Association) has now opened up it's sacred GAA stadium, Croke Park for the use of soccer & rugby. The first foreign anthem ever to be performed on this "hallowed ground" will be God Save The Queen! Indeed times move on! 12sS
