    Why would they, it doesn't reflect their, or the managers identity. It should be binned asap and replaced with something more appropriate to all...Until then boo it loud and proud.

    Disagree with this comment-having served in NI I can assure you that it means a great deal to many of them.

    Do we boo the Japanese/German/Argentinian/Éire anthems with such vigour or at all? Totally disrespectful.

    It's a country that's reached a demographic tipping point, quite possibly the majority now have very little or no affinity with the English royal family and many chose to support the republic instead....The Irish rugby union got it right by adopting Ireland's call, a unifying anthem free of any of the sectarian/political allegiances of either of the two official national anthems. It sends a message that all are welcome regardless of religious creed or how people perceive the contentious issues that surround Irelands pretty fuked anomalies regarding national identity , the ifa could learn a lesson..

    You do realise a lot of Welsh support the Éire side of things? With them being Celts and all.

    I never said it was yours. I said a lot of Welsh.
