They used to sing it, and it just doesn't work. Can you really imagine Hampden park belting out the British anthem? I don't think so. On the other hand, England shouldn't be stopped singing it. I don't care what they sing. Except for Swing Low, that negro slave song, confusingly adopted to represetn a rugby team. Thats just annoying. Are you being serious?

Goodness no, we shouldn't actually sing it oh no no no no, that’s not what I meant.

It does include a verse with the lines 'And then with a mighty rush, The rebellious Scots we'll crush' in one version at least Possibly the most boring tune in the world, except the new single from Michelle of Pop Idol.
