Just was wondering if we should sing the National Anthem when we play Liverpool at home and see if they join in after booing it in the Charity Sheild last week..

To achieve what?

perhaps to show the King (our Royal supporter) that we care about him and the anthem (yes I am being mischievous )

It’s a YES from me , I’m British , not scouse

This would be tragic behaviour but slightly less tragic than the singing about food banks the last time they came here.

It's just a bit of banter as i can't get my head around it why they would want to boo there own National Anthem , they are British aren't they ..

I’d be happy for a win and 90 minutes of chanting ‘you Scouse bastards’ at them.

Ridiculous thread. And no, I wouldn’t sing it.

What an excellent idea. I wish I’d thought of it. Nothing like reciting a dirge to a nonexistent being in the sky to save an incredibly rich entitled person who lives in a palace; well several. Perhaps our own religious weirdos could invite him. That would put the cherry on the icing on the cake!!!!!

I presume your talking about Christians being the religious weirdos because before so long if you mean any other weirdos you may be up for blasphemy,but it’s ok to kick our own religious weirdos ,by the way I only tend to visit a church for weddings ,funerals and Christenings so I’m not a religious weirdo.

Who can blame them

Scousers are now at least 4 generations away from being 100% Irish and now for some reason they really like to think they are not English.Not so long ago quite a few Liverpool lads used to follow England awayI can't really put my finger on them being anti English but if they are that bothered why don't they form Merseyside league or even relocate their team to Dublin and play in Ireland

I have to admire Scousers and their guile.

How would you feel about your country when your own government suggested managed decline of your area.

I have sympathy for them.

A very quick 'google'and you'll be able to find the reasons...
