We can't have Land of hope and glory either. Imagine our athletes on the podium bobbing up and down like those twats at the proms. They'd look like right c**ts.
We had LOH&G at the 2002 Commonwealth Games here in Manchester. It was great singing along to it. You can't really sing along to Jerusalem in the same way.

This is my choice.

Great shout. I could definitely get behind that rather than Jerusalem. Never really being a fan of Land of Hope and Glory as it really needs a proper orchestra to do it justice with the lead in time to the popular bit.

I Vow To Thee has no overtly religious lyrics unlike Hope and Glory and Jerusalem but is pure patriotism. Some of the players might actually understand giving a shit after singing it too. A fitting tribute to the British soldiers from the First World War too.

Not Jeruselum, as boring as the one that's sung now.

Land Of Hope and Glory or Rule Britannia or something like that. Something that gets even the most unpatriotic person like me going whilst it's sung!
