This was awesome! I just wanted to share with all of Dakka's non-American members, and those that pay no attention to football.

At least it wasn't like your usual version where you get one of them r&b/soul singers that sing all round the fething song and it takes about half an hour.

Do it like us cut 3 or 4 verses out (even the cool one about killing rebellious Scots) shout it while pished and get on with the hooliganism.....er I mean sport!

No, that would be jerusalem.

Ingerlund! is what we allow the plebs to sing when they can't deal with complicate lyrics or proper sports.

Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.

I don't think the flag is big enough.

And I know Americans don't believe in spelling things properly, but was that guy even singing in English?

No, she's British, but not English. Unless I'm mistaken, England, Scotland, and Wales make up Britain, ergo they're all British.

The civilizing influence of England has yet to reach Scotland I am afraid

They only believe in one vowel sound for example. We've been trying but the only thing they will accept from us is our tax money.

OI!

That video is taken in Sauchiehall street and is of a creature not fit to be defined as human.

I feel shame, and rage.

Also, I didn't like that original video, it was a bit crap imho.

I'm sure there are better versions.

Honestly, that's one thing I find interesting about Europeans as opposed to Americans. Americans (in general) go as big, loud, and showy as possible, whereas Europeans generally don't. It also manifests itself in Americans generally being more outgoing and, gregarious, I guess (or just loud) whereas Europeans are generally more reserved. I'm not saying that this is universally true, but from my experience it is generally accurate.

Englanders are supposed to be reserved, unless you bring up WW2 or the Germans or their version of football.

Englanders?
That takes me back to war stories in comics.
it's what "Jerry" would call us.

As far as National Anthems go Germany is lucky enough to have had theirs written by Joseph Hayden so needs must be jolly D

Only the british could come up with "Jerry", that doesn't make any sense. How can you hate anyone named Jerry, I know that I sure can't especially when it comes to Tom and Jerry. "Kraut" was a better term because it was actually created from something German. By the way saurkraut is disgusting; liverwurst is fine, bratwurst is fine, Bavarian chocolates are fine, but I draw the line at saurkraut. Hell I would eat blood sausage before I would eat saurkraut, and they make plates full of the stuff. Weisswurst and saurkraut as if it was spaghetti, just thinking of the stuff makes me shudder. It doesn't help that my mom is from Wisconsin and freaking loves the stuff thanks to German/Austrian heritage, its always in the house, watching me while I sleep... So yeah, Jerry is a bad name for a supposed enemy.
