I respect and admire our noble Queen Elizabeth. but what I would like is instead of singing the National Anthem " God Save The Queen." I would like other songs/hymns to be used such as " Land of Hope and Glory"
What do other members of the forum think?.

Yup,
Football is 90 minutes pretending you're hurt...
Rugby is 80 minutes pretending you're not

Football is a gentleman's game played by hooligans...
Rugby is a hooligans game played by gentleman
