Since when have English people given that respect during other countries anthems anyway? From what I've seen our supporters normally boo all the way through it. But then, how disrespectful is that anyway when half the European teams we play make monkey noises everytime one of our black players touches the ball? This is a disgusting state of affairs and its far more important to sort this out before picking on people for not standing up during another countries national anthem!

The problem there ^ would not be a nation divided or racial problem. The problem you talk about I feel is because of football, and the class of fan that we let get away with actions like that. We can call rugby all we want, but when was the last time an anthem was boo-ed at a rugby game. Same goes for the Olympics, Ice-hockey and the likes... there is no respect in football, that's a whole different kettle of fish. :(

My God, is this still going?

I stand through whatever anthems are being performed, what's the big deal?

I only know and only sing my own, but I pay my respects to our neighbors, I have no beef with Canada. Just agree with each other already....Even if you disagree:p

Oh, trust me, the football chants as well that get sung are discusting. 2 world wars and one world cup is still regularly sung at the Germans. I am ashamed of this but it still isn't nearly as bad as some of the stuff other countries do!:(

Then remove the Debate Section so none of us may banter. Because for everyone to agree: ain't gonna happen.

yeah no shit.. it's like if two people disagree here (even in a debate forum) flashing lights and sirens go off, and in comes Team Kumbaya to save the day!

Nope. Just seems to be your style of personal attacks and offensive comments that set of the sirens. But you still keep doing it. Then you get mad and make comments like these. Then people like me have to say things like this. Then you get even madder and start the insults again. Then we give you another infraction. It's a vicious cycle.

Read the Sticky at the top of this section. Nobody gets in trouble for disagreeing. It's the name-calling and flaming.

When you can link things together logically, then come talk to me.

Watch this link:

To which you replied with:

Clearly insulting my intelligence. Which I predicted with my bolded comment. Damn, I'm good.

Never ending saga. :D

Anyways carrying on. Unless you're handicapped and can't stand I think you should stand for the anthem.
