Dunty Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Is there anyone being brought in to sing it, or are they going for the bagpipe again? Would be good for such a big game if we could get Flower of Scotland spot on for a change rather than the drunken mess it's been recently. Noticed in Paris on Saturday night for the rugby they have microphones next to the players to pick up them singing. Don't know if that went around the stadium or was just for TV's benefit.

fringo Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Not sure about anthems but got this email today from STC : European QualifierScotland v GermanyMonday 7 September | Kick-off 7.45pmHampden Park, Glasgow We are expecting a full house here at Hampden for tomorrow night's qualifier against Germany. Make sure you arrive in good time and take your seat at least 15 minutes before kick-off to ensure you avoid delays at the turnstiles. There is plenty going on pre-match too. Come early and enjoy live performances from Dougie MacLean, The Red Hot Chilli Pipers and much more before roaring Scotland on against the World Champions.

Orraloon Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Doogie McLean will be there, but not sure if he is doing Flower of Scotland. Hope he does Caledonia beforehand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bobby Russell's Lovechild Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 (edited) Amy MacDonald was asked to do it, but turned it down due to the abuse she got on twitter after she made a mistake the last time, even though she apologised beforehand Edited September 6, 2015 by Bobby Russell's Lovechild Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fringo Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Ah right. Nothing the pissed up TA don't do! And her timing (and voice) is a 100 times better. Oh and and she's nicer looking. Can't believe she got abuse for that. Some real saddos out there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fringo Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 The fact that she's a Rangers supporter probably didn't help. I didn't even know that as it's not important to me, but maybe it helps narrow down the saddos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

usainboltyarocket Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 Time for a new anthem. FOS is poor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ak91 Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 The first verse should be played with bagpipes and all as it is but the second verse they should stop and let just the players and crowd sing. I hate the second verse being played in bagpipes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunty Posted September 6, 2015 Author Share Posted September 6, 2015 Time for a new anthem. FOS is poor. Nonsense, it's a great anthem when sung right. Anyway, here's how a RHCP version tends to go. Will be interesting to see/hear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Langtonian Posted September 6, 2015 Share Posted September 6, 2015 you could play the first or second verse on the kazoo it would make no difference Sadly only the egg chasing supporters can sing our anthem on key and on time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She's the best we've had in a long time and, what's more, she really seemed to enjoy it. Some folk shouldn't be allowed to use the internet, numpties.
