No! Absolutely no need for it to be sung.

yes, why shouldn't wee be allowed?... they play god save the queen (or aren't they allowed that either?)

Totally pointless having anthems at a club cup final. Keep them for internationals where they are relevant.

By the way natman, it's "our" not "are".

I hope not there's no need, we play in the English league and most of our players ain't welsh, it's not an internationa

To be fair to them we are playing in an English pyramid system, hence why GSTQ is played.

They "allowed" us to play Hen Wlad Fy Nhadau for the FA cup final, despite the fact that most City fans didn't seem to care one way or the other, so i suspect they will play ours to this time.

Nothing stopping Cardiff fans singing it if they want to. The problem being out of our 30 thousand odd fans there only a small percentage know the words and we don't want some blonde bimbo on a microphone overpowering it and filling in the gaps.

A small percentage?? Are you sure? I would have thought that 99% of them will know the words.

I would suggest that many Welsh City fans don't know the Anthem. As proved by the pitiful singing of it at Welsh football games>

Yes we are playing in the English club and in the English pyramid system but it doesn't change the fact we are a welsh club. They invited us as a welsh club and should respect that decision and play both :ayatollah:

I'd always put that down to laziness.

I don't think national anthems should be sung in club finals, I think it should only be for international games.

Re: welsh national anthem

Yea! Too lazy to learn the words!

No I dont want it done. Totally irrelevant. Would be better if Liverpool had YNWA sung first then we show them up with Men Of Harlech :ayatollah:

Indeed. Quite a few on here know the words but its the other groups of fans dont. I've just turned 16 and know the words, been supporting City for 7 years, yet theres people who have been supporting almost all their lives who dont know the words.
Still think it should be played though

I'm 17 and know all the words, it should be our anthem but I'll never understand why a lot of our fans won't learn the words. I think it will be played anyway, I'm pretty sure it did the last 3 times we were there before kick off.

Christ I'm 27 and the words were taught in school :lol:

The old and young egg chasers know the words, tbh i don't know anyone who don't know the words :?

Re: welsh national anthem

Mon Feb 13, 2012 2:28 am

it should be played most definetly,we play in the english leagues and most of our players arent welsh but 31000 people in the stadium will be(or english settled and living in wales like myself)
they should play both or neither( and no i wont be singing god save the queen :evil: :evil: )
