Why,oh why,why ,why,why? :mad: Is somebody from one of the local 'youth groups' the event organiser for the day?Maybe its Graham Norton's character from Fr Ted? :o

Dont think its a bad idea but most fans just sit in silence during this great anthem, the timing of it being played isn completely wrong, i've often seen referee's kick off a game with YNWA still blaring and Declan King has to abruptly bring it to an end.

why does he?? thats the point, he should turn the music off and leave the rest to the fans, more often than not the opening few moments of a Celtic game are played with the backdrop of YNWA being sung (un-aided!!)

If the music was turned off the openings to Ireland games would be the sweet sound of silence.

agree with you there, I suppose I was just making the point that if the music stops, doesn't mean the fans should, alas that the nature of the support at Lansdowne these days.........
