Default Worst Anthem singing EVER!

Swanee singing our anthem = BAD @ V8 krappercars

Stuffed words up and kept looking on the ground reading the words off a sheet.

Couldn't they get someone to sing our anthem and not have to read off a frikkin Queue Card???

I've said the same thing in the Motorsport Forum.

I could have done a better job passed out from heat stroke. Thats the last time they use him.

:
Do they still make kids sing the national anthem at primary school every day? I remember when i went through in SA we only did it assemblies, were as in WA they made us sing the national anthem every single day.

No pride in your country, don’t know the words to our anthem? Get out, we don’t want you.

I knew I would get a bite with that comment out of some one.

ANYWAY

Neil Crompton should shut the F(*@&#*( K Up

He loves pointing out any errors the Fords do and loves making a point of it so the officials will hear about it if they hadnt picked it up.

He did it with Ambrose at Bathurst (Balaclava not being worn)
Now he has done it with Lowndes (Entry to pits)

What is he getting paid by Holden

Off Topic;- When Jamie Whincup returned to the pits after winning and went to his car, stood up on the roll cage and acknowledged the crowd, why did the V8 supercar official standing nearby snatch the "Falcon Great" poster from his hands and screw it up. Did anyone else notice this?

Yes, I noticed it and was wondering the same thing!
It was to Wincup's credit he didn't retaliate.

Yes we all noticed it, that guy was so rude....he could have tapped him on the shoulder and said I take that...
Lucky it wasn't a aggressive driver he may have copped a whack on the nose.
more here on that.

As for that guy trying to sing our national anthem, he may have had a few to many lagers. :

To start with, I just thought it was because I was so ИИИИed. after the first verse, nearly everyone in our stand sat down in disgust. Luckily the F-18 soared over and drowned his Barnsy try-hard scream out. It was a disgrace.

Anthem Singer == ИИИИ. Bullet for him and that crackwhore girl posted in another thread?
Official == WTF? Why? Needs explanation
Skaife + Murphy == I feel sorry for the blokes. Hitting a wall at 150-200km/hr would not be a ncie feeling. Murphy looked ИИИИed after it... But lol @ skaife taking himself out twice

Over all a great start to the season. Can't wait till Fosters

Ah, that's why Australia will never know true patriotism like the yanks have...

Every seppo knows the anthem... but get an Aussie to sing ours and every 2nd person will start singing Waltzing Matilda or a f u c k i n g rolf harris song...

Shouldn’t this thread be in the Bar?
If you can’t get your message across without using language like this, go somewhere else.

Lol - go shove it, stig. If you wanted to show true patriotism you should enjoy the anthem no matter who is butchering it. Be glad whenever you hear it - no matter what moron is choking it out.

Couldnt hear it at the track anyways as the F18 was en route to buzz the pit straight but still took my hat off and shut the hell up. I imagine you spent the time ИИИИИing and moaning from atop your high horse.

I cant stand righteous people who think they're so much more patriotic than the rest of us.
