A Principality Stadium spokesperson " spokesperson" lol, said: "The WRU condemns domestic violence of any kind and have sought advice from experts and are of the opinion that the song is problematic and upsetting to some supporters because of its subject matter. Therefor Delilah will not feature on the playlist for choirs for rugby internationals at Principality Stadium. We all know what effect this wokery will have on the fans don't we. The first match of the Six Nations is Wales V Ireland this Saturday, and I bet the fans will sing Delilah more enthusiastically than ever, and I'll be singing along with them. news.sky.com/story/welsh-rugby-union-bans-delilah-being-sung-at-principality-stadium-12800771 |

Chris Bryant is of course the honourable member for Underpants who posed in a grubby pair for his profile picture on a gay dating site.
I almost caused his death in 2010 when in his frantic urgency to escape my outstreched hand congratulating him on his election victory he whirled round and fell headfirst off the podium.
A shame i suppose i could not provide that small service for he is no Don Touhig (his predecessor in the seat, an honourable man whose political career was screwed over by Gordon Brown forcing him to steal a copy of a critical select committee report ahead of its formal procedural release date to him, which was by parliamentary procedure some time in advance of its placement in the lubrary for ordinary members to read)

Back to the point then
The Pro Cottage Burning, publicly funded shitheads at Nation Cymru are pushing once again to have the Prince of Wales motto and Ostrich Feathers crest removed from the WRU identity. They really fucking hate the monarchy of course, and waste to opportunity to attempt to badmouth them.
Meanwhile the BBC has today published the lyrics of the song.
While no true fan of the pointy ball game needs them (and when we sing it, it sounds like we’re singing Cwm Rhondda anyway) i admire the bbc’s decision to help stamp out wokery by ensuring everyone within a mile of the stadium has access to the words to join in with the crowd who bloody well WILL sing it.

I now understand the worry about the lyrics, which are about stabbing a woman, but I hadn’t previously connected them to abuse of women.
Can’t see the reason for banning the song at performances — however, it’s probably a bit off at matches with all the allegations of sexual abuse surrounding Welsh rugby…

I expect the ban will be as successful as when they tried to discourage England fans from singing Swing Low Sweet Chariot.

Not much singing at the moment; Delilah or otherwise. |

It could be worse
You could be an English National League 2 Westcliff supporter dealing with the fact Dorking just trampled your heroes into the mud by 108 points to 3

They may not have sung it in the interval for the match, but fans unable to get into the game who chose to watch it at venues round Newport certainly sang it on the way, my eldest tells me she could hear them singing it from two blocks away
Sadly as reported above singing cheering and most related activities were in short supply as the game approached its end.
