Sport is enriched by soul-stirring anthems

SIR – Nicholas Young (Letters, February 10) dislikes the singing of national songs at sporting fixtures. What a killjoy he is.
Surely the one place where unashamed nationalism is acceptable is the sports arena. Attending rugby union internationals as an England supporter, my soul is always stirred not only by the national anthem but also by the proud defiance of Flower of Scotland and Land of My Fathers or the unifying Ireland’s Call.
Then there is the blood and thunder of La Marseillaise at the Stade de France. And, as a lover of military music, I hope one day to attend a live performance of Il Canto degli Italiani in Rome.
