The IFA confirmed that a new anthem will be introduced to create a more inclusive match day experience for everyone. We pushed for this change and our success shows the power of persistent fans. Keep showing up to voice your support for the team as we enter this new chapter.
Hundreds if not thousands of Northern Ireland football team supporters are calling for a new sporting anthem to be played before our matches to replace God Save The Queen.
Following the example by Scotland & Wales we see it as another step forward in creating a more inclusive environment for all of our players.
This petition calls for 18,000 signatures. The same amount as the maximum capacity of our proposed new stadium where work is to commence this year.
We are aiming for a new anthem to be in place for the new Windsor Park which is to be ready for late 2015.
This is a petition for Northern Ireland fans who know the importance of improvement at every level of our game and we the supporters must do our part.
I am currently organizing the feedback from supporters and drafting a formal proposal to present to the football association. Email your local representative today to insist that our match day experience reflects the inclusive future of our game.

This isn't just about creating a more inclusive environment (though I suppose that's an added benefit). I would just prefer a song that's actually about Northern Ireland!!
