This little one was in the Sun regarding a compilation of classic tunes that our Sven has put together for release on CD. Frankly, I think it's ridiculous that they've banned this tune. It's a classic, and who cares if the Krauts are offended? I'm offended everytime I hear the German national anthem, and that happens every time one of those bastard Schumacher brothers wins a Grand Prix!
FA bosses have banned Sven Goran Eriksson from including the Dam Busters on his CD — because they reckon it’s too anti-German. Football bosses fear featuring the tune would encourage England fans to taunt German supporters at the World Cup. Sven has substituted another tune by composer Eric Coates, called By The Sleepy Lagoon.
