[Bye, bye, bye Delilah: Wales rugby choirs banned
from singing Tom Jones hit
Song dropped from playlists over
‘problematic subject matter’
WRU facing recent allegations
of ‘toxic’ culture and misogyny]


[But with the WRU reeling from allegations
of a “toxic” culture and misogyny the
governing body has responded to claims
that it promotes violence against
women by banning it.
The song includes
the lyric: “She stood there laughing/
I felt the knife in my hand and she laughed no more.”]

Yes you Bugger,
you murdered her




[The Welsh Rugby Union has ordered
the 1968 Sir Tom Jones hit Delilah
to be removed from its Principality Stadium
choirs’ song list on the eve of the 2023 Six Nations.

The pop song about a jealous lover stabbing
his unfaithful paramour has been lustily
sung by Welsh fans and become something
of an alternative sporting anthem.]
