applause or silence

[gordon123 18]

just watching the Arsenal v Liverpool gane and they were asked to observe a minutes silence for Sir Tom Finnie . What is it with sone fans? cant they understand that silence means just that !! Silence is the proper and the only way to show respect when soneone passes away. however once again we have a few braindead Liverpool fans applauding that club and the morons across the city seem to be on the main the 2 main culprits when it comes to applause instead of silence why is this? can someone enlighten me?

A minute's silence is appropriate when its the war dead or a tragedy. A minutes applause to celebrate a man who's lived a full life and has made a large impact on society in some way is also appropriate.

Not sure why you think you need to post this in the bears den? But silence is appropriate for remembrance and applause to celebrate someone's full life and contribution

Silence shows respect, applause drowns out morons.

The thread on the 'roll of honour complains/letters' was deemed not suitable for some reason despite being far more relevant!

Neither of them should be in BD, tbh

I tend towards silent handclapping in these politically correct days, cant go wrong.

Seriously though, much prefer a minute's silence. Provides exactly the right amount of gravitas and allows room for individual and private reflection.

I will never applaud someone dying.

[Straight-Edge-Loyal 5,882]

A minutes silence should be the.only way its done applause.is shite

[themoodybloo 77]

Silence is the respectful way.....

[hooooootchy 405]

Minutes applause for me . Celebrate the life of those who's passed . I personally wouldn't want a silence to commemorate me

[AlCapone 7,676]

I've got the clap

[piperpete 3,186]

I will never applaud someone dying.

As you say , why would you applaud death other than a wrong uns death.?

[Tontospal 1,116]

It's simple for me.

If you are commemorating the achievements of someone who is alive it is through applause.

If you are commemorating the achievements of someone who is dead it is silence.

No it Fucking isn't.

Some people and I mean people cannot shut the fuck up and that includes them.

[Ger77 742]

To recognise the contribution of someone that is dead it should always be a minutes silence.

This happy clapping pish started because of the disrespect shown by certain other clubs fans.

We should be condemning it instead of accepting it.

[RFC Eagle 4,887]

Surely its down to the wishes of the family? Its not for anybody but them to decide what is appropriate.

A minutes applause is so inappropriate its happened at Ibrox a number of times.
