Frankie 505 Posted January 4, 2008 Share Posted January 4, 2008 Personally I will stand silent as I prefer that method of respect. However, I've no problems with the applause for PoD as I believe that's what his dependents requested so in this case. Obviously, an applause isn't suitable for other circumstances and as such I'd prefer the club promoted the traditional route of silent observance.

Coopermania 1 Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 I cant be there, but I would hope that we pay belated respects to all the fallen Bears with one minutes silence. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimenez 1 Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 i hope the club has got something arranged or its a disgrace. They do what they always do and lay a wraith (Sp) Show an image on the jumbo screens and that's your whack You still see people at Ibrox walk past the memorial, kiss their finger and touch the name of a loved one What the powers that be decide is nowhere near enough Minutes silence every year, black armbands too.....not too much to ask is it?

Muff 245 Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Dont think they'll be anything for the 66. We had pictures of them up on the screen at H/T on Boxing Day plus they laid a wreath on the 2nd. That in Rangers eye's is probably enough? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLUEDIGNITY 29,379 Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 Definitely Dignified silence, applause has been created for people that can't respect silences. Never been a problem at Ibrox that so I won't be changing my ways to suit scum ! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

wronglypenalised 14 Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 If I was attending the game I would be standing with hand on my heart observing the minute, not applausing (I can see where the applause is appropriate with some people but I don't see where the connection is with this weekends memories - FFS a man died on the pitch why celebrate that? also why are the deaths of 66 of our fallen brethren a reason to applaud?) It's obviously something that splits not only some supports, but the authorities as well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boab 73 Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 just wondering what the members that are going to the game will do, i think there will be lots of fans bow their heads and stand silent. I will ask my Dad as to what he thinks when he arrives at the match, even at 20 I respect his opinion when/if he's soaber And I'll make my decision from there.

Davy 68 Posted January 5, 2008 Share Posted January 5, 2008 I think it should be a silence, but if his family have requested an applause and they feel that it is appropriate then I will go along with that. However, a minutes silence is by far the most respectful of the two, in my opinion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
