Gribz 837 Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Similar to the discussion we had with us. This will be interesting to see what happens. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/m/man_city/7201817.stm Its Man Utd's call and if any City fan cant be an adult and conduct themselves propertly they should enter the stadium 1 min after kick off. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

craig 5,199 Posted January 22, 2008 Share Posted January 22, 2008 Has to be a minutes silence and if City can't abide by that, well thats there problem. Cammy F Agreed Cammy - City are trying to pre-empt the undoubted moronic behaviour of some of their fans. It is a shame that such events can't be marked appropriately and abided to by all in attendance 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 837 Posted January 23, 2008 Author Share Posted January 23, 2008 I cant believe they used the word "plead" to Man U in there letter. :admin: Man U stick with the silence http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/m/man_utd/7201817.stm 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wija 0 Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Silence should be the way. Applause merely masks the state of this country. If you cannot show respect for the dead you really should die of cancer, on Christmas morning. Ignorant Cnuts! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jon 0 Posted January 23, 2008 Share Posted January 23, 2008 Again, agreed. Its not much to ask for some one to keep there mouth shut for 1 minute, then the rivalries can continue. But, show respect. Please 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 837 Posted January 24, 2008 Author Share Posted January 24, 2008 Now I dont agree with that. Although I do think the other team and fans have to respect the decision made whether it be applause or silence. The way I see it is your showing your respect by doing something for that minute. When someone dies we say you should celebrate that persons life and in war hero's you'd want to applaude their efforts. When your football team scores a goal your celebrating the achievement byt cheering - you dont stand in silence for a minute. I think either silence or applause is appropriate, its just you can identify the morons easily in the silence. The other season when John Lyall died Aston Villa put on a minute silence for West Ham but the West Ham fans chanted him name for that minute and nobody thought it was disrepectful - even the family preferred it to the silence. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
