.. we put in 100% for 90+ minutes and get all three points.
At the start I'll be honoured to pay my respects to the 5 that died, but then it's gloves off !

That's 2 but I echo your sentiments
Yea agreed, easy to get caught up in it all but for 90 minutes we need the 3 points like any week.
My one hope is that the entire crowd will be respectful in the minute's silence before the game. If history is a guide to the future this might not happen as there is nearly always a few idiots who have to make a noise. After that they can make as much noise as they like.
Its people in the concourse that can be a issue. Or those coming in from the concourse.Quote:

Me and my mates were chatting as we walked into a pub on a Saturday evening, completely unaware of a minutes silence at the beginning of a rugger match, this was a good two or three weeks before Armistice Day. We weren’t even given a seconds opportunity to realise what was going on before some gobby fat cow in an egg shirt yells “show some bloody respect” at the top of her voice across the pub.
Classy :facepalm:
I have. No doubt that Cardiff fans will be totally respectful, it’s going to be a difficult game for the Leicester players
I think there's one of those in every pub! Thick as mince, but believing they're speaking for the majority.Quote:

I often wonder when all this "minute silence before the game" started (Yes I know, usually 60 seconds before KO). I don't remember ever doing it in the 70's or 80's.
We seem to do it at the drop of a hat these days. I know the incident at Leicester is tragic, but life is full of tragedy every day.
Maybe I've become de-sensitised.
It'll be an applause.Quote:

Touch wood this is too fresh for anyone to embarrass the club though
The reason why I think it would be an applause is because of what he helped Leicester achieve.
All I hope is that they don't have the EGG on the screens in the concourse !!!!!!!!
(which they have done in the past, sometimes)
