That’s basically what I was trying to say

 

Be very sad if in time the numbers dwindled to a 100 or so 

This irks me! 
 

at the time I had friends being slated for grieving in their own ways and getting stick for not being “emotional” enough, from many. One mate got shit loads of stick for selling his spare programme from the Burnley game, hoping someone who wasn’t there would get one. Whether agree or not, the abuse he hit was awful, and not a reflection of who he is as a person, he was truly in bits as many were over vichai.
 

as time has gone one, there have been posters wanting to recognise things vichai did, but when posting on the forum they were lucky if they got more than a handful of replies towards their ideas or suggestions. 
 

people are sadly fickle, at times emotional unstable, sometimes lauding in the drama. Those that still care will be there for the walk, or if not will honour vichai in their own way whatever that maybe, and credit to them.

Guys for goodness sake. You're all moaning about it not going to be as good as last year. Yet you sabotage an attempt to make it as good as we can. This needs our support. 

 

Let's share far and wide! And make this an amazing event!!

I think you need to wind it in a bit mate, to be honest. There are some absolute imbeciles in this thread turning to divisive politics, and yes they are shameful and of no help.

 

Yet there's no need to tar those who are airing legitimate concerns as "sabotaging" the event. This kind of hysteria isn't going to do anyone any good, and only put people off more. People are right to be concerned that this may dwindle over the years, but no-one has said that it shouldn't be done. I'm sure it'll be another well populated event. I was there for it last year. After the walk I decided it wasn't for me, and that I wouldn't get anything from doing it again, but many many others found it a great way to mark the occasion. and if they want to come back they will.

 

Keep promoting in the ways you did before. Focus on that, not attacking the people who have the temerity not to hold the same view on this as yourself or to raise some concerns about the longevity of the occasion.

unfortunately will be somewhere on the M5 on my back from half term holiday in Cornwall but my thoughts will be with those making the effort around 1:15pm. Was at the march last year although did not have a ticket for the match itself and found it very uplifting. Hope it goes well and the weather is a bit better this time around

I sincerely apologise if it came across like that. It wasn't intentional. Was just feeling really frustrated that some people needlessly crashed a genuine thread that is trying to make sure this event is as good as it can be. 

 

Apologies again if I offended anyone.

Sorry not for me this year. Last years was spontaneous and very emotional but I dont feel the need for me to do it this year. Will pay my respects at the stadium and sing loud n proud.

But best of luck to those doing it again 👍💙💙

Think we have had a people's vote 3 years ago pal.

That one didn't count because of the fraud and lies

Agreed, in this Social Media world if you’re not wailing, gnashing you’re teeth and covering yourself in ash at every emotional thing you’re clearly not ‘feeling’ it. 
 

we all have different ways of coping with and expressing our feelings over such trauma’s. It’s not a competitive thing and never should be. 
 

I will be sad and reflective on the day - everyone else is entitled to conduct themselves as they see fit without fear of ridicule or abuse.

Heard that a massive flag will be crowd-served just before kick-off.

Presumably this is the work of @Union FS and not the club itself?

The clubs, they mention it on the press release about giving out scarves and this surfer.

So I assume we aren’t taking the white scarves to the game as they will be providing blue ones for a tribute ??

 

of course those who make the walk will decide if they want to take the white scarves

Did the walk last year, very emotional day all round. 

 

Booked a holiday in Gran Canaria for the half term (in Bedfordshire) holidays. 

 

Gutted I won't be there but will try and find a bar to watch the game and raise a glass or 2 to our beloved Vichai 💙💙💙
