Minute's Applause On Saturday

[hebangsthedrums]

Rovers fans were excellent during this, so thanks.

Yep, well done Brizzle.

Yup.

Shame they then had to get into such a tizzy about something. Maybe they all got upset when Badger-man was arrested?

Same here We always show respect to other sides and it was nice to see a quality response from the rovers fans so top notch

I still remember how Sunderland fans ruined Keith Weller's minute silence and I hate them to the bone today still for that <_<

It's a pity we're not playing Rotherham at home on Tuesday. It would have been nice to have had a minute's applause before that game as he went to Rotherham United after leaving Leicester.

is this definitely a picture of Sjoberg on the OS news homepage story ?

It looks a bit like Dennis Rofe to me ( but the pic is not very clear )

edit , i mean the small pic of the player in white , not the main pic in the actual story

I'm fairly sure it is John Sjoberg, in his last season at City.

Abit delayed isn't it?

i thought it was great how their fans applauded - seemed very genuine - well done to the Rovers

[SamL]

Well done to the Bristol Rovers fans for respecting the applause.

I'm sure I've mentioned it before, but the minute's silence I always remember at Filbert Street was the one for Princess Di against Spurs all those years ago. If ever there was one not to respect it was that, but when a solitary Pen One loony barked out 'Come on Leicester' in the middle of it, the people round me were incandescent with rage, and maintained the dignity of the occasion by shouting 'willy puller' at him, for the rest of the minute's silence. When the game started the same individuals then sang a lovely song about gas chambers - cheers lads.

Another Filbo 'classic' silence (cannot remember for whom) was broken by the bloke behind me's mobile phone ringtone, the suitably sombre Muppet Show theme tune. It could have happened to anyone, but it turned out that the bloke that rang him was actually sat two seats away. Everybody was bent double with silent laughter, including me, so I think that probably goes down as the most disrespectful responses to a silence ever

I remember a night game at Filbo and a mins silenec was in progress.

Obvioulsy a few late comers didnt realise what was going on so as they came into the concourse they started shouting something.

When they entered the Stadium,stillsinging,they were met with "Shut the fcuk up you fcuking twat"

To which he replied"i dindt know there was a fcuking minutes silence you cvnt"

The reply back was a few more explitives and i think most people in The kop were actually just pissing themselves!!

Happy days!!

P.S Must agree that the rovers fans showed alot of respect towards the Mins silence!

I remember the one for the Queen Mother, it was the relegation match against Man Utd. About three phones went off in the North Stand, playing such shitty ringtones as well
