First "Respect" Fixture

Recommended Posts

Posted
Respect aims to deal with poor behaviour in football and establish a positive environment in which players, staff, officials, fans and young footballers alike can enjoy the nation's favourite game.

Expect to see red cards, dangerous tackles and Pearson and Hughton tearing at each other then :)

:giggle:

The event will involve grassroots participation at the Walkers Stadium before kick-off and at half-time, both teams warming up in Respect t-shirts, large scale giveaways by The FA to raise awareness and a Respect card display by fans in the Marks Electrical family stand prior to kick off.

Who gives a shit?

The 1st blatant penalty claim we have that gets turned down (there's bound to be at least one) all of us will be screaming insults at the ref.

The respect campaign can fvck off. Keep the passion in the game.

What a load of tosh. Respect fixture? The FA's new initiative to attempt to gain abit more respect in the game. It's not going to happen. We saw what happened at the Man City vs Man Utd game in midweek, when Bellamy got pelted by a coin, and beer bottles. It's a waste of time.

I give it 30 seconds after the KO when my respect for the referee/linesman gets thrown out the window.

From OS

Today's clash with Newcastle United (5.20pm) will see a number of pre-match events staged at the Walkers Stadium in front of a huge crowd. This is The FA's first ever Respect match nationwide, and the Marks Electrical Family Stand will be the centre of attention at the game.

The FA will be giving away thousands of Respect freebies: foam hands, Respect badges, DVDs, hats and other items to help increase the profile of the Respect campaign.

In addition, spectators in the Marks Electrical Family Stand will be part of a card display in support of Respect and in front of a national TV audience. Supporters in this stand are asked to be in their seats as early as possible, approximately 15 minutes before kick-off.

The Leicestershire & Rutland County FA will also be present to promote Respect, The FA's national programme to tackle unacceptable behaviour in football.

Both teams will warm up in Respect t-shirts and walk onto the pitch accompanied by Respect flags. At half-time, a number of local football teams will take centre stage, participating in the grassroots parade.

If the FA say that the Respect fixture was a complete succes... I will laugh my head down to Soho and give 'em what for :laugh:

I'll correct myself, It lasted roughly 15 minutes I think.

Isn't it time to show some respect?

The respect game was a success? I don't think I've heard the ref get that much abuse in a while...

But anyway, I doubt much will change just cause the FA decides to start a campaign.

Only question I've got about this is 'how did the 'respect the ref? you're havin' a laff' chant come across on the live TV? I thought it was possibly the loudest I've ever heard the Walkers, and I'm sure there were one or two people in the West Stand joining in too. That normally only happens when Mark Selby shows off some silverware.
