A twist to the minutes silence

KIPAX · 09-09-2005, 23:08

I hate the minutes silence... I stand for it and spend the whole minute cringing waiting for some moron to break the silence... Its a pain.

Tommorow Glasgow will remember Jock Stien with a minutes Applause..... Much much better IMHO..........Everyone is forced to do a minutes silence wether you want to ot not.. a minutes applause can be done by whoever..

i think minutes silence should be changed to a minutes applause at football matches

I think the applause is a much better idea.

A celebration, rather than you say an excrutiating ten, I mean one minutes silence.

Sounds like an excellent idea. Celebrate the man's memory.

Hail to whoever thought of that! A much better idea than the minutes silence without a doubt....

What an excellent idea. Would be wonderful for a sportsman or actor - they'd love it.

what about rememberance sunday and those sort of occasions though,,some people might think you were taking the p***.
i mean like the realy old soldiers...
STILL it sounds a good idea to me ..

That's different. The silence on Remembrance Sunday is a different type of thing to the celebrating the life of one person at a place like a football ground. I can see a definite distinction and a place for both types.

what a refreshing idea
