A twist to the minutes silence
 

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

Re: A twist to the minutes silence
 

I think the applause is a much better idea.

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

Why would someone want to GC it is a valid post for a hero. Anyone else hit mines ok and taking karma aint my style and if I did i would say it was me.

Re: A twist to the minutes silence
 

its the not knowing who it is that gets me... AT LEAST HAVE THE GUTS TO PUT YOUR OWN NAME....

Re: A twist to the minutes silence
 

a great idea, i like it. But the silence does make me really really concentrate and remember what it is I am s'pose to be remembering, am not sure clapping would focus me enough but its not as depressing as the silence tho. I must admit I find it odd why people bow their heads to pray.......?

I was living in London when it was Diana's funeral, and the silence as the coffin came through Hyde Park was deafening, except for one or two Latino types who started wailing.

It was a much nicer, celebratory atmosphere, when the coffin was driven back up Park Lane and everyone applauded and threw flowers, although I don't think the groundsmen would be very happy if that caught on at the football, they have enough to contend with paper streamers.;)
