Fans having the audacity to go on free coaches and queuing for a beer are my favourite moans. I like moaning, I'm a brummie it's in my DNA but moan about our midfield.
Quote from: Nev on November 04, 2013, 02:26:34 PMI don't see why every club has to mark this occasion, only if they have a home game at the time. I do hope that these are not being introduced for fear of the club being criticised for a lack of aknowledgement following the recent accusations of "poppy fascism".Laying of wreaths by club dignitaries is rather over the top as well. Surely this type of ceremony should be confined to services and events at memorial sites?As ever with commemoration I believe less is more.Quite correct Nec. On every single point. 9 days before is a little excessive. Not surprised some fans didn't know it was happening.Rememberance Sunday and the actual 11th November itself is sufficient.

I find it very odd what people construe as moaning on here sometimes.I genuinely couldn't care less what other people did at half time, I merely just don't understand it, especially when some will miss 5 mins of a game they've forked out for just to queue. Everyone's own prerogative.
Weirdest minute's silence I ever witnessed was on a cross-channel ferry. The duty free shop was like a game of musical statues, fat lorry drivers standing motionless staring at kilo boxes of Golden Virginia. Middle aged ladies looking sadly and respectfully at big bars of Toblerone.It was a fitting tribute, I always think.
I always used to find if you got more pissed than the pissed up knobheads you tended not to notice them so much.

There were times when I couldn't enter a football ground unless I had had at least a gallon, especially in the mid - late 80s.
