"Poopy Day".
Ha!

It is SO ironic, that it has to be a typo? Surely?

my apologies for the speling mistake ,  did people boo ??????



 

From what I can gather, 3 things happened:

David Gold's name was mentioned as he was bringing out a wreath = some short booing.

People from the concourse below were quite rowdy entering the crowd unaware of what was happening (possibly down to the crap tannoy which was almost unintelligible),

Some Villa fans then told them to basically 'shut the fuck up'.


Seems like a bit of a misunderstanding really, with some people being a little over sensitive.

Case closed.

So that's your reason for bringing this up. Yet another thin excuse to slag Brigada.

As posted elsewhere:

My opinion.  They announced David Gold and some of our fans booed at his name, briefly.  Then they announced Paul Faulker and that they were both coming on to the pitch with wreaths.  The whole ground clapped and the next announcement, during the clapping,  regarding the minutes silence, was barely audible and was probably not heard at all by those still in the concourse who continued to sing as they made their way into the stand for kick off.

I have never known our fans be deliberately disrespectful during a minutes silence.

But firing flares is accepted now then  . regarding the video .

i was there, the noise was coming from under the stand and from outside the ground the only noise on the terrace was of telling them to shut up (but with more colourful language).  to be honest they weren't aware but how hard is it to notice you're entering a full ground just before kick off and is completely silent, it's obvious what is happening.

I would never disrespect a silence, but I've been at matches before where every single person in the stands has been stood there, utterly silent, and people have come up from the concourse chatting noisily, or chanting, totally unaware that there was a minute's silence on.

It can happen, and by the sounds of it, that's what happened yesterday.

Still, where there's a high horse, some people will do their utmost to clamber on to it.

I done exactly this at Liverpool. Pissed up singing in the concourse, walked onto the terrace oblivious there was a minutes silence (should have known) and got told to shut up (with a lot more expletives). I wasn't being disrespectful, just wasn't paying attention... it happens.

I didnt get in the ground till after kick off and had no idea that a minute silence was/had taken place. I do know that 2 or 3 of the turnstiles broke down whilst trying to get in the ground so there was quite a lot of noise from pissed off Villa fans trying get in who had no idea there was a silence going on.

On a side note trying to get a drink at Half Time was a joke aswell. Police had to close the bar before the half time whistle had even gone with the amount of pushing and crushing going on.

This can be easily done. A couple of seasons ago when we played at home after selling I went into the ground and said hello to one of the stewards. I was met with a stony silence and a finger pressed to his lips. I felt awful but was genuinely unaware.

Did you not see them throwing streamers at 1.21? Think of the children!

I was there too, the place is a disgrace, the tannoy was barely audible, the "concourse in the away end was carnage before during and after the game, the tubes were fucked so a long wait and more crushing to get on them.......thanks god for Fulham away.
