craigkillie Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 That would be overkill.You were concerned earlier about the potential for St Mirren fans not getting their chance to pay respect. Does that not imply that you think there should be a silence at every ground in the country? That would take most clubs to 2, if not 3, and that's before you include the ones that each of the clubs in Europe (maybe not Celtic) will have in midweek. Hearts have already sort of had one too.

D Angelo Barksdale Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 The eyes of the world will be on Scottish football next weekend, let's not let ourselves down. Hope the United lads have something planned for next Saturday. St Mirren v Celtic will be essential viewing. I'm also hoping for Helen Lovejoy statements from clubs in the run up imploring fans not to disrespect the silence. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally can't think of any, and I wouldn't go out of my way interupt anybodys* silence but thats just common courtesy. My 2 *Thatcher doesn't count The respect is what I would show to most people who have died. Whether it be the Queen or some fan that has died where we are asked to respect by giving a minute’s applause with most folk having no knowledge of what sort of person they were. As you say, common courtesy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are a governing party in Scotland by invitation not representation. Regardless, governing Scotland has absolutely no bearing on the monarchy and I'm not sure that getting less than 3% of the vote in a general election could be in anyway considered mainstream.

DA Baracus Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 1 hour ago, kingjoey said: So given that the St Mirren fans may only get one opportunity to pay their respect by observing a minute’s silence in public, that should be denied to them because of a bunch of Scottish would-be Irish Nationalists? Games were called off today as a mark of 'respect'. Is that not enough? 26 minutes ago, kingjoey said: The respect is what I would show to most people who have died.

Except we know quite a bit about the queen and it points to a rather unsavoury figure who is not even remotely deserving of any 'respect'. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GAD Posted September 10, 2022 Share Posted September 10, 2022 The media line is that we are all mourning the loss of the queen and the entire country is United with grief. Let's be honest, if the football had been on that illusion would have been massively shattered, and not just at Parkhead, Pittodrie and Anfeild. It's not a mark of respect to cancel the games, it's a move to suppress disrespect. Fucking cowardly one at that. The games should have happened. If the thought was that it would be too much for the sensibilities of certain people to hear folk booing a minutes silence, then don't have the minutes silence. 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
