Posted April 7, 200718 yr Much as we hate the fockers I'd just like to say well done to the Spurs fans who gave our disabled football team a standing ovation for winning the disabled European cup.
April 8, 200718 yr I will never forgot how perfectly the Spurs fans respected the silence at SB in the first game after Matty Harding died. My hatred for them has never been as intense since. Most of the time anyway.

Most of the time anyway. You beat me to it, bjd. Their show of respect for Matthew Harding really surprised me, considering the hatred between the fans. Can't say I'm certain that Chelsea fans would have behaved the same way for a Spurts director. I think it's important that the Spurts fans receive credit where it's due, so well done to them. It's great that they can put their feelings aside at times, makes them appear almost human....... .....almost - I still f*ckin' hate 'em though
April 8, 200718 yr I always find it very embarassing when football fans can't find the decency to respect a minutes silence. Irrespective of any rivalry or past history it is surely not beyond a human being to put football rivalry aside when someone has lost their life and when their family is grieving the loss.
April 9, 200718 yr Not a great fan of minute's silences myself. When George Best died there was a minute's applause in many places. Why was that does anyone know?

April 9, 200718 yr Thanks a lot Englishman. I'd forgotten that. They indeed got reverence, but also crass loutishness from small-minded fans of Liverpool, who could not forgive the Northern Ireland star for representing Manchester United. ...best fans in the world.
April 9, 200718 yr Not forgetting last season........they respected OUR applause for Ossie,as did the West Brom fans at the Hawthorns the week before. PLAY UP POMPEY :lol:
