    For the first time in many years, I won't be at Valley Parade for the minute silence.

    Posting on a forum doesn't change that. But at 7.45 tonight I will pause for a minute to think of those we lost.

    RIP and never forgetten.

    Same here , i did E-mail the club to complain with it being tonight but got short shrift , far as i'm concerned last Saturday was the last scheduled home game and should have been held then . I will have my own private thoughts prior to KO , god bless them all , the victims and the injured and all the families .

    I too couldn’t go tonight, sick. First time I have missed the last match of the season, and first home match I have missed this season. I was thinking of all the fans we lost in that dreadful fire, as I always do at this time of the year.

    Theres always one bell-end. Didn't help that he was so close to the commentary. Just amplified his idiocy.

    I'd like the club to quietly identify and ban them for life. No media, no infamy, no more football.

    Not only that but we should make sure his employers know so that there is a possibility he could lose his job, maybe call round to his house too, hassle his kids and stuff.............

    Personally, I thought he just misjudged the end of 60 seconds but who knows? I thought the sound of a really big exhaust earlier on was pretty funny.

    Nah, Radio Leeds commentators were nearby in the Sunwin, he was trying to be funny.

    Let's not try to salvage thus one.

    From where I was sat it sounded to come from down one of the entrances. So they may not have known the silence was on.

    Each to their own I suppose, it might be just me but I've never found anything funny during a minutes silence.

    We don't know that. Even so, it's just not that much of a big deal to me, we'll be hounding those who don't want to stand and clap like seals on 56 mins next.

    True. We all remember the events of that day in our own way. Personally, a quiet moment for my own thoughts on the anniversary.

    There is no need to be derogatory to those that wanted to stand and clap. FYI I clap with slightly cupped hands which a seal can't.
