this weekend game again NOTTS Forrest http://www.doncasterfreepress.co.uk...s-set-to-pay-tribute-to-billy-sharp-1-5060366 I sure we will show our support and single out any idiots who might try and be a *****.
I suppose it might be too much to expect.... ....our fans to join in? Losing a child must be a terrible thing, especially after the hope there must have been before the birth. If they do it at Oakwell, I for one, will stand and applaud. And if I'm on my own, so be it.
Re: I suppose it might be too much to expect.... You won't be on your own, I think it's something we ALL should be doing.
Re: I suppose it might be too much to expect.... I don't see how it's relevant to us, or the world of football really. It's a personal matter for a player and his family. But I certainly hope our fans behave if a tribute does go ahead. It'll be embarrassing enough with all the scab chants...
Re: I suppose it might be too much to expect.... just for Info.. There is no NOTTS forrest. The two teams are Nottingham Forrest and Notts County. Only saying because i was pulled up saying it at a cricket match at trent bridge. :nails:
Re: I suppose it might be too much to expect.... I'll show my support for him with a minutes applause.
Re: I suppose it might be too much to expect.... Sad though it is, stuff like what happened to Billy Sharpe happens to hundreds of 'joe public' every day. Think it's a bit 'Princess Diana syndrome' to be showing public outpouring of recognition / sympathy because the person it happened to is a footballer or celebrity.
Re: I suppose it might be too much to expect.... There's no Nottingham Forrest either...... There's a Nottingham Forest.
Re: I suppose it might be too much to expect.... Pikey's views on it. http://www.drfc-vsc.co.uk/index.php?topic=235411.0 Personally its nothing to do with football and its a private matter that should be dealt with privately and through his charity. I don't also like these tributes that happen whilst the games playing, should be done before KO.
Re: I suppose it might be too much to expect.... I'm with you on that. It's a terrible tragedy for the family, and if it was just after the event I would join in. But a years anniversary....so this will take place every year now will it. And what about other players who have lost children, or siblings, or parents etc. My brother lost a child a few years ago to leukemia, I don't applaud him every year though! If this takes place I will respect it but not join in.
