    The Last Post Today At Oakwell

    Played to perfection by the trumpeter and a deeply moving moment when remembering the lads and lasses who lost their lives in the two world wars .

    The minutes silence was impeccable observed too as you would expect , you would have heard a pin drop .

    We've all moved on of course but I did think of the irony in our technical area at the time and had a cheeky smile to myself none the less .

    You can only move on when things come to an end and a period of time afterwards heals the wounds .


    Sectarian violence still exists , the two communities don't integrate , the power sharing hasn't worked , Orange men still march through Catholic areas of NI .

    Ridiculous post red flagged in all honesty .

    Isn't James McClean on the record as saying he would gladly wear a poppy on his shirt if it was to commemorate the fallen in the two world wars only ? .

    Don't know has he ? This Remembrance isn't about him, or though he may think differently? I lost my brother aged 33 yrs old serving in the RAF, other family members too , he should keep out of all this and ask to be left out of the squad at this time , either that or fkoff back to his own country , see how much he gets paid there the 2 faced 2hat , Today was about 100 years since the war ended , all other conflicts wernt relevant then , I've said before about opinions and don't totally disagree with him or others , time and a place for things tho , Respect !!!

    He doesn't want to have anything to do with it though does he and yet every year he's singled out for standing by his principles .

    The British armed forces are his enemy , surely that's not too hard to grasp given the history between Ireland and the UK .

    I'm extremely sorry for your family losses in the armed forces but the reality is he looks at that as you would when an IRA volunteer loses his life .

    He's got a totally different mindset to our armed forces and to be fair it's totally justified .

    He was born in NI but he plays his international football for the Republic , what does that tell you ? .
