    The pre match minutes silence

    Such a shame to witness a few visiting fans disrespecting the above by insisting on shouting out. Surely those seated around them should have intervened and ensured there were identifed to the stewards to be ejected.
    Sadly it speaks volumes about the perpetrators.

    I felt the same Prando but I thought it came from some of our fans. I'm glad to be proved wrong though. I do sit in the East Stand near the Brummie Road end and obviously not in the best position to hear it.

    I'm also in the East Stand, but nearer the Smethwick end. Definitely from the Citeh fans...thus the booing from our fans after the silence, directed at the visitors.

    The same City fans then booed McClean, who stood up with the other subs during the minute's silence.

    Such people are morons.

    That said.........I don't need the minutes silence to remember the bravery of my grand fathers,my mum's dad lied about his age so that he could fight in WW1 aged 15 or 16 and my dad's dad was on the beach at Dunkirk.

    I asked him how he escaped as he couldn't swim and he replied..."You'd find a way to swim to a boat with those b a s t a r d s shooting at you!

    My dad's mum nursed orphans....she left home in Durham aged 14 to live 80 miles away in Harrogate at the orphanage and 80 miles was a bloody long way in 1925 especially to be a kid yourself with no family support.

    Scum and lowlife who are such cretins that they do not understand are wasting oxygen the rest of us could use.

    My Dad was told to walk round the block and think of another date of birth,he joined up at 14. Dad lost a leg at Arnhem.
    Moms brother was also lucky to get of The Dunkirk beach.
    Granddad lost 2 brothers in WW1.
    We was brought up to respect the poppy,from an early age.
