    O/T Remembrance Sunday

    Just seen the minute's silence at West Brom on the EFL show, last home game before November 10th, was it not our last game as well?

    What happened?

    Seems too early to do it now though doesn’t it? I haven’t even seen a single poppy seller yet. Makes more sense to do it at the Accrington match on the 16th. In my opinion that is.

    The poppy sellers had a stall outside the ground today. On corner of North and West Stands.

    Ainsworth looked like he was wearing one on his suit.....is so credit to him for remembering. Like it's been said though too early really.

    Aren't you meant to do it before though, not after?

    Too early?

    When the shops are already full of Christmas stuff and the Halloween crap started more than a month ago?

    Not sure but over 2 and half weeks before to me doesn’t seem right. A few days after seems more plausible.

    Yes I happened to see them (got a poopy) only because I was chatting outside otherwise I wouldn’t have known they were there, why didn’t the club let us know?

    Well probably do ours 16th which is only a week later, I’ll still be wearing the poppy if I managed not to lose it again

    I have a metal poppy badge on my hat all year round.

    It can never be to early for remembrance.
