Lisa is my cousin, it's nice to see how popular Damian was, I didn't realise he had so many friends on here. I'm sure that I'll see many of you next Friday. Lisa's sister's husband is a barsteward so Damian and I enjoyed us all meeting up in recent times!!

Re: Minutes applause on sunday
This is a great gesture and let's keep it going in the future.
There has been some debate on here about the number of tributes such as these at the Turf but I can't think of a better way to remember proper fans and decent lads and lasses.

Im actually one who has been critical of it in the past. But while it is a popular thing then there is no harm in it.evensteadiereddie wrote:This is a great gesture and let's keep it going in the future.

Personally I like the idea of the memorial garden and an annual minutes rememberance at games for fans who have passed that year. But if it helps families and friends and lets them pay respects at a place they enjoyed so much then let it be.
Anyway without drifting off topic, if anyone deserved a minutes recognition at a game it was damian. Hes spent more time and money through thick and thin watching us. As memorable face you will see at the turf.

Fully agree with all of that, and more often than not, if you didn't see him on a match day for whatever reason, you usually heard him!cricketfieldclarets wrote:Im actually one who has been critical of it in the past. But while it is a popular thing then there is no harm in it.

Re: Minutes applause on sunday
I never understand the need for this.
All those of you who want to show your respect make an effort and go to the funeral.
No doubt there will be 1,000's of sheep clapping along who never knew him - utter nonsense,

If you don't want to clap, don't, but there will be many who didn,t know him personally to go to the funeral, who may want to show/pay their respect.
But even if you didn't know him, he was a massive claret, why wouldn't you clap along?

Re: Minutes applause on sunday
We worked very hard to get something like this done every year when we hold a minute's silence to remember all those Clarets who have passed away in the previous year. It has worked, and worked well.paulatky wrote:I never understand the need for this.

Since our last home game I am aware of three season ticket holders who have passed away. Whilst not wishing to refer to clapping sheep and it being utter nonsense, which I do find disrespectful, my view is that using the January minute's silence is the most appropriate way to do it at the ground.
We've had this discussion on here several times and the general view is certainly one of a growing concern about it.

Hopefully it doesn't drift off topic, especially when his young son (and daughters) will probably read this thread. Save the debate for another thread on another day.

Re: Minutes applause on sunday
Well good to see Claret Tony takes the complain button seriously. Outlining that while Damian would laugh it off, his young kids (who are looking foreard to the tributes) would be upset from reading paul atkys comment. Oh well.
Just stick to deleting pointless stuff - like this post!
Paul Atky. While I understand the sentiments, Manners and respect cost nothing.

Re: Minutes applause on sunday
I do take things seriously. I also note than when it's someone you don't know then it's fine to debate it, but when it's someone you do know then it's not. if someone starts a thread then people are entitled to comment, otherwise it is pointless having a board. Paulatky's comments weren't personal, they are generic and no different to what's been said on other threads previously, although I accept his choice of words weren't the best and I've already commented on that.cricketfieldclarets wrote:Well good to see Claret Tony takes the complain button seriously.

but for your benefit, I'll close the thread so we don't have comments that you deem unsuitable.
