The bit in the programme is a nice touch but I'm sure most know what I think of the minutes applause. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
North_Stand_Ram Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Ok... Sad news and all but this is starting to take the Micky slightly. The one for Cloughie at Forest away is a very good idea, mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cam the Ram Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Eh.. Clough at Forest !,, wtf is that all about. 10 years since his death so there's a planned applause during the game I think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Walsall_Ram Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I'm not too sure about the one for Brian.. Seen a legit Derby fan take the piss out of it by comparing it by saying we should do one for George Burley because he managed Derby and Ipswich.

Angry Ram Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 10 years since his death so there's a planned applause during the game I think Oh I thought it was something about Nigel being sacked... Stupid I know but so are most of these minutes applause. Doh. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearl Ram Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Well I'd join in with this one if I was attending even though I didn't know Neil Dalton a) because I was saddened when I originally heard of these two lad's murders and b) because I have read Neil was actually a Derby County fan. Don't get me wrong, I think some of these requests are becoming a bit much and when an occasion does arise that genuinely deserves a minute's applause, a former Rams legend's death for example, I wonder if the more personal requests cheapen (if that's the correct expression) the deserved ones somewhat. But for me, when a Rams fan's life is taken in such a needless way, clapping for a minute doesn't seem too much to ask. If someone next to me didn't clap, I wouldn't want to know why just as I wouldn't explain myself to them why I felt I wanted to join in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

maydrakin Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 It is a tragic event, but there is a good chance that numerous Derby fans will die over the next few months. Aren't they just as deserving? It's just getting a bit over the top now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pearl Ram Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 I think there's a difference between dying be it due to ill health or whatever and being murdered in the prime of your life while you are abroad trying to make a difference to people's lives. Let's hope not too many of the Derby fans that will die over the next few months you mention aren't murdered eh ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are we becoming a bunch of heartless bast#rds here or is it just me?? What harm will it do to show your respects for a fellow Ram and more importantly a fellow human being who had his life stolen away from him?? Please think on.

The problem is that there is a different clap for someone every other game. Which in turn dilutes the meaning of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ladyram Posted August 31, 2014 Share Posted August 31, 2014 Only of you let it dilute the meaning. If it's done sincerely, then it gives it meaning. If you're not sincere and don't see the point, then don't do it. But I wonder what the reaction on here would be if it were one of our members who had been murdered? Would we arrange a minutes applause? Or would it have no meaning to us? I'd like to think the former. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
