i think you think you know something, but your very, very wrong.

 

he told me your dad fingers you

 

I told him it was wrong too

You're both wrong: he uses his thumb.

both thumbs actually

What time does the Fanzone open for evening games?

If they were having one, would it not have been done on Monday?

Exactly but ill be doing my minute at half twelve on wednesday

I expect Messrs Davies and Terry will be laying wreaths on Monday night followed by a minutes silence for the great man, "Sir" Nat Lofthouse.

ideally john terry won't be anywhere near any tribute to nat

yeah terry can get to fuck

ideally john terry won't be anywhere near any tribute to nat

 

I'd be more pissed off if he didn't do it seeing he's the captain of the opposing team..

He's also not got the capabilities to respect anything or anybody so I doubt he'll have any understanding of the emotion of Monday night.

I too would sooner he was nothing to do with it too.

Meanwhile, more details about the tribute on Monday night have been announced:

 

Official Site

 

 

Bolton Wanderers would like to announce a provisional timetable for tributes to Nat Lofthouse prior to the 8.00pm kick-off in the live Sky television game against Chelsea on Monday evening.

A minute's silence will be observed, followed by a period of applause, as a mark of respect and celebration of the life of Wanderers' 'Lion of Vienna'.

Both the silence and the applause will be led by a signal from the matchday referee.

A video tribute will be screened inside the stadium ahead of kick-off and the time will be confirmed on Monday to enable supporters to take their seats ahead of the broadcast.

Books of condolence will also be available for fans to pay their respects in locations around the Reebok.

Details will be on the official club website ahead of the game on Monday and exact timings will also be published on the website on Monday.

Fans will also be able to lay floral tributes or mementos outside the community office and reception area at the West Stand.

 

Ther, I've tidied it up.

 

But they've chnged it anyway. Which is probably a good thing, as large sections of the crowd would get it the wrong way round if they were having both silence then applause.

At least there's no mention of Vuvuzelas.

That went well.

The link you've posted back to the official site has a different text.

There's no mention of the applause on the link:

Manager Owen Coyle said: "It's going to be an emotional evening for everyone. It is important we pay our respects, remember and celebrate everything that Nat did and gave for Bolton Wanderers.

 

"He was a modest person and the club and fans will mark his passing in a manner appropriate to the man he was, it was never about Nat and always about Bolton Wanderers and we will remember him for that and much, much more."

Yes, but the text there is different to the one I c&p'd from the official site.

Does this make Gonk ITK?

No the club have amended their original article and it's unclear if it'll be a minutes silence then the game or if there'll be a period of applause too.
