  • Silence for me too   If folk can't be quiet or wait outside til it's over I don't want to stand beside them

  • I admire your optimism, I just don't share it. I'd be absolutely delighted to be proved wrong.

  • we have too many idiots imo. and i wouldnt like to give them the chance to taint the rest of us.

2 minutes surely enough? Start clapping 63rd minute?

Edited by Mounts Kipper

I would have thought the club would organise a fitting tribute pre-match

2 minutes on 88 minutes (he joined the club in 1988).

 

Added bonus of making everyone stay til the end.

Minute's silence would be most appropriate.

 

Don't think we could trust some of our fans to do it though.

 

Very sad.

They should also keep trevor birch out of PGs seat

Just put a shirt on his seat with a minutes applause, we are not fucking scousers.

 

If a few ex players wanna turn up too excellent.

Good idea.

Interesting that both Gudni and Muamba were there Saturday.

Its be nice if Rivaldo turned up too.

By the grace of God.

 

I prefer a minutes silence myself, but ultimately I'll quietly raise a plastic glass at half time with our bunch.

Agreed

 

 

In an ideal world the club would be able to give a drinks token on arrival, everyone raise a glass, and get a few more in

 

Hopefully grief will galvanise spirits

A pre match minute's silence would be my choice too.....a short time to reflect on our loss & show a bit of respect, rather than clapping like seals at some gimmicky time because some simpletons can't be trusted to keep quiet.

Minutes silence for me or 2 minutes I'm not into this applause on some random minute it's the same as every fucking overpaid premier league twat pointing to the sky when they score showing their "human" side or worse still rambling some bollox at the sky whilst holding there hands to heaven whilst walking on the pitch vein gob shites ........ Oooh needed that off me chest

Tribute on the big screen showing our rise from promotion season to Europe and the players he brought to our club, followed by a minutes silence.

 

Raising a glass at half time is a great shout too.

Agree with the general consensus here. A minutes silence, and some photo's on the big phone in the corner. I also like the idea of a shirt in his seat to be honest. Been choked up a few times reading some comments here today. He was Bolton through-and-through, and that's all that should matter to us as fans at the moment. He was one of us.

Random flash back; either Tranmere or WBA at home in turn of millennium semi... A patron of ESL had recently passed, a packed stand, yet black ribbon around a seat impeccably respected.

 

Sorry, not entirely relevant, but reminded me of a moment of dignified respect.

 

Horses for courses; we all say goodbye in our different ways. This isn't a piss up for one of the boys, not a 'celebration', this is paying respect, and saying a dignified thanks... Genuinely hope I have articulated this.

 

I think each to a man would agree with the sentiments shown. Would like to think away fans do too... Is it Burnley btw?

QPR 20th Feb

QPR 20th Feb

No reason for it not to be impeccably observed then

Silence - a minute's reflection

 

Applause - a minute's thanks

 

Really doesn't matter at the end of the day. It's not worth arguing about.

 

Whatever is decided just go with it for fuck's sake. A White has passed away. And a significant one at that

Not arguing pal. Don't think anyone is.

 

Were in this together

I prefer applause miself

 

I didn't know him, he was "just" a chairman, but I'd like to thank him

 

I mean the "just" with the greatest respect

 

But when it's silence I just end up thinking about something else

I'm in the silence camp, before kick off. The shirt on his chair is a great idea also as a focal point.

 

Anybody who cant have a bit of dignity and keep their mouths shut really need to take a look at themselves.

 

Nice to see Allardyce pay tribute this evening as well.

Silence would be the best tribute, alas there are too many mongos who'd spoil it.

 

Applause, albeit not as fitting a tribute IMO, would at least drown out said mongos.
