| Quote: The Glorious League Freak "When I die (And I think one day I might, I dont know...) I always wanted my ashed to be used instead of sand and the kickoff to the first game on an Origin series seeing my remains become part of Australian sporting history.
Of course now they use rubber kicking tees.
So my hopes have changed.
Now I want Gareth Hock to snort me off the chest of some dirty wh*re.
Thats respect......'"
Classy

| I do my best you know. A lot of commoners around here, sick individuals.
I think I bring a sense of class, a sense of style....and hey, I like lesbians, that counts for something in this day and age.
All in all, I'd give myself a 10 out of 10.

| I know that for the Good Friday match at Knowsley Road last year there was a minutes silence for the late great Eric Ashton MBE (a man who'd done so much for both clubs) which was preceded by a round of aplause.
Personally I think that a minutes applause is cringeworthy and disrespectful and only thought of as a good idea by people who agree with the media's stance that soccer is the be all and end all in sport.

| I like the one minutes applause, especially for something like a club legend who has passed, its like they are getting one last standing ovation.

| It all depends on if you want to mourn the passing of someone, or celebrate their life.
I tend to favour the latter and indeed want a game of rugby played on the graveyard at my funeral. If the families of loved ones buried there don't like it........well they should have thought about that before burying their loved ones on my rugby pitch

| Quote: bramleyrhino "Different circumstances merit different tributes for me.
To use the Bobby Robson example, I think applause is a fitting tribute to somebody who offered so much to the game he was involved in and to those around him. It was a life worth celebrating.
On the other hand, I would have imagined that a minutes silence was held at Valley Parade earlier this week when Bradford played Lincoln City - the opposition that they faced on the day of the Valley Parade fire. Of course, in those circumstances, there is nothing to applaud.'"
What he said.

| I think they should have a minutes silence before and after ever Test match England plays.

| I think that the 1 min silence has more impact - to see a whole crowd of people completely silent, reflecting on the individual/event, I would say is much more a mark of respect than the same crowd clapping - which they all do at games anyway.

Agreed. Also love to roar after the referee's whistle which someone reffered to earlier.

Have expereienced both at RL games, and both have their merits.

| Quote: Code13 "Well said wheels
RL fans have class and decorum and so can keep quiet for a whole 60s as a mark of respect.'"
By giving applause you are saluting all that person has done...we applaude a good try, goal, tackle etc....so why not their lifetime in the sport etc.
Can see both sides, applause or silence...the person is still getting the respect. Most people would rather people celebrated their life and accomplishments rather than wollow in them.

| The main issue is context.
If a tragic loss, e.g. young star life lost 'prematurely' then silence i feel more suitably captures the emotion
However if more a celebration of a long and fruitful life, with death less of a shock (e.g. Sir Bobby) Id go for applause every time
