It may be a little late in the day to make this possible just one day before as i'm not sure it will get out to anough people.

But maybe get it spread across this site and if anyone's on Twatter or MyFace or owt like that get it spread across there.

Because, it is a great idea.

Well I saw on Sky Sports News that Warrington are wearing black armbands at the game in memory of Albert Naughton.

Sorry Oxford Exile but I don't agree with this. I find this current trend of mawkish, maudlin behaviour distasteful.

As sad as Mike Gregory's illness and death was, it happened nearly six years ago, you can't go on commemorating it. If it was an anniversary, fair enough but as Albert Naughton's death shows, club legends die, it's a fact of life.

It's not our first final since he died, it's not Wigans first final since he died, it's not the first time we've played each other since he died. The first final between the clubs is a very tenuous link for something like this.

This..... It seems to me that we find any excuse nowadays to have a minutes silence/applause, its almost like its become a trend to find something to clap about - It even got to a point at Chelsea that they clapped for a bloke who had got sacked!!

Likewise Bob

In the past few years, we've had minutes silences/applauses for stewards, club workers and fans (including that fella who died a couple of weeks ago).

Now, it's very sad, but do we need to have them at the start of matches for all and sundry.

Lets just keep it for ex players/managers who've served 50 matches +, and not make it too maudlin.

Don't get me started on minutes applauses. There was one on Sky for a Hull game a couple of years ago, and I thought I'd tuned onto an ITV game show. Extreme bad taste
