Erm well to be more accurate, it would not have been an unreasonable request, had his family actually requested it.

But as it appears they have specifically requested a minute's applause, and the club has refused, the whole thing takes on an entirely different colour.

You're being asked to shut up for sixty seconds. Unless your a baby or have some kind of disorder, that is not beyond a reasonable request.

The Hand said: ↑

And couple it with the fact that they have chosen this same day to parade a British soldier on the pitch at half time, and there's definitely something smelling a bit off here. Why did they not choose to salute this man in their home game during Remembrance Week?

The analogy with Boruc is fundamentally inaccurate, because what he does before a Rangers game is exactly the same as he does before every match. What we're looking at here is a little program of events put together specifically for the Old Firm clash, in order to give the knuckleheads in the Celtic support the maximum opportunity to disgrace themselves.

Rangers' utterly transparent attempts at sectarian point-scoring not only disgrace themselves, but dishonour those people whom they are ostensibly recognising.

So they want you to make an * of yourself? And not making an * of yourself is STILL an unreasonable request?

Either out of respect or out of not wanting to let the Huns win, any reasonable person should have the ability to calculate that it's better to shut up. But naw, lets break the silence and show Celtic up, that'll put the Hun in their place

Neef was their sub in Barcelona in '72. If they disrupted a silence for John Fallon, we'd go utterly beserk, and rightfully so.

Incidentally, 40 games in 5 years is clearly enough for some of you to have such a problem with the man that you can't respect the man in death.

A bunch of attention seeking babies who desperatley need something positive in their lives, that's all it is.

I am gonna respect his death coz he is after all a human being but m8 bit provocative doing on an OF game never said i had a problem with respecting the mans death read what i said, just think its a bit naff having on an OF game when they ken some fans will react to it the wrong way m8

In my opinion ANY fan of ANY club who cannot respect this needs to look at themselves closely . We are all human at the end of the day and we should be big enough to respect it

Don't think it was a big issue tbh.

If the meeja go for this, they'll just prove what biased fannies they are - anything for a negative slant on us.

A non-story.

The silence disrupted?

daily record reporting that the atmopshere was 'poisonous' today with Celtic fans disrupting a moments silence.

How many of our lot decided to be *? I'll be really disappointed if it was many. Kinda cedes the moral high ground
