Eastendtales Posted September 12, 2022 Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 (edited) Start a minutes silence just before the emergency tone is to be tested. Edited September 12, 2022 by Eastendtales 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superally Posted September 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 I won't be singing GSTK, and I don't think a silence will be respected. I think if the club are obliged to mark the occasion it should be applause for those who wish to take part. Looking forward to the game, slightly worried that with the lay off last week we may have lost some momentum. However, it will be the same for Falkirk - should be a tight game but feel confident we will edge it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eastendtales Posted September 12, 2022 Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 The club should do neither. Just get the home crowd up for backing the boys in a battle on the park. This whole "seen to be doing something" society can **** off. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottyboy Posted September 12, 2022 Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 I wouldn't sing Gstq/k, nor would I boo the anthem., but would respect the silence, if that what the club decided to do. Probably better to do a minute applause. It's her party and you can clap if you want to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rosythpar Posted September 12, 2022 Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 I wonder if our game will be in doubt due to lack of police recourses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Queen's body will be down in London. Why should that impact on police numbers up here? Presumably, the police chief has known about this game for several months and will have allocated an agreed number of officers based on the estimated attendance? Perhaps some who might expect to be off this weekend have been advised they'll be required to work? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deutsch Par Posted September 12, 2022 Report Share Posted September 12, 2022 They should do what they do in Germany. Have a moment's silence. Difficult to disrupt that when it is so short. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
