stanningtonowl Posted November 8, 2019 Share Posted November 8, 2019 Can all the ones downstairs on the concourse tomorrow, please be aware tomorrow will be a minutes silence before kick off. Lets not be making noise like last week at Blackburn and no shouts to be quiet please. Thank you. 3 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agentwalker Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 They ALWAYS screw it up in the past. Think last time they made the announcement about a mins silence on the whistle etc. Then no whistle, went quite, bugle played, ref whistle went (for the silence) but everyone thought we'd already had it with the bugle so there was the usual cheer and shouting and the ref and players just looked like idiots.

During the minutes silence I don’t want to here a smash and ”borrocks I’ve dropped mi last jar of chutney!!!” 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lanzaroteowl Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Was locked outside during the minutes silence. You could've heard a pin drop from inside and outside the ground Well respected Wednesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emerson Thome Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Well respected indeed, and sorry to moan... But seriously, why the fizz do the club have Ozzie and Barney Owl joining the players huddle at kick-off to commemorate the dead? I mean nothing shows respect for the fallen in the Somme than having some loon pretending to be a 7ft owl looking down respectfully at his oversized comedy feet? Or perhaps a poignant tribute to all those carrier pigeons killed in the line of duty? Surely it would be better for the mascots to quietly sit down in the tunnel for a short while. At least we're not the only ones doing it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rev Owl Posted November 9, 2019 Share Posted November 9, 2019 Meticulously observed. Good job everyone. The thing about the mascot is that although it looks stupid from the outside, there's a human being inside showing their respects. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But do they really need to show their respects in the middle of the pitch in full costume? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
