TBF yes there are some idiots but sometimes it's accidental - people not aware when entering a ground, leavings bars and toilets etc etc. It's not make too much of this I'm fairly sure everyone at BV will do their best - maybe there will be a few who don't but we can't let them get in the way or tar everyone with the same brush. Thanks.

As will hopefully others at all the super league grounds.

If it's accidental then your not aware of your actions and, in my opinion, it's not disrespectful because you don't know what's going on. i'm talking about the idiots who do it for a laugh, it's just not acceptable.

those were the days wrote:

A minutes silence is a lot better than a minutes appaulase that is used in sports where the fans cant keep shut for a minuite if you get someone stupid enough to shout or make noises with thier phones they should be barred for life FULL STOP.

IMO a minutes applause is better because it drowns out he sound of idiots and it applaudes and appreciates their achievements in life.

Let the idiots make a fool of themselves and show themselves for the twits that they are - and I hope they all get treated in the same way as those Ski mentioned earlier.

I prefer the silence, a time for reflection and as I said later that can easily be followed by spontaneous applause anyway.

I don't condon 'physical' behaviour, but if I do find myself near an idiot who is disrespecting Leon, I will not think twice about throwing them out after the minutes silence is over.....makes my blood boil just thinking of it.

Same here.... Sure everyone will do the same!!

I have never known any thing other than the minutes silence being anything other than honoured impeccably at an RL match I am sure it will be on Friday as well

Unfortunately that is not always the case.

Not an easy decision to make, but I for one applaud the decision to carry on against the Saints this Friday. Yesterday ws different, because that was at short notice, whereas by the time Saints come to Belle Vue, we'll have had time to reflect on the tragedy and will be wanting to win it for Leon, hopefully with his family present, invited as guests of honour by the club.

Win it for Leon, lads.

dont think its an easy one this, and may depend on many things ie the day and time of the funeral.

prior to knowing this the on/off issue doesnt really come in to it in my opinion.
