none of which are officially in the know from the club or the family.

anyway, they are my respects, it's down to me how I show them.

Whilst I will disregard my own feelings and do what has been asked.

While I see your point, it does seem to be extremely unlikely that the club would opt for a minutes noise unless it was requested by the family. If in any doubt, the 'safe' option would have been a minutes silence.

I don't disagree Kosh, it was simply an observation, but that hasnt stopped a few getting all self righteous as they always seem to do when responsing to my username, as opposed to the content of my posts.

Anyway, so long as people pay their respects in a way they feel comfortable I don't see a problem.

As i said before, if a family requested you wear white to a funeral, you wouldnt wear black just because thats how YOU want to show it.
The fact you wore black would be disrespectful in its own right.

Ive been to a funeral were the request was to wear red n white


needless to say i never obliged to that
