I know there were a few comments on here about the minutes silence held on Boxing Day and the associated mucking about with mobile phones etc.



Got to say last night's was perhaps one of the best in recent years.



Whilst I understand it is impossible for the odd phone to not to go off, there was no clown at the back endlessly playing their ringtone this time.



A fitting tribute

you weren't stood round me then a teenage idiot behind me was chomping on his sweet then he started laughing worst of all he plays for churwell chiefs!

I was stood in Southstand and thought it was a very moving minute

There's always one. From my standing point, it was well respected. As it should be. There's always one brain-dead, but let's not deflect from honouring Leon.

Sarahrhino, were you in the south stand by the 30 metre line as some idiot thought it funy to start laughing. I am surprised that the woman to my left (not the mrs) didnt smack him as she was mad as hell.

i was in the northstand i thought it was observed empeccably just one or too people coughing

very moving tribute

Just spoke to a mate who was at Wakefield last night and he said it was unbelievable, the mins silence started ages before the ref blew his whistle, great respect shown as expected but still

Yes that where I always stand. The offender was stood right behind me I felt like turning round and giving him what for then I saw that woman doing it.

But then you would become the offender (or the thick gobe as I like to call them). I've seen it so many times and things like this, where one person will shout out, so then a group of people will feel the moral need to shout 'SHUT UP', and they then are just as bad.



Any road, it was there to honour Liam as a tribute, and from where I was stood that was done perfectly. That's what really counts.

As soon as the players lined up it went silent. Was 99% well observed around me ("South stand 2" at the back) and its the best i've heard at HQ.



Very fitting tribute

It was a very surreal experience. They showed to tribute from his family about 10 minutes before the game kicked off and the whole ground pretty much stayed silent from that point until after the silence.
