grumpyespana Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 This happens in Spain was at the Cartagena fc game the other week and they gave a minutes applause to a former player ( no 22 ) in the twenty second minute who had died with his photo up on the big screen.

Have a minutes applause before the start of the next home game but these minutes applauses etc posted on Facebook for my Great Aunt Jeanies neighbours dug who died at 19 year old and would bark when Hearts used to score just dilute the meaning of the ones that are perhaps more significant for the Club. You see it at pretty much every game these days. A ripple of applause breaks out at X minutes, folk look at each other and slowly join in at the same time a having the conversation along the lines of "whats this one for?".

He’s a former player, though and someone is suggesting a song that used to be sung when he played. I’ll just be glad if we’re in a singing mood in the 11th minute on Sunday. 😀 How significant do you want him to be? Totally with you on your point, btw.

Stephen Muddie Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 (edited) Do you know what? I started following Hearts properly in the 93-94 season, and I've heard his song sung (and joined in) many a time since then. I don't think it's at all "naff", although it's definitely a fairly uncommon phenomenon which should bear testament to how fondly he is remembered by so many who saw him.

Glamorgan Jambo Posted September 17, 2019 Share Posted September 17, 2019 Fantastic idea. Singing a well respected players song is not at all like a minutes applause.

I'm sure you won't mind if other occupants of the South Stand/Dunbar End choose to acknowledge the man for his exploits in the famous maroon shirt during a very difficult period in the history of the club. I'm attending the match and I full expect the Hearts fans to create an atmosphere down there, I'd be really disappointed if they dont Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
