1 minutes silence/applause for Alan Henning

Right, get ready for the most confusing family going with regards to football teams;

Alan was a tiny bit of a blue. My Dad took him to Oakwell in 1981 for his one and only match in the League Cup. Barnsley 1 Typical City 0.

My Dad is a blue and season ticket holder in the South Stand with our kid and their sister is a blue whose 1st ever match was 4-0 v Newcastle when Bell made his comeback.

Alan's son is a red. I was trying my best to convert him only last night at the memorial in Whalley Range.

Alan's older brother is a Blackburn Rovers fan.

Their Dad (my Grandad) was a West Ham fan who moved to Eccles when he came out of the army.

I agree with what some are saying about football being an escape. I do believe something will happen at a forthcoming match though.

I know what you mean grandparents blues, my mum and dad rags, me obviously a blue, my lad a bleeding county fan

I also agree that we seem to have too many minutes silence/applauds nowadays but Alan was from Manchester and i believe something should be done

Can I suggest that if this goes ahead,can all those miserable fuckers who don`t want it to happen,just stay on the concourse or go for a shite.
I don't think anyone who doesnt think it should take place has suggested they are tempted or feel the need to disrupt any minutes silence that may or may not happen.

Who is the miserable fucker again?

Not me ! I aint the one complaining that "we have too many of these nowadays" so stop trying to pass the buck.If you don`t want to be involved then just keep the fuck away for that one minute.Simple solution.

Most people are capable of sitting through a minutes silence whether they agree with it or not. No need to send them out onto the concourse like naughty schoolchildren just because they don't agree with your narrow point of view.
 
Deserves all the respect in the world, shame the world is not full of compassionate people like Alan, giving his time and ultimately his life to help others.
