Minutes applause for Ray Wilkins before Rags game.

[levets]

I'd like to think we would observe it impeccably, even if he was more strongly associated with United.

We did for George Best... but Scousers ruined it. Remember?

 

[Bill]

matters not who he played for, we show him and his family respect.

 

[cadds92]

The guy had impeccable manners, we should show the same.

And so there should be

+1

It absolutely will be. Ray Wilkins was a credit to the game we love on and off the pitch and I’m sure he will be remembered in that way tomorrow.

A gentleman of the game , i asked him for his autograph (for my mum) at the airport as a 12 year old and he said I was a very well mannered young man. I said I was a City supporter and he smiled and said well that explains the good manners then. Classy.

For his commentary on football italia if nothing else! RIP butch

He was excellent back then wasn’t he? Knowledgeable and impartial. Lovely voice. Perfect for Sunday afternoons

Seemed a nice bloke really, respectful to other clubs, genuinely in love with the game. I can't see why any fans would be against giving him his dues.

That's nice - I can almost hear him saying that
