The Last Post before the game today.

[manclad]

Very moving the playing of The Last Post before the game today.
Always brings a lump to my throat,and a tear to my eye.
It is always good to see the players (on both sides)with red poppies on their shirts.
Did the stadium announcer say something about the bugler and the clergyman both being City fans as they walked onto the pitch today?
Or did I not hear what he said correctly.

Yea he did say they were both City fans,club chaplain and the bugler,very moving and brilliantly observed as per usual by all the supporters in the stadium.

Bar someone in a level 3 South Stand who shouted something out very loudly. Not sure why he did that or what he said.

The last time I heard the last post was at the Menin Gate in Ypres a couple of years ago. That was so emotional, as was this today. Beautifully observed by the club and the fans.

Must have been something personal to him. No problem with that for me.

To be honest with you,I thought that myself at the time,maybe it was,which led me to think it was for the rest of the silence,no problem for me neither in that respect
