What a sad state of affairs. Well done for Sunderland apolagising not many cloubs would even bother doing that. Can't remember Wigan doing the same when Stan passed away?

Yep fair play Sunderland although ironic apologising to Cardiff IMHO after the chanting after Stan M's death although one doesn't justify the other.In fairness to Wigan it was 1 idiot who interrupted and considering how empty the stadium was it seemed to echo around the ground.
Wolves ruined the Tony Waddington minute silence and then yapped like babies when the same happened with Billy Wright.
Don't remember them apologising.

I think the fact they have apologised has made up for themselves!
All they have to do is prove next time that they can do it.
Wigan weren't going to apologise! That's the reason the trouble satrted, not delilah, you fucking knob head running greater manc police!
Would Stoke ever apologise if a fan interupted the silence? No because stokies have more respect. Unless it's Rob Styles in which case we just booooooooo for the whole minute!

No 1 Stokie. Who said anything about the trouble starting due to the minute silence etc? Have I missed a comment?
Wigan was 1 idiot.
I'm sure if a section of our supporters did what Sunderland did then I'm sure fans and club would apologise.

Yeah possibly did, the atmosphere at the Wolves game a few years back turned nasty as a result of them ruining a minute silence.
It was reported in the press and on R5 that the trouble was as a result of that which of course it wasn't...but like you say did wind up a few folk.

well Thorney says that the Blunderland fans ruining the minutes silence spurred them on to win "I was very, very annoyed that the minute's silence for John Charles was being ruined," explained Thorne to the Western Mail. "I looked over at their fans and thought to myself, 'We're gunna really turn you lot over'. skysports.planetfootball.com/article.asp?id=187605&cpid=10 |

just talking to a sunderland fan and he said it was the hooligans causing the trouble/ruining the minutes silence.
Why am I not surprised??

And so they should. Of course, when its thgere own player like Bob Stokoe, its a minute scrupulously observed. They should get life bans like the scummer Wigwam fans who chaned through Sir Stans minute

The 1 silence that springs to mind is the one at the end of last season i think  .It was for the army lads who were killed in Iraq and as one of their families walked on to the pitch and then everybody in the ground applauded for about 2 minutes and the minutes silence was brillianty observed by everybody. It seny shivers up my spine. it was truly brilliant how respectul everybody was. Not like those feckin idiots from sunderland or wigan who ahve never heard of respect at all!! Thanks people Chunk |

Yer i remember that silence, surely one that those ABSOLUTE KNOB HEADS at sunderland would have observed, people sticking up for the country, or is that when they'd have started chanting no surrender?

A few Stoke knobs chanting during the minute silence for Matt Busby. I don't recall the club apologising. It was just a few as it probably was for the Sunderland ones who disrespected Johgn Charles.
