Someone has just told me outside the ground last night a Stoke fan died, fell and banged his head by The John Smith stand? I was inside the ground about 10 to 7 and didn't hear anyone mention it? If it's true, puts it into perspective doesn't it. Here's me worrying about whether we'll get into the play offs..... Jon

if as suggested on the other board someone did die i hope the club makes a announcement or holds a minutes silence or something to me the fans are as important as past great players.

i hope this is not true, if it is hopefully it isn't, there should be a minute's silence to show a sign of respect, i hope this aint true

Just checked the other board, seems like it's true.......... Totally agree about the minutes silence. Anyone got anymore info on this? Jon

Perhaps it could be arranged that someone could e-mail the club/Phil Rawlins and see if the minutes silence can be arranged, in a similar fashion to with Stephen Allbut.
RIP

I'd be willing to do that 1KC. I did the same for Stephen Allbutt and the response was quite amazing. It took me a long while to copy and paste the names of everyone who wanted a minutes silence off here. Shows, Stoke fans are really the best there is in my eyes! Still need some more info though. Jon

If we set up a thread on both boards for a sort of petition, becuase on the other board, it does look very much as if he did die. I say both boards because there are those who only post on rivals and vice versa (i haven't been on it since this came up).

Minute's silence is a must but will the club do it?
We didn't have one for Carl, the boy who died up in Newcastle from a heart problem.
RIP to the both of them!

RIP to the both of them! i just like to say i'm carls dad and it means a great deal to see is name still mentioned it brings some comfort on the issue of a minutes silence i never asked although i would have liked it for carl. at the time stoke were doing a story on him in the programme and i suppose i left it to them (other things on my mind )thinking if they could do it they would have done but i don't know if they considered it. i don't know for sure but don't they have to apply to the football league for permission? maybe rex can help on that one? and i''d just like to take care to the family of the man that died tuesday night as you can understand i am going through a bad time so know how you feel. all the best scfc1 (john)

Saw a couple of Ambulances fly past the away end early on in the game with lights blazing - sort of makes sense now.
Tragic.
scfc1 - Hope you and yours are coping OK.

As I went into the main entrance at the JS about 7-30, there was an elderly fella lying semi conscious on the ground with a coat under his head. One of the doormen was seeing to him, didn't look too good unfortunately.

Defintely a minutes silence on Saturday is in order

I've just emailed Jonathan Fuller at the club.
Hopefully he'll let me know what is happening.

SCFC1 I asked you at the time if you'd like me to contact the club with regards to a minutes silence but understandably you had other things on your mind and never responded!

Do we actually have confirmation that this fella died, at the risk of sounding cold hearted, maybe we should be asking for confirmation from an OFFICIAL source before anything else, once we have that I will readilly add my name to the list.
