Remembering Dale Saturday

[corby diamond]

I see on the official website there is a planned minutes applause in the 24th minute to remember dale 3 years on. Is there going to be someone to start this as it approaches the 24th minute, maybe one of the management would be a nice gesture? That's just a suggestion... 3 years on and never forgotten

It would also be great if the Dale-Never Forgotten Banner is there.

gone but never forgotten

Yeah it would be a very nice gesture if Starms started it, if not, could Mr Chairman do it, I can't remember how it started at Buckingham last year.

I could just imagine people having different times on their phones. Perhaps starms or indeed Ralph could stand in a visible place where everyone could see him from, Ie the dugout/technical area. It was just an idea.

The easy way is to set your time on your watch or phone to count 24 minutes after the ref has blown for kick-off.
There will be enough of us there to start the applause.

There were a group of us at Buckingham last year who were keeping note of the time, and were a few seconds away from starting when someone else got there ahead of us! Fear not, we will be counting again tomorrow.

It's not really appropriate to ask Starms to monitor the time while he's trying to manage the team!

Edit: I'm assured the flag will be in attendance.

Agree Dave, wouldn't want Starms missing giving a vital instruction because he was clock watching. Although it should be started at 3.24. Sure all would agree it's the actual act that is far more relivant & important than the precise timing, so if it's 15 seconds early or late just means those of us not there will be a little out of sync.

No guys you have picked it up wrong, I simply suggested starms start it, not clock watching or anything like that. God no he will be fully focussed on the game. Ok people I wasn't at buckingham but thats ok
