`there's no comparison with Abide by Me as that isn't being sang in honour of a player who recently died. It's simply a cup final tradition and an uplifting moment rather than a somber reflection on a recent tragedy.`

 

I cant quite see ur point.  Are you saying that `bread of heaven` is the wrong hymn?  I guess its bit quirky to sing a hymn at start of a league game, but then, this event is somewhat out of the ordinary.  Whether its a good plan to pick that hymn `just cos hes welsh` is another matter.  I have no clue weather speed was religious.....am guessing he wasnt a catholic(!)  Yeah maybe we should have left it to the welsh to do a memorial like this for him.....

Yes, I have BBC 2 Wales, so can watch the tribute to Gary Speed that's on at 10 tonight. :)

 

Oh so have I by the looks of it.  Thanks Tooj, never would have thought of that.  It's channel 991 on Sky for anyone who wants to watch it.

No, he's saying Abide with me is an FA Cup Final tradition and singing a welsh hymn before a normal league game is tacky as owt and very very scouse.

Toying with the idea of putting a wreath down on behalf of N-O. Thoughts?

 

Do it :thup:

 

I'll throw in for that, great idea.

 

Don't be daft. I'll get something nice and put it with the rest of the tributes near the reception. :thup:
