Much prefer silence to applause. Far more respectful.

I actually prefer the applause because it only takes a couple of idiots to ruin a minute's silence.

I prefer the silence myself. But it is (rightly) up to the relatives to decide. So if that’s what they want that’s fine by me and I join in wholeheartedly.

My preference is silence but you're right.... there's always someone who can't reign it in and makes it about them, rather than reflecting on someone who has passed away

to be fair to football in general i think the mutual respect thing has come along way...go back to the 80's i can remember that away supporters wouldnt be quiet at all when it came to someone associated with the oppositon team being honoured. The only times in recent years that i can recall silence being broken would be when the turnstiles kept turning and latecomers would enter the ground chatting or shouting but then realise and shut up.

It was appaling at the town scunny game 2013 when we had a minutes silence.

but that was the clubs fault wasnt it ? they fluffed the announcement as it was a 2 minute silence but the referee blew his whistle after 1 minute ?? or something similar IIRC

At the Yeovil game during the minute's silence, there were a couple of town fans stamping their feet to the tune of Clap, Clap, Fish and the cronies around them were laughing.
