Anyone there sit near Nicola..did he look happy? He always says that he's too tense to enjoy the game till the final whistle. He said that Markus enjoyed the games because all he had to do was turn up! I bet NC was thinking of Markus yesterday. Did any of the Leihberr family attend? Sorry if I keep asking questions but I'm so sorry I couldn't attend and want to experience some of the atmosphere even if only vicariously.
I couldn't hear some of the tribute songs, there was too much noise (Don't ever accuse the chapel of being quiet again yesterday we were the noisest of the lot of you!!!!!) I saw him give a wave a couple of times so assumed it was in reply to some shouts.
I sit just in front of NC, and he looked very happy. When the fans were singing a tribute to Markus Nicola looked very moved
The Chapel were very impressive, but to be fair it is always noisy when we get a full house like against pompey. I saw the men is dinner suits were stoking up the crowd.
Found the answer to my own question..was the little lad in the Saints shirt next to Nicola his son. On You Tube there was a shot of same lad holding the trophy aloft on Nicola's shoulder.
I think they arrived in their usual mini-bus but at least they kept a low profile even when it all kicked off at the end.
