    I'd just like to say well done to both sets of fans for that tribute to the fallen.
    Hearing the Last Post and the immaculate minutes silence right after was superb.
    Well done and thank you.

    Delighted that the dreaded clapping didn't happen.

    well done who organised the armed services and the last post - very moving - not sure it would have worked in London were most of them are not British - wonder how long it will be before its deemed offensive and we have to ban it in case it causes offence

    Impeccably observed by all. Long may that continue when we pause to remember.

    I think the last post helps people realise what they're meant to be doing. If its just a refs whistle, they forget themselves.

    Good show today.

    Good show from both sets of supporters but the noise from the concourse (staff??) was very noticeable. Surely it isn't that hard to stand still for a minute

    The guy who controls the concourse staff should have warned them all, it was like they were unaware of what was happening.

    Thankfully very well observed by all sets of fans. But I also noticed the concourse staff noise from the North Stand and it was distracting. Or do we turn it around and say the minute's silence was so well observed that it made the concourse audible? Whatever, I think they should have stood in silence too, or at least have been made aware of it.

    Something we should never forget. <rose>
