Hope this is picked up and supported by the crowd; if there is any sort of announcement it will be.

Best not to keep quoting it and dragging it up again then... plenty of people have already made the observation that this was a particularly twattish thing to say.
I will be clapping... it is the least we can do.

Yup, immaculately observed. And well done to the club for putting it on the big screens. Class.

This is NOT a precious post, just a genuine question.
What was the response from the Preston fans?
Did anyone speak to any after the game?
Will there be any Preston fans on here commenting on it?
Many other fans of other clubs have done in the past.
The reason i say that is because i have met quite a few Preston fans down the years both at football and on holiday, and i am going to be polite, they were not the most pleasant people i have met.
I hope they prove me hopelessly wrong, we did not have to do this but as usual it seems we did the right thing and our fans stepped up to the occasion.

And the bit in bold is all that matters really.

Very true, i am not being precious, honest guv.
But i think many Brighton fans would respond in thanks, like many fans have done in the past to us.
My only thought is are they actually nicer than my preconceived view on them.
Oh, also watching the Palace game, Zaha has just taken the most ridiculous dive,.
Yes, well done everybody. Hughton was also clapping.

How on EARTH were they supposed to respond? Clap the Albion fans for a further minute? I guess if you're really that bothered, go check out the PNE messageboard (assuming they have such a thing). It was one minute, immaculately observed by both sets of supporters and our club. Doesn't really need any more validation than that shirley?
Are you sure? I find that pretty hard to believe. Have you been DRINKING?
Having lived up North for a long time, I just chuckle at the "have they got the internet there yet?" etc posts.
However, the Preston forum thread about this lovely gesture only had six posts on it the other day. So I wouldn't hold your breath if you're expecting their fans to post on here.
Doesn't really matter anyway does it.

Yes. Been at Plymouth v Portsmouth, in the players lounge afterwards, full of Tribute.
But it really was not how i meant it, it was purely to suss out if they were grateful for what the club and fans did for this poor lad, i was keen to say that i was not being precious but can understand if that is how its coming across.
If the roles were reversed i would be very appreciative and would make a point of thanking them, i think many of us would. i just wanted to see if my thoughts about Preston fans were right or not.

As, indeed, was Glenn Murray.
Maybe that's why we only drew. [MENTION=29276]KT17[/MENTION]. I'm looking at you.

There were quite a few tweets from PNE fans of appreciation, and calling us class.
The minutes applause was very well respected and very much appreciated. It did make a difference, no matter how small it may appear. It was also a very nice touch to have the staff serving refreshments in the away end wearing North End tops - I trust we charged full price for them!
