Giving Kompany a Standing Ovation
Loads of Albion fans round me stood up and clapped him off when he was substituted.
Why?

Their fans did the same for Bruno. Both players were playing their last games for their clubs after many years of service. Where's the problem?

Same reason as so many applauded Gerrard when, after a lengthy layoff, he made a comeback as a sub for Liverpool at the Amex.
There are plenty of Albion season ticket holders who are Premier League/football fans rather than Brighton fans....imoShow me a good loser and I will show you a loser - Toto Wolff12-05-2019, 17:41 #4Members

I clapped him, superb player who may be hanging up his boots. I am a football fan and see no issue with clapping and appreciating players from other teams if it is well deserved. Citeh fans clapped Bruno too.

Exactly. I didn't stand (can't remember if I clapped or not), but no problem that others did.

I was pretty enraged by that. I didn't see City fans giving Bruno an ovation but I'd have preferred had we recognised that we had been outclassed by kompany's team and he was the enemy. All I was feeling was bitter disappointment that we'd capitulated or rather been shown up so badly on the last day of the season.

This. He's been a very good player for Citeh and an appreciation for his skills and loyalty to his team. Originally Posted by Pogue Mahone

Probably because he's a quality player who has achieved a lot at the highest level.
