ghostofcecere Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Just been having a mooch on a Rochdale forum and a suggestion has been made about a minutes appluase at the 4th minute of play to celebrate the Latics and Dale legend. Are we all up for this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sjk2008 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I mentioned this in the team for Rochdale thread but didn't see any replies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc_lover Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Think it goes without saying that everyone will do this. If someone with the club email address can sort out them putting it on the OS and Facebook feed so it reaches everyone, I'm sure Rochdale will follow suit.

Alec1954 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 What about Bert Lister? He played for both as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oafc_lover Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 What about Bert Lister? He played for both as well. Fair comment but I think it's the whole story and sadness that his career was cut short through his illness. Bert had a full career if not as long a life as many. I'm not for a minute saying his death means any less than Ernie's but let's just leave it and give Ernie the respect he deserves on Saturday.

LaticsPete Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 At the start of a game, in the 4th minute, the atmosphere could well be very "energised" and there's a possibility that lots of fans will be wrapped up in other chants etc Obviously a nice gesture but , and I don't want to offend anyone, perhaps it's time to move on? The two teams have played each other on several occasions since Ernie's sad death. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Simpo Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 Could have been done against Crawley as well. The occasional Ernie for England chant would be a nice idea, as Spotland was the first time that chant happened, when he was still a trialist.

OAFCM35 Posted November 26, 2014 Share Posted November 26, 2014 I'd be all for this but like it's said above 4mins in our fans will probably be engrossed with other songs, maybe a roar of "Ernie for England" would be more practical? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
