"The club would like to urge supporters to observe the silence rather than break into the spontaneous applause which has been seen in recent years"

If the club felt the need to remind a few idiots not to clap then it may well have been better not to hold a minutes silence in the first place - after all, rememberence day is the 11th, and tomorrow is the 1st & so a tad early IMO

After tomorrow the next home game is not for 3 weeks (Millwall) and too late by then.
