RIP and condolences to all those who were close to Paul.

Just wondering whether it'll be a minutes silence or a minutes applause before the games on Saturday? Hopefully it'll be impeccably observed either way.

Octopus. Wierd name eh? Now if it was Octoleg or Octolimb or something similar I could understand. But why 8 ugly faces??? Beats me. Now if the plural was Octopi then I guess 8 pies Radge would be all over it.

If they decide to do this before the derby, they should make it a minutes applause.

Of course, if any of his relatives turn up the noise would be bl**dy deafening!

If there's a silence it's just to set us up for a fall. SFA and that :grr:

No need to worry about Paul's demise. There's a sucker born every minute. :wink:
