    For the club mainly if they read this
    Like last season after the Incident with Steve Croft. Hows about a shirt with Wroe on back for the Lads to hold up tomorrow of we score or at Full Time in front of our Fans.
    I remember the club did it last season with Steve when Kieffer Moore held it
    Sorry if its a bad suggestion just wondered thats all

    Nice gesture but where was the shirt the other night for the 20 year old who lost his cancer battle or the hundreds of other tarn fans that pass away each year? Or does an incident happening at Oakwell make it more significant because it shouldn't.

    Whatever the club do or however it acts in these moments will be at the discretion of the families involved and the Fowler’s made clear on social media the amount of support they’d received from the club.

    I agree with dreamboy here. Whilst everyone is saddened by the passing of a fellow red, there are many who pass silently into the night.

    Rest in peace to them all.

    I think what might be a nice gesture is on the last home game, the match day announcer reads out the names of our fellow supporters whose families are happy for it to happen and we give them a huge minutes applause or something along those lines.

    Must be since the advent of social media that clapping our lost fans at certain points of the game has become a thing. Unfortunately, many become a damp squid as people don't know what's going on. Also, seemed there was one every game at one point.

    The end of season display on the.screen that we introduced a few years ago seems best way to honour our fellow fans.

    I think in the case of this poor guy on Wednesday seems an exceptional case with it happening during a match so a minutes applause would seem appropriate- depends on the wishes of the family as well.
