I don't think it is a lap of honour. Just a traditional end of season thank you to the fans. I think fans who have true feelings for the Club will stay behind for a couple of minutes to applaud the players for their efforts this season. Friday's effort was piss poor from the fans who pissed off.

This is a joke surely?
So your telling me that those that left at the final whistle don't have true feelings for the Club? Sorry mate, but that is absolute nonsense. I know blokes who have been going down there for 50 years supporting us in every division come rain or shine through all the doom and gloom who would not have bothered hanging around.
I didn't even go Friday as I had to work so what does that make me?
As it goes if I had been there on Friday I would have been off as soon an the final whistle went, can you tell me for what reason I would need to stay behind to clap the players for their efforts I can't get over that, their effort has been piss poor for a start, the players are not the 'Club' their a small part of it, a well paid part of it as it goes.
Shows the difference between supporters and spectators for me.
So those of us who have followed the club home and away spending thousands of pounds over 40 or 50 years are not true supporters unless we stay behind to applaud the players. What a load of rubbish.
I'd probably call you a fan. Same as people who turn up every week but boo players or slag them off. Not really supporting is it?
