dunsteral Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 i dont know whether we will be asked to give our support to the people of france at the hull city game on saturday as it is our first chance to do so, but if we are i am sure we will pay the utmost respect. I believe that tomorrow night at wembley the words of the french national anthem will be displayed on the big screens, but seeing how we haven,t got any big screens it would be almost impossible to sing it at AG. However we can show our support to our frenchman jonathon kodjia, after any official respect has been carried out by singing the french national tune with our own words as follows Oo aah kodjia Oo aah kodjia oo aah oo aah oo aah kodjia oo aah kodjia. Hopefully this will show him we are supporting him at this terrible time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
And Its Smith Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 Would probably be better to just sing the national anthem rather than change the words to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CotswoldRed Posted November 16, 2015 Report Share Posted November 16, 2015 I fully understand why people think it's a good idea to show solidarity. Is there really a need, though, to single Kodjia out because he's French? Unless he's personally affected I'm not sure if it's entirely necessary. Let him pay his respects as he wants to and leave it like that instead of making him some kind of figurehead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingLear Posted November 17, 2015 Report Share Posted November 17, 2015 I'm sure all he will want to concentrate on on Saturday will be playing football after the events of the past week. The national team and fans are holding a massive show of solidarity by singing the French national anthem tonight, an impeccably observed minutes silence at Ashton Gate would be my suggestion.
