In previous years we've auctioned off our poppy-bearing shirts, haven't we?

[Sir Charlie of Nicholas]

Anyone know roughly what they've gone for?

[Ashberto]

I never managed to establish whether the poppys were to remember all those who tragically fell in the world wars, or just our boys.

Though obviously, it would look a bit odd if some players wore them and others didn't. I find the whole thing a bit of a minefield tbh.

£2k will probably get you one.

Looks like about a grand each I'd guess.

I proposed the idea that it might have been a cgi won

She was amazed/disgusted that there was so little celebrating of fireworks night over there...

So whilst Remembrance Sunday is to do with 'the dead of all wars', the poppy itself is for our boys, I'd say.

I would add that a German national choosing to earn his living in the UK should be expected to show appropriate respect to his host nation :shrug:

to make profits off the blood of the working man...so it all fits :-)

[redgunamo]

that us liberating their country for them was a jolly good thing and us commemorating that is fair enough.

In public anyway.

Until they've re-armed themselves.


Interestingly, 11/11/11 is a significant day there too; it is the beginning of their version of Mardi Gras :-)

organisations was to let everyone else spend the money and lives, leaving them free to get on with controlling everything.
