CaptnCanary 0 Posted January 17, 2009 For us that weren''t there and didn''t hear the announcement could somebody try to recount what was said and what the crowd reaction was like? Did many of the crowd have a clue who he was? I hope so. I couldn''t help but think of Arrdee when I heard the result today. I''m sure its sausages all round up there tonight.

He got a good reception in the upper Barclay, I heard a few loud and sincere claps of appreciation from other fans, who I only presume know him personally or from on here.I think it''s fair to say he was smiling down on us today.

Made it hard to hear aswell. But still brilliant to have a tribute and brilliant to have it actually happen so well done and thanks to those that helped.
