Saddened to hear that 8 Year old Ethan Matthews has passed away. The lad put up a huge fight and many Charlton fans are asking for an 8th minutes applause for the little man. Please can we do this
RIP ETHAN MATTHEWS
A lifelong Luton Town fan

Here's a link to an article with a little information about Ethan; www.lutontown.co.uk/news/2019/december/christmas-hospital/I know these very sad circumstances are probably more common than most of us like to think about. But I can't think of a reason why we could not offer some applause for Ethan at the weekend, to help - even just a tiny bit - to ease the grief of his loved ones and show sympathy for others in a similar plight. |

Thank you Lardiman, yes very sad situation so a bit of respect and applause will do no harm |

Very thought provoking sad news of Ethan and the other children at the hospice.
An eighth minute applause from all at The Valley on Saturday is the very least that we can do.

Is someone serioualy asking a question on will we applaud or not?
It goes without saying we will, to a man, I don't get the question at all.

A post is fine but to start a thread asking people to vote on it was poor form.
Pleased to see it's now been removed.

It'd be nice it the word gets spread - people will almost certainly applaud if they know why, but not everyone reads this forum. Could the club ward everyone prematch?

I was proud of both sets of fans. Nobody should die so young.

Life is but short frames of pain and pleasure. Every week we lose two fans, mostly through age and sometimes tragically a child through no fault of their own. Enjoy every match, every smile, every hug from a fellow fan. Nothing is long term but it took me a long time to realise this.

Was great hearing both sets of fans singing only one Ethan Mathews
Was then not so great seeing some of their fans slating the Charlton fans on twitter after the game, the same fans who joined them to celebrate a little lads short life.

Good people look bad on twitter. It's the electronic version of plate throwing. |
