Knowing the reaction that would draw from any football ground (the former church of the working man) it's interesting that a press story appears suggesting Rovers will attempt it.

On the one hand she was honourary vice-president although I'm not sure what she has done for the club. (She may have done loads, I'm genuinely not sure).

On the other hand it's a chance to show up Rovers fans as the inhumane, merciless hooligans that it's in a number of people interests to portray us as. It will also ensure yet more publicity for our owners. Even the photo in they article is of the chuckle brothers when it's really absolutely nothing to do with 'the family'.

Shameless and cheap by Reading to bring Hillsborough into the equation to silence any dissenting voices.

Keep politics OUT of football.

The thought of any tribute to the most most divisive person this country has ever known fills me with horror. Shame on the club for even considering it.

didn't know coco had gone!

The real surprise here is that first someone realised that Thatcher had an affiliation with the club! and second that someone is prepared to make a decision!

SHOCK HORROR!

As for the game, no wins in 11, so can’t see us breaking that trend, 0-1

Still two days away until the game but I have that nagging feeling of a massive dissapointment coming our way. Rarely do I get such a strong feeling, but I'm predicting that we'll be leading for the majority of the match only for Derby to sucker punch us late on and claim an ujust draw. Very similar to the Brighton game earlier this year.

I need a pint.

Will be going to the match but will boo long and loud if it happens.

Have always been ashamed of the club's association with her.

I was debating whether to come down from Glasgow on Saturday, but for this reason, count me in. I sincerely hope the hag's name has been taken out of the programme by then too.

Well, when I was a teenager in a mining community, my mates who worked at t'pits used to take great delight in deriding me for choosing to try and get an education whilst they had the latest lambrettas, got pi**ed even weekend and looked forward to going on strike each winter to force pay rises based on power cuts, so forgive me if I dont share your enthusiasm at her passing

I think anyone working in those conditions deserved a decent wage, especially as she was cutting the taxes for her rich tory mates.

and lets not forget how she branded all football fans as animals, more or less. Oh and while i'm at It, what about the Hillsborough

cover-up, her and cabinet had their fingerprints all over that.

I'll leave it at that as this is a football mb.

To balance the argument - I would have absolutely respected a minutes silence to Maggie Thatcher.

Time and again conservative values have to pick up the pieces of Socialist policies & freeloaders.

Work hard - gain rewards - stand up for your country when needed. Thatchers values.

Hand wringers - do my head in - they ruin your country - and watch idley as damage is done.

Bit like down at Ewood.

(13 years of labour screwed the UK)

Utter garbage. who de-regulated the banks and perpetuated a " greed is good culture " ?

although I will say, a proper labour government would have done something about when they got to power,

but Blair was no proper socialist imo. Freeloaders, well you only need to look at football really, greed is good

though is'nt it !

which times are these? I know we are living in a time of tax payers (funny socialist idea that) picking up the bills it's costing the government to bail out private banks which have been left to do as they wish due to the neo conservative ideas of the free market, sure 13 years of New Labour also followed the same free market liberalism but New Labour isn;t exactly a bastion of socialism. ''Free loaders'' I guess a lot of the people working in the finance sector especially the one one still taking home 7 figure bonuses could fall into that bracket, since they are basically pocketing state hand outs, whilst at the same time I know plenty of people who work hard in full time jobs and don't really have much to show for it..

I'm sure if we lived in a 'society' that had more principles, and principles that went beyond financial gain what happened down at Ewood wouldn't have happened, take a look at German footy, but this is England and the free market rules thanks to Thatcher and unfortunaley her many millions of followers, so we have the Premier League which is all about money.
