The Rocket March!

Post by rhyspac »

I first saw the march at the derby game, and yesterday broke my Rocket cherry and joined the march! (was only in there for a quick pint before the game so didnt get to meet anyone.) Back to the march what a brilliant idea loads of people taking photos even a reporter asked me what was happening! Quality way to get fired up for the game! Anyway Who else was in the march?

I was there but I wouldn't go as far as to say I was in it. I kind of got the impression it was more of a strictly 'The Herd' thing so I just walked alongside while singing the songs. May he rest in peace and whatnot, but I would have felt really silly joining in with a bunch of people grieving over someone I've never even heard of!

TS i think rhyspac is going on about the march from the Rocket and not the one that was for Dainton, although they did come together outside the Armory.
I was in the one from the Rocket and both marches came together when we was at the bottom of the steps and the march for Dainton was coming down them so everyone stood still and clapped.
It was a touching march for him and may he rest in peace :(

I was going to join the march but I'd rather watch it and take in the breathtaking atmosphere!
