I know that all Thistle fans will share in the feelings of horror and disgust at the appalling loss of life in the Paris terrorist attacks. I expect that we will be asked to observe a minute's silence at the Inverness game, which is only right and proper. But I do wonder if we need to express an element of defiance as well as compassion to our acknowledgment of the dreadful thing that happened yesterday. It may seem like a daft idea, and I'll drop the thing completely if folk indicate that it is, but would it be fitting if we had a rendition of the French national anthem prior to the start of Saturday's game? I'm not normally keen on national anthems at sporting events, but I think it might be appropriate for us to show solidarity with the people of France, as well as expressing our sorrow at their loss. The Marseillaise is one of the most stirring anthems in the world and I'm sure we could find someone to sing it for us. Hell, I'd have a go myself at joining in if someone produced a song sheet. As I say, if might be a daft idea. Any thoughts?
