Remembrance Sunday


Rarely do I stray from the comfortable fields of football geekery. However, it is worth stopping, pondering and remembering the sacrifice that so many have made for the citizens of this country and around the world - it is truly humbling.

It wouldn't be a LB In The Changing Room post without switching onto football and it is appropriate, sitting in Edinburgh, to link to what the club itself describes as 'the proudest moment in a proud club's history'. This piece here from Alex Massie gives a lot of detail behind the story of the Heart of Midlothian team that signed up to fight in the 1st World War. It is well worth reading both links.
