They don't have to do them for trespass - just climbing the barrier was enough to hand out this swingeing ban; it's a win for them, they'll see it as one/two more of the mouthy minority who protest at matches no longer in the stadium. Drive some fans away, ban some more and you'll soon be just left with a couple of handfuls of malcontents and the few thousand 'it's their club, they can do what they want' types rattling round the septic tank that the KC has become.
It just makes it all the more easy for new owners, whenever they finally arrive, to become instant heroes. The incompetence and pettyness of the current regime is so laughable you just have to shake your head and chuckle.
I've seen at least three banning orders on Twitter, though the other two much shorter than this one. And people say the protests don't bother Ehab.
Whether they bother him or nor is one thing, but he's banning them because he can, not because of them.
To be honest, I don't think it was a great idea to post a picture of himself with the banner both before and after the Sheff Utd game under his real name on Twitter. Even Ehab and his dunce brigade could work that one out. Sometimes i don't think I should post on here under my real name....I mean theres not many Graysjacket's to track down.........
It's looking that way, IT - as an old cynic, I dread the result; I just hope 'the remainers' see the importance of concessions for kids and vote accordingly and not just to save a few quid on their own seat.
If ever there was something to incite a mass pitch invasion banning someone for this, this will probably do it. Ehab is good at this now, suggested whistles and now this, #ehabjustkeepsongiving
I'm not surprised he's been banned, I would be amazed if he is surprised, too; although it does seem draconian in its length. I can only believe the intention was to get banned, perhaps to be used in the ongoing campaign as a focus point. I do wonder if it is worth it to the individual concerned - his call though.
He may well be surprised at the length of the ban, after the game casually walking right across the width of the pitch without being challenged by a steward, even when walking about in camera shot with the Allam out banner the stewards didn't seam overly fussed. What it does mean is if you are going onto the pitch you are likely to get a 3 year ban so best make the crime worth the punishment.
All boycotting City fans should turn up for the Villa game with an 'Allams Out' banner and take them on the pitch at the end of the game. You go ahead and ban me Allam. I've not been for three years anyway
He's already boycotting due to the owners and only came back for one game to protest, he's not surprised by the ban, he doesn't care about it, he's not going to contest it and expects that it will be removed when a new owner comes in.
There was meant to be a ballot this week on the new concessions proposal to be implemented in time for Saturday's game. Instead, **** all has happened, we still don't know what the proposal will be or who will be balloted and how. Suspicions that it'll be another sham consultation have not been addressed. The club has remained silent on this and continued to ignore and exclude their supporters committee who have raised concerns and who should be the ones deciding this anyway instead of some fake vote. Instead Ehab has focussed the club's efforts on sending out this wave of banning orders for people who have dared to oppose him. What a horrible, thick ****.
I don't think the supporters committee should be the ones deciding anything when only a fraction of the tiny group are democratically elected to represent people and have an agenda other than to serve themselves. When the likes of Richard Campion and Kate Leeming are picked out of a hat to be on that committee, giving them responsibility to decide anything on behalf of everyone would be dangerous. So I'm not sure why you've come out with that.
