    When do they stand up and say enough is enough. These are seasoned pro's - individuals that should be taking pride in their work (please don't laugh).

    In my employment, if I saw someone coming in over my head that I was concerned about, I'd be the first to go to my employer to discuss it. JJ did it in the past when he had concerns about wages during Slater/TJ, we need him even more now. He shouldn't be alone in it either.

    We need someone to go public. Hendo last night, when he mentioned the constant change of personnel wasn't helping, was the nearest we've gotten to it.

    The fans and players should stand side by side. Would we begrudge any player speaking out? It's time to stand up and be counted.

    Nice idea, but aside from a small handful, the current players could not give a monkeys.

    As Makienok said when his Bentley was delayed by the Forest protests, "what has this got to do with us?'

    They are scabby mercenaries, 75% of them won't be here next season [thank f*ck]

    Is that true RE Makienok?

    The thing is - we live in a time of player power. Even if it's a handful, if they band together to speak out it could have big consequences. Instantly you'd have governing bodies like the PFA eager to protect their investments.

    I don't imagine any of our managers since CP are even aware of the LMA - so no point going down that route.

    100% true about Cak-ienok

    He was blocked in the car park - fans asked him to support us [naive I know] and Tweeted that he had replied "this is not our problem"

    In fact - thinking out loud - maybe the LMA should be a focus of our intent. They won't like seeing one of the clubs within it's jurisdiction replacing managers so flippantly.

    As long as players pick up their pay cheque that is all they worry about.

    Same time as big Mak, Igor came to the window and applauded the fans a bit, not too much as he doesn't quite want to get sacked but he seemed to support those of us who were out in force, even Kashi gave us a wave (not sure he supported us or not though).

    The waste of space Vaz Te also seemed to want to get out in a hurry
