    How difficult and how effective would it be to have an open letter to the ownership published in the National press outlining the groundswell of contempt being shown by supporters to the scheme ?
    Legal advice I assume may also need to be sought to ensure nothing that could be deemed libellous is included ?

    What about people bringing their application forms to the game, tearing them up.into tiny pieces and giving the players a confetti welcome as they enter the pitch?

    That sounds like a load of bollocks.

    What about mass self flagellation as a way of 'earning our stripes'?

    I can't make it myself, but I'm happy to suggest some as volunteers. <ok>

    Have the owners banned females from the ground...I didn't read that in the fine print ?

    How about people setting fire to their membership packs in a safe place maybe on the playing fields with kc in background. This needs filming and sharing on web for maximum impact

    Good point...although you never know if that's the next step!
    If Obi chooses the protest suggested by Askews then females will have to bring someone else's testicles to nail down...!

    How about " we say no Allam " then change it to make it more personal by pointing to an older gentleman or youth and singing " HE says NO" and just keep pointing at random youngsters & oaps? A bit like the empty seats song?

    That's another good idea. <ok>

    I doubt they'd be strong enough, but a mass launch of applications tied to chinese lanterns at sunset over the KCom could be visual.

    Perhaps a 101 uses for a membership application, could stir the imagination. Anyone know how to fold one to make a seat or a zimmer frame?

    No chinese lanterns
    Dangerous bloody things that injure animals and set people's houses on fire
    I'm going to start another campaign!

    Something for the Rotherham game or maybe the home play-off final. Or perhaps outside Allam Marine when its dark. Burning stuff always looks better when the light is fading. The further away it is the more chance we have of getting the press, including the national press, down.

    We really need an organising committee to discuss what we think we can and can't do and make sure we pull off what we can.

    I want to win this game. Have to agree with Steve Bruce

    "
    "I can understand that fans might not be enamoured with the new membership scheme or they might not be enamoured with a name change, but at the end of the day their club, their team, that they've supported through thick and thin and this should be a good time," said the City boss.

    "Yes, air your grievances, if you're unhappy, make yourself heard, complain in the right way. But as soon as kick-off comes, get behind the team.

    "At this particular time, everyone else is. Sheffield Wednesday fans are turning out in their thousands, so will the Derby fans, because they're genuinely excited about the play-offs.

    "Whatever the grievances are, whether it's me or the name change, air them in the right way.

    "At this vital time, we certainly need the fans."

    Someone get to Pulse and Cocktails sex shop right now. Buy a blow-up doll(male) write Allam across it's chest in black marker pen and dangle it from the upper west on a noose tied to the railing. We might need a couple of big lads with plenty of puff to blow it up but it would be easy to sneak into the stadium under a coat.

    Just deflate yours and bring that? Save someone the journey.
