Credit to them for trying to do something But with only that many turning up, it's had no impact whatsoever and makes it again look like a minority want change. Should have been next weekend lie everybody said.
With regards to next Saturday's protest, we need the Trust (or somebody equivalent) to say "this is what we are doing as a protest, I'll hope you join us". I know they laid out their details which have since been publicised in the papers and sports websites, but some fans have now decided to either do a walk out on 19:04 or sit in after the game and not move. It waters down the effect one protest could have. Once we've decided what we are doing, we can let Sky and the BBC know so it gets aired during their broadcasts of the game and/or highlights.
I don't. But the walk-out is being pushed heavily on the different Facebook groups which in itself could cause divide next Saturday.
No No and No again, don't let a vague rumour more than likely started by the Allams reduce the protests. They did it with the red card protest, when within one hour of the game ending news of Allams illness was the biggest news and because of that the protests during the playoffs became diluted. If the pressure had been kept up maybe the membership scam could of been changed. Past experience shows that relying on the word of the Allams and luck is not a good plan.
I think the red card was an excellent protest and should continue. If theres a few other ones it will dilute it and lose support. Idiots going on the pitch will lose support faster than anything.
Agree totally Cortez.. I don't care if the Chinese are signing on the 15th August.... OLM, you need to get someone on here with an itinerary and ask people to adhere to it for the purpose of volume. Splinter protests will look weak..
Sorry, this is just embarrassing. If this is the best an organised protest can do, i wouldn't bother in-front of the Sky cameras... On HDM, it looks even worse.
It's obviously not 'the best an organised protest can do', it's an example of what happens with a poorly organised protest that has no support.
Well I'm certainly not walking out on 19.04 and returning for the 2nd half. It's my ****ing club and the players deserve our support throughout the match. I want the allams out just as much as others but if anyone thinks a 100 or so fans marching through the city centre is going to help or walking out in a match I'm afraid you are wrong. They won't care what you do and will only sell up when it suits them.
They could have had a meet up on the marina while the sesh is on? We'd have had thousands! just give the kids some city balloons & jobs a good un! HDM wouldn't know who was who
I would suggest that a sit in after the game would be the most effective way to protest. Any post match comment or interviews would be subject to the background noise and chants etc. The stewards are pretty lightweight anyway so maybe the rozzers would get involved to get us out. A stadium full of peaceful but vocal protesters is going to make the news surely.
I'm organising a sit in when the games on and a walk out when its finished. Well I say finish I mean 85 minutes
Could we possibly include a walkout at about 45 minutes and resume the sit in after say an hour. I'll need a piss.
