    He's not even first in the queue for tickets. Ridiculous username.

    Instead of carrying a claret and amber coffin, with it being Good Friday wouldn't a big claret and amber cross be more relevant?

    How about voting with feet but a different way, currently fans not turning up, all he does is announce crowd that you are there. Announce 17,000 but only 7k in ground.
    Bigger impact how does he deal with 100s even thousands standing outside the ground refusing to move or enter. Imagine the exposure press there ect Banners the works.

    You’d have fans moaning that the policing is costing the club extra revenue and we’re going to be in trouble with EFL

    Every idea gets Vetoed! So we end up doing nothing and we fall into national league next season with a whimper. If we going to go down which is a strong possibility with short funds I’d rather go down fighting. As a collective we need to just go for it, they will be some disgruntled fans but if it all pays off I’m sure that will be forgotten about. I’m expecting it to take time there is similarities with us and Blackpool and the oysters refusing to budge. But in the long term it’s worth the fight.

    No because I actually want to still attend games so I’ll leave that to the boycott and non renewal brigade that seemingly are all mouth.

    Genuine protest has to be purposeful, organised, coordinated and underpinned by fan representation. It needs engagement between supporters groups, which takes at least a bit of time.

    There'll be a natural diminishing of crowds between now and May anyway.

    I've no idea. But how many, given the chance, circumstances and outcome, would do exactly the same again?

    Coventry are on the cusp of Premier League promotion and about to play Man United at Wembley in an FA Cup semi final.

    I'd happily take a night in the cells, slap on the wrist and fine for that trade off.

    No pitch invasion has ever been mooted by the ISG. That was your suggestion.

    You have lots of ideas on how to disrupt the club and you would be warmly welcomed into the ISG to put your (legal) ideas forwards. Even if you weren't a member of the ISG you would be very welcome at any arranged protest.

    The Germans peacefully protested by disrupting games for months against the the league selling media rights to an outside investor. It took a while but fan power prevailed and the DFL pulled the deal.

    When done the right way, it works.

    Instead of throwing tennis balls onto the pitch we should all take a handful of grass seed, kill two birds with one stone.

    Nothing we are simply weak and will continue to.put up with this shit snd if anybody has the balls to do something they will be frowned upon by happy clappers.

    The Tranmere game should be the game to humiliate these loons but we wont all fire and piss

    Not forgetting the famous Green & Yellow scarf protest, it is what it is hopefully fans will make what THEY believe is the correct call, and stop trying to ridicule other fans we have enough problems.
    Julian Rhodes maybe Mark Lawn no chance let's say there's no.love lost between the two of them.

    explain what exactly you are willing to do?
    I’ve highlighted some of your words.
    Will you protest on the pitch?
    Will you confront Sparks?
    Will you travel to Germany to confront Rupp?

    or will you
    A. Send some letters
    B. Boycott the game?
    C. Attend the game and then walk out?
    D. Chant during the game?
    E. Do nothing of any use?

    I’ll go for option E because you are weak.
