Next home game, protest

Didn’t Hull City fans protest about a name change? They’re not called Hull Tigers are they?

Similarly, didn’t Cardiff fans complain when Tan changed their colours to red, seen as they were known as the Bkuebirds. I notice they are back to playing in their traditional blue home kits.

Finally, didn’t Liverpool fans protest, by walking out at a pre-determined minute on the clock, over ticket prices. Sure their owners reversed their decision.

Maybe a mass walk out in the 32nd minute to represent the age of the scapegoat?

 

Season tickets?

 

Great bantz.

 

I don’t particularly want to stop going to games just to get at R and R,but what about at the next home game just boycotting the kick off ? Maybe thousands of empty seats and no kick off atmosphere might hit home to them.

 

Didn't we do that for most of last season?

 

Now you mention it..........

 

Blackpool fans have been protesting against their owners for years to no effect. Coventry fans had a not one penny more campaign for years and SISU are still there and still fighting over the stadium. The majority of City fans who attend have season tickets so he already has your cash, he’s taken a hit on shirt sales I’m certain because they’re dreadful this season. Three more months with this squad and coach will have us in League 2 next season. If he loses interest next season we could be out of the league all together by May 2020.

 

In fairness, the Oyston's are a special breed!

 

Myself at a mate

My mate and myself organised this walkout in the bad old days at the Albion,the firework nearly took my mates head off when sent up from my garden.

 

Some on here will try to tell you the walk out was pointless because Brighton haven't progressed since then, just like we won't.

 

Despite my newly-found, complete lack of faith in the head coach and ownership, I do think it's too early for any form of protest. I do think most clubs who have opted to stage any kind of protest have gone through worse. However, I'm not sure at what stage it becomes a reasonable response from the fans.

 

The thing is all the marches,walkouts and many other forms of protest is only a small part,having a local lad turn up and stuff 250 million plus into the club helped a bit

 

I never said that I said they were up for sale, both fans want their owners to leave and they've made enough protestations for the owners to put the club up for sale. There's nothing else fans can do. Unfortunately they are pricing themselves out of a sale. Ours could do the same especially seeing as they have zero assets to sell. Nobody in their right mind would pay let's say 10 million for our club unless they were going to buy back the ground and be determined to get us out of this division as they won't make their money back.

 

You never know what's round the corner.

But, honestly, and I can't speak for Brighton fans, but just having a reasonable owner and sensible business model would make me happy

 

We didn't have much choice when the new chairman took over,the ground was sold and we were playing 75 miles away in gillingham,although we returned to a temporary home we were still losing money 1 million a season and then Tony Bloom turned up and built us a fantastic stadium and then we were losing 25 million a season.Premiere football was the only place to potentially not lose money.This is the modern day football model and it stinks.

 

Well you're the man to do it mate.

 

Still is the only place to not lose money, to be fair.

Every other division just drains money.

 

Unfortunately not all the clubs gambling to join the exclusive club will gain entry and in the process some will run up huge debts trying .
