    Although I can’t see us getting past the first round, we should keep it going and not attend any matches. That might get his attn, although we would struggle to hold the party line if we drew a big club

    If you are suggesting a march, then you will need to liaise with the Police!
    Protests and marches: letting the police know
    By law you must tell the police in writing 6 days before a public march if you’re the organiser.

    Tell the police the:

    • date and time of the march
    • route
    • the names and addresses of the organisers
    The police have the power to:

    • limit or change the route of your march
    • set any other condition of your march
    If you arrange a march at short notice, you must still tell the police as soon as you can.

    The police can also:

    • change the location
    • limit how long a rally lasts
    • limit the amount of people who attend
    • stop a sit-down protest if it blocks road traffic or public walkways

    I've always believed in voting with your feet but that's up to the individual.

    If Rahic wont keep you away from the club then maybe the gutless football will. Take yer pick.

    Also putting pressure on sponsors would be a good tactic. Let them know your displeasure. They'll get a more immediate dialogue with the higher up's than any forum member.

    All clubs have fans forums so we could go onto their forum and ask if they would consider not attending whilst explaining our situation might work might not.

    I'm sure if we all do our own thing collectively it will certainly make them sit up and think.

    Me and 3 of my mates were going to try and shell out on a plane to fly round vp for a bit then over Edins house. Pointless you say about his house but the last time the coward did a runner he didn't go to Germany he was hiding at his house. But I'm in for a tenner rather than the 175 I was in for

    I believe his racing season is over, but maybe fly a banner over his place of work.

    Plane comes, goes, nowt changes. The billboard is a better idea IMO, reminding him daily, like Leeds did with their nutcase owner. "Gary vete Ya" (Gary get out) via posters, t-shirts and chants let to pressure building game after game till dopy Gary quit Valencia, simple thing, in his face...."Edin Get Out".

    Placing adverts in the T&A and local freebies, sutiably worded, perhaps with a list of subscribers (with their Season Ticket membership number in brackets) would be pretty powerful.

    Celtic fans created an advert, which got published. Not seeking to rid the club of an owner, but still fairly controversial.

    The ad read: “As Celtic supporters, we regrettably recognise that our club had an association with Rangers (1872) through the collective descriptive term, The Old Firm.

    “We believe this term is now redundant following the liquidation of Rangers (1872). On February 1, Celtic supporters will support our team in the semi-final against a new club which came into being in 2012.

    “This will be the first ever meeting between the two clubs and the purpose of this statement is to place our position on record so that Celtic supporters can enjoy the occasion for what it is and without playing any part in what we see as the Rangers ‘club continuation’ fiction.” https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/celtic-fans-spark-storm-protest-5040733

    Bombard Edin with emails telling him how you feel. Better than a banner.

    Genuine question. Can anyone recall such animosity by the fans towards the owners of the club than there is now?

    Since 1979 I have actively supported City through thin and thick but I can't recall hearing the fan base being as angry as I see now.
