    Any so called ‘protest’ best be really well thought out, if it is to have any impact at all. Or is it a lot of hot air!

    Someone pm me stepans email. I’ll send him a clean, rational explanation of what I feel and see what I get back.

    Basically its a choice between pissing them off or having no affect at all.

    I suppose one of the points that I am making, is that all the owners of the clubs which I have included pictures of, are still at their respective clubs, as far as I am aware. So protesting may make supporters ‘feel good’, but will it have any positive effect?

    Possibly or possibly not you could find Rupp ready to listen. You are much less likely to make him do something by “Pissing him off”

    It's not that I want them out. I just want them to change the way they're doing things.
    Invest some of their fortunes in the club, buy and retain decent players and have a proper management structure.
    Simples. If they do that I'd be happy. They almost certainly won't though. If that's the case they should go back from whence they came and fanny about with someone elses club. Or better still get out of football all together.

    That will happen in spades if we are either fighting relegation or actually get relegated. No protest required!

    Will you post a copy of it on here. It’ll be interesting to see his reply and a few might want to use it as a template

    Does anybody recall the fan's protest at VP circa 2010 when McCall was expected to be either sacked or to leave? Thousands of SOS (Save our Stuart) cards were printed and distributed at the following home game and held up during the game at some pre-organised time. The intention was to keep McCall at VP irrespective of what one of the then owners wanted to do.

    It did a fat load of good and McCall left of his own volition within 48 hours. Fans' protests don't have a great track record and needs a lot more careful thinking than simply turning up with a few hand-written placards or singing a few cringeworthy songs directed at the owners.

    With the benefit of hindsight, one of my friends did the right thing and didn't renew his ST.
