Protests Planned.

I believe a big factor tomorrow will be the weather, an update suggests it's not going to be as bad as originally forecast Friday good luck you guys.

 

Where is the meeting point please? Are any groups meting before say at thee corn dolly and walking up?

 

I imagine the meeting point is where the protest is although a few will likely meet on North parade for a pint first I would have thought.

 

Would appreciate, on behalf of the ex pats and exiles, feedback after the game or before it, on how the protest went, approx numbers, reactions etc from someone who took part. Many thanks!

 

Reaction from the owner and CEO, probably zero, going on the past few months. stick your head in the sand and hope it all goes away , ostrich type of approach.

 

I assume the protest is now shelved and that season tickets duly renewed.

 

No but you can still say thank you to those who made Rupp pay attention. Had we done it your way the club wouldn't have been interested.

No offence. It's just how it works.

 

I think we need to keep the pressure on and make sure Mr Rupp is true to his word.
I will still turn up at 1.30, let him know 1 open letter changes nothing .
It would have been better to stand in front of the fans and say these things 2 weeks ago.
Actions are sometimes louder than words

 

I've renewed but I'm also still attending the protest.

 

The desperate statement changes nothing.

 

Why what's changed? Because he wrote a letter? He's done nothing he's changed nothing, that smug cretin is still in charge.

Read what he wrote to us after Rahic and see if he stuck to what he promised then.

He's changed nothing so we change nothing.

 

The protest most still happen. That was a bollocks statement from Rupp.

@Bantam Steve have you replied with thoughts on social media yet.

 

Wrong bantamsteve fordy

 

Don't confuse the poor lad. Surely there can't be more than one fan called Steve

 

Send it to the right one then mate.

 

Am too busy washing cars buddy

 

Still got to happen. Can't let a fairly waffling statement with all the key parts just copied and pasted from his Rahic statement, change the thinking.

If anything, a protest is MORE important after the statement. As Rupp needs to see he can't just kick the can down the road with his words, he needs to be held accountable for action.

 

So other than putting out a statement of intent for next season and promising to be more involved, what other actions could he take right now?
Can he buy the ground? No
Can he sign new players? No

He could sack sparks and bring in a new CEO but I doubt even that would passify some on here.

I’ve renewed ST and I’m (for now) happy with the statement. Proof will be in the summer once the window opens and contract renewals are offered.
Another miserable summer and piss poor pre season friendly performances going into the new season and I’ll be right behind you all kicking Rupps / Sparks door through
