I'm all for free speech, but anyone who takes part in this is an absolute knobhead.  Grow a pair and get over it.

Nothing wrong with a peaceful protest unless you're happy with the club being run by clueless yanks making mind numbingly dumb decisions. We are customers, we are free people and we are free to protest. I'll be there at 6pm.

Dear oh dear.  Laughing stock here we come. 



Board only have themselves to blame. Don't blame the fans. The board have approached several managers and have been turned down and in desperation are selling a man who relegated Blues twice as the best candidate.

If they went after him from day one it wouldn't be as bad but the whole thing has been a mess that is ending like a car crash.

'The fans'?  I am a fan thanks very much so I won't be blaming myself.  Protests.  FFS.

Bet you weren't saying that when they bankrolled Bent were you? 

Being disappointed is one thing, but outrageous comments like that are just silly.

I won't.

And can we take a step back and remember we are only interviewing him at this stage; not renaming the Holte End after him.

I don't understand why some people are so down on people protesting, in whatever form in may take. This regime have for so long said they listen to the fans, and take their views on board. So surely that is an invitation for the fans to offer an opinion if they feel strongly against something.

I cant decide if a protest is a good idea or not. Yes it will be embarrassing for the club but for how long? Few days at the most? Which if it stops us getting Mcleish will be worth it.

It MAY just make Randy realize that this is a bad bad move.

And as the protests on here and Facebook are in the news anyhow is a physical protest any worse?
As long as people are behaved and rent a chavs dont turn up then maybe its a good idea?

I could be swayed either way!

I can imagine someone penning their ' I have a dream ' speech. Get real and get on with it. If you protest tomorrow, you are a knob and give the Cockney media more reason to make us look bad ( they do not need any encouragement). The minority again will turn us into a whinging laughing stock, dont tar us with the same brush.

Exactly.   I think this situation is worthy of a protest.
