Perhaps the protest could be postponed in light of our captain's plight? Footballing matters don't strike me as the most important display we, as fans, could make at the present time. I think more appropriate would be banners in support of Stan and making a huge noise inside VP.

Totally Agree. Some things are more important.

Well I think I will rethink my attendance to the game now, don't think I will bother, very sad day.

So because you can't get to protest you're not going to bother going to the match?

No because I wouldn't want to be in that kind of potential atmosphere when one of the lads has got that kind of problem, very simple really.

In other words there should be no kind of protest at all and that was one of the primary reasons  of me going, as for seeing Villa under McLiesh, not a chance in hell, wouldn't waste the money.

Could you not rise above these thoughts to show support for our captain ??

Will others, that's the point I'm making, and if there is any doubt that the protest could still go ahead then the game should be called of, think about it this has been just announced on the eve of the game.

The shitness of our club has to be put aside for now.

Let's get behind the team and show our support and affection for Stan, the Country's media will be watching, let's show them what a real football club is all about.

Surely a reason to get down there and back the rest of the lads in this tough time and help them get a result for Stan.

I'm sure everyone there will be supporting Stan and the team. The result of a football match is of utter insignificance when compared to the importance of a community getting out there to give support to one having a tough time.

You're not suggesting that the club chose to announce this today to distract from the protest are you?
