What a fucking bunch of shitcunts of the highest order they have not one bit of intergrity for our club . So fuck the lot of em and just give them both barrels

Is that what you would do at your clubs home games?

Probably banned from their Ground if you can call their shitpit a Ground.

Mentions on Twitter of possible pitch invasions every game. WBA cost Lerner £200k. Hit him in the place he only cares about, his wallet

Yes, that'll be clever. Do they not understand that it won't be his money paid out and it won't be fines more than once?

To be fair what else are the authorities going to do?

Dock us points?  What a difference that'll make.
Kick us out of the league?  We're doing that just fine without the Premier League's help.
Close parts of the ground?  The Board will probably do that anyway soon as part of their next money saving scheme.

It's got to the point of not mattering really.  The Board don't give a shit about the consequences so why should the fans?

Go ahead and act like a Bluenose idiot. They used to be very good at pitch invasions.

And as for why the fans should give a shit, it would probably be the banning orders* and criminal records that they'll be on the end of.

*I know, I know. Lucky them, not having to go anymore. Etc.

We should do something with those bloody scarves. A mass burning perhaps??

I believe I saw on T V some game in Italy that when the Manager or referee made bad decisions that the white hankies were waved around and they whistled, it looked quite effective and they got their point across.
could this waving of white hankies be done on our remaining home games, but also there should be some support of
Remi to show him the fans understand that the board have tied his hands

Agree with this, but maybe not the burning!

It should be arranged that everyone takes 'that' scarf to a home game and all throw them onto the pitch.

My son has a 100% win record at Villa park and we're coming up, so everybody chill out.

You can't have people waltzing down to the front of the stands to chuck scarves on the pitch, its a health and safety hazard. If you wished to do something meaningful with the scarves then get fans to tie them to the gates and metal fence on the Trinity Rd - It would take quite some coordination though and I seriously question whether there is the motivation to do this.

God forbid any protest should contravene health and safety standards. That's probably where the Suffragettes went wrong.

I'm amazed our insightful leaders haven't picked up that the majority are a bit miffed today and made some sort of statement.
Ok, they haven't got the message then, we must give it to them on Saturday, the only thing that'll work is not to go, it's the only thing the fuckwits will understand.
A crowd of around 10k all waiving white flags/hankies will get the message across I think, no pitch invasions or violence, just clear, silent waving of white flags, which is what they have done.

I think that what happened on Saturday is the best way to protest. I was really shocked at the 23,000 attendance. Gates like that and lower for remaining fixtures will tell the story much more persuasively.

Apathy is a strong tool.

That would actually be quite impactful and not get anyone banned from the ground.

Might chuck in the FA Cup final scarf too.
