Quote from: TopDeck113 on February 15, 2016, 05:20:54 PMSerious question. When a Liverpool fan suggests a protest on an online forum, what reaction do you think they get?What about a protest against £77 tickets? Waste of time, mate. No one will walk out.If you support the club, you'll stay and support the team.You'll walk alone on this one.Etc.What about a protest against Hicks and Gillette?Waste of time, mate.We're stuck with them.I'll support the team whoever owns them.Protesting won't shift 'em.Etc.I know it's a quarter of century on, but do you reckon if we keep on campaigning we'll finally get a new inquest into Hillsborough..?This. 1000 times this.

ChrisW,Just to turn the question around, what's your suggestion please?
The fans that have successfully got rid of owners, targeted the owner personally and intentionally. Not turning up or protests rarely work as if doesn't affect them personally. Being thousands of miles away kind of rules out turning up on his doorstep and anyway, these people tend to thrive on conflict. Ridicule though, is something they rarely can deal with.
Needs to be made personal directly at Lerner. 30,000 people wearing lerner masks and dressed as buffoons would be more embarrassing. Need him to start hating us

A sign of unity would put us in a better position in the summer to attract / retain (I know, i know) players and possibly hold on to Garde.Don't get me wrong, if we were in a situation where Randy did not want to sell, or the club were persisting with a poor manager I'd be right with you. But I honestly can't see what you expect to achieve save for making the place more toxic than it already is and possibly derailing any recovery before it has even started.Fantastic support between now and the end of the season would give us the best possible change of a as dignified an end as possible and retaining any people we hope to keep - including Garde.
