The likes of Fox will only really get the message when they're embarrassed in front of guests, therefore something like a total boycott of a game needs serious consideration. we need the message to be very, very plain.

It's a romantic notion but won't get even close to happening. Notwithstanding the season ticket holders that will want to get full use out of their ticket, there are only so many you can reach. Remember that Bells Are Ringing fiasco, where we all said it'd be ace, and it was on the news? The club started playing the bongs and it was almost total silence. Often ideas online will remain just that.

The walkout got a mention by Alan Smith on Sky on the game summary. Very sympathetic to our situation as you would expect.

Tom Fox got the treatment tonight as well, the massive whopper.

I thought the 74th minute walkout went pretty well. I didn't partake myself because I wanted to see the game through to the bitter end, but I don't blame people for wanting to do the walkout.

It was also good to hear a loud rendition of Tom Fox what a wanker. Let's see him throw 20,000 of us out, the c***.

90 minutes of us venting our feelings at Fox might have some sort of effect on him at least.

Apparently a 13 year old kid in the Lower North was wrestled to the ground by stewards for holding a Lerner out banner.
You know what to do v Spurs....

I was in the Lower North and saw him holding up the banner at the front. There was a confrontation with the steward but it died down and he wasn't thrown out.

I thought protest wise it was pretty effective tonight to be fair.

Loads went when the third went in

A noticeable load more streamed out around the ground at 74 minutes

Those who were left continued to make their feelings known

Around me there was no in fighting between goers and stayers either, it just went strangely quiet, like everyone was biting their lip for a minute to just allow each other to do what they needed to do. There was much more hostility between fans as fans walked out as the Liverpool score racked up.

The Spurs TV game will be the one to crank it up for. Worldwide tv, team going for the title, us dead and buried. We could have a lot of fun at fox and lerner's expense. Needs to be very visual.

It's not on TV is it? Thought it was moved because of them being in Europe.

I walked out on 74. First time I've done that in 50 years of watching Villa. I'll do it again though.Was proud to walk out with other fans. Outside there were loads walking down Witton Lane. The gloves are off, the real fight starts now. Loved the anti Lerner song too. He watches all the games on TV. so he will have heard it.

The TV cameras seem to like showing random people holding the Lerner out scarves, the ones with the American flag crossed out on one end, and the Union Jack on the other, above their head. Noticed it on Saturday and again tonight.
