Walking out doesn't seem enough. I am so angry with this shambles.

There's always my suggestion of throwing a bottle of piss at Fox.

Do they still sell  Aston Manor cider?

Not joining in with the "throw some wee on seventy-three" campaign, then?

Bottle of u-rine on fifty-nine? Chuck some poo on eighty-two?

Throw a turd when we concede a third.

I'll be doing this again at the weekend. May as well, would rather not see all of the game, beat a lot of the traffic and make a small stand with however many other hundreds or thousands join in.

I would sooner the demand was for investment while selling (he is already selling) but it seems like a nice venting of anger. Cant blame them for that.

The current statement pretty much just abuses the man then says he just needs to publicly say again he is selling at a decent price. If he did respond like they demand I cant see how fans would be any happier to be honest.

He blew it in January and rightfully receives criticism for it (along with the rest of the board). The next opportunity for Randy to do anything is the summer window. I would sooner they were demanding that.

I am generally very supportive of those that have made the effort to co-ordinate these protests, heaven knows we've all had enough of this tripe, but I'm still not convinced I can bring myself to walk out on 74 minutes.

Personally, I thought the banging of empty seats was a very poignant and effective signal of discontent, and goes hand in hand with those that do leave on 74. Is there any plan to co-ordinate something, or was this just a spontaneous response?  Apologies if this has already been covered earlier in the thread

Hi all. I am one of the fans behind the out the door on 74 campaign and the recent open letter. I have been meaning to come on here for a while to engage with you and get your feelings on the walkouts, good and bad, but as I am sure you are aware these things take some organising and having the time to come on here as been difficult to find.

If any of you have any questions, concerns or would just like to offer support then it would be good to hear your feelings. I have had a quick scan through the thread and as has been the feedback in general it is pretty mixed it seems.

I'm not sure how effective their 74th-minute protest will be, but they've written a very good letter, particularly when they describe the helpless anguish of the fans. I suspect, though, that it's one of many that Lerner has received. Does he even read them, let alone take them seriously?

They are next in line after Lerner and Fox get both barrels again. It was noticeable that when the crowd got going with their anti Lerner chant against Everton the performance on the pitch improved, or perhaps Everton just eased up at 3-0?
