Yes. For maximum exposure we need the Gestapo to keep wading in. Use them.

It sounds good in theory but holding a banner aloft for 20 minutes sounds like a stress position last carried out at Gitmo.

Buy a Lerner out t-shirt or use a Sharpie on an old white one and wear it to every game until he sells , what are they going to do stop you going in?

A banner protest (We'll call it a Bannan protest to keep the clubs snoopers in the dark) could be really effective.
It's a protest, given last weeks nonsense by the stewards, that will get attention.
It's defiance and a challenge to the lowerarchy that have possession of the Villa.

And would the stewards be able to resist wading in, given their apparent dull intellect?

Could be fun and put our plight in the spotlight for a short while.

I'm sure I read something late last night about fans bringing in a tennis ball for the Chelsea game and throwing them on to the pitch in the 20th minute.

Searches are worse at away games, so there's less chance of getting anything in.

I suspect that any banner could be confiscated on the grounds that it could be an obstruction to the view of other fans

what if everyone at swansea held up an A4 size piece of paper , printed at home with something like  fox out in big font bold letters , folded up and put in your pocket  before the match . maybe someone could hand them out near  where the coaches park or in the pubs where we are drinking , I could put mine in my underpants

Searches at away grounds are always a bit hit and miss. I staggered into Upton Park this season after going straight from work to the pub to the ground, wearing a rucksack with my laptop in and all number of wires and cables hanging out and nobody batted an eyelid. Ushered straight through
