Lets not forget, these protests aren't a council run thing, it's just a group of fans who have stepped up. They don't owe anyone anything but as far as I can see are just trying to help.

Far from it mate. Non of us involved in this protest group want to be doing this. There are only three home games left this season though and as we have no desire to have to protest at the start of next season we want to try to keep the focus on Randy Lerner now, call on him to make a statement regarding the concerns we have raised in an open letter to him and also get him to action the three requests with in that open letter. By protesting now we'd like to think it will help ensure the club is in much better shape next season which will mean there is no need to protest. I disagree. There's been changes to the board and on the managerial side and whilst there's a lot of hard work to be done, it's a start and hopefully a step in the right direction. Leaving the new people to get on with it for now would be the best way forward.Great. We're still getting relegated with the worst team in memory so I think I'll wait and see if the new board makes any difference first. Bernstein or whoever it was wittering on about the importance of an English boss suggests to me they've learned nothing. Of course we have to wait. Where's the fairness in having a pop at the board when some of them have only been there for a couple of months? Er, I think the protests are mostly about the owner. The one common denominator though the villa decline. If he had been more hands on for the last four seasons (being kind) he'd have seen Fox and various other personnel were not up to the job. He wasn't paying attention to the club he owns and this is where we are as a result. The new board with football knowledge is four years too late.

I am taking mny 6 year old to his second game and I don't want him to miss any of it - however awful it is on the pitch!Good luck, the only Villa win either of my kids have ever seen was when I took my daughter to see us beat Millwall Ladies at The Den last year. My son wouldn't be bothered if he never saw us play again. When I was the same age, Villa were flying up the divisions and exciting everyone who saw them. That's why I really fucking hate Lerner - he's lost us a generation of Villa fans. And I'm not talking about glory hunters but potential fans - kids of loyal fans - who, understandably, don't want to watch some absolutely dreadful shit every week. This will be on my mind when I'm letting them all know how I feel at the next matches I'm going to. Organised, spontaneous, walkouts, chucking stuff, shouting abuse, banners. Do the fucking lot from now until the end of the season. And it still won't be enough to convey my anger.
I'm sure the players also realise how badly they've let us down
