Are we gonna protest yet?

What is it you want to do? What exactly are you protesting?

Short wants to sell and if rumours are to be believed there are people in the process of trying to buy the club.

Are you sure it's a good time to be showing the potential new owners what a bunch of wailing ingrate fannies we have in the fanbase? It might just put them off buying us after all. Is that what you want?

I blame social media. Suddenly everything's all "look at me, look at me, this is my opinion and I want the whole world to know it! It's my right as a person to share my thoughts with the world regardless of how inane, uninformed or downright stupid those thoughts might be!"

It seems the old lesson of "sometimes the best thing you can do is keep your mouth shut" has been lost over the past 5-10 years.

Can I ask when you last attended the Sol?

It was certainly a contributing factor. Do you think Grayson would have enjoyed seeing his first team pick being booed every touch? Of course not.

We haven't given it a chance to work  
:lol::lol::lol::lol:

Delusion if ever I have seen it.

"A contributing factor". Sure. And the reason why the rest of the team weren't dropped after also being booed? You skipped that one.

"Chance to work": Do you think the players turn up for each new game stripped bare of the memories of the rest of the season where they've been abused and booed? Surprisingly most people don't get over months of vitriol after 45 minutes of encouragement.

That's because he was the only one getting booed...go figure.

Look, there's no point arguing with you because you treat the club like a cult. I'm sorry to inform you it's a business, or rather a TNC. You've even been on here saying you will never criticise Byrne for the way she handled the Johnson fiasco. Have you ever criticised the club? Because if not, then you are not a free person. You are literally brainwashed, and that being the case, there is nothing I can do to convince you otherwise.

See in my eyes it’s people like yourself that don’t want to do anything and probably go to the games (I hope you go to the games if your having a input on it) and say nothing and even potentially applaud them off once they leave the field of play regardless of the result and I see that as a bigger problem than protesting as you are effectively condoning what the players and hierarchy serve up

He doesn't go. He's just a massive gobshite that talks utter f***ing dribble.
 
Protest against what?

Our big problem now is our owner. He has made a ton of mistakes and (understandably) doesn’t want to spunk anymore of his money up the wall. He wants out.

We are effectively in a stalemate situation until someone else buys the club.

So let's put pressure on Short to sell the club...
EDIT: it'll make no difference like. The people doing this are going ahead with it.

Of course not, but I'm yet to see a coherent argument for protest being an effective drive for change.

Now if you were proesting Coleman's continued tenure I could understand. For me he is a massive failure and his position is something our elusive hierarchy can address. The same could also be said of Bain in fact, and yes, I would encourage putting pressure on Short to oust him as well. Simply venting frustration over Short's continued ownership however seems like a pointless exercise to me.

So again, you have hung drawn and quartered me yet have no idea what we will do or say?
This wasn’t a phishing exercise it was a plain question to see if anyone else had the appetite to protest.

It would depend what the protest is and exactly who or what it is against, but instead of inviting supporters to join in you've come on here giving it the big 'un about your little protest with your marras.

No a big un at all, a blind man riding a bike can see why info can’t be dished out yet you continue to argue the point over it. Read the op again. Then sit down and stop crying like a tart

I'm not asking you to divulge info and neebody's crying over it. I just think it's laughable you've dreamt up some little plot and decided to come on here calling people 'limp wristed' for not doing the same.

I'll probably find it equally as laughable when you're being chased around the pitch like a set of tits.
