How do fans protest?

Some fans are more concerned with trips to New York and the like than getting down to Goodison Park and protesting sir.

So I take it you’ll back these protests rather than siding with the board and pushing slanderous allegations against the fans like you did last time?

Both sides ? You are so weird..

Protests
Online threats
Headlock gate

Anyone expecting the board to be engaging in dialogue with the fans at current time when they're not even welcome at GP are very naive imo.

Wrong again.

Which is why I included the alternative offence of Affray in my last post.

The “ Crown “ takes the place of the victim, in the case of any prosecution and the police prosecute on behalf of the Crown.

This is why the police commonly use the offence of affray in situations of crowd disorder - just like this allegedly was.

It’s maybe time to start reading some grown up stuff, rather than just looking at the pictures in your Big Norks Weekly.

How is it wrong ? lol

You can only be "found" guilty of assault if the person you've assaulted goes to the police...

Something likely went down imo - "headlock" is too random to make up when they could have just gone along with something more believable like social media death threats.

Thats not to say the board haven't then used that as an easy excuse to avoid the match on Saturday as they probably did do.

Not everything is black or white - always two sides to every story.

Who would we be protesting against at this point? The manager is already well on his way to getting sacked. The players know they're crap and the owner is already desperate to sell. The time for protest was years ago and guess who ruined that? Is wasn't any of the above. It was a sizable chunk of our own fans. The happy clappers hurled abuse at those of us who tired to make a difference during the Arsenal game and elsewhere. They shut the whole thing down and enabled the morons who've ruined the club. So lets not pretend that protesting would be anything then a token gesture to make them feel better for acting to late after actively fighting against this for years. Frankly they're as big a detriment to this club as anything/anyone.

Mate, why didn't you meet me at the villa ticket protest yesterday? I'd have brought you a beer.

Fatigue tends to set in during the 4th season of constant relegation battles. It happened with Sunderland, happened with Villa, fans just gave up in the end and stopped going. Grounds were half empty and both of them went down with about 20 points in the end. I wonder if we can muster up another season of fight to be honest.

You are in no position to talk about people fighting, you gave up 5 years ago, yet you pay £3 a month to keep crank central going, it’s literally nothing to do with you

Don't go.

Don't buy merchandise.

I honestly believe that the malaise, inertia, and general fatigue of EFC, has now infected the fan-base.

Most of us are just too weary to even bother.

Our travelling fans remain magnificent, and I expect if it kicks off it will be on them.

In a nutshell. Sad but true.

How did the Villa protest go mate?

Quite right, they got what they deserved, hope their happy...

Protests are now pointless. Ride out this crisis and if it looks like we are going to be safe keep Dyche until May. If safety is seriously threatened by end of 2024, get Moyes in for a hopeful new manager bounce. If we stay up, get Moyes out for 25/26, new owners, new manager. If all this fails having replaced Dyche, and we go down, new owner and new manager in the Championship and "enjoy" an exciting promotion battle in 25/26 with full houses in our new ground.

May I suggest taking something from the Spanish playbook...it's not physically or verbally confrontational and most of the football world understands it because of previous. It doesn't alienate fans and can't be used to put them in a bad light by the media. Whether it's white or doing our own colour (I'll leave that choice to you lot)...but, personally like the idea; we even may get a comment/backing from Don Carlo.



Throwing cushions is not the thing, COYB.

If we go down, we aren’t bouncing back quickly. Sheffield Wednesday, Sunderland, Leeds. We’ll be the new ‘one of them’.

You have to give time for protests to work. I remember walking down to Downing Street the night before the Milk Cup Final 40 years ago singing, 'Maggie Out'. Took a few more years like, but it worked.

that would be about as much use as a nun in a field of dildos…..there’s enough dildos at the club without giving them new toys
