Lew-T Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 People saying it’s embarrassing are probably the ones fuming on the Holden thread... I don’t actually mind this. Better that way than ranting on here to complete strangers. Might be a tad premature mind! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not maybe it won't and neither will posting on here. Also threatening season ticket refunds won't do it either considering only about 30% capacity next season. It's pointless may as well get behind whoever gets taken on because ultimately it's not our decision, btw I'm not happy with the potential appointment but will support my team through gritted teeth regardless.

Bristol Rob Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 If you've dragged the banner from Banjo, you've probably made an evening of it. Wonder what they got from the KFC? Guess the discount thing was in play as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milo1111 Posted August 4, 2020 Report Share Posted August 4, 2020 Not hurting anyone or damaging property. The person/s who did it are entitled to make their feelings known. I agree with them. If people think Holden is good appointment they are free to make their own banners. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree with you and if things go wrong (and let’s hope they don’t) fingers and any anger must be pointed at the boardroom this time - not a manager trying to learn on the job. My one hope is that Dean has the sense to demand some really, really experienced support... he used to play under Allardyce at Bolton didn’t he? That would make things make a little more sense.

General Zod Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 I think this is a good way to protest. If I lived nearer I’d add to it. It’s a shame we can’t organise something like this but on a bigger scale (not king size sheets before anyone says it) as I'm sure The club would hate a spotlight shone on their potentially ridiculous decision in this way. With no fans allowed in the ground the chance to let them know how we feel is non existent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
citywest30 Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 Fair play to them. Not something I would do personally but good on them.Could do with more so that they know the feelings out there. They can't ignore banners on their way in to work but they can ignore a fan's forum so could be argued it will have more of an impact than all the opinions put on the Ashton/SL/JL/ Holden threads.

If they had the balls then they’d personally wait outside the ground and demand a face to face (socially distanced of course) with the objects of their ire...or sail to the Channel Islands to knock on Steve’s door. Instead they stick some bedsheets up. That’s the type you want in the trenches. No-one’s immune to criticism but I swear some on here won’t be satisfied until they’ve driven the Lansdowns out and have us run by some faceless entities- then they’d probably whine about that, too.

Bris Red Posted August 5, 2020 Report Share Posted August 5, 2020 Fair play to them. People more a less live their life’s via social media and forum platforms these days. How about actually stepping outside of your house and voicing and opinion.. like i said fair play to them for actually getting out into the big wide world and letting people know how they feel. The same belters on here that are slagging them off are probably the same people that would shuffle past the banners in real life with their heads down in complete silence!

Personally we need more of the same, pieceful protest outside or around the ground it will hit home instead of on social media.. Something needs to be said because the overall supporter experience has been lost at the club. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they want to make a statement , let them . There’s a minority on here that seem hell bent on protesting against what they perceive as an authoritarian regime, almost as though they *want* or even *need* something to push back against. Trouble is when you attack imagined slights you’ll end up with worse-and more than what you bargained for. In short-be careful what you wish for.
