Guest tomparfitt17 Posted September 18, 2011 Posted September 18, 2011 I think it's time to save our club. At this rate we are going to end up in League 1. The club needs a new start, with a fresh NEW manager, fresh NEW staff and fresh NEW ideas. MILLEN NEEDS TO GO AND IF THE FANS START TO KICK UP THEN CHANGE MIGHT COME. If we don't do something quick, we are going to be in BIG, BIG TROUBLE.
bs3 Posted September 18, 2011 Posted September 18, 2011 Try not going . An empty stadium will have more effect.
Guest tomparfitt17 Posted September 18, 2011 Posted September 18, 2011 not going will work yes, but when I pay how much for my season card, I ain't flushing it down the drain over one man and his pack of circus performing monkeys. A protest might make the media notice, which might make the board listen.

I cannot think of any more effective means of protest than empty seats.

chinapig Posted September 18, 2011 Posted September 18, 2011 Protests in grounds is rare these days, the fashion is now for marches it seems. Whether that achieves anything is debatable. Did the protest against Kean inspire their win against Arsenal or was it coincidence and more down to Arsenal's inability to defend set pieces (sound familiar?)? Did those fans end up with egg on their face or can they claim some credit? For the record I think a protest is likely to be counter productive and to fizzle out (the one abiding feature of football in the area being a kind of shoulder shrugging apathy). It might be instructive in showing us if the players are behind Keith I suppose but I am still not in favour. One way or another things will sort themselves out, whether under Keith or not, regardless of what we do. And do clubs give a toss what fans think anyway? Interesting view from David James btw: http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/blog/2011/jan/08/football-managers-sacked-david-james

Well you spent five years trying to get our best manager in two decades the sack. But you were in the minority. As you are also now, as most realise that under Millen we are relegation fodder.

As you are also now, as most realise that under Millen we are relegation fodder. What he said. How anyone can defend millen is frightening. If anyone is gas its them. The latest defence seems to be that there isn't anyone about better which is a joke and not true.

Not the fans, no matter how pissed off we get with the shambles at the Gate. As for Jamo's article, I would be very intrigued to know Millens standing in the dressing room. specially as this is his second losing streak in two seasons, and the same baffling substitutions, same lack of tactics.. This may also decide millens fate. Hes now had about 50 games in charge, and we are no further forward, indeed we have regressed in an awful lot of ways..

Redcliffe 78 Posted September 18, 2011 Posted September 18, 2011 Chinapig your right clubs don't give a toss what fans think as long as they keeping on coming. When they don't come that's when they take notice. Lansdown senior knows the majority of fans are shouting for a change, only people who back Millen know in my op ion are not thinking for the future of the club.
Lita For Congo Posted September 18, 2011 Posted September 18, 2011 Says you that tried to create division when gj was here He would also smell gas he drives them about in his minibus! I don't think now is the time to be protesting. We have 2 home games on the spin and we will be in a position after those games to see what action, we as supporters of this football club, can take. I know millens not the answer and he never will be but I think it would be detrimental to results. At the end of the day we all want that.
Andy082005 Posted September 18, 2011 Posted September 18, 2011 To be fair, anything other then a home win next week will see the Millen out chants start, believe me
Red Robin Posted September 18, 2011 Posted September 18, 2011 Interesting,without naming his current manager,I think he is saying something in that script!

Red Robin Posted September 18, 2011 Posted September 18, 2011 To be fair, anything other then a home win next week will see the Millen out chants start, believe me ANDY fans were shouting Millen out,last home game,hull is a must win,otherwise I reckon the majority will be singing Millen out. Watching from the dolman the ateyo were giving him hell,yet he was clapping them on the way down the tunnel. Saturday will be a pressure cooker for him.
Markman Posted September 18, 2011 Posted September 18, 2011 **** it, I'm going to do a protest against Tom Parfitt and his protest. I'm going to call it the 'Tom Parfitt - protest against the protest, protest'. might I suggest the Protest (against) Moaning Tom - or PMT for short?

Robbored Posted September 18, 2011 Posted September 18, 2011 Says you that tried to create division when gj was here Wrong. Just expressing my opinion of the time. Not the same as trying to cause a protest
Guest bcfc_Jamie Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 You could say let's not go and we have about 8,000 turn up let's say but in all fairness we've already paid for our ST so sorry but I'm going as I've spent my well earned money to watch some tripe.
The Batman Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9fEjJ4Ecy9Q click the link. change city hall to ashton gate. Starring Colin Sexton as the Mayor. Change randy's line to "what are we gonna do Colin, we have to stop Keith Millen from ruining our club"
Red Knowle Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 not going will work yes, but when I pay how much for my season card, I ain't flushing it down the drain over one man and his pack of circus performing monkeys. A protest might make the media notice, which might make the board listen. Stay out in the park for a half. Not going in is a protest.
westonred Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Why not walk out at half time that way the board will see that us supporters are unhappy. Not turning up at all wont prove a thing 'Sextoy and co' will just think that the fans didnt turn up because they are watching the rugby or at a friends wedding or attending the sales at John Lewis they will believe any lame excuse apart from the truth
Rocky Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Programmes on the pitch was noticed...unless you already have a pending conviction/history, you may want to consider this first!!
spudski Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 I've seen fans turn up at matches abroad and stand facing the other way, showing their backs to the pitch in protest. They also didn't applaud or cheer when their team scored.
Nogbad the Bad Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 OP is actually wanting some sort of protest / riot perhaps? at the 'next' home match which he doesn't seem to know who the opposition is. Yet he is allowed to spout such rubbish without the mods feeling they should intervene? Clearly he is a pillock, and wasn't someone jailed recently for asking for a riot? So please mods to save this forum descending further down the slippery slope, kick the idiot into touch along with his silly rant. Don't be bloody ridiculous, he hasn't asked for a riot. Tom, a large percentage of fans are fed up and the chants for change will start naturally if we have yet another poor home performance.

That might mean a sit in for all you know. Stop being over dramatic.
spudski Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Apparantly it's not ok to 'protest' at the ground about how our team is being run, but it's ok to have a protest march on the council house. Double standards.
Riaz Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 A protest is a bit extreme. It is, afterall, about a game of football. When you pay your money, especially as a bristol city fan, you should half expect mediocrity - its the joys of supporting a proper club like ours... A "MILLEN OUT" chant is all that is needed IMO - But not, of course from the first minute.
Guest tomparfitt17 Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 I would like to thank some of the people who are defending me on here. I'm not suggesting a riot for christ sake. Protest and Riot are completley different. I'm talking along the lines of something like the Steve Kean (or how ever you spell his name) protest by fans at Blackburn at the weekend against Arsenal. A few fans speaking their minds over this situation as if we carry on like this our team are going to go down the drain. Something like that, that might make Millen think that the fans are becoming restless so it's about time I give my team a kick up the ass to save my job, or perhaps I should do the right thing and walk away. For those people who are slagging me off, I'm only speaking on behalf of majority of the fans who are fed up with these performances at the moment and they all want change. I'm a passionate supporter of the club, I sing, I cheer my team on through thick and thin and I don't give up on them no matter how bad. But when were having performances like this and watching out club go down the drain, someone needs to stand up on behalf of the fan's that are too scared to say anything on here, because every time they say something on here they always have their heads bit off by people slagging them off because they sit at the football on a Saturday and do nothing at all. No singing, no passion, no support. Yet those people are the one's that think they are always right and are the "true" supporters of the club. If you are a "true" supporter then you would support this and save your team from going down the drain and potentially becoming the new Plymouth Argyle. RANT OVER :S

It is not the behaviour of a true fan and I hope that no one who cares for this club will support this irresponsible and dangerous course of action. If change is needed, the club will make it; in the meantime, you should trust the Board to know what they are doing. The club is not on the verge of 'going down the drain', but you might start pushing it in that direction if you do what you are proposing. Shame on you.
Guest Fireman Sam Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 NO HE HAS HAD HIS CHANCE If the game goes bad again, and it will Then it is time for the season ticket holders to show their discuse KM will not resign It is time the club sacked him Give a coaching role again That is what he is

Are you really speaking on behalf of the majority of fans? Who elected you as spokesman for the fans? I certainly didn't and neither did any other City fan I spoken with. Calling for a protest less than 10 games into the season is ridiculous. I don't how you can call yourself a City fans when you want to damage the club you supposedly support by calling for such action. Its pathetic and you should be ashamed of yourself.

Secondly, and I find myself doing this constantly, but your bottom two paragraphs as ever, are very hypocritical when it comes passing cmoment on behaviour that is pathetic and damaging to the club Critising a manager is part and parcel of being a football fan and I have no issue with it even if I don't agree. Its not damaging to the club particularly when the critical voices are in the minority. Calling for a protest is entirely a different and potentially damaging matter which is a point you 'accidentally' overlook in your persistent pops at my previous critism of Johnson which is not exactly relevant now is it? Why not try to post something constructive instead of your predictable and boring cheap shots.
Andy082005 Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Actually I have been on here for some time and he does have a better view of things but of course trying to put that point over to a rabble of dullards who rather snipe than bring something useful to the table is rather frustrating I imagine. Some of you are completely witless and immature, to throw out the baby with the bathwater at this stage of the season is lunacy and those that support such an action clearly have no grasp on reality let alone on how this club goes about things. You must have joined after his one man crusade to get rid of our previous manager after 3 months in charge....and continue on that crusade regardless of promotion to the Chamionship and then reaching the Championship play off final? Surely this is just as "disgraceful"....... Each to their own I guess............

Whilst I dont agree with a protest - I dont see how this early stage has any revelance - because he is making the same mistakes, over and over. It may be a new season - but its same old, same old. Only thing is, its getting worse. His signings (which were good to begin with) arent bailing him out anymore....

Avalanche Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 Turning out backs to the pitch and/or only attending the second half on Saturday could speak very loudly.
Redcliffe 78 Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 I feel it is time for Millen to go, but if Maynards penalty went in we would be 13th in the league with two home games coming up things would look a lot better, i will always respect what Millen has done for this club as a player Etc but i feel with his strange substitutions and his comments in the press he is not the person to move us forward.
Riaz Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 I too love this club, and again my weekend was a ruin, and I agree things have to improve, but the season is new we need to give him more time, if after say 15 matches there is no improvement well yes. But what really is another 8 matches going to do, apart from totally plunge us deeper into trouble? Skuse and Elliott have played together tons of times in the last 3 years and yet still the manager cannot see that these two cannot retain possesion. 3 years!!! Did'nt replace caulker and was shocked when we got thrashed again at the beginning of the season - despite the the same thing happening on several occasions the previous season. Why was he shocked - some of us expected it?! He's always getting the basics wrong. why will any of that change in 8 games? All it will do is give the manager time to get another winger or striker in..... I say get a manager in, who will get the most from this set of players and will at least spot our problems and attempt to resolve them
Roadrunner Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 I am sorry to say that is the best way to make your point. If they see the crowds down then the directors will have to take note. It goes against the grain as we all want to support our club. But sometimes in life you have to be cruel to be kind. Try not going . An empty stadium will have more effect.
westonred Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 The crowds are already down 4,967 fans on last years 1st three home matches. How much longer are the board going to wait until they act
Andy082005 Posted September 19, 2011 Posted September 19, 2011 I was a GJ supporter, however that aside, the fact that RR does speak sense in most things but the rest on here seem to be deaf and blind to what we really need to do as a club to improve. I was born and grew up in Bristol so I am aware of the huge cynical attitude of Bristolians, but this is way OTT and does nothing to improve the situation, on or off the pitch. If we win the next two then the picture will be different, and all this will be forgotten until the next defeat I suppose, life/ football does not guarantee success, and behaving like kids in a sweet shop and throwing a tantrum because we can have it all is well..... You talk like we are going through a small bad patch and that we are over reacting. This had been going on for 13 months under Millen, and a previous 2 years before that with Millen as assistant manager. Nothing has changed, and nothing looks like changing.....at what point should we start thinking "you know what....this just isnt going to work?" Look at the job Moybray is doing at Boro.....in far less time, bare in mind they have lost a couple of decent players to. We have a decent squad here....no brilliant, but decent. Millen, regardless of what people say, has had money to spend and has spent it. His players cant make the team, some the bench!! When do we start thinking enough is enough? Protest...no way, Millen out....absolutely, should have been gone ages ago
