Suffer short term to gain a healthier long term future, we can’t sit and watch OUR club die and us fans argue with each other, we should come together as a fanbase to do the best for a good long term future for our great club. IN MY OPINION.

A game being interrupted will be a blessing, don’t have to watch Rudy’s crap signings and getting battered as he hired a crap manager.

How many 65+ year old supporters do we have? 🙂

What kind of legal protest would you attend?

After 12 games we’ve got our first point! Fought back from 2-0 down to draw 2-2 late on

Maybe, but I think Eustace was smart enough to know we were capable of doing something that stupid, and he was prepared to get out at the first sign Venky's were gonna Venky.

Is it because it might interrupt YOUR enjoyment Chaddy of YOUR Rovers... People need to see the bigger picture here,we are fighting for the Clubs existence

No idea

Owls would be a good one

I'm not the one calling for people to invade the pitch and get the game calling out which will likely piss alot of fans off by your actions and risk people getting a criminal record and people jobs at risk! https://commonslibrary.parliament.uk/research-briefings/cbp-10299/#:~:text=The new offence would be within the,would apply in England and Wales only.

The final say as in he has to pick from the list given or the players recommended to him by the scouting dept. And when they are cheap wage, low fee from relegated foreign second tier teams in the main the choice isn't really going to make a lot of difference. Oh one is 6' plus and the other is 5'9 but a bit quicker, that kind of thing.

Ha ha, my thoughts entirely.

If 2,000 people agreed then yes

You gonna be first on then during Millwall?

People chose to leave because members of the trust were stifling action. The comment about the people leaving not stepping forward is comical as around that time the people that left had been the most productive, most people in the group in it to say that they’re in it & to share gossip with other supporters.

Looking at Sunderland it makes me so jealous, they suffered for years in league one and look at them now, ambition and togetherness.

Any communications to the fan base will need to have wording in it to discourage division, infighting and arguing between supporters over whether they choose to boycott. There will also be some groups of supporters less likely to boycott who clearly shouldn't face derision or abuse for attending. I'm thinking of certain vulnerable groups like some disabled or very elderly supporters. For them, attending might be a very important part of their routine and we don't want to put these fans at risk from infighting or pressure. Edit - I'm not saying that anyone on here would behave badly to fans who disagree with their views, but unfortunately there are some idiots I've seen and heard over the years who can't behave.

Let’s get the call for a boycott moving then, it is way overdue.

I think everyone knows the fan base is still there without the need to actively call for people to turn out. I think too many instructions and caveats will distort the message. Let's call for just one boycott at one match, initially. There was 26-27k home fans at the East Lancashire derby last year, we took 5k to Preston this year, 6k to Sheff United for the FA Cup quarter final, 6k to Anfield about a decade ago, 5k to Doncaster on a midweek for promotion. 26k on against Oxford in L1. I've no doubt that if we had somehow made our way into the playoffs there would be 30k fans after a Wembley ticket. When there is a huge fixture even many of those who stay away are temporarily drawn back in with their fingers crossed that things will change (they won't under Venkys). I'm not worried about demonstrating we still have an active fanbase. There's plenty of evidence. I'm one of the few still attending and I'm briefly prepared to stop to send a message. We need to think about how we communicate/convince/plead with the other remaining attendees to make a stand. Just for one game.

Is there a reason that we can’t follow suit ?

Agree. The silence is deafening. Posturing and pontificating will do feck all. Metaphorically, hit the bastards where it hurts and maximise sensitivity and embarrassment.

Count me in, would need massive social media campaign and also for LT to communicate the campaign, albeit they will never endorse it.
