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.

I have not seen this information so maybe thousands of other fans haven't. Post the information on here, let's make it punchy and disseminate widely and see if we can gain any traction. Has to be worth a go.

Honestly this doesn’t need half as much thinking as you lot think it does. It needs 50 local people willing to make a real nuisance of themselves at home games within the law and some funding.

I completely respect you for going to matches as you clearly enjoy it and you should keep going if it makes you happy. You’re not a mug for pursuing what you enjoy. You should also respect those who want to protest or boycott as it makes some people miserable to see how the club is shrinking. I think if I lived locally I would probably keep going too. Regardless of off field matters, I can’t help but support the team. Apathy has set in to a degree but I still have the love for the team that is quickly rekindled with a couple of wins. My worry is where the club will be in 5 or 10 years. I’ve managed to convince my 8 year old son to support the club (poor thing) but with the rate of decline currently I’m worried there won’t be much left to support in the future. Rovers have been important in my life and I want the same for my son. I think this is a legitimate concern and as such I will support any (legal) protests.

He’ll always be remembered for being part of that Jim Montgomery double save in the FA Cup Final.

Ah that's a shame, OK thanks

everyone has as opinion on protesting,let them choose their own way,venkys ar`nt selling the club so there is really nothing we can do to change the situation,though i suspect a mass pitch invasion leading to another abandonment would seriously rattle pasha and his puppet gestede,after the debacle of two waterlogged pitches it would certainly enhance media interest in whats going on

Are you sure?

Why are you in a protest thread when no form of protest would be supported by you?

And you done what? I'm a mug for wanting to back the team. Yes the team. We have games to play and win. You might not fecking shit the players and winning games then fine.

A spreadsheet with all this information was sent to media & representatives & to the club to ask if they were concerned, differences as high as 5,222, a 33% difference. Nobody, and I mean nobody cares
