Golf balls, rubber chickens, there's lots we could do but we have an apathetic fanbase Quote

Given what I have posted over the months and years the question was already answered but I dont not believe in breaking the law to make your like someone is advocating on here. Its on those who choose to do so. How you get the owners get sell is a point no-one can give my answer. Attendances down over the years, drop to league 1, had offers of help and supports from people,had people inquiry and put bids in all rejected. We seem protests, walk out during games but nothing has changed. Anyway that's my final comments in this thread Fair enough Chaddy and thanks. I dont disagree. How on earth and why are they here.

We had the whole world talking about Kean and Venkys Out I bought my mate a Venkys Out T-Shirt for when he went volunteering in India. He was stopped constantly. How do we impact their core business and make them uncomfortable on their home turf. 1 Quote

A lot of fans of other clubs don't know they still own us, we need games being stopped because of our actions against them. 3 1 Quote

Groundhog Posted 11 hours ago Posted 11 hours ago (edited) Interesting interview with Lyle Taylor on Under the Cosh, skip forward to 50mins. Talking about their Belgian owner, to paraphrase: "It was easier to sell a League One club than it was to sell a Championship club, because he didn't to want to blow the wages up. He didn't want to pay big money. I'm (the owner) going to keep this on a League One budget." We can all but dream... Edited 11 hours ago by Groundhog 1 Quote

Backroom DE. Posted 10 hours ago Backroom Posted 10 hours ago 10 minutes ago, glen9mullan said: Well done. Professional, to the point and putting across the exact message that needs to be put across. Unfortunately I think those willing to boycott are basically already unofficially doing so, even if they aren't calling it boycotting, but it's right to put the call out anyway. There's a difference between valuing the club as a whole and only valuing being a supporter of a club. 5 Quote
Hasta Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago This depends how a “phased, strategic boycott” is going to work (as it’s worded on X). You will get a number of people prepared to miss one game. You will not get them prepared to miss several. You may get people to stop spending on the concourse for certain games etc… but not consistently. And the minute this appears to fails you almost give the club a mandate to carry on as is. Quote
J*B Posted 10 hours ago Posted 10 hours ago I can’t blame anyone for trying but I too fear anyone interested in taking part in a boycott to get rid of this lot is already doing so. 6 1 Quote

It feels like the owners of our club and the administrators they employ have no such sentiment for our historic club and its supporter base. 3 Quote
47er Posted 8 hours ago Posted 8 hours ago Any chance of that message (or shortened version) being placed in an Indian newspaper Glen? Plenty on here would contribute to cost I'd think. 3 Quote

ElTwis Posted 8 hours ago Posted 8 hours ago The letter encapsulates exactly my feelings and those of my family. I really hope its at least read in India as my suspicion is we are close to the end game here. Well done to all who have had involvement. 6 Quote
