I don’t think it’s as simple as that. Some of these people will be continuing their own personal boycott whilst others will just be missing another game. It all depends on why those people no longer attend.

I think a select few would glory in being ‘there ‘til the end’.

You never miss an opportunity 😁

Don’t make them support Rovers then 😁😁

I imagine even a four year old would choose the chance of a better future for the club over this season’s shirt.

I’m sure I remember Chaddy saying he wasn’t going to comment further on this thread 😁😁

Some people look for problems others look for solutions.

Now there’s an idea 😁😁

You ask people to contribute to the cause, you don’t expect everyone to do so.

But there was a difference between the sound and picture in the previous test too. On that occasion the third umpire gave it out anyway, this time he didn’t. As always with these things it’s the inconsistency which is frustrating.

Them making even more irrational decisions would not necessarily be a bad thing.

Smith given out in 2nd test, Carey given not out in this one 🤔

‘For those who still wish to attend, we understand but ask you to support our cause by not buying anything from the club shop/stadium’ This would give those who don’t want to boycott a way of showing they still want the Venkys gone.

My point being a boycott doesn’t equal no one attending. Rightly or wrongly, some people can’t be persuaded to ‘join in’ - I just don’t see the point in berating (for want of a better word) them for this. It’s certainly not going to change their mind.

Thanks, so some people still went but the desired result was still achieved. I think this is important to remember.

People need to spend less time on those who definitely won’t boycott and more time on the ones who are open to persuasion.

Did Sheffield Wednesday end up doing a boycott? If so, does anyone know the actual (not published) attendance figure for that match?

Boycotting and not wanting to attend are not the same thing.

Yep, nothing’s happened to justify it 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️

All of them?

The word begrudgingly springs to mind (amongst others!).

Light being shone on the reasons for the call to boycott are, I’d argue, more important than whether or not the boycott is deemed ‘successful’.
