BrummieFOX Posted 22 September 2022 Posted 22 September 2022 Not sure what would have more impact, banners and chanting or simply not bothering to show up. A half empty ground against Forest on Sky wouldn't look good. Obviously the latter much less likely to happen.

I just cannot believe how out of touch with football they seem to be, the club feels like its been run like a division of KP rather than a football club now. No PL football club is a football club anymore. They are all multi-national media rights companies. 1

You’d just know Sky would dub it out like BT did the Liverpool booing in the minutes silence

I hate those that give up on attending when things aren't going how they want and then soon come crawling back during the good times. 4

What near end of season game at home was it when most fans left the stadium long before the final whistle and the subsequent final lap of honour for the season from the players took place? It might have been the West Ham home defeat close to the end of Puel's first season here when we were completely mediocre in that game, I can't recall now but if in the unlikely event the stadium was like that from the off against Forest then that might send a message out - but I can't see that being the case!!

honeybradger Posted 22 September 2022 Posted 22 September 2022 Even though I dont want Rodgers in the long term, I expect us to have some short term success with him over the next few games. We have Forrest Bournemouth Crystal Palace Wolves and maybe Aston villa, which are vital games if we want to stay up. Protesting over these next few games will only harm us, let's get behind the side so we have the best chance possible to get results and stay up. If we dont get results in the next few games then let's make it toxic but for now we need to prioritise the team getting results rather than agendas.
mozartfox Posted 22 September 2022 Posted 22 September 2022 No protest required. If we lose against Forest, he will be gone. 1

Been sh*t for 18 months. I don't see why we should keep shtum for any longer. 2
SemperEadem Posted 22 September 2022 Posted 22 September 2022 Anything planned would likely just see the usual quips - ‘wannabe ultras’, ‘tinpot’, ‘cringe’.

Agreed, same people wanting UFS to bring banners, tifos are probably the same ones giving all the stick about the section and getting moved out of their seats

Image and respect is very important to any leader, but especially so in Thai culture. If they feel their authority/image is being questioned, it might concentrate the thinking. Any Brendan out chants could be easily disregarded as reactionary and a typical fickle football fan backlash to a recent run of results. As we know, it runs much, much deeper than that. We need to let them know that we're beyond bemused at their lack of action. Erm, not sure the phrase "Khun Top" will coming out sounding quite the way you intend it to if that takes off... 9

I agree but despite how shit he is as a manager we should be getting 6 points from Forrest and Bournemouth anyway, if we make it toxic it will greatly reduce our chances to get a vital 6 points. We need these wins more than we need Rodgers out imo. Sadly we wont get both at the same time.
Matt Posted 22 September 2022 Posted 22 September 2022 I hope everyone had a shit day at work on Monday 3rd October and comes to the game in a foul mood wanting to vent.

TheLittleBigMan Posted 22 September 2022 Posted 22 September 2022 Seriously? Protest? Fu*k me. How the mighty have fallen.

We had Brentford, Southampton and Brighton. 1 point gained. The standard of oppostion doesn't matter if the guy in charge is screwing it up. 2

This is a long running saga, you maybe missed the previous episodes? If we lose against Chelsea, he'll be gone. If we lose against Brighton, he'll be gone. If we lose against Villa, he'll be gone. If we lose against Spurs, he'll be gone. We're a club that defies the odds. Including sacking our manager it seems. Maybe Rudkin's got £100 on Steve Cooper being fired next?
Wymsey Posted 22 September 2022 Posted 22 September 2022 Might be unpopular, but the helicopter protest idea was very silly and distasteful - considering what happened 4 years ago next month.. 1
