Seems both on here and in the real world there's lots of chatter about 'doing something' before the end of the season but which seems to boil down to disrupting games one way or another.
I've never been persuaded that something like that would help - media coverage would be negative, there's a high risk of violence (however peaceful people might try to be, stewards and the police will intervene and it only takes one idiot to take a swing at a PC and that would be that), I can't see SP would like it and people could end up with banning orders, fines and even custodial sentences having damaged rather than helped the cause (those who think 'Div 3 game disrupted' would be headline news are not living in the real world).
But I do share the sense of wanting to do more so I started to look for campaign ideas. Irrespective of what you think of his politics, Peter Tatchell is undoubtedly very successful and certainly brave. He aims to be non-violent and act within the law but he goes for his targets fearlessly doing things like citizens arrests etc. I'm still incensed with Labovitch's behaviour at the SCG. So how - in a non violent and legal way - could an approach be taken that puts Labo in the limelight and makes things in relation to CCFC a bit more awkward for him?
