No its now and we are a club disappearing into the mist !

So what's the 80's got to do with it and people being delicate?

Why compare the protests to hooliganism in the first place?

You don`t say.

2017 where we over react to everything from a few lads on a football pitch to 2 cms of snow. If you lobby the FL I am sure they could set up a few safe places for fans worried about about smoke. Leeds last game of the season 1996, now that was a pitch invasion and I recall nothing of the hysteria seen this week.

Modern football in particular the 2017 version of Coventry City is something I am falling out of love with quickly.

Who is Hattie Hopkins?

She is from the Headwear Apparel Thinkers Society. Also know as HATS for short.

Only four members at the moment though, Hattie Hopkins, Hattie Jacques, Sir Donald Tribly and Jack the Hat McVitie.

Mr. Beanie is on the waiting list.

I didn't you did

I'd struggle considering I wasn't at Birmingham City away in the 80's to be able to mention it.

The bit about comparing was more aimed at GG who did mention it first, then you did.

Surely its silly to even make any link to it?

How do we details of our plight to the Pennsylavia State University Pension Fund

Sisu is the nominal custodian, but Companies House records reveal a wide spread of shareholders, including the Pennsylvania State University Pension Fund
History to be made as Charlton Athletic and Coventry City fans ready to unite in protest against respective owners

Pestering the shareholders has got to be the most effective way to upset them. I can only think of bombarding them with emails and adverts in the University or local paper.

Yes I do recall running towards the Train Station with my silk scalf around my wrist

I can remember going to Birmingham City in 1973, a week after the Wolves quarter final where we took 15000 plus fans. At St Andrews we had about 800 to a 1000 fans and we got the shit kicked out of us all day from the time we arrived at New Street to the time we got back on the train. Not for the faint hearted. I think the modern vernacular is moody!

No one is Nick. I think we are pointing out the rather over reaction from 1 or 2 fans, mainly on social media.

I mentioned hooliganism ?

Football was very different then to what it is now, both on the pitch and off the pitch.

So why not take reactions on board? Especially when they are constructive.

Lots of things are different now, doesn't mean I can walk into a restaurant and start smoking and when people take issue say "yeah but you wouldn't have liked it in the 80's"

Lmfao so a few random lads going on the pitch with smoke fairs they randomly bought in a oil an hour before the game is going to reach financial press headlines, go back and think again

read the post I never said that they would just that we should

If people really want to target a protest action surely they should do something that actually targets Seppalla. She, unlike the oystens, is publicity shy. Negative protests against her through the media or by other means would seem an obvious route.

Doing something seems the buzz word of the day. It's like if you lost your car keys on holiday but looked for them in your house. It's doing something but achieving nothing.

Fans on pitches creates negative stereotypical images which re-enforces negative pre conceived views above all else I would guess.

Grendel has a point. Any protest we make must be contribute and be effective in achieving our aim of getting SISU to sell up at a reasonable price and leave ASAP.
Clearly, Seppalla dislikes publicity targeted at her. Currently, I don't see the our tactics influencing a change in behaviour from JS. She will be bothered when:
a] The profits for SISU are adversely affected.
b] She is associated with the abject failure of the investment in CCFC.

Therefore a suggest that we commission a number of photographers to file images of JS by camping outside her home and office. Then use the images in publicity campaign highlighting the poor performance of SISU's investment in CCFC that will lead to a potential loss of £70M being realised, when the club is eventually disposed of.
I think others have suggested commissioning an advertisement in the Financial Times, etc.

Which records?

 

[Badger]

I'm sorry, I don't know which records. That is from the linked article in The Telegraph
