More fans stood up and abused and sarcastically applauded the score board than there were tennis balls. Have you ever seen anything like that?

So if it isn't big headline news, what's the point? What is it actually going to achieve? What is the thinking behind it?

I don't have the magic formula to make them go tomorrow, do I need to have that to be able to question people throwing tennis balls on the pitch?

I know for a fact if I go and have a shit on the Ryton car park it won't make SISU go, it doesn't make me immune to people asking me what the point of that was.
Why don't you give it a try? You never know.....

I, for one would be there egging you on, as I'm sure many other posters on here would.

You spend your whole time on here spitting and snarling at anyone who challenges you.

For a season ticket holder you seem to offer very little comments on actual games.

Hang around in the sewer with Council Jack and Covman if you like. Hope you enjoy the company.

How ironic coming from you
You continue to repeatedly show yourself to be immature and a liar, as for hanging around in the sewer I leave that to you with your vile language.

Football sorry but I rarely see what I would class as football on the pitch at the moment

You said earlier you can't read peoples minds, so how do you know, obviously you were close to all sides of the stadium, you are becoming embarrassingly pathetic

Why would I need to read people's minds to see them stand up and do something?

How do you know what they were clapping were they all clapping the tennis ball throwers or were they clapping a cluster fuck in the box, or were they just clapping to back the lads.
TBH most people past block 17 are asleep most of the game don't get a murmur from them at all they, bang on about is supporting the team but do little for the atmosphere.

Well I was stood up applauding the ball throwers along with others with me yet you obviously decided the opposite again.
on , So did you spot those who's applauded in agreement or just those who were doing different

Yes, it happened after the goal and was quite clear how it was meant.

Erm, because they stood up and did it towards the scoreboard? Along with some choice words.

Is it one of those "it didn't happen" things like there was no whistle?

TBH was swearing and fustrated at letting in the goal never noticed.
But it would be out of character for anyone in blocks 19 and 20 to stand up unless they were leaving early.

Yet you know, that everyone was doing the same, mind reading were you, sorry to break the news to you but they were not and I sit opposite in the corporate area about 50/50 for and against. Didn't see any my side doing it as you portray on our side

cloughie he has a sixth sense . by the way although a lot of the balls come from up there quite a few came from other parts of the ground why don't those in the blocks more central just raise the volume just a little.

A bit like you it's not happening this club being ground down to near death at this very moment in time

So you are saying it didn't happen? Must be like the whistle that didn't happen too

You obviously can't read I said 'Yet you know, that everyone was doing the same, mind reading were you ,about 50/50 for and against'
Not to hard to understand 50 /50 for and against is it?

Did see and hear a few stand up and shout why the fuck did they not throw the balls when we were not defending a corner or words to that effect and sarcastically clapping block 22 me thinks

As people talk to each other in there seats and with others at half time etc , not unusual for most and concensus 50/50
Sorry if you go all alone which wouldn't surprise me, but then you seem to 'know' everyone was against it

I didn't say everybody was against it, I said a fair few people stood up and shouted abuse or sarcastically clapped that way.

Multiple other people have also mentioned that it happened, your half time poll must have missed them out.

......after over 2 days of this, Nick, you really need to let it go. It isn't going anywhere. There is no groundswell of opinion against protests and chances are tennis balls or not ,Millwall would still have scored from the corner.

So you bump it?

What did you think of the reaction?

There were quite a few in blocks 19 & 20 stood up after the goal, one group near me were clapping towards the fans in the corner shouting "well f***ing done" and it was most definitely ironic.

If some didn't see that, so be it, but it happened.

Point is, the more that people disrupt the match, the more fans it will lose to the cause. IMHO

From other fans yes
Well as I said before, there were a few dozen who reacted adversely to the ball throwing, absolutely no question. I think now is the time to think about the timing of throwing things on to the pitch/ stopping the game. It cannot be a coincidence that on 3 occasions now we have conceded after stoppages by the supporters. Whether or not those goals would have been conceded anyway is always a point to consider - our defence is absolutely shocking and that first Millwall goal cannot simply be put down to the supporters' actions. The players are almost to a man without mental fortitude and confidence is almost non existence . Knowing that, and assuming interruptions is adversely effecting the team, the supporters have to make an individual choice as whether the result of the match in hand is as important as the bigger picture (the owners).
I'm not against what's been happening, in fact I admire what fans are prepared to do. I might suggest that those who are intent at disrupting the game do so immediately we concede a goal - literally as we're picking the ball out of our sorry net (as happens weekly). The game is already dead, play begins in the middle of the pitch and no one can blame fans for the goal.(though they will )

Im aghast this still has legs...
IF the disruptions v millwall...v sheff utd...v Northampton..where play was stopped were responsible for lost goals and games then what of the other games we have lost this season? What does the data tell us?
Who is responsible for the abysmal season we all endure ...the fans or so called leadership of CCFC?
Divide and conquer is a classic tactic..used often throughout history. Its spin. Ball throwing..pitch invasions..?.these are effects...the causal factor lies elsewhere..cayman island based.

Why would they blame them off the protest happened after the goal?

That's the point, it's the timing of it all. No thought at all behind any of it.

If it's happened before, why even think about doing it again?

That's the point I've been trying to get across, but it's just made out I'm seeing things or people were clapping the players sarcastically.

Same as only a few people heard a whistle, strangely it's the same people who didn't hear it who didn't see things this week.
