The rift is deepening I think. Before the game today I overheard a couple of people (two women) who were abused in the pub at PV last week because they mentioned they were season ticket holders. That ain't right.
I'm always up for a drink, but if our beer-sozzled debate from the other night is anything to go by, it would be a long day
There is, but the landlords are wankers so no one will be interested.
Remember the football league show when they were more focused on the 2 fans arguing and the fella having a go at the one going into the ground?
Some admit they wouldn't, others say they don't watch the game.
Funny though as some hillgoers have a go at people causing divides with fans yet allow fools like today to associate.

It would be easier to get points across face to face.
Shame that a few have ruined it.
Today wasn't great on the hill.
No singing, no drum or vuvuzela.
To add to that, a few numpties making us all look like scum.
Apologies to any who received abuse. The reason no one stepped in was as if we had said something it would have stirred things up on the hill.
If there was something both sets of fans could focus on then it might achieve something.
So how were the majority on the hill to know what was going to happen at the end of the game? Are they mindreaders? The hill is a public area anybody can stand there
Sounds good to me. I normally make a game last a weekend. I leave my house about 4am to get to Coventry in time to get on the coach. Then have a laugh with the natives when we get there. Always a good day. It would be easier to get points across face to face. I am not normally argumentative. It is so different trying to get points across on the net......then I forget what I am going on about
It's not your fault, not your problem either. We really need to stop grouping people together in split levels though, as rather than Sixfields goers, hill goers, couch sitters... we're all city fans.
With the occasional mindless idiot tagging along.
I think the time has come for a mass protest that everyone can get behind - something like the march in the summer which brought everyone together.
No idea what that could be though.
As an aside, I saw a couple of people with red and green bar scarves today. I like that idea, although I know some people are dismissive of it. I would happily buy a job lot and shift them online at cost if I thought people would buy them.
What about the people organising the gathering? Was anything said to the people causing trouble? Fair play if something was said to them to tell them to wind their necks in.
You really have the wrong impression of the people who go on the hill Nick nobody organises it people just go why does everything need to be organised all the time in other words go if you want dont go if you dont want same as going into the ground.
If it happens, I will happily buy you a beer.
Totally agree, I think all of the groups whether it be KCIC, NOPM, The Trust and whoever should come out and try to unite the fans rather than split them. Get something that everybody can agree on and get behind and bring the fans together.
Do some market research, see what people are willing to get behind.
I agree with most of your comments but how can the younger fans see it when most of them were just getting home from playing for their own sunday teams.SISU can be blamed for a lot, but people reacting to each other like that is not something they can be blamed for. They don't make people behave like morons - people are responsible for their own actions and should be bigger than this. Glamourise it by saying it's passion if you want, but I'm calling it what it is, fascist, moronic and a shit example to set to the next generation. These people are wrecking the club MORE than SISU.
If you do anything worthwhile and effective then you always alienate some people.
80% of regular attendees at the Ricoh last year appear to support nopm in some form. That's about as united as something like this will be.

I reckon most of them aren't even NOPM, they aren't doing it to starve SISU they just don't want to go.
We need to find something to get ALL fans involved.

Part of that's correct.
80% support NOPM.
40% of them probably don't care anymore.
I think if we get a repeat of todays antics at the sheff utd game, this could put any campaign in crisis. To have fights fighting each other on the tele will be tragic. I just hope the idiots who were starting this will just watch the game in the pub.
how about opening up the Ricoh,
have the game put out on radio over the P.A.

here's an idea for a protest.
at the Sheffield game there looks likely to be a big presence on the hill and possibly an equal presence in sixfields. at half time why don't the fans on the hill come down to the main entrance and the fans in sixfields come out to the main entrance, hand shakes and hugs all round then sing a few songs together, just before the 2nd half kicks back off the fans from sixfields go back in and the fans from the hill go back to the hill.
with the TV camera's there it should get some coverage, it shows we are in it together and we will not be divided. sticks 2 fingers up to everyone FL, Shitsu, ACL etc.
