If you're a Cov fan that goes to Rochdale because "you support the team", you don't support the team and youre a scab #pusb

I'm not but would if I knew who the test was and I'm not on twitterThis is where the people organising it should be jumping on it to have a word.
were just missing a hill to stand on, and gary Hoffman cropping up now
I read it wrong to start with now I've read it again I agree with your reply
I feel like I should qualify my use of the word ‘scab’ to earlier as some Cov fans seem to be upset #pusb
I hope you don’t find this series of tweets too indulgent, I use the word scab not to cause offence but in a very specific way
For 15 years men and women have been prepared to sacrifice time and effort to establish vehicles for fan ownership/protest
Whether it be Save Our City, the Sky Blue Trust, NOPM etc. they have organised protests, marches, rallies, done the research
Really at this point we stand on the shoulders of giants when we consider the beginning of these organisations
But there is a breed of Coventry fan that is actually very sanctimonious, a holier than thou attitude of ‘supporting the team’
Their actions, of being dismissive about fan groups and unwillingness to engage in collective action, prolongs the situation
They are what Lenin called the ‘useful idiot’
The more they undermine collective action, the worse our situation becomes, and as such I hold them morally accountable
Imagine the press that would be created by a sub 1000 attendance at the Ricoh. The more turn up, the more it diminishes cause
You might not like the terminology, or you may think I am being unnecessarily provocative but it really is that serious
If you care about CCFC don’t go
There will be divisions while we have the current owners. Look at the Sixfields season.
Its all down to personal opinion if you wish to "support the team" that is the choice of the individual, if someone wants shout scab or whatever it goes with the territory, this is football not the WI.
A fan base will never be completely united, I know a Blackpool fan and they have a few who just wish to "support he lads" and even a handful who back Karl Oyston(owner). No different to this club.
Ah, so he didn't use "scab" to cause offence. That's OK then.
Wow. One person. Some of you sound like you want fan divisions to happen.
You get called worse at away grounds. In fact I have called a brummie in the past by which was a bit to much but I survived.
People are passionate, the clubs in the death throws and at last there seems to be momentum to organise protests of sorts.
Grow a pair of bollocks if a few words are that bad.
What a c-unit.Curtis @cjmclellan 16h16 hours ago

And many people confuse abuse with passion. They are two totally different things.

Then he should consider his use of language more carefully before tweeting it, like many people!Ah, so he didn't use "scab" to cause offence. That's OK then.

This guy tries attack the "very sanctimonious, a holier than though" City fans and hold them "morally responsible". Yet he is the one acting all sanctimonious and holier than though. He is the one undermining the protest, by trying to blame fans rather than the people the protest is aimed at.
I am all for these protests but it is up to individuals to decide whether they go in or stay out. The organisers accept it won't be a 100 per cent boycott and that would be okay. Then this idiot pops up.
Maybe the club can provide you with a safe place in the event a beastly fan calls you a name.
Quality of consideration often depends on how many pints you've had.Then he should consider his use of language more carefully before tweeting it, like many people!

Well said. It's easy now to say 'I WILL NOT ENTER THE RICOH' cuz there's nothing exciting in there for a pay on the day fan to go in for. Win 4 or 5 though and it gets more difficult.Lol, hilarious. Look at the state of the prick. I'll be going to the Rochdale game just as I'll be going to every home game for the rest of the season.
I've no doubt that this latest protest suggestion will turn out to be a damp squib anyway. They'll get bored after 5 minutes No qualms with what they're trying to achieve, I want rid of SISU as much as anybody but as I respect their views they should respect those who still decide to go inside the ground.
I wonder how many will have a change of heart if we win 3 or 4 on the bounce. Calling a fellow supporter a 'scab' is unbelievable.
Think you are missing the point again...
I've got a season ticket but I intend to support the boycott even though I don't think it's the best idea but it's the only act of defiance out there at the moment.Curtis @cjmclellan 16h16 hours ago

However, the though of standing shoulder to shoulder with cunts like this makes me question whether to bother or not.
