What is this point then ? One fan thinks another is a scab or a bit of a c**t for having a different opinion on a football matter.
As old as the game.
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.
However, the though of standing shoulder to shoulder with cunts like this makes me question whether to bother or not.
It's the one where it makes the boycott look stupid and puts people off doing it.
That's why hopefully people organising it will stay on top of it all to distance themselves.

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 am sure there will be plenty at the protest who will be able to keep things in order.
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.
Why is the answer boycott a home game though? They already have my money so what's the difference if I go or don't? As I've paid, and I've travelled to the ricoh, I may aswell go and sit down on my seat and try and enjoy the game!

Just my view of course but I think having an organised protest inside for those who still want to attend the match and support the players is a great idea.I won't be boycotting home games personally. Fair play to those that do but this isn't Sixfields situation for me where I very much felt that a boycott was warranted. Happy to take part in any organised protest inside though. Already have my Simon Gilbert get your haircut flyer to wave tonight
I wouldn't use the phrase 'enjoy the game' more like 'suffer through it'!
The kid has made his account private... Holding up to the criticism well then.

That way, those people who feel a boycott and protest outside is the best approach can do their thing; the people who go to the game then also have a way to make their feelings known.
One protest might not work - hell, all of the planned actions may not work - but doing something is a helluva lot better than doing nothing at all.This is the first of a series of actions - there will be protests outside ground one week, inside ground another, visits to London, calls on boycott of merchandise (donate money to JHLF instead) etc etc. One single protest wont get get rid of these owners but a continuous series of things may, just may, have some effect - we live in hope.

The club is dying before our eyes, our owners have washed their hands of it and simply don't care whether it lives or dies - well we bloody care and are not prepared to sit back and at least try and save it.One protest might not work - hell, all of the planned actions may not work - but doing something is a helluva lot better than doing nothing at all.

Clint, rest safe in the knowledge, if you change tack and decide to go in, a similar percentageI'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.

Good point, Mr Green.The lad has put his name to what he said. Not hiding being a user name on a forum like some of the big men do on here.
Maybe the club can provide you with a safe place in the event a beastly fan calls you a name.
I made the tweet, and the subsequent explanation for why I used the term, and have deleted the tweet.
The reason I have deleted the tweet is that it undermines the collective action of fans and is needlessly divisive. If I had known it would cause such offence I would not have posted it. The more united we are, the more effective our protests will be.
So I reiterate my apologies on this forum too. I hope that fans support the protests as much as possible.
(I was also a scab - I went to Northampton once. So not only was I needlessly divisive, but also a hypocrite).

Defending calling people 'scabs' is just about the stupidest thing I've seen here in a very, very long time. I'm a peaceful man for the most part, but anyone who called me that might be on the end of something a bit more direct than an unpleasant name. I doubt I'd be the only one who felt that way - can you see where this is heading?
People have got every right to go to the game without being abused. It's embarassing, stupid and self-defeating to advocate, support or defend it happening. Splitting the fans in this way is just about the daftest thing I've ever heard of, and anyone who thinks it's acceptable is both an idiot and a menace. I do hope that's not too beastly for you.

You apologise and then right at the end you do it again. You weren't a scab going to Northampton.

Who is this Curtis guy anyway as I said in an earlier thread if you go in you go in if you don't you don't. No abuse either way what don't people get if this person is deliberately doung this to divide the fans even more then shout scab to me because I'm going in whether I stay in well?It's the one where it makes the boycott look stupid and puts people off doing it.

You shouldn't have put it in the first placeThank you, but I intended that to be a bit of levity at the end of a serious post to show I'm not a complete miserablist.
