Aw bless, they dont like abuse. Which is a pity because they are a fucking clueless embarrassment. Marshalling a crew of 30 scrawny 14 year olds on Monday. It was almost like child exploitation. They may be able to strap an explosive on to one of them though and get them to sit with Fisher.

Don't joke about the suing for emotional distress, people did talk about that.

What is interesting is how the grammar and writing style seems to change quite often as well.

It was clear on day one that they're multiple people behind the account due to the grammar difference.

If you question them, you can always see certain people rush to defend them too (well I say defend, they don't need defending against a single question but they seem to think they need to)

That's the problem with all the protest/fan groups. In some people's eyes (I'm looking at you here, Tony) you're not allowed to question them about anything. If you do then you're apparently a SISU loyalist who needs to get off their arses and stand for parliament or something.

I don't see the crime though in people caring about the club in their own way?

Exactly.

If you say something helpful like "The cameras won't see the protest, why not go in the stand opposite" instead of "good idea" you get abuse from people who throw incorrect facts about and silly statements.

I'm still not entirely sure what we're supposed to be protesting about. Is it now just SISU out and hope there is someone else who will step in?

Why not encourage as many people as possible to the game, create a great atmosphere and then have a sit in or whatever after the game. Would look much better to any potential owner if there was a bigger, more passionate crowd.

I never set foot in Sixfields, and to those who went was their own choice. Not everyone berated the fans who attended, like you seem to think.

But it's off topic, we're talking about people mocking others who try to do something about SISU.

Off topic? you were the one who made the sweeping generalisation that could refer to anything.

The way I see it, if you don't like SISU, shouting "SISU OUT" and protesting is an end in itself. I'm not really interested in a "plan of action", it's about articulating unhappiness (or in my case, rage). Of course they will probably totally ignore any protests, but is that reason enough not to do it? From what I can see, most fans have just given up by now. We're numbed by what we've been through and apathy has taken root. Indeed, questions like yours really shouldn't need asking at all!

SISU-Out doesn't work for me. Their administration of the club has been nothing short of a disgrace. But, it's equally clear that the rot started well before they arrived. We should have entered administration and renegotiated the Ricoh contract at the time the arrived in town 7 years ago. When they didn't take this opportunity to effect a sea-change, everything thereafter has been failure built atop failure. But that trend began back in the 1990's.

For me, any campaign has to have two issues addressed; SISU Out - then who in? With what model? No-one is going to roll into town in a hurry given what's left. Secondly, acknowledgement that out current position isn't wholly of SISU's making. Yes, they've made a bad situation worse, but it's not all their doing.

A simple word that encapsulates 'where we are', compared to where we should be, like 'disgrace' or 'cheated' - maybe even 'truth' (as in let's have come honesty) would be a much better rallying cry. Much less divisive across the SISU-CC-ACL-Higgs-Wasps-whoever 'camps' too - as nobody can be really happy with where the club is, surely?!?

I don't think (many) are that bothered about people shouting SISU Out, and let's face it any general protest will end up with that anyway (think March,think hill). Thing is though, once you start doing 'press releases' and the like then you lay yourself open and, tbh, much of the criticism is as much a search/need/desire for a message more can get behind.

Take the hill at Cardiff. Still a (too?) small protest by numbers IMNSHO, and sure plenty of SISU OUT, but at least the message allowed some bloke to parade around with his LUCAS OUT sign too, so he was happy as Larry.

He's not really going to even turn up though if it's just SISU OUT, and if you'e not carefull 'formalising' it as they seem to be trying to do so risks it looking like a bunch of oddballs... and that can do more harm than good.

Nobody turns up for LAST's council protest? It gives a mandate in a way to sell to Wasps. Nobody votes against Lucas in the elections? Ditto. Few join in SISU OUT as a campaign theme? Sameproblem... it risks endorsing SISU IN.

Good news though, the 2 protest groups may join forces!

I think they are going to meet at lunchtime tomorrow to discuss it. (Don't let the dinner ladies clock you though fellas)
