They can't ban someone for not going to their seat for a few minutes mate
Why not try to affect change? At a time when all the different fan groups need to pull together and act as one it seems unreasonable that just because the protest isn’t exactly what you would have done that you won’t engage. Can I respectfully ask you to reconsider?Tough. I’m entitled to my opinion. I’ve been on enough protests in my lifetime to know well organised and ones that will be successful. Sorry @Damocles I respect your postings in the main but that one I have to disagree with. :-)
We do that already don't we?Bloody hell, I hope there's a slither more solidarity on Wednesday than on the forums or we might as well hand over our credit card details and tell them to take whatever they want.
Why do you care that other fans use the empty seat jibe? There’s soon going to be a lot more empty seats with the price rises. If you’re that bothered about empty seats you should be supporting this.Leaving a big yawning gap in the seats will simply give the 'empty seats, can't fill your ground' morons something to point at.
The CEO won't care because you've already handed over your money to get in.
I’ve been a protestor/rebel most of my adult life and have affected change in some instances and as my later post indicates unfortunately due to ill health I won’t be attending this match anyway but I wish everyone luck and will be with you in spirit. :-)Why not try to affect change?

It’s a fruitless task if fans don’t engage because they think it’s fruitless. The club have won already if that’s your attitude.Exactly!!
The bean counters don't give a fuck who is sat in that seat. Wether it's a far eastern tourist with his/her half n half scarf and iPad. Or a local supporter that lives over the road.
The only time they will realise is IF (and I don't see it happening anytime soon) our success falls off the scale.
We are a huge global brand and lots of football fans want to be associated with us.
Fair play to the fans trying to get their point across, but personally I think it's a fruitless task.
I think there will be plenty of room on the concourse as if you look on the planner the game is only half full anyway. How did it get to this?Where exactly are folks supposed to go for these nine minutes? With the game being midweek there’s always lots of late arrivals, so they will then arrive and possibly not get into the ground because the concourses could be full of protesters? Sounds like this could get dangerous and hasn’t been properly thought through.
Ok that’s fair enough but that’s not what you said in your previous posts. Hopefully you’ll get involved in future action and I applaud you renouncing your supporters club membership. I’m only staying because when the opportunity to kick out Kevin Parker arises I’ll be doing everything I can to make it happen.I’ve been a protestor/rebel most of my adult life and have affected change in some instances and as my later post indicates unfortunately due to ill health I won’t be attending this match anyway but I wish everyone luck and will be with you in spirit. :-)
As I’ve been a member since 2009 I don’t think approximately 25 posts per week is bad or excessive.You have 21 thousand posts on here, that's a lie.
As is mine. You are free to have an opinion and I am free to say your opinion is wrong then try to explain why. That's not "bullying" mate. And the posts thing was just a joke obviouslyAs I’ve been a member since 2009 I don’t think approximately 25 posts per week is bad or excessive.
Also, at present, as I’m not able to live the outdoor active life I once did I find this forum, amongst others, a distraction from the pain. :-) :-)
I’ve dealt with bullies all my life @Damocles but I was under the impression that I was posting on an open forum where my opinion is just as valid. :-)
I’m all for constructive protests but having been caught up in crushes at several games it’s not something I would want to again.I think there will be plenty of room on the concourse as if you look on the planner the game is only half full anyway. How did it get to this?
Because thats less visual. The point is to see empty seats. Because you know ticketing.Sorry don’t want to miss the kick-off.
Why don’t we stand up and turn our backs to the pitch on 9 minutes?
*rofl* thank you, thank you @mexico1970 you have given me the best laugh today. I was beginning to feel bullied and intimidated and you have restored my faith in BlueMooners. :-) ;-)Would you protest if they took John Stones hostage and made him wear a red shirt against his will?

In reply to your question. I would sort out an army to send to protest, I think I know the people I could count on to help me out. Or I might borrow my brother’s mobility scooter to defend John Boy. :-)
