Apologies if already posted

1894 will hopefully be hosting a big screening event on the day with profits to the foodbank. A majority of fans still wish to boycott and won’t go. We are continuing to campaign for a 3pm kick off - and if possible move it to the Saturday or best case scenario... villa park for those who want to go. We recognise some people may wish to go / keep up their attendance record etc or may be thinking it’s a chance to take kods to wembley for once. 82% support means the boycott is likely to hold strong as people can see a collective move by City fans will have impact and compared to other games in the season it’s not a priority game - so we can do this and make a statement. No reason why the game should be at 4pm at Wembley. The FA / ITV still not reading the room

Sounds good. Though have you checked Villa Park is available and Villa are willing to host it? Not trying to sound negative at all, just you'd need to know that before putting it up as an option.

Holding a demo in front of the Colin Bell reception at 3pm.

TV,Press,hundreds of City fans.

St George's Park, FA HQ has been suggested.

Where do you think a public protest should be held ?

In public.
Disrupting somewhere or something. That gets on the news.
Standing outside an empty stadium waving a black flag won't make BBC 1 headlines.
The MEN may give it a few lines online.

St George's Park? On the day of the game? Who will be there from the FA to see it?

Not being negative, trying to be supportive. We all laughed at zebra pants - but that was some demo making headlines around the world

How about just stop oil type protest , we could sit on the M6 near Sandbach.

Or on Wembley way if we can feasi get back home .

*Disclaimer, as usual, not really thought this through.
