Good grief man, protest by waving gloves!

Sorry but no!

Alongside other things....

All I am trying to say Pete there is there are varying degrees of age groups at Stanley it needs to be something simple that most people can join in with and feel comfortable with.

Also the more ideas and diversities the more chance of it helping keep the attention of the fans & the media to crank up the heat.

It is only a suggestion

Google Page Ranking I understand what you're saying and you're right. The Hispanic type regions protest by waving their hankies innit!

Thought he sits in the TV gantry ?

The pressure starts at the next game. The march is an opportunity for all like-mindedness to pull together and display the oneness that was so evident earlier in the season.

Getting a bit confusing now. Is the march the next home game or the Torquay game ?

Totally Agree! Are we now joining a panto Google Page Ranking?

Il put my simple idea across:

Meet up at the FRONT of the Town Hall (1pm)
Banners, Chants, Scarves, Even Gloves On Show
Walk from the front of the Town Hall up Blackburn Road (past argos) and then turn left to go along Abbey Street
Walk along abbey street and along towards the Whalley Road Lights
Walk up whalley road towards the crown ground
Walk towards the Carpark and carry on the protest and chanting etc in the carpark while the so called chairman arrives.
Once kick off is about to start then if you want to go and watch the boys then go do so ( preferable idea) if not then carry on the protest outside the ground.

Easy but effective idea.

Banners need to be created and us ultras can do so. HOWEVER would be good if some signs on material cardboard, paper or anything to be made by either accyweb users or supporters of stanley for the protest.

I will make some posters to go around town etc , on street lamps etc for the public to view and to also be handed out to passers by, either going through town towards the crown ground or to the people going through the turnstiles at the ground.

Another idea would be , if you go to the game, then after the game to carry on the protest for a little longer outside the offices.

I think one of the main things the protest shouldnt do is to effect the management duo and players.

For people who canne walk through the town etc and protest outside then i would suggest banners , signs etc for inside the ground or even a poster to hold up before the game?

I think we can all work together this week into putting a effective protest ahead!

Regarding the media. I have no contacts in this and im sure other people would be better at promoting it to them!! We need them on our side ! The more its broadcast the more effective the thing will be!
Only one rule. Beer afterwards

Neil, I do understand what you mean, my reply, granted rather ambiguously, was meant more tongue in cheek.

In hindsight, perhaps a cheeky smiley was required.

Pendle Red · 13-02-2011, 17:10

No worries Pete

FC
a couple of pointers

I would imagine you would need permission to put anything on street lamps etc.

you may also need to think what will be allowed in the Ground?

fc:stanley · 13-02-2011, 17:12

Course you would Google Page Ranking, its just cheeky posters on a street lamp etc. A few days before the protest. If they get taken off then so be it....

Yes, most things wont be allowed in the ground. 99% of the protest is outside of the ground...

The 1% would be some people holding up paper banners etc. Always see them at premiership grounds so i dont see the problem with a big piece of paper saying `DON OUT` on.?

Pendle Red · 13-02-2011, 17:23

Everything by the book is I would imagine is the way to go as the last thing needed with anything like this is adverse publicity.

I think it's the constant adverse publicity everybody is protesting about

lancsdave · 13-02-2011, 17:29

I reckon a local shop could donate 14 t-shirts with one letter on each t-shirt, DON & WHALLEY OUT for the front of the march, and the same 14 people sat together on the ground

Rob249 · 13-02-2011, 18:39

Just a suggestion, if the protest march could muster enough people, maybe if someone got in touch with sky sports and explained the whole saga which is going on at the club, they might consider filming it, and showing a little piece on ss news like they did with liverpool.It would also show to fans of other clubs that we want change, and arent prepared to put up with the same regime any longer, and that we are trying our best to change things for the better.

LongLostSon · 13-02-2011, 21:16

on the song front - - - don't I recall summat that contains "enough is enough is enough" ?
just an idea.

sparkie · 14-02-2011, 07:22

catchy bit starts at about 1min 33 secs and the lyrics seem to fit reasonably well, with a little tweaking we could have a winner here!!
