They will have obligations to meet on minimum numbers on the critical safety things that will need to be maintained regardless. Catering and cleanup I can see but they’ve been cut back anyway. I was thinking how little mess was in the stadium post game actually when I was leaving yesterday. Perhaps we should all start bringing in litter to make him pay for cleanup with no revenue.

It’ll be all over social media. It’ll be all over here and other forums It’ll be all over the radio. Rob Staton will almost certainly interview someone live from the Trust on Radio Sheffield promoting it. I bet there will even be a BBC Sport article on it. Anyone who claims ignorance is being deliberately obtuse to avoid their collective responsibility. If you don’t agree and want to go I respect that. But claiming ignorance is a gigantic cop out.

I hope so. I’m a season ticket holder. I’ve never been a drinker at games except for the odd occasion. I’ve had a very easy protest so far. I’ll boycott this game and he’s not having an another renewal from me. Together we can force him out. It will be hard and will probably take longer than most will hope. Save your money folks. Spend it on your family. And when he’s gone you can come back knowing you did your part.

Message in full from email: Fellow Wednesdayites, The crisis at Sheffield Wednesday under Dejphon Chansiri’s ownership is not a short-term slump; it is a long-term issue. It has been years of decline, division, and disconnection from the community that has given this club life. In solidarity with fellow supporters who yesterday risked jobs and livelihoods to protest against Dejphon Chansiri, we today announce the next stage in our campaign to convince him to sell our club. We ask our members and wider fanbase not to purchase season tickets during any early-bird phase of sales, which we believe is likely to come earlier than ever before, possibly even during October. We’re asking everyone who can, including season ticket holders, to go a step further now and enact a full boycott of the home game against Middlesbrough, live on Sky on 22nd October. The Middlesbrough game is a prime opportunity to communicate to Chansiri via national media that we will not continue to fund our own decline. Your empty seat will speak louder than a thousand words. Instead, we ask supporters to watch the Middlesbrough game at your local pub in Sheffield, ensuring your hard-earned money stays in our community. Meanwhile, our defunding campaign has been a success, but the single biggest financial lifeline available to the Chansiri regime remains season ticket revenue. That cash flowing into the club could keep Chansiri around for months. It must be denied to him. Every pound spent in the ground helps to extend his campaign of destruction. Every penny saved to spend under a new owner brings our brighter future one small step closer. The retail boycott has already shown the strength of our collective action. Its impact has been real, it has been felt, and it can be seen in every shuttered kiosk and closed fanzone. Change will come when we all understand the power we hold together. Use it. Embrace it. And together we can build a better future for Sheffield Wednesday

I’d say most football fans have far, far more that unites us than divides us. You get the odd herbert or two but vast majority know that what’s happening here or did at Reading or Bury can happen to anyone.

Just in time for Englands tour of New Zealand. He’ll be delighted

Him and Brown have been rare positive in this whole miserable affair. All the youngsters have been a credit to themselves.

You’re correct. It’s not going to be 1st November and gone. But we have a long record of him being an utter moron. This is the guy who couldn’t even sell the stadium to himself without making a mess of it. When it comes down to it we’re dealing with a quarter-wit. It’ll take time but it will end eventually.

Should have gone to jump

Sacked in the morning was sung tonight. It’s not going well for Ange. Time to get Dyche on the phone.

Overall a poor contract. Not his fault. But not value for money (reportedly up to £40K which is a huge sum) First two years not great and often injured/unavailable Year 3 showed his class Year 4 good then left under a bit of a cloud.

Personally I think you’d be wasting your time. It’s like arguing with an hardcore antivaxer. Anyone who’s able to be persuaded isn’t buying anything. 99 out of 100 it’s just the contrarian types left. I roll my eyes and move on with my day. You’ll never convince everyone. It’s very successful despite the few with main character syndrome

And if you wear a not a penny more scarf and do the opposite then you’re asking for someone to question your choice.

Course you do. I certainly don’t condone pickets, abuse or anything like that but if you don’t support a boycott or don’t care then own your choice. Don’t expect people to not give an opinion

And a points deduction

The problem will be squad depth.

I turned on to that this morning as well. I was enjoying it until they started showing the ********.

Even if it’s a subconscious thing you’re going to think fizz it. I can’t be arsed with this. Elite sport is about the last 1%. Be off it and you lose. If you’re 5% off it you get absolutely done over.

I’d love a proper knock out. But I will give credit to where due for the new league format of the European competitions. I get that it’s only designed to have about 1000 games per phase but I do enjoy the random games it throws up. Going to Genk vs Malmo in January with a mate. Looking forward to it.

I still love all football. I’m the guy watching Scottish League Cup on Premier Sport. Can watch all the way from the TikaTaka down to blood and thunder variety. All of it is interesting in a different way to me. I do find the hysteria and how serious everything is now taken very annoying. Refs shows and all that nonsense. Analysing everything over and over is a bit tedious. VAR is the fault of every fan and cheered on by the media who screamed “something must be done” and it was and it’s worse for it. I love it but I can get over it after I stop watching or leave the ground in about 30 seconds. Winning or losing isn’t that important to me anymore. Although I’d like to win obviously losing won’t ruin my day or weekend like it might for some. That said the whole Chansiri problem is getting to me because that’s outside of football it’s staying with me outside the ground.

Not been many good days recently. Top stuff from that team. Well done lads. And Chrwissy losing is just a on top

That’s really good idea, actually. Ride well.

Sorry, have to disagree. You are of course correct that 90s prior it was a good stadium. One of the best in the country arguably. But it’s been left untouched for 30 years. And 30 years is a very long time. Football has moved on and so should have we done It’s indicative of the decline of the club. Forward thinking clubs (you can’t plan in football - this predates the current idiot in charge, of course) plan ahead and continuously improve. If you sit back you get left behind. I will concede though that the decay of the stadium coincides with our financial decline so I understand why it’s not been possible. Ultimately had we been well run we could have (probably) bounced back and been able to think about stadium improvements to keep up with the times. Coulda, shoulda, woulda of course. But the last 25 years have been failure on failure and that’s why we are where we are. Unfair maybe, but football is tough. And then reality that we are so far behind the times to where some might think we belong that it’s cringeworthy when it’s talked about. And that’s discounting the lunatic in charge at the moment.

I can’t see how it could possibly be allowed. Seats have been sold. You can’t move seats that have been sold except in exceptional circumstances. If he tried it would be an outright declaration of war. Way more than everything that has gone before. He would almost certainly fail but the carnage would be something to see And for that reason I’m all for him trying. And I say that as a North Stand season ticket holder. Try us Chansiri. It’s your club.
