San Clemente Owl

I am over from the States and this is one of the 4/5 games a season that I can get to. Was hoping to go to this one but I for one will take a stand and not attend this game, might not get another chance to attend a game this season but we have to force him out anyway we can.

RIP Milan.

OK, so the boycott is working. If his goal is to run the club into the ground then fine, that will bring this all to a head quicker if he does that.

Where do you think the money the club gets comes from? Once revenue has been spent it all comes out of his personal pocket, so if we can restrict revenue then he will need to reach into his pocket more. The money to pay players and staff comes from him ultimately and he isn't paying it on time.

I've seen a number of people state that is what happened. Wasn't at the game, so can anyone who was confirm whether they were allowed to go back to the stands or were they arrested/ejected??

Sorry, thought you were referring to the opposition fans.

Not sure there is much we can do about that. I am sure the trust are speaking to other clubs fan groups but while ever we sell out the away end, so will they plus I am not sure its fair to ask them not to support their team to help ours.

Correct, this won't be quick. It took Reading a few seasons to get rid and even then it was on a technicality due to the owner being convicted of a crime in China.

Watching this over here in the US, the commentator commented on the applause from both the home and away fans.

I personally wouldn't go on the pitch for that reason, all for the protests but the risk of being arrested would rule me out unfortunately.

To be fair, their protests started slowly and gradually built, ours have done the same and will continue to grow.

It will work and we have to be prepared to do it for as long as it takes. Starving him of revenue will make the club unsustainable eventually, TV money will virtually disappear if we go down, squad cannot be added to due to embargoes and if we boycott STs then his "investment" will be worthless sooner or later. But its going to be tough!!!!

That one is maybe too spicy!!! We could boycott this game and see if we could get the Blunts to boycott it as well, would they do it?

On its own maybe not, but added to no spending in the ground or shop and very few POTD, it all adds up.

And if you really want to propel the coverage even higher, then the game on 23rd November agains the team bottom of the division is the game to do it. Won't happen of course but that sort of statement would be huge!!

Every steward there is costing Chansiri money!!!

Standard procedure for the TV companies.

I accidentally threw away my 1966 FA Cup final program!!

Agree with this, he was to them what Waddle was to us!! I would certainly consider Brian Dean and Keith Edwards from them and more controversially Billy Sharp.

Sabella was a big name, especially in the Third division but he hardly pulled up any trees for them. I wouldn't include him in a Sheffield starting 11, Curran from the same era would be well ahead of him.

Well Boro are beating the Baggies 2-0 currently, so its got that one wrong which means there is hope for us!!!

Back in the early 80s I used to walk into town regularly. The longest one from memory though was Boxing Day 1979 when due to there being no buses I walked to the game from Hunter's Bar and back again afterwards!! Had a spring in my step on the way back!!

I don't know for sure but I would imagine match ball sponsors probably also got their name on a game prior to the season starting, so again the money is in his pockets already.

Most sponsors sign a season long contract and will likely have paid before the season started so it won't achieve anything anyway. Let's not start berating sponsors who have possibly supported the club financially for years!! Contracts cannot be broken, so lets just live with it.

That was my first season of going to games with my Dad. I had nothing to compare it to but it was still bad, I was just happy to be going to football games. So that season we won 5 and drew 11 games, in today's money that would be 26 points, not sure I can see us getting there to be honest.
