To everyone that went on the pitch

I must have been at a different game because all around me in the other side of the North stand there was significant applause and encouragement of those on the pitch.

 

I thought they got the protest just about bang on.

My brother in law is an avid Coventry City fan & he was at the game & said that he thought that our protest was excellent & has full sympathy for our cause, having endured troubled times with his own club, in the past.

He also tried to buy me a black & gold scarf upon leaving the ground, but they had all sold out!

Won't be easy, but we have to keep our protests going, until something changes.

Full credit to all the unpaid staff & players & to those who were so brave in going onto the pitch on Saturday.

You are ALL heroes to me

Running on the pitch with a Chansiri Out flag won't hit the headlines.

Just needs one person with a 'I support Palestine Action' banner and you're guaranteed to get dozens of police rushing in. Maybe even a police helicopter landing on the pitch.  Loads of free publicity.

I appreciated all the efforts from the fans who went on the pitch, it proves is not just hold air. Things are starting to intensify and make it harder  DC to cling on. NOBODY buy tickets regardless of price!

The players are really trying, but the football they are providing is poor, Defeat after defeat will follow. The prices For tickets are high but the price of keep  buying them is even higher, be warned.

I've put on another thread, I was the second one on from the North Stand and first to the centre circle. I said to Barry Bannan take the players off ( to try to get the game abandoned) he said they just wanted to play the game and Liam Palmer said the same. My mate who ran on first was ejected along with a few others ,we were just ushered back into the North Stand. I will never forget the support from the North Stand , it was quite emotional as we had expected to get boos from most fans, so really grateful for that.Just hope it makes a difference in the right way. It has brought attention to our cause and thanks to the Trust for all their incerdible work.

That went well.

The players are obviously going to say that they just want to play the game, to protect their own backs. The minute they start supporting the protests will be the minute they start to get hefty legal bills.

I expect that privately they are pleased with the Trust's work and all want the same thing, Chansiri Out.

It could have gone better with more fans on the pitch although a disruption was probably better that an abandonment for fear of losing support.

big difference in keeping your gob shut and Bannan running over to tell fans to get off the pitch imo.

I was at the game, seen the videos...could you point me out where Bannan tells the fans to get off the pitch?

He runs across waving his arms and your own fans on here say he said get off the pitch.  If im not mistaken, the fan who Bannan spoke to posted on here he was the fan that Bannan spoke to and that indeed was what he said.

Or, doing what the club captain and the vice captain should be seen to be doing

fair enough mate....missed that...but to me he didn't look particularly bothered

Is anyone surprised the club haven't made some sort of statement?

Nobody has been paid, so nobody can be ar5ed.

Barry Bannan and Liam Palmer said to the first 2 fans, 'we just want to play'  that was it.
