The thing about protest is that it has to be aimed at the right target and have a possibility of some effect.

MJ and the playing/coaching staff must be feeling pretty low at the moment. So any form of vocal protest in or around the ground can only be a negative to them. Even if directed at JF.  And let’s face it, JF is fully aware of the fans feelings and quite clearly doesn’t care anyway.

As much as it pains me to say it. The only successful way I can see is by non attendance.
Losing cash is the only way to hit JF where it hurts.

Crazily enough, maybe a smaller crowd wouldn’t do the players any harm.  Not being able to hear the audible groans with a misplaced pass or hoof forward.  No booing at half/full time.
It’s not like they’re getting loads of encouragement (understandably by the way) at the moment anyway.

I’m currently recovering from an operation, but very nearly ignored Drs orders on Sat and went to the match. Fortunately I didn’t. A few tinnies and an afternoon with Mr Stelling was far cheaper and more enjoyable. If not careful, I could almost get used to it. !!!  I certainly won’t be paying £20 for non league sh1te.

Back on topic. The only way to make JF take any notice is to stay away in droves.
But he needs to be aware that unlike with Slade. It’s not the manager that we want to go.
It’s you John. And take your sycophants with you.


The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'
