I feel as passionately about this as a lot of people, but while the board have their heads in the sand and the playing and coaching staff can get away with their performances with apparent impunity, there doesn't seem to be any point raising our voices in protest.
We boo - nothing happens
We slow hand clap - nothing happens
We cheer the opposition - nothing happens
We get nilled at home - take a wild guess
There has to be something we can do?!
However the current options aren't great...
Petition - Not sure of its effectiveness, if any?
Sit in - Not effective without TV coverage
Signs - Again, nothing without TV coverage.
You say you boo'd, slow hand clapped and cheered the opposition, but this action again can only be done from inside the ground once you've paid your money, so why are they going to be bothered. They have your cash and bills/wages are being paid!!
The ONLY (yes, ONLY) effective way of demonstrating our discord is by voting with our feet and not turning up at all, and until this happens and they realise they can't cover player/staff wages due to poor gates, we won't get much of a response.
Hit them where it hurts and where they understand, the bank account!
