A Different Type of Protest - A Bigger Impact
|
Some nasty scenes yesterday but all too predictable and whilst I don’t condone it all I can see the impact it has had as it is a media feeding frenzy topic now.
It shines a light on the board but with Karen Brady being a media darling the narrative will always be one of thug West Ham fans doing what they always do. I also don’t believe the board care what we think. They have their made up endless waiting list for season tickets and the majority of their money comes from the TV companies.
Monday 16th April - 8pm - Stoke City - live on the TV
I will not be taking my seat until 6mins after the whistle blows. If everyone did the same an entirely empty stadium live on the telly for kick off for a premier league game would show the TV companies, the board and the media what a soulless bowl this stadium really is.
Peaceful, no pitch invasions and highly impactful. WHO’s in?

A sit in at the end of a televised game would make a scene for them, especially if everyone moves round to one stand.
If not, you don't need permission to March inside the ground - everyone form up outside the club shop. No paperwork, no permission, no bullshit membership fees.
Social media has already proven you can drum up support and then rely on word of mouth without needing stickers, badges or lumps of wood with badges burned onto them.
You've already paid your ticket fee - you don't need any extra costs to hang about and make a bit of noise.
I remember being dragged into the protest outside the main entrance during the Brown Out era and that attracted a fair crowd just as a flash mob.
So long as it's peaceful there wouldn't be a lot they could do about it either.

"would show the TV companies, the board and the media what a soulless bowl this stadium really is. "
And this would benefit us how? The time to do all this shit was before they moved surely?

Face it, we're going to be in the championship next season at this rate. Nobody is going to pay to watch championship football in that stadium. The fans might as well continue costing us points like the thick stereotypical boneheads they are.

I won’t be next season. I just can’t justify paying for such a miserable experience.

You wouldn’t notice the difference, there empty seats clearly visibly round the stadium ALWAYS.
Just don’t go.

Why not just not go at all. An empty stadium would make more headlines.
