Retro WHU badge Hammers United Protests | Who's Going?

Post stubbo-admin »

So next Saturday is the first protest with a pre-game march.

Thought a thread to organise within the context of WHO, who's going, anyone that wanted to get slurps before and after etc might be worth doing.

I'll confirm the logistics of things and post them up as well.

Might I suggest a future protest that involves us all staying out of our seats until the 15th minute - one for every year they owned us?

It's easier in that people who agree don't have to do so much - they don't have to go somewhere early, you're not asking them to miss a game entirely - just stay in the concourse for a bit. As long as it's a TV game it'll look great.

Looked about a couple of thou from the Live stream I saw of it. Whatever it was it was a decent enough turn out for a protest cobbled together quickly only a few weeks ago. Well done 62Hammer. 👍

I went along at 12.45 and guessed a couple of thousand. But I'm pretty useless at guessing crowds. As said, people were arriving  as some were leaving, so it would be difficult to get an accurate figure. Probably won't do any good but what else can you do?

When I turned up around one o clock I reckon there was around 2.5k there but some more joined on as others left.

If you fancied taking the mike and having your say you could of done.

Realistically it needs more to come along and make some noise as well as boycotting all club merchandise and the like 

The only thing I buy now is my match tickets.

Hope everyone behaves because if there's any trouble it will undermine the whole protest and the board and media will just tarnish the whole thing as minority of troublemakers.

Got my WHUST Email about the static protest..

PROTEST THIS SATURDAY 

The West Ham United Supporters’ Trust will actively support the protest this Saturday before the home game against Crystal Palace.

You have voted overwhelmingly to support this action with over 97% voting in favour of the trust endorsing the protest. A number of WHUST board members will join the protest and we ask supporters who can show their support to come too.  

This is a static protest that aims to line the route along Marshgate Lane from Pudding Mill Lane station down to the directors’ entrance to the London Stadium from 12.45pm until 2.15pm on Saturday 20 September.  

Bring flags, scarves and banners. We want fans of all ages, including families and children. We hope to have a carnival atmosphere with plenty of singing and chanting. 

This is to show our owners and players that we love our club, and not to cause trouble. See you there on Saturday. Come On You Irons!

OPEN LETTER TO THE MANAGER AND PLAYERS OF WEST HAM UNITED (from Hammers United)

No doubt you will all be aware that Hammers United recently launched the No More BS campaign, and we would like to take this opportunity to make it absolutely clear that Graham Potter, along with his coaching staff and all the players, have our full support. 

The 'No More BS' campaign is not aimed at you.

Our reasons for launching the No More BS campaign relate specifically to Karren Brady and David Sullivan who, through a toxic combination of arrogance, self-interest, and incompetence, along with a complete disregard for our Club’s history, heritage and fan base, have shown that they are unfit to have any further executive role at West Ham United.

We have called on Brady and Sullivan to resign, and for the board of directors to appoint competent and professional replacements. Until this happens, the No More BS campaign will go on.

A demonstration before the match against Crystal Palace will take place at the main gates, and we are expecting a significant number of like-minded West Ham fans to attend. Should the team bus arrive while this demonstration is in progress, you can be certain that you will receive a fantastic reception from the fans, the overwhelming majority of whom will later be inside the stadium cheering you on to what we hope will be our first home win of the season. 

We are sure you are also aware that we have called on fans to take part in a boycott of the match against Brentford on Monday 20 October. This is not a decision we have taken lightly, but we believe that given the serious nature of the damage that will continue to be inflicted on our Club while Brady and Sullivan remain in place, it is a necessary and justifiable step that must be taken. 

We want you to know that every single fan who takes part in this boycott has the best interests of the Club at heart, and among their number will be fans who have supported West Ham United since the early 1960s. It is notable, despite all the ups and downs they have endured over the decades, where many of them have rarely missed a game, that it has taken Brady and Sullivan's stewardship to bring them to the point where joining a boycott is a price worth paying if it hastens their departure and sets our Club back on the road to recovery.

West Ham fans of all ages will be boycotting this game, but while we may not be there in the flesh, we will all be there in spirit cheering you on to another 3 points.

We hope that you will all appreciate what we, as fans of West Ham United, reluctantly find ourselves having to do, and share our hopes that this Club will soon be able to live up to its full potential. We desperately want all of you to be a part of a thriving football club, and to share in the success we all deserve.

Thank you for your understanding.

COYI

It will be interesting to see the numbers Saturday.

I was hoping to bring a few disenfranchised hammer mates along but they would rather stay in the pub

Just read the club's statement and it appears our fears are unjustified. Everything's fine and there's no need for worry or change.

That's a relief(!)

Trying to appease fans via spin and essentially a recollection of history that is revisionist.   They just do t understand.  Someone needs to ask Brady to publish or show the long term plan. Platitudes and slogans dont cut it.

Looking solely at the 'strong' domestic Cup runs in the previous 9 seasons in the Shithole, it's horrific. 

Since the move:

FA Cup:

- 3rd R
- 4th R
- 4th R
- 4th R
- 5th R
- 5th R
- 5th R
- 3rd R
- 3rd R


Carabao Cup:

- 5th R
- Quarters
- 4th R
- 3rd R
- 4th R
- Quarters
- 3rd R
- Quarters
- 3rd R


That's with all the extra financial muscle compared to the Boleyn, over double crowd capacity our record is shocking. That's with 14 consecutive seasons in the Premier League as well.

The last time we got the furthest in the FA Cup was still at The Boleyn under Bilic reaching the Quarters against Man Utd, only to be cheated out of a winnable Semi Final by Schweinsteiger fouling our Keeper Randolph. 

So by dopey Doris own metric, we've totally failed having a single 'strong' domestic Cup runs, as reaching the Quarter's in the Carabao Cup doesn't wash, sorry.

She blatantly typed that guff up, even if she aint brave enough to stick her name to it. 

Finishing 10th and just about sneaking in to the Europa Conference Cup is nowhere near good enough ambition for us, 'strong' Cup run, even if we remained at The Boleyn, let alone 10 years now since the big money making move.

They have lowered their own bar and by their own admittance gone back on the lies they once boasted to the world we should be aiming for - At least top 6/Champions League qualifying/try to win the FA Cup. We've barely done any of that since the move. Just 1 6th place finish during Covid season with no crowd, shit FA Cup runs and definitely nowhere near Champions League Football. 💩
