I keep saying it. 

A game that's on TV needs to be picked. And all season ticket holders and everyone who is proper West Ham needs to get a ticket and 10 minutes after KO everyone needs to walk out. Leave the stadium almost empty with just the day trippers sitting there wondering what the fuck is going on. 

It will have a massive impact. and raise the profile of getting Sullivan out. 

Sullivan will detest this as it is a bad look. It ruins the match for the day trippers. Sky won't be happy as it detracts from their wonderful brand. 

People just need to stump up for a ticket and sacrifice it for the protest.

Currently 2,299 signed the petition any more for any more....

I want to see one of those flash global heat map breakdowns of those that voted as well like on the Govt website. 

Sullivan and Brady's egos won't be able to handle significant numbers voting against them. Won't change a thing but it would get under their wrinkly old skin.

If ever there was evidence needed that napoleon and that absolute horror Brady need to go it was Sunday's shit show against Forest. Why?
Well, the fact that we have a top class shot stopping keeper who's weakness is kicking is well known. So, regularly our know-nothing manager has him playing out from the back and a final telling error is made. Yes, Areola made the mistake. Potter rigidly insists on playing this way despite clearly not having the players to do so. But Brady pushed for a manager who is now statistically worse than Grant; Sullivan sanctioned a deal without a break clause and permits this fool of a manager to continue. The player and manager errors are symptoms, the cause of the illness is the boardroom.
The fact that this twat of a manager was not on a break clause is on them. Would he survive at any other club with the drearfest and lack of results he serves up? No. If he had had a caretaker role would he still be in a job? No.
The fact that we only hire managers from the labour exchange is entirely down to Sullivan. And the shitfest football that comes from that is on him.
The fact that Potter thinks it is OK, and not job threatening, to pick a midfield that has as much life in it as the average morgue is on his directors. There were options. When they came on we actually completed some forward passes. Potter should be shit scared for his job, this wasn't the first time this diabolical football was served up with negative results. He should not be planning to get rid of our best players to fund acquisitions for next season.
The Club claim they don't need a director of football as Sullivan is going to oversee player trading. Bollocks. Sullivan, Potter and the Data analysist are a recipe for disaster.
We have always had bad stewardship from the board in my lifetime, The Caerns; Terrence Brown, who still hangs around like a bad smell, and these bastards, who quite probably could be the worst of the lot.
Cresswell has been a great servant for this club. Did we give him a fitting farewell? No. The club would not even stump up for a testimonial.
Fabianski has been a great servant for this club. It would have been fitting to give him at least half a match on Sunday, but no, Potter decided against that.
Coufal has been a great servant for the club. Allowing him to walk around the pitch with the others after a crap season and a crap game is hardly celebrating his time as a hammer.
I briefly stayed to show some appreciation, it was clear that not many others bothered. That shortage of numbers is not on the players or the fans, It is on the board that create and perpetuate an apathetic environment (How many season ticket holders who signed up for the first year at the toilet bowl have moved on? is it around 30,000? not much "customer satisfaction" there then.)
We also have the ignominious hawking of players around the market (Kudus; Paqueta; Alvarez; and virtually anyone else) that should be embarrassing to owners of a team who only two years ago won a European trophy. It is on them that disastrous boardroom decisions have seen us languishing in the doldrums rather than consistently challenging for/in Europe.
It is rumoured that the club budgeted for an 8th place finish. That being the case why was the player recruitment not targeted and controlled by the director of football rather than "you have one pick, I have one pick" approach? Why was a bargain basement, train wreck manager who mastered Powerpoint given the role of managing the club rather than someone who fitted with a progressive approach. The lack of vision and strategy rest with the board.
These cunts plead poverty as if it was something to be proud of. Perhaps they are as they certainly did everything possible to fail.
The Caerns showed the way to be classless in the humiliating removal of John Lyall. They also demonstrated how, after relative success (finishing third in the league), with a careful lack of investment failure can be achieved easily (relegation).
The utter contempt  the current owners of our club, led by Sullivan, show for the players and fans explores new depths.
The circus is truly back in town, to Quote Grace Slick, "It's just Hell!" and will remain so until they go.

Good intentions but futile. Wait for Sullivan to die is the only chance of change. And it may not be good change even then if his sons take over but it will mean the current malignant narcissistic owner no longer runs the show. 

Us older fans need to keep healthy and outlive ”Little Dave”. He’ll probably live until his late 90s though knowing our luck.

Perhaps a more effective strategy would be to hit our sponsors where it hurts through refusing to do business with them or anyone associated with them and posting up all/any bad experiences you've/we've had with them: relentlessly & incessantly posting up (here or on social media sites) all/any bad experiences you've/we've had with them.

That way you/we can still get our matchday fixes with our mates...as we always have.

Then consider expanding those activities to the sponsors of Brand PL, Brand UEFA & Brand FIFA.

If they twig that associating themselves with West Ham/PL/UEFA/FIFA is actually having a visible negative impact on their profits & sales (advertising agencies will, however, forbid them from having such thoughts), they may reconsider another strategy to drive growth that doesn't include using professional football as a billboard.

That will then force the media to re-evaluate the cost of broadcasting such games and, as a consequence, offer much less money to do so the next time around.

Never mind hacking into The Co-op, Harrods & M&S and fucking up their IT. A hack that prevents the media from broadcasting (football), or makes it free to the end-user would make a much bigger statement, despite it impacting on my divine right to watch my team whenever and where ever I (not you. just me) want to watch my team.

Agreed, but those two haven’t happened or don’t look like happening, and you won’t get everyone to agree to it.
Surely everyone can agree that they’re a fucking cancer and it should be pointed out, as I said if you’re bothered enough to comment what harm and how long does it take to get onboard?

Rather than the Club killing Sullivan, yes 100% I'd have any of them again over him. A bit like how would you prefer to die kinda question though.

Don't think anyone on here is naive enough not to know owners are business people out to make a profit and to maximise this profit. However there needs to be a comprimise to the fans in selling them a product they can enjoy. This where there has been a complete failure. They are probably happy to invest enough to keep us in 17th and above. To add though we as fans have become complacent in allowing this to happen There should be more demos. What happened v Burnley scared the shit out them.

sullivan is a thick, capricious chancer with a napoleon complex and the worst taste this side of a qatari interior designer, but i think brady represents the ultimate upwards falling risible corporate midwit. considers herself a negotiation genius but has successfully swerved just about any interview where someone doesn't huff her venomous farts in the full knowledge that she would get laid out on the deck as soon as some home truths got aired.
 
this whole potter business might have been the end of her if she hadn't spent the last thirty years burying skeletons for sullivan, something she has no doubt documented extensively for safe keeping

when i look at how we handle ourselves as a footballing outfit, i can see sullivan's fuck ups all over it, but when i look at how we've "evolved" as a club, i don't see brady's fuckups, i see her design, and it's as vile as her reconstructed visage.
Wonderful post. 100% bang on. 

"Sullivan is a thick, capricious chancer with a napoleon complex and the worst taste this side of a Qatari interior designer."
