Did you go for the toilet and come back and everybody had gone? Bit harsh

No I won’t. Of course not but in modern times every organisation has a voting system that’s online - the venue would not accommodate all members so that’s undemocratic in itself - I would agree elected representatives need to attend but all democratic organisations allow all members a voting opportunity or it’s a closed shop

It's occurred to me I don't know where any loos are without having to buy a ticket
You stuck out like a sore thumb. You were half the age of everyone else.

I’ll vote for him too. For comic effect obviously.

Most wouldn't even know about it. I think it's easy to forget what a little community SBT is and assume it represents the wider support.

And to rub it in Google Maps asks 'how was Ricoh Arena?'

I was thinking can I reach that far down to shake your hand. Glad you came.

To be fair a lot of people expressed interest to PSB but it's easy to express interest on social media. Different thing to actually turn up though it was short notice in fairness

From a hand shake?

Fair play everyone that went today. Could be the start of something bigger.

tbh this almost makes it worse. When it was just on here, ten would have been an achievement(!) Last night I allowed myself a spot of optimism, when I read 90-odd had committed elsewhere.
Should have known better!

Still, it'll be cheap to make the T-Shirts up that say we were there!

The Jimmy Hill Statue?

Yeah, I kept hearing it too, but decided to ignore it at first.
Is it apathy or fatigue, or both? There have been many well attended protests over the years. Was it 6000 who marched into town, and a similar amount a year later? I was at the Charlton away march in decent numbers. The Rochdale protest was very well attended. We've had pigs x 2, sit-ins, pitch invasions home and away, that really impressive display at Arsenal on TV. I stood on the hill at Northampton, all that stuff, and where has it got us? We've had years and years of it and we get nowhere. I feel a bit guilty about not going today but it's just exhausting. Not an excuse, but I do understand it.
