    Cancel the boycott

    I think you may be taking a bit of a leap there. Nobody is seeking to excuse racism, and I've never been comfortable with the use of the word 'racist' as a catch-all term for people who have views that are considered questionable. From what I know, and I haven't seen the retweets in question...

    Cancel the boycott

    Witch-hunt. Not surprised by it, we live in an age where somehow it is more important to be moralistic than it is moral, where what you think is considered more important than what you do. It doesn't matter if you're decent, charitable, generous and moderate in your actions; if you have a view...

    Red and Black Scarves

    I wasn't suggesting this be done instead of those things, it can be done as well as. But point taken.

    Red and Black Scarves

    I'll make some enquries and update you when I have placed the order. Knowing my luck, the day they arrive SISU will sell up! Although, I'd take that.

    Red and Black Scarves

    I've emailed a couple of UK companies to get an idea, but they might turn out expensive. £3 quid is the target price, sell them for a fiver if possible. Will probably have to get them from China in the end. Cheers for the link.

    Red and Black Scarves

    That's a pity, perhaps they thought you were Leicester Tigers fans! Could go for the pink and navy from 1889 - would stand out and wouldn't clash with the colours of other clubs.

    Red and Black Scarves

    Toying with the idea of getting hold of a load of red and black scarves (colours of Singers FC 1892-1898) to sell amongst city fans. This has been an effective and non-confrontational way of demonstrating opposition to club ownership at Man Utd and currently at Charlton - but in our case can be...

    Anyone recognise any of these players ?

    Not sure what Mark Robins was doing with the team, but he has aged well (4th left).

    The Pigs

    I think what was noticeable yesterday was just how organised the Charlton fans were, and how they seemed to have funds at hand to spend on the kind of creative protest we saw at The Valley, gaining a lot of exposure and publicity. If someone has the idea to throw thousands of pork pies onto the...

    The Pigs

    Saw a lot of the black and white scarves yesterday. That idea was mentioned here a couple of years ago, but never took off. Think the suggestion was that we wear red and green (city's civic colours), although given that a local non-league side have adopted those colours now, not sure how that...

    The Pigs

    I'll match that £100. Any crowdfunding needs to be under the banner of an organisation though rather than an individual - otherwise that one person becomes a target. I know that individuals are already putting their hands in their pocket paying for banners, t-shirts, flags and perhaps we...

    Trains at the Ricoh

    To be fair, I've seen trains stop and load up after city games also. I think the one hour suspension of services is no longer happening, although the offical line is that it is.

    The Pigs

    Has that come from a wealthy individual or do they have some sort of fund-raising in place?

    The Pigs

    It's a difficult one because it's not something an individual would put their name to I guess. Not sure if it could be done anonymously. The danger I guess is if there is civil disobedience and any laws are broken it might open up the people who are behind the crowd funding to scrutiny. It's...
