Possibly, could be a warning or even a fine it is against FL and FA rules to disrupt a football match and the game had started all be it for only about 20 seconds, the referee is duty bound to submit a report.

Another thing it's also against the law and I wouldn't put it past Tim Fisher to have people ejected and arrested for throwing on to the pitch with banning orders to follow. It would also give him the oxygen of adverse publicity against the protest organisers allowing him to deflect and water down the reasons behind it, I just hope the organisers are savvy.

It wouldn't. They kick off to an empty stadium anyway and it just looks like people are getting there late.

Exactly, in the same way the boycott doesn't make any difference from a visual point of view the stadiums only ever a 1/4 full anyway.

If we had 20k a week to 7k that'dake an impact etc

As mentioned before.
Yes the club is fined.
Now the FL are saying they will also deduct points off the offending club.
For that reason alone it is a none starter.

Selling the stadium out and having a huge protest whilst the game is on will have a far bigger impact.

Is it illegal to throw a pig at Fisher, I'm pretty sure I could get him from my seat?

I mentioned on a different thread about throwing Sky Blue toilet rolls onto the pitch, that would look spectacular, it would also be linked to SISU as their tenure has been absolutel toilet.
Toilet rolls are also very cheap and easily available to all?

You won't fill the place, there wasn't enough between the 500 outside and the 7.5k inside to fill it. You won't get that 7.5k to boycott either evidently, so probaly won't get them to come in late or anything.

Your question is: what can you do of worth with 500 people out of 8,000?

How about trying to source somebody that does masks... if they can do it cheap enough Tim Fisher masks would raise a lot of media interest..If not TF then some random ones that will get media coverage

Good idea but you will still get the usual posters on here moaning you have spoilt there view, and the noise of blowing them up might put the team off.

I think someone suggested black scarves previously....... I think that would be something that could be done ........ simple black with CCFC on say in sky blue

But taking it a step further make a small charge and have that cover cost and a donation to the Jimmy Hill Legacy fund....... should help sales and do some good for others too.

something those attending or boycotting can do and still be supporting team & protest

probably already been suggested.

That's very expensive
The ones produced in England for the Chelski and Arsenal games came in at £2.50 and sold at a fiver.
