Been listening to the debate as to whether or not to boycott the Boxing Day game and just don't think its viable. Too many won't miss a game at this time of the year. So how about an alternative approach. Turn up, but still make a concerted point.

I suggest that for one game only we look to relocate a significant portion of the fans to the quietest area of the ground (season ticket holders should be able to switch without cost... until the club notice) and then make some noise... Blocks 24-26 perhaps? Benefits?
- Concerted effort / with little effort required from participants
- Clear message to the club but very clearly still supporting the team;
- A ground with no/few fans behind the goal would be embarrassing - people could also move on the day;
- We might have some fun and all us noisy buggers together might create a fantastic atmosphere

Just a thought... By the way, also support the Southampton boycott.

At the moment the quietest area of the ground is ..... errr .... the ground. Basically just choose anywhere.

well ST already paid for so funds already in their ass pocket so whats the point, problem is normally people come up at boxing day as tradition, it would be interesting to see whether that is the case this year, i doubt it!

The ground is soulless and this is by far the most depressing time as a CCFC fan. The atmosphere reflects that

I really, really hope quiet the opposite happens than a boycott of the Bristol match, leave that for the Southampton game. We should fill the Ricoh to the rafters Boxing Day armed with banners galore and give SISU the verbal shite they deserve. I still believe Joy Sepalla and Dermot Coleman (SISU's owners) can't get it through their heads what a football club means to it's fans. It is time to show them,espcially after Dulieu exploits Saturday

i commented earlier in the season that our ground is dead because all our vocal fans sit out the way in block 15 not influencing the game.........

how about a west terrace reunion day for boxing day with people moving to front rows of telegraph stand
