We took the campaign to London today.

Sisu and the Football League HQs on the tour.

Couple of pics here, and something else planned tomorrow...

We've just updated the gallery with more pics. Some great ones outside the Football League and Sisu's HQ.

I'll have a word with the boss when he's back in. See if there's anything we can do.

Been down in London all day, kept looking out for the Billboard ... but the CT driver obviously doesn't go 'sarf of the river'. I'm told that mugshots of me and others from this forum have frightened young children throughout the Capital.

Seriously, great effort by CT and the photos look fantastic, particularly liked the one by Houses of Parliament.

Just got to say. Total respect for the advan what a mega idea. I thought it was a local stunt but for it to rock up in front of SISU Towers and the FL house of horror is just fantastic. I had it down as naff but you have made me change my mind. KING BRILLIANT if you ask me!

one question i want to ask tho simon, why now?. you all must have known at the c t that sisu were not fit and proper owners. Why did you not put pressure on these people when they moved us to northampton? Dont get me wrong i'm grateful to anyone or organistion that can get us back home asap...but still i wonder why.....

Simon at last we have someone who is prepared to speak up and actually do something for City supporters. Have you been knighted yet or made Prime Minister? Your articles are a breath of fresh air to us and keep the interest going to those of us who are beginning to lose faith.

Will it be visiting the top games of the day once the season starts? Good effort anyway, every bit helps.

It's a bit like all those flyers that come through the door, most go in the bin....but someone somewhere....publicity and advertising are strange beasts.

Ideally it would park up where it would get loads of visitors, although what happens then as there is no real call to action on it. Do they just want people to look at it and then carry on with their day? Do they want the people who see it to do something once they have seen it? (Sign the petition) or is it just to take pictures of in different places? Do they want people to tweet #bringcityhome ?

I don't use social media so I don't know whether people in London picked up and tweeted about it to say "Just seen this driving through London " etc. Did it cause much of a stir? How many tweets from people in London that saw it were there for #bringcityhome ?

A quick bit of research shows this is the 'tweet' details for #bringcityhome so far

Is that since yesterday or whenever the van was there?

Ever. On twitter since twitter began.

For me the main point is getting a massive sign outside of their offices to piss them all off. Not many other people really give a shit.

Is it possible to have a travelling gif show to drive around? Open to abuse perhaps, but would draw more attention

I don't want to make it seem as if I am encouraging you Hill, and not that you need any, but please keep up the good work (there is a gif in there somewhere!)!

The van should go to all live Sky Games and park outside the grounds, especially live FL games.
