I agree, but it doesn't need much organising to protest outside the stadium on the hill.
I am sorry pusbccfc but I have to say more could and possibly should have been done to organise a better protest IMO.
I hate to say it but the Trust and KCIC, there have been some great ideas from fans, but to my knowledge I have not seen anything of a diffinitive nature posted as the protest action for the game.
How could the Trust organise a protest?
They are supposed to be talking to all parties and get them together not protest against any one group..
I'm sorry to say it would be much better if you were all inside Sixfields getting behind the team & the manager and forget the stupid politics & protests IMHO!
It doesn't have to be protesting against any one group though.
The march wasn't, and as a result got numbers.
An assertion that Cov should be in Cov isn't taking sides, it's a statement of identity.
Agreed NW but I am trying to say that publically the Trust cannot be seen being on any one side.
They look to have got there act together with leadership and direction but to come out and help promote a protest is not going to help them getting to the right people. Am sure some will be with us on the Hill but not at the Trust but as supporters.
Sky will have reporters there, thats a scary thought, dont you hate the way the reporter allways picks out the halfwit and his best mate, makes whatever town or City they are in look and sound like a bunch of retards.
Luckily i wont be there, but please be thoughtful and considered if your interveiwed.
more than that at both ends of the standThere was roughly 100 empty seats.

But what I meant is if the hill is the majority view why aren't thousands on the hill? What is this majority view anyway?

Yeah, that's the spirit. Just roll over and take whatever crap these vile owners throw at you. Move the Coventry City to Northampton? Fine, no problem SISU, I'll follow you. How far will you let them push you before you stand up for yourself? This club represents a city with a long proud and distinguished history for standing up against all sorts of adversity. And you call it stupid politics and protests? Pathetic.
I've been thinking along those same lines myself, and my conclusion is that the majority of posters on this site are heavily biased against anything that has anything even remotely positive about SISU, whether it is logical or not (and in most cases it is not). The standard request to prove this statement beyond any semblance of doubt will be ignored.
What I would like to know is how representative the opinions of the aforementioned majority on SBT is of the fan base at large. I can see straight away that the attendances at Sixfields have suffered, but the protests have been rather pathetically attended (except the march, which really made a mark). As far as I can see, when we get closer to home, whether it be at the Ricoh or somewhere just outside the city boundary, attendances will improve, especially if results combined with attractive football keep going our way.
There's almost a sub-culture that has been created where the club itself is no longer important, and has had its place taken by a sort of witch hunt whose only real aim is to destroy SISU, even if it means the end of Coventry City.
'Always' 'You're' 'Interviewed'
Whatever you do Sky wont be focussing on it - will be a brief mention in the build up but thats it - they are the least likely broadcaster to get involved in murky club politics. I suspect there will be more focus on Sheff Utd than us, what with them being the big club and that.
Of course if you do something really fucking crackpot like fireworks on the pitch etc as some have suggested on here then you really will stuff up the ability to protest forever.
Really dont know why you dont all buy a ticket, cheer the team when they do well and then boo the fuck out of them and shout Sisu Out if they go a goal down- you know, like you did at the Ricoh last year. There is even a special stand for you all opposite the main stand. You can wave your banners and wear your old 90s kits all you like over there.
So we should just all give up and pay to go inside Sixfields?
Let's just all bend over even more and let SISU and Timmy take what little pride we have left?
Sky will not allow other TV Cameras inside on Sunday, but they have a chance to cover some of the game and also see a little bit of a protest so why will they not cover it.
Your comment about being in a different stand is typical, you are the sort who like being the centre of attention and helping to split the support.
Your choice to go to games, my choice to stand on hill?
So what would success look like for this game, .
Brilliantly put. Well said.

No Hill on Sunday, I have been told Police will not allow it this Sunday!!!. Apparently this happens on certain games when Northampton are playing at sixfields....
official away attendance was 1,229.
The way end only holds 1,280 where did you get your 1600 allocation from ?
I'd love to join, however my daughter is mascot for the day. It's our first match this season. We've missed going so much! I wondered how I'd feel about it bit I'm actually looking forward to it. I'd like to ask, while I'm here that anyone protesting, amongst the anger, remember my daughter and the other children that will be there. They only want to see Sam and their heroes playing the sport they love! Send the message but don't ruin their experience. They're at the age we all were when we fell in love with the game and the sky blues.

Obviously not. Have you seen the size of the hill? You'd need a thousand police officers to block off the whole hill.
To add to this its a public footpath too, how will the block that off.
