Would be a good way to get the word across to boycott the southampton game. Very cheap on vista print site. Hand them out outside the ground before the match. Im sure you could find loads of people on here willing to help

Bet you couldn't mate. Most of the ground can't be arsed to sing "SISU OUT". Bunch of lazy spineless arseholes.

Good work though mate, And even if only 20 or so got to see them before they were taken down its still 20 more fans to spread the word!

In the past i've bought flyers from fairprint.co.uk, and always been really pleased with the price and quality. I normally go for the deal where you can get 5,000 full colour A5 flyers for £72. Doesn't take a lot of people to chip in to raise that. £120 for 10,000- could get one to practically everyone in the stadium for that! haha

Good idea Dan.

Whoever printed them and put them in the gents before the game today - can you please put the template on here and we can all print out loads of them and get them into the ground.

F*ck lining SISU's pockets.

When we go down, attendances could well fall below 5,000 for next season.

Maybe if you stay away from the susi out and make it a protest about how they are running the club it might succeed. Even susi lovers surely can't be happy with the way things are.

Not everyone shares your exact views on it, you realise.

I'd love them to explain their bizarre views then. They always seem to simply discredit Hoffman as a plausible alternative (a man who is 100% genuine and respected in the banking world).

Who does? You're calling most of the ground lazy spineless arseholes when you don't know what they think or why.

What they should think is 'get SISU out'. Why would anyone think differently?

Giving that that's what they should all logically think - the only explanation for not making a noise is not caring enough - unless they're all mutes?!

Well I'll give you my opinion of why I don't chant SISU OUT. I sit in middle if tesco stand for a good view. Unfortunately you are an outcast if you sing in that part of the stadium! I once got a load if abuse because I jumped up when we nearly scored. The lazy git behind me would rather start a row than get his heart beating and get excited about a goal scoring opportunity. You quite within your rights to suggest I'm a bit of a defeatist but all people are different. Maybe the block 15 lot should spread themselves out round the stadium a bit. I would certainly join in if I didn't get the moaning and looks of disgust at expressing an opinion. Yes I'm a wimp! ;-)

So you're not just putting words in people's mouths, but also slagging them off for not saying them.

That was me I got the template off the main boycott thread, got enough abuse today. Left some in toilets of casino also. Would love to know who removed them from the lamposts leading upto the Ricoh from tesco.. Cant believe some of the negativity I was getting, was told to grow up by one guy ffs im 36 ive seen enough shit. I also got told to shut up by the spineless lot in block 18.

Because I find it unbelievable that anyone would think otherwise. Please explain why you disagree. An actual reason please; not same vague crap about freedom of thought and speech. Outline why somebody would want SISU 'in'.

Great work mate. Screw those who disagree. Get the template on here and we can all run a load off.

I'm not telling you what people think because I don't know, that's the difference. I wouldn't assume what they think and abuse them though. What you're doing is slagging off people because they're not doing exactly as you are.

If people want a change in ownership but aren't chanting or knocking up banners it doesn't automatically make them spineless or lazy and it's incredibly arrogant and self-important to make such a statement.

Most fans dislike the protesting during the 90 minutes of play! Myself included! We're not "lazy spineless arseholes", we just dont want to take attention away from the fact there is a match on!!

Why dont fans do things before or after the game, or even during Half Time! I realise most fans would prefer to go downstairs and have a beer or two at half time, but that isnt going to get rid of SISU is it!

That would make me wanna piss the guy off behind more! Dont let another fan decide how you will behave (within reason) at a football game. I sit in the CET stand where there is usually little or no singing. Dont stop me shouting as loud as I can if I want to get my point accross (Im hoping that Murphy heard my two rants about him today, one directed to him, and the other directed to Thorn about him )

If the idea of getting leaflets properly printed appeals to people, i just chucked this together:



Can always re-word it or change stuff if needs be (if people like it, that is). 5,000 of them would set us back £72 on fairprint. That'd only take 15 people chipping in a fiver a piece...

Got it full-size on my computer, this is just a preview i made

On the main body (black text) I'd add further mention of protesting outside where you mention the boycott, just to clarify that it's more than not going at all.

As much as I like that leaflet maybe it might be better to tone it down a tad to try and appeal to the fans currently sitting on the fence, just a thought

I'm totally open to suggestions on modifying it. The main body of text on the leaflet is a post from this forum which i copied and pasted over. If anyone would like to suggest changes or even write a new body of text i'll swap it.

Fair play to whoever it was handing them out in block 15, well done

Perhaps add a link to the online protest too and add SISU's logo as that would really annoy them.

Well I would gladly give £5 to the cause as long as you get these things distributed. If you go ahead with this PM me and it's yours.

I have done one and we had 600 in the ground today, I would say we shifted 400 and got a fairly decent reaction
