Great to bring our cause to the media but I hope the few idiots we have dont use it to get on the pitch.
A pitchinvasion wont do anything xcept turn oposition fans and the media against us and distract from the real issue

With the situation as it is I don't think those intent on voicing their opinion will give a monkeys about what opposition supporters will think. It's getting to the stage where we need publicity and if it means that the TV reports on CCFC supporters reacting to the possibility of the end of their club (which has had minimal TV coverage) then so be it. If we are weeks away from liquidation I don't think supporters of other clubs would expect anything less than our fans venting their fury. Most fans of other clubs will sympathise and let us get on with it. I'm not advocating pitch invasions or violence, but I do expect a response now that the clock is well and truly ticking down.

It’s gettinf towards the time now surely of mass protests at games not just a few 100 fans but a few 1000 at least 6 home games left...

I am really confused !! What is it you pointed out weeks ago.
Please don't point me in the direction of previous posts ( to many), but simple one sentence response.

I meant the demonstration...

In fairness, it's the same as SISU repeatedly trying legal action in the hope it might one day do something.

It might get talked about on TV after the game for a bit but in reality none of the parties will probably be watching and none of them will give a shit. The same as the stuff happening after our games.

It probably won't achieve anything, some protests do, (poll tax), some don't (Iraq war), but you've got to try.
I think the properly organised protests/gestures are great, I agree about the after the game stuff when it's all kept secret , to me it's just so a clique can say look at us.

But this is the issue, we are going to Luton so ideally we need home support. If we piss them off and disrupt the game, it isn’t going to help the cause probably make it worse

It's been a while since one of our games on sky was interrupted by a pitch invasion?

When was the last time it happened and against who?

I don’t think that could’ve gone any better. Very few paper areoplanes and I think most held them up. Would’ve been happy with a couple of hundred at the end but I’d guess 5-600 stayed. Got to give it to LTFC. They couldn’t have been more helpful.

Again, this is a genuine honest question so think before going mental.

What actually made it a success? I am genuinely interested to know what makes something like that a success as I can then try and figure out the aim behind it.

That's not taking anything away from the effort that people went to, but why do people come away from that thinking "yeah that went well"? What's the reason?

Again, I am just genuinely trying to find out the thought process behind it.

Yes but again.

Why does support from Luton and Man Utd or Liverpool fans catching the end on TV in the pub make it a success?

I am trying to figure out the aims here, if it is a success I assume it achieved the aims.

Genuine support from Luton fans during and after the game.
Tv understood what was going on with potential Man Utd and Liverpool fans coming early to watch at home and pubs
Why was fisher there????

Genuine question why is he there?

So what does today which was a success to do achieve that and how?

Whenever I ask I have people jump in and go absolutely mental, but nobody ever really explains it.

To achieve that we need:

1. Wasps to do a deal
2. SISU to drop the legals and then see if Wasps do a deal

How does that push towards either of those?

I am trying to just discuss it to get the viewpoint.

It’s a fair enough question. In any walk of life if you take action you have a desired outcome. Don’t see an issue with Nick asking what that was.

It has shown that the fans care. It has also enlightened supporters of other clubs that weren’t aware of our plight.

Beyond that? Fuckall m8
