Combine all of the ideas mentioned, we need a real "Show Stopper" I think we have been pussy footing around uptill now, who can remember the last time a game was abandoned due to anything other than freak weather conditions, floodlight failure, violence or player injury.
Total disruption of this fixture is essential, only lawful and peacefull actions though please.
We need to attend in Numbers, how about taking the 32,000 that attended the JPT fixture last season, with no one entering the ground, that would be intresting lol

Could you get a Wembley ticket for turning up at Sixfields?

This has got me thinking, what about organising a "SKY BLUE CRUSADE" to coincide with the Sheffield United match, a mass exodus of Coventrians turning up in Northampton , not only would it bring the match to a halt, but the whole of Northampton to a virtual standstill. A organised convoy of veichals all decked out in Sky Blue, leaving Coventry from certain points.

Half a city emigrating for a day.
Perfectly lawful
Surely this would generate huge media intrest.


When Rangers played in Manchester for the UEFA Cup Final a few years ago they took over a hundred thousand, and brought it to a stand still, let's replicate this, minus the violence that broke out.

Sky Blue Trust get this organised.

Some of the people on here are not City fans - actually wanting us to be deducted more points and wanting to cheer our opponents on? Unbelievable.

No one has more influence over the league than sky with all it's money, if the game had to be called off because 1000 plus fan got into the pitch, sat down peacefully and caused no trouble then I'm pretty sure they would not prosecute the masses as its just not worth it. What would sky show in the game had to be abandoned? This would get maximum coverage

How about we all turn up at Sixfields dressed as Crusaders?

All that is needed is a sit down protest in front of the ticket desk / entrances. It takes 2-3 people blocking each entrance and say 10 people covering the main desk. Sure the security might be able to move yo on, but they will have a big problem doing it for every gate. At the very least it will massively inflate the cost of hosting games, as extra security staff will be needed to drag the protestors away from the gates and the policing costs would also massively increase!

By doing this the costs will more than offset the additional £100k they got from sisu. Also think of the bad publicity sisu dragging away all those peaceful protests!

Alternatively an even simpler and avoids any legal physical hassles - just boycott every single game until sisu goI will be adopting the second option, but feel free to adopt the first suggestion! Sit down on the pitch is a crazy idea.
