How is dropping down yet another division doing anything other than lessening the chances of the club's survival?

The lower we fall the more likelihood of no Coventry City at all.

Back the team, protest against the owners.

Surely that should be the one clear main factor in any protest.

Of course the club could be hurt as a result for some actions, but it shouldn't be the aim. Throwing flares on the pitch ONLY hurts the club and no-one else.

Flares are illegal at sports events other than sea related stuff & parachuting. Pitch invasions are illegal too. So if you're breaking the law...you are in effect disturbing that peace you mention.

Possession of Flares may well be illegal but invading a pitch is not. It may infringe certain football rules and if not peaceful may lead to arrest but taking to a field of play is not in and of itself illegal.

Why can't people realise that multiple people can be blamed?

It isn't hard is it?

People throwing bottles at families = pricks
People throwing smoke bombs and running on the pitch = pricks

Couldn't give a shit about own or not. The same as if it was city fans throwing bottles and northampton fans throwing smoke bombs, both pricks. The "our own" stuff doesn't hold up or excuse anything.

Just because some northampton fans were twats, it doesnt mean some CCFC fans arent.

What did Wigan fans think? What do opposition fans think?

What will gradually start to happen when it disrupts matches?

People are sympathetic until it starts ruining matches they have paid money to go and watch, that's when they get pissed off.

Stop keep blaming fellow supporters Nick.

We all have different ways of venting our anger some peaceful some not, Sisu have driven many over the edge where something drastic has to happen.

Points deductions, closed doors, away fans banned comes with the territory of being owned by people who have utter contempt for their customers.

And yes things will escalate......

It is against the law to go on to the playing area see the Football (Offences) Act 1991.

This type of protest (and it is a protest) absolutely has the most impact through to the FL, FA and media. And of course it puts Sisu in the spotlight, which they dont like given how they were flapping about last time.
As to Nick talking about locking up, life banning Cov fans for protesting [in amongst digs at the Trust]- you truly are a traitorous prick.

I'm not saying it's the right or the wrong thing to do, but I bet you all you like that this disruption will gain media attention. That is the point of a protest, no?

And there are many, many fans who believe that relegation will somehow encourage SISU to sell up. There are also many fans that no longer care about our league position or even our existence as a club.

Removing SISU is priority number one for many and takes precedence over all other aspects of supporting the team.

I never used to agree with 'this sort of thing', but frankly I've fucking had enough of it all now. Fuck 'em all.

If you argue with your wife and you punch her in the face, it's no defence to say she 'drove you over the edge'. Adults have to control themselves.

Yes, probably the same fans who said admin would get rid of them and that relegation before would get rid of them. The ones who think SISU will be fined also.

But surely coming on the pitch at half time and sitting in the centre circle would be a better option for instance.

Delays the second half, but doesn't disrupt the game.

Am I missing something, pitch invasion. Match abandoned and we play again with 11. Or are we likely to get a points deduction

Whatever, our feelings about the actions of our fans today. The one point that is undeniable is that they passionately CARE about this club and whilst some may think it's misdirected passsion, they now represent the decreasingly lower number of CCFC fans
Most have now shrugged their shoulders and given up on the club. That is the most worrying thing NOT the spats today

Flares is a step too far
BUT I wonder when football authorities will sit up and take action as there are protests at virtually every game. Fans are more than fed up they feel betrayed by those who have the authority over the game.
