Can’t help but think why haven’t The Trust etc or the powers that be got something sorted like a pubic demonstration for this game ?

Pretty much 30k and going I’m certain Birmingham fans would be on board...seems like a chance will be missed to really make some noise regarding our position.

It will be about 19,000 I think because a lot of seats are not even for sale

Just under 21K I think. 9300 Blues, 10,500 of us.

I think any demo needs to be at a Wasps game as the publicity and focus needs to be on them at the moment. After last season’s effort it would need to be much more widely publicised an supported to have an effect. I think a group being inside the Ricoh at a televised Wasps match would be best.

I'd happily come along to a demo on Saturday.

I did think that attending a Wasps game and all congregating together. Making some noise and perhaps "sitting in" for a few hours after the final whistle.

I don't think it really matters at all if he was miles off with his estimate does it?

No way I’m dropping my pants for a pubic demonstration!
I could ask the ex-wife though!

How many would be prepared to buy a ticket and attend, peacefully, in person? If we all grouped together once in...made noise, wore colours (covered until together) and sat in after the game?

I would love to do that if plenty got involved. I understand people don't wanna give them money etc but it's our only realistic way of a protest on a wasps match day

Great idea. Imagine 5000 city fans all in sky blue at a game chanting throughout. Some message that would send. Never happen on that level but what a protest.

If we can get an idea of numbers i'd be happy to arrange something. I supposed it would need to be done covertly as if we openly mentioned the game we were going to they'd try and shut it down.

Happily at Wasps (when we're not playing), but let's not spoil whats going on the pitch at one of our games. Young lads and it could really set them apart from the unity we've all built. Remember last time it was utterly toxic.

I couldn’t attend a Wasps game under any circumstances - I’m afraid I’d continually spew for the entire game!

Yeah, I think that would be the overall opinion which is fair enough.

I have said it before, it it was a well supported protest, I'd actually pay to go into a Wasps game to take part.
It would need publicising though, we all know the Cov Tel and the Trust won't have anything to do with it.

Absolutely needs to be more of this Saturday. Be a lot of media at the game this weekend. A few renditions will be good.

I would do it but we would need more than the 21 who turned up last time.

I'd be up for coming up to Cov for a Wasps demo in stadium.....not keen on paying for ticket as I'm a tight git, but would if I had to. Agree would need about 50 to make it work though and civilised but noisey and colourful protest. Sure a few more on BookFace and Twatter might be interested.
