Is it possible to roll down the hill on a wheeled trojan horse and through the gates opened by the Sky Blue Commandos?
Lead by example and get something started.

You are right in what you are saying, but you aren't offering any solutions. And I doubt any 'extreme action' for example running on the pitch would have any real impact other than points deductions and bans.
I think we need to concentrate our efforts in attending away games and make sure the away end is full every time.
Forget Sixfields and let SISU exhaust their efforts first and we can pick up whats left.
I got the bug back at Arsenal so my arse is out my hands again.
I can see Wally.

Unfortunately I believe this is as wrong as any boycott. By going to games either at 'home' or away fixtures you are showing there is support for the club while we wait around for it to emerge from it's owners stance. Now if you were to simply not go to any games then those owners would have some serious food for thought. fans would be showing they are losing interest and the next generation of fans, the 14 year olds etc will not be attending a Sky Blue game and just like when I was a kid, get caught up as a fan for life.
So if you are serious and meaningful, then don't attend any games home or away. That would get SISU's attention. While you continue to show up in great numbers away from home you show them they have not lost the support when they bring the team back 'home' to the area.
Otis was also correct, all sides need to be approached. Merely going at one side in this dispute will not effect a change unless you are appealing to the others who make up the involvement.

Confession time, I was one of the pitch invaders at Crawley. The feeling at the time Spionkop was exactly as you state. We were 2-0 down with Crawley looking like they could score every time they attacked, the 1st half not even half way through, coming a day after the liquidation news. We just thought Fuck it, if this is what these Bastards (SISU) have reduced our club to, we need to make our protest in the most visual way we knew how. We were so disappointed that more fans did not follow.Standup, you are so right. First game of the season at Crawley I was sitting in the side stand. About 7 or 8 City fans ran on the pitch. I waited for the thousand or so on the terrace behind the goal to follow and do a sit in protest on the centre circle. It never happened. On this forum after the few that ran on the pitch were ridiculed. This was the big chance to set the mark and we missed it.
The Arsenal thing was great to be part of, but it isn't enough.
So agree...and have you noticed how reluctant people are to respond or contribute to this post...says it all doesn't it!
The last league game I attended was at Sixfields against Orient. It was a Tuesday night and I was over that way on business so I went to see what the fuss was about. Have not and probably will not attend a game again unless it's a playoff game where the reason would to naturally support the lads in getting us up a league and hopeful that in itself could bring change to our plight.
We should not be at sixfields regardless of the stance SISU have taken. There has been enough room to manoeuvre a temporary playing scenario at the Ricoh with out affecting their stance one bit against the council/ACL. They could have simply said "it was for the fans" and that would have given them so much more credit than they are getting. That I fear is where Ms Sepella who openly admits it anyway, has not got a clue what football means in this country.

Had they have done this it would have had a detrimental effect on their own NOPM campaign, namely giving ACL money/oxygen.
