nufcjb Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 The only way this can gain momentum and attention from those who are on the fence is for the atmosphere to be loud and toxic from the 1st minute and sustained througout the game. If possible, it needs to start even before kickoff. The chants and noise needs to continue even if we concede goals after goals and the anger needs to be directed at Ashley. Remember the Pardew protest against Pardew at the Cardiff game. Was toxic throughout. Can it be replicated? Probably not because we know how our home crowds are but perhaps maybe one time only, this can be done and work. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geordiedean Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Just storm the pitch and sit down in the centre circle after 15 minutes if enough do it the game gets abandoned live on TV Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ToonTastic Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 If you are willing to sit on your hands tonight and stay silent and participate in no protests then I really do think you are part of the problem. I don't see any positives from action like that. You are achieving nothing except silently backing Ashley. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wallsendmag Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 I've never been to a game all season but I'm seriously considering picking up one of the spare tickets going on Twitter so I can join in with the protests. Problem is I don't trust the current fanbase to make it the toxic atmosphere that it should be meaning that I'll have wasted 30 quid or whatever I can pick up a spare ticket for as I have no interest in the actual match.

Toon No9 Posted January 29, 2019 Share Posted January 29, 2019 Just storm the pitch and sit down in the centre circle after 15 minutes if enough do it the game gets abandoned live on TV ???? Now that's how you make a protest. ...if the game gets abandoned I assume we will lose 3-0, so might be good for our goal differance as well.?

Throwing a tennis ball is hardly inciting violence or riots I don't see the word violence in that sentence though it states in their first paragraph its the throwing things on the pitch and encouraging others that may be grounds to have caused an offence.
