Title: Brighton Goldstone protests Post by: Panda Paws on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 19:21:39 Good watch.
Should we consider (peacefully) doing the same? Title: Brighton Goldstone protests Post by: OneAndrewFitton on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 19:22:46 I think it's too little too late, we had our chances but the majority of fans didn't want to know.

On a serious level we really need to step up the protest's if we do manage to get to the Brighton game.

I know. I was part of the crowd that stood outside the Arkells singing for the head of the board ... But ... I refuse to give up until we default on a fixture and get kicked out of the league - and that hasn't happened yet. Anything, at this point, is worth a try if you ask me.

a) Peaceful b) Legal ? Title: Brighton Goldstone protests Post by: Fred Elliot on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 19:28:19 Quote from: "Si Pie" What haven't we tried that's: a) Peaceful b) Legal ? FUCK THAT Title: Brighton Goldstone protests Post by: OneAndrewFitton on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 19:29:24 Most people now want to do illegall not legal, the fans have done things legally for far too long now.
Title: Brighton Goldstone protests Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 19:30:32 Fred - your caps lock is turned on.
Title: Brighton Goldstone protests Post by: Fred Elliot on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 19:30:36 LEGAL ? ...............YES
PEACEFUL ? ............................. NOT A FUCKING CHANCE Title: Brighton Goldstone protests Post by: Fred Elliot on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 19:31:18 Quote from: "Si Pie" Fred - your caps lock is turned on. FUCKING RIGHT I CAN SHOUT IF I WANT TO :( Title: Brighton Goldstone protests Post by: Spud on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 19:33:46 The thing is...if we get to the Brighton game and stand outside i bet it will be the same faces as per usual as most Swindon fans seem to think that a miraculous pot of Gold will make an appearance and save us from going under.
GET A FUCKING GRIP YOU CUNTS. Title: Brighton Goldstone protests Post by: glos_robin on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 19:48:58 I honestly don't think we'd ever be able to match protests like that, the majority of our fans just can't get home soon enough or believe the lies fed to them.
I mean FFS we've spent over a year trying to make it clear what a state this club was in..........what was the thanks abuse, the tag of being 'busybodies' and on the whole ignored by most. Apathy rules supreme unfortunately and looking at the Brighton videos it just makes me more angry. Title: Brighton Goldstone protests Post by: stfc_steve on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 19:49:25 Im at the protests when i hear about them.
But like you said spud its the same old people turning up. Some of our fans are spineless pricks I cant believe this is happening Title: Brighton Goldstone protests Post by: STFC4LIFE on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 19:51:33 You say that but, my old man who has not been at any of the protests said.
'You'll start seeing alot more older fans now, including myself'. One last fucking time, make it a goodun and lets start sorting it now.

But then they'll just release some half baked statement and too many will fall for it.........again.

NOT FUCKING THIS TIME EVERYONE PLEASE BELIEVE ME THEY HAVE NOW GOT FUCKING NOWHERE TO TURN CUNTS Title: Brighton Goldstone protests Post by: herthab on Thursday, December 6, 2007, 19:57:21 I don't think attacking other fans, who for whatever reason, (Probably that they don't come onto the forums) decided not to protest is helping.
The blame lies firmly with one small group of people: SSW, MD and JW. All this bullshit about fans 'not caring' because they didn't chose to protest is way wide of the mark imho, the club has done a first class snow job. It's not been apathy, it's been ignorance........................................

NOT FUCKING THIS TIME EVERYONE PLEASE BELIEVE ME THEY HAVE NOW GOT FUCKING NOWHERE TO TURN CUNTS I agree wholeheartedly mate and will continue to do all I can but most of our fans just have ignored everything and will probably continue to do so.

You are right Hertha and I agree with you but on the flip side there have been alot of people who have attacked the Trust, protests etc that do use forums and had access to the facts. These chose instead to ridicule protesters and just ignore facts when presented right in front of them |
