Let's have an orange revolution, fans who support the trust can all turn up with something orange on, for a specified match.  Akin to the Ukrainians a few years ago when their election went pear shaped.

Luggy likes orange, it's a colour that people don't normally wear, it stands out and may show the board the level of support the trust has!!

Oh yeah, he may age 10 years in a week, if the "evil" Mr Diamandis gets his way.

I think the Trust should make up some placards we can hold up to say that we are members and we support them .. the club would probably ban them on "health and safety" grounds tho! :-))(

Orange ribbons would be class though, as it's not as confrontational as placards, it's a subtle hint that we as supporters will not continue to accept the way our club is being run.  Nice and cheap too.

I think it's best to join the trust and let Mr H and the consortium to get on with it.

If they get blocked to the point of no further progress can be made then it's "open season" on protests. I kind of picture a smaller scale gladiator scene with Paul Davis shouting "on my command, unleash the placards .

orange is good...my Ukrainian wife Zina (see L&P lovlies) and I were fervent supporters of the Orange revolution and stood in Kiev Independence sQuare to show our support...I think this is a fantastic idea.

Wilks: We've got the money and proof of cash but don't want to reveal who it is.

Starnes: Then sod off. And a letter from a banker isn't enough.

Wilks: Then what do you want?

Starnes: For you to leave us alone 'cos we ain't playing.

I think the reason why it would work is that, this kind of show of support, isn't vocal, it's just a visual, non threatening, way of showing our support for your consortium.

It also doesn't detract from our support of the lads on the pitch and the manager, you can sing, shout, be as animated as you want, even with an orange ribbon attached to your shirt/coat.

Absolutely ridiculous.

The club asks for investment.

The club gets offered investment.

The club says no.

Had enough. Fuck off Diamandis. get some self respect Mr Starnes - you can see exactly why someone doesn't want to deal with Diamandis.

Mike, if push comes to shove, will the investors not deal with Diamandis whatsoever?

I think this sounds like a great idea would show what big support the consortium has without being vocal and effecting the team.  It would also get some great publicity to bring it more into the media spotlight  :\/

Call out the instigator,
Because there's something in the air
We've got to get together sooner or later,
Because the revolution's here

And you know it's right
And you know that it's right
We have got to get it together
We have got to get it together now....

Thunderclap Newman.
