Dont know but is it an idea to get red paper with S.O.S - SAVE OUR SWINDON on it? With The town badge as the O's and get fans to hold it up as the players come out? or would people see this as interfering too much and affecting players?

Perhaps the adver would sponsor it and bang their logo on the corner? Could tie in with their SWINDON AND PROUD motto.

The club would no doubt try to ban the paper from the ground as a "Health & Safety" Hazard. This is one of the things they tried during the orange campaign.

The players are much more worried about getting paid, than someone holding up a placard in the ground. People should stop worrying about it and get on with it.

I think this actually sounds a good idea.  S.O.S in big letters with Save Our Swindon below would look really good.  May even be worth looking at for the big advertising board by the county ground people are talking about in the other thread.  Could include some factual information below but that kind of placard would be a great shout  Cool

Does anyone think that the Stewards wont be searching people entering the ground to make sure no anti board messages get out in the form of a placard or banner?

I was thinking more for the march to the ground then outside the ground before and after.  Could keep them all either in someone's car or Trust Office during the game if they wouldn't let us take them in.

Same with the chanting. It does create a really bad vibe for the players. But this has been dragging on for years now, isnt it better to sacrifice some support to try and get it over with?

Limping on to January and then having a fire sale, still with the current board is probably the second worst option after going bust in my opinion.

I think that deep down, most players would agree with us. Of course they can't say it, but when you listen to that Cheltenham player, & read what CR wrote they aren't exactly being critical of us are they.

Like I said before

these were the same players that nearly went on strike because the board could not pay them FFS

Does anyone honestly think they are going to get upset over a little chanting that is not even directed at them, and could be construed as actually supporting their plight.

The bleeding hearts need to get fucking real

Basically said that they are proffesionals, & things off the pitch don't affect them & hopefully the off the field things will get sorted.
