Just to highlight the discontent of the fans is it time for people to vote with their feet? You can do this in a variety of ways.
- Don't go to home games If you decide to go to matches
- Do not buy any food or drink inside the ground - Don't buy anything from the club shop - Don't buy a programme - Don't use the bookies inside the ground
If fans take part in any of the above it'll hit them where it hurts.
I know this has already been suggested but things are really begining to annoy me.

those boycotting would be precisely the ones the board would want to stay away.

This is a tough call.
I already don't do any of the subsidiary activities.....I'm not sure how many we could get.....I thinl the call would have to be for one game only.

I'm 50/50 at the moment, ive always said that nobody will stop me from going to support my team but the time has come when the other side of me is fed up with the crap most of us are being put through with the off field activities that not only ruined last seasons promotion but will also ruin any sort of success we have this season if current form is to go by.

But can they afford to lose more fans, they're already operating at a loss. I know the landlord of our local pub may wish that some of the locals found a new pub to drink in, but he knows that they're the ones who spend the money and business is business.

You won't get enough publicly willing to put their name to it. It's already happening in an unofficial manner, even if people won't say they are. Like me for example, not specifically staying away as such, as just can't be arsed to go anymore. I;ve got cash problems of my own and frankly the shit around the club makes it much less appealing. Breakfast for thw week or football on Saturday? grub is winning right now and I haven't felt the tinniest bit guilty for every game I;ve missed. The last 2 I've not even listened to on the radio either.
Sad I know, maybe I don't now hold claim to being a fan, but frankly that's 100% correct I think.

It could well be. I'm thinking about it, I'll be talking to the folks I go with later, but it's looking unlikely i'll be coming back anytime soon.

As has been said before, I think a lot of people already are staying away. After successive big wins we should have had at least 8000 last saturday.
The way I see it there doesnt seem to be enough people willing to fight for the club as it is without myself giving up. So Id rather keep going as I am.
As for merchandise, I havnt bought a program for 3 years because it was Dunwoody.

Whilst I appreciate people are upset etc, Nothing will stop me going to support the players on the pitch, They do deserve our support.

I have a season ticket I've already paid for and I want to see the team play. Thats why I got into football in the first place. It is a shame what has happened to mex and yeovil and I would hope that even if they dont go to home games which is understandable that they would still go to away games to watch the team.
