Any more?
Apparently there was about 300 to 350 on the march and a couple of hundred more at the ground too.

That feels about right. March had a really good turnout, statue park bit too but people drifted away to get food. Main learning point was get a better megaphone, nobody could really hear much despite Ivo doing his absolute best.

Megaphone Megafail. OB reckon a high watermark of 600. 350-400 marching. Will post properly later but very very grateful.

I missed out today but it looked good from what I've seen. Anything for new years day or too many folk hungover?
Crewe on the 11th might be better.

Seems like 90% of orange hats wearers were in Don Rogers Stand today. I guess when you reach 65, you are transferred to the Arkells by default.

For all the fucking idiots who think negativity of a protest gets to the team and thinks we should just eat a money laundered shit sandwich and not worry about things off the pitch, I actually think The Spirit of 69 might have saved our season and here is why.
An official protest agreed to support the team on the pitch and give an outlet to these problems before the game and support the team from 3pm. Its managed to separate the two and we've got a result.
Who knows, maybe I'm talking bollocks and the fans didn't have as much of a part to play, but I think seperating the two and acknowledging the issues off the pitch on a wide scale for the fans that are frustrated to it, I think its actually helped and kept the two issues separate.

It was great to let off some steam today. Great to see people turn out in such numbers. Great to see that people still care. It’s just the start, as they have said, but it was an excellent start. If we can schedule the marches around Ivo Graham’s schedule, even better. A ringleader was needed, perhaps with a megaphone next time. He was also excellent. Thank you to all of you who organised things.
As for the match, much better again, and similar to Fleetwood in terms of the player’s commitment. I thought Smith was very good taking down the balls over the top, and bringing others into the match. It wasn’t pretty, but in those conditions, it did the job.
And for those that think protesting creates negativity inside the ground, you have proof today that it doesn’t.
I see Holloway has now said that he doesn’t approve of the protest. He’s all for passion as long as it aligns with his ignorant, narrow-minded view of the world. And his employer’s.

Harsh on Holloway - just because he has a different opinion to you? Doesn’t that make you ignorant and narrow minded? Ps I wore an orange hat but can see both sides. It’s almost as if the win didn’t go to script for some people.
