In a nutshell, at pains to point out it was nothing to do with the club and that the decision was made by him and others.

The topic was then shut down before Dan could reply.

Funnily enough, no mention of the other calendar entries!

To be fair he did give hunt five minutes at the start to make a thank you speech and take a bow. I’ve got to take issue with hunt’s assertion that those who don’t wear an orange hat are in his words, ‘happy with the rein of Morfuni’ that’s quite a divisive  thing to say imo.

Well, if that isn’t true - then why would you be against the reign of Morfuni & not wear an orange hat?

The protests are right there. You either agree with them or you don’t. No middle ground really.

It's perfectly possible just to want to wear your own hat, or to support a goal without visibly showing it - not wanting to argue with people near you who disagree perhaps.

There's always middle ground.

Personally I found the hat a bit tight on my clearly outsized bonce..

If you can't see what's happening to this club in the last few years then maybe you need to book an opticians appointment before worrying about an orange hat.

A pretty niche joke I made on twitter about Adam Hart and sim cards got 35 likes and I'm pretty sure that wouldn't have happened even a year ago. A lot of people have educated themselves in that time, even if many are willfully ignorant and like it that way.

There is a guy in our WhatsApp Group who left Scotland at 1am to make the protests and the game on Saturday. He was saying he was chatting to some people who were against the protest including some fella that seemed to think he was the world's greatest fan because he had left wherever he lived at 6am and was giving it the 'I'm so loyal blah blah'. Needless to say he was quickly put in his place.

Good old Craig.True(protesting) fan

It's all about the facts for me, can I wear orange underpants instead?

Serious question. What is it you're protesting about exactly?

What's been done, or not done, by the current owner that means them owning the club is unacceptable?

I keep reading the slightly disingenuous line that "it's not about the on pitch performance", but it clearly fucking is, unless we're expected to believe that the campaign starts up in earnest when we hit bottom of the league just by coincidence.

So tell me. What is it you want? Because the only demand I've seen "Sell now" is a nonsense unless you're looking to buy. Are you?

The information is pretty widely available across the Internet mate. Google it. Look at spirit of 69 socials. Better yet, read this thread properly. Don't see why it needs be spoonfed to you in a reply because you don't want to look for it or are being facetious.

There’s a very easy and straightforward answer. Do you want a club that involves a convicted drug money launderer, a convicted drug dealer once one of Britain’s Most Wanted and a convicted wife beater. We’ve had numerous lies told. But even if this wasn’t the case the people running the club are completely incompetent.

It really makes no difference if we’re fighting relegation or up amongst the play off teams.

I want a club to be proud of.

I think when you say 'not about on pitch performance' its more 'not directly about on pitch performance'.

The fact that we are shit on the pitch is largely because of the off the field shambles, it's not a totally unrelated coincidence. Well run clubs (more often than not) win more games of football than shambolically run ones. Always exceptions (hi Crawley) but not very many.

For me It's totally about direction of travel on the pitch, because of the shambles off of if.

Holloway may be an effective sticky plaster, but there's been no change behind the scenes. He is just a sicky plaster.

There is a clear danger the club could go down to the cesspit that is non league.

Spirit of 69 clearly stated if we win 10 games in a row, it doesn't change needing change off the pitch, but you still get fuckwits posting gloating posts on Facebook because we won.

It's fucking painful people that stupid exist and that we're unfortunate enough that they support swindon so we have to see their fucking asinine comments.
