I disagree Sandgrown.. Bromley are not a relegation rival

They are virtually mid table and 10 point above the bottom 2

At least the 1920 Union are doing something at all. Unlike you, you old melt. All you do is whinge and whine, you do nothing but moan on here about fans trying their best to get rid of an owner. You come and stand behind the goals and sing with the fans. Old fool. Maybe you are in leagues with the regime and Jason. RED ROBO GOT GO

That's unnecessary and not needed. All on here want to see this sorry saga finally draw to a close with a successful sale of the club.

Don't know who you are THEFACTSMAN but insulting a fan who as watched the club over 50 years is totally out of order and completely not needed

Can the people who run this site please delete the message

I'm fully behind the idea of trying to do something but not sure on this one. The protest against Port Vale really galvanized the fans into getting behind the team and this seemed to impact the players, we put in a decent performance and nearly got a result.

I'm not sure if I think a half empty halo will demoralise the players or if an influx or fans and noise on the 10th min might motivate them. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

The most important thing is that the players know what is happening and I'm sure they will be informed in advance.

Redrobo comments are ridiculous in my opinion. First of all everyone protesting has paid their money and are being asked to spend money behind the terrace in that 10 minutes.
On the Saturday that is known as the lowest attendances every year because of late Christmas shopping should not have their loyalty questioned.
Players know what's going on.
And as for questioning the board. We know they work hard but the suspended points deduction is on them.
Not the fans
Not Jason

Don’t know you and never met redrobo so I’m neutral but you are a complete arse with that comment, good old keyboard warrior :roll: Give you head a wobble then again it might fall off but it’ll be light as it must be bloody empty

I've been as vocal as anybody else on this forum about the need for Jason to do one.....

But I don't think that a protest in the form that is being discussed is necessary. If it was directed solely at the owner...no problem....but this protest sounds as though it's directed at both the owner and the BoDs which in my opinion is totally out of order....

By all means protest BUT channel it in the direction of the absent owner....you never know you might even see me (with my zimmerframe) at the head of that protest.... :lol:

If you read the 1920 Union social it clearly states everything about tomorrow and its definitely aimed at Jason.
His name needs to stay in the media because after the successful march we can't make the same mistakes as last time.
He went on talk sport and lied . It then went quiet for 3 months

Absolutely vital that the pressure remains on Twittingham which means sticking together. I wish him a very unhappy Christmas and have sent him a card to that effect. :evil:

Don't read the 1920 Social basically because I didn't even know there was one BUT credit and congrats to Hodgie for rhe superb food bank appeal.

Goes to show that at least on this topic we are ALL on the same page.

Well done.

I've been busy all day, so only just seeing this. Ordinarily, I would have deleted the personal attack on RedRobbo, and agree that it is totally uncalled for. Disagree by all means (and I frequently do disagree with RR!) but keep it away from being personal.

However, as RR has responded a couple of times in this thread, I'm going to leave it, otherwise the entire thread stops making sense. Thank you to the people who used the 'report' function.

I think it’s too early - we could still stay in league 2 and if we do, we shouldn’t be throwing the baby out with the bathwater. If one month from now we are dead and buried in the relegation places then you might get wider support for this.

If we manage to retain our Football League status, then I disagree with it, as we will face a tough enough challenge again next season.

HOWEVER...


If as is looking increasingly likely, we're relegated this season, then I agree 100%, as this will be the only way to cut out the cancer that is killing the club.

Let’s hope nothing happens on the operating table!! Removing something has to be done at the right time, to early and it’s how it affects you afterwards, to late and basically it will be to late. I will reserve my decision at the moment, but if you have read my posts in the past I have been vocal against this and similar sort of campaigns that have been floated, but I have changed my thinking somewhat and I would now say I’m on the fence. Not for it or against it, but I will give any good option a chance.

Would the National League accept us if we are in administration?

Didn't Boston get refused for that reason when they dropped out of the league?

I for one will still attend games next season home and away

I've watched this club for 44 years and I won't be stopping anytime soon

If fans want to boycott home games that's their choice and I have no issue with it

About time someone did something as at times it feels like our supporters have buried their heads in the sand and are happy to watch us die.

We can't even agree where to hold a meeting, if we should protest, if we are allowed balloons we are a joke. Other clubs would have numerous different ways of protesting and increasing the pressure week on week.

But never mind support the lads, keep the faith, trust the board and it will all be fine.

My only concern with this is that next season might be too late we might not have a club by then and then we will be sat here saying why didn't we do anything sooner.

The first thing that springs to mind is a trip to Jason's home town have a march through the town center on a busy Saturday morning on the way to his street.

Surely we could have arranged something on the way to an away game, or if they have a local non league team we could go to that game and while having a few beers in the town sing a few songs while passing through!! As maybe a full on march would need police permission.

I kind of like the idea of crowdfunding one of those airplane towed banners ( i seem to remember the club did one when barrow got promoted) over his domicile area ,problem is to be really effective , need to have is surname in it (could be any Jason) and a message so maybe not practicable? would certainly draw attention .

What would you want our owner to be doing now?
He should be the one leading from the front giving the fans the confidence that if we go down we'll be alright.
We should be planning for next season regardless of what league we are in.
Jim Bentley was at least allowed to offer contracts to our better players. We don't do that anymore.
We are gonna be in the same situation again of signing players that nobody wants.
Jason's will again be asking for an unrealistic price for a club that is losing its value day by day.
We will always have fans that will turn up but I think this boycott if happens is gonna shock a few people.
The club might think the 1920 Union are a joke.
I don't think they'll be laughing if nothing changes
