What do you think fans should do instead? I'd love to see some alternatives.
Fans who were against today's protests
- Thread starter Spoony
- Start date
Not enter OT or prevent the team from leaving the hotel and ruin my afternoon
How do fans drive a stronger message?? I'm not going to be facetious I would genuinely like to know.
This was a huge win for the fans, better than beating the Scousers. See the bigger picture.
Your afternoon, or mine, is so inconsequential in the grand scheme, though, isn't it?
No protest works without causing disruption. It's absolutely necessary.
I'm sure we're all going to get over not being able to watch a football match.
Hashtags. And scarves.
Buy the club
It's been a great excuse to get make hay with the 'ignore' function.
Turn the caf green and gold
I have no issue with the protest. I have an issue with breaking into OT. It’s a sterile environment due to covid regs etc. and it’s just unnecessary. It’s not going to make the glazers sell up; and in the scheme of things there are worse owners.
I've thought about a collection fund. Although it seems a tad mental when there's folk living in abject poverty needing the same cash.
Become better consumers.
And this right here is the pathetic mindset that has the world the way it is today...
i’m not buying any more windows.
There is no alternatives as Glazers started this war by planning to ship the club to another league. The violence could be avoided without their clear intervention in football matters.
Now they'll love the media if they try and spin it on supporters.

and i’ve shattered any existing ones i have.
Bit short-sighted in my opinion.
How many of our afternoons have been ruined by bad performances - a result of the Glazers' debts and inadequate planning?
Not sure what’s pathetic about it really? I planned my day around watching this game. These pricks have ruined my afternoon/evening.
White house petition
Find someone that they actually like willing to put together £3bn or so to buy the club, or any other viable solution to the problem.
It’s quite clear Glazers will not just write off a £3bn+ assets because of a few hundred people storming the stadium.
I just struggle to understand what the actual message and expectation is. With every protest there is supposed to be a clear expectation of a certain action, I fail to see what it is here. It’s ‘we hate you and we want you out’ but without really presenting how this is supposed to happen and what is the end product. Would us being taken over by Saudis be fine? By any other ownership group?

I can only assume you’re a neutral
Yep, ive seen this so much this afternoon.
Revolution needs a starting point. I hate this whole mentality 'this wont change anything'. Nothing like the desired outcome happens in one day or one night. But its got a good start point now.
Look... more flares, fireworks, burning and looting blasting from massive speakers - that's what we need.
Nothing to do with Glazers’ debts. When the debt was actually an issue we won the league three seasons in a row.
Bigger picture. Glazers ruined your past decade.
I’ve said what needs to be done if you want something to change. Buy shares in the club, they are for sale.
I am in favour of the protests - but not targeting players or going onto the pitch.. What’s the goal? Genuine question. It can’t just be glazers out as that doesn’t solve the deeper issue of fans having a say in the running of their clubs. What would be our perfect owners? Until we agree on that the answer to what can we do is impossible to know.
Dry your eyes mate.
Fans were spot on. It’s got people talking. The movement needs to keep on.
If only there was a simple answer to this

Not sure if this is a joke or not. I assume it is, and if its not, then maybe its best we dont engage because you clearly are trolling or ignorant on this whole thing.
So this is all about on the pitch performance then? If we’d bought better everything would be fine?
You'll get over it
Not against the movement. I’m against the method.
Boycott home games. Only way to hurt them.
already have. Just like I’ve accepted that football isn’t actually for the fans and hasn’t been for about 30 years.
The last eight years have had nothing to do with the complete lack of investment during the years prior to it?
The stadium might not have been so easy to breach had they not left it to stagnate for so long.
Can you honestly not see anything beyond your weekend entertainment being ruined? Or is this a wum? I hope it's a wum. You should say it's a wum.
Are you being serious? Short sighted. Bet you’ll whinge about glazers without doing a thing.
I'd love to see that be productive enough to work. Unfortunately I don't think those who care enough can make enough of an impact with enough people ready to take their place.
I would really love to be wrong.
