Hats off to all the fans today at the protest. Getting our voices heard that we want these parasites out of our club without anyone getting hurt or injured.

To their own players?
They haven’t even done anything, they are just there and loud and hopefully it remains violence free.
And yes, in other countries own players, the team buses etc. get blocked / delayed a lot by their own fans. Stam, Aguero, etc. have even mentioned how they can go to restaurants in England and do similar things with friends/family and stuff like that would never be possible without security or very exclusive areas in Italy or Argentina, etc.

Yes they should bend over, then say thanks aftwerwards.
Just stop.

Keep it outside, go fecking crazy out there.

Why break the law & potentially give the powers that be more ammunition to postpone / cancel the game?

There’s a common sense demarcation line here.

Fine with the protests as long as they're not violent or loutish. A certain degree of disruption is needed for the protests to be in any way effective.

Though thinking about it, the social media boycott this weekend probably makes this a less than ideal time for protests.

Fantastic stuff! Be good if they got the match postponed in terms of coverage. Although, also, daft timing given the social media blackout.

Obertans #1 fan.
Had to leave early because of a family commitment. However, I’ve just been down. It was calm, it was very well attended and it was a good laugh.

Exposure Exposure Exposure. It's needed
It would get plenty of exposure if the protests happened outside OT. There's a massive turn out! Blocking our own players from leaving and invading the pitch is not the answer. Looks like a lot are just there for the trouble.

Suspect that is the case with some of them I agree.

Also a perfect excuse for fans to enter OT and soak in what’s left (albeit illegally) after a terribly long hiatus

This is far more important than one game. Taking a stand, finally, against the leeches will be far more beneficial to the club in the long run. Whatever happens with the match today.
