Ipswich's Twitter page down from 170.6k to 170.4k in just one afternoon from a simple tweet.
Things turning very quickly, and the fans seem to be in unison with anger towards PL, ME and the club in general. |  |

I think you kind of missed the point with your intended actions and comment though
"So cancelling the ST would obviously mean you wouldn't have a chance of getting in on the ballot"
Supporters are on about boycotting everything ...matchdays , season tickets , merch etc
Don't think the ballot would even be an issue if those that are hell bent on hitting ME where it hurts are really that bothered about missing out on a ballot
I hope they have no more than a handful of fans to choose from !!
2 is too many !! |
Well no my point is people living through the current disaster of a year we have had just want to get back and watch football no matter what the position we are in which I completely understand.
These people may very rightfully look and think whats the point, we have stood up so many times, Marilyn (poorly timed), Keane, Jewell, McCarthy and look where it has got us. | |

The thing is though that if you are generally so unhappy about how things are at the club then you need to do a bit more than just unfollow them on twitter. They won't care that they have 200 fewer followers, it makes no difference. Refusing to put any further money into the club, however, especially if done at a scale does have an impact. If that's too much hardship for you then fair enough, everyone has to make their own decisions, but it then looks a bit tinpot to bang on about boycotting the club when all that really amounts to is clicking on 'unfollow' on twitter. |  |

There are 2 types of protests that can/would work.
1. People vote with their 'feet' 7 don't purchase iFollow, enter ballots for home games etc
2. A vocal/visual protest outside the ground on a matchday |
Would it not make more of a statement for fans to enter the ballots and then if selected, not turn up? | | | |

That would not be fair on people who genuinely want to go. |  |

I can see both sides, but that would dilute the impact and point of a boycott if the club are still getting 2,000 faces in? |  | | |

True - but we have no idea how many of the 9k odd season ticket holders *actually* want to boycott. | |

That is 0.1% of their Twitter followers.... |
If you check who "likes" and "follows" the clubs social media it's mostly bought likes and follows from like and follow farms you can buy on Google, so they probably just lost a huge chunk of the few legitimate followers they actually had leaving them with a ton of fakes, and non supporters who just follow all the clubs. |  |

It's 200 fans reacting in one afternoon from a random tweet sent out with a protest most individuals normally ignore [Post edited 4 Dec 2020 15:37]

And is having such an impact I literally wouldnt have known a thing about it had it not been posted about on here...that's how big a reaction it is...btw you do know Twitter regularly culls accounts in bulk so theres always churn with followers numbers | | | |

Not sure a twitter account losing 200 followers is going to have much impact to be honest.
People need to vote with their feet, cancel DD's, not buy iFollow, avoid buying any merch for Christmas etc. and importantly, advise the club as to why. The only way Evans will take note is when the business case is strong enough to get rid of Lambert. If 3,000 people cancel season tickets, that's broadly a £1m revenue hole next year. At that point it's probably more expensive to keep Lambert than get rid, assuming his pay out is capped. |
Pay on the gate customers depreciated by 2,500 - 3,000 approximately in MMs final season which prompted change. If this went that one step further and that many season ticket holders cancelled, I see no choice in following suit for Evans.
Too many folk will carry on regardless though, I’m sure. |  |
