Protest 14:04 - Mar 27 with 1279 viewsfivetoesperalta

If we genuinely want to display our displeasure at this week’s events at the Birmingham game, may I suggest entering the ground five minutes after kick off and then loudly getting behind the team, in unison, ten minutes in.

Surely it’s been made clear enough by now how this event is felt by fans?

Delaying entry, protesting, whatever you want to call it, is just dragging it on when most folk want politics left out of football and to get back to focussing on the team and promotion?

Why not a positive 'protest' about us as fans and (hopefully) as a club being anti-fascist or anti-racist? Surely no one could be against such a movement, shirley?

The 10th minute is the obvious the time to do something - but what?

Turn our back on the pitch for a minute? Sing a particular song?

Support the team as normal. Then after the game, when the final Town player has left the pitch start the protest.

People will say this is more important than football, and it is, but let's remember the players, manager and coaching staff did not have any part in this. Our captain has admitted to feeling the pressure. Let's not add to it. Let's not make their job any harder.

Truly impaired.

Agree supporters need to act and entering later is a good idea.

If you haven’t realised, the bulk of the fan (and employee) discontent is not political anymore but directed towards the dishonesty and gaslighting by Ashton & Co

I hope he gets sacked before the Brum game though, will save everyone a lot of trouble

Whoooa, no protest should effect team or manager who are appalled on 16:22 - Mar 27 with 939 viewsunstableblue

… at Farage visit.

So any protest must not affect the players. So entering stadium late and absolute no no.

A rousing NFIAW at 10mins is the option surely?

Why do some people always want to do a protest when not needed , it’s people like you that seem to want to keep this is the limelight.
I will support the lads on the pitch from the first whistle if that’s ok with you .

We have a CEO who has damaged our club.

Players are upset and distracted.
Fans are divided and angry.
Sponsors are p*ssed off and future sponsorships could be impacted.
Player recruitment will be harder after this week.

So maybe the question should be why do you think we should stand by and pretend everything is fine with our club when a key employee has been proven to be incompetent, dishonest, divisive and damaging to our club?

Do you not want our club to get better? Cos I do, I can't see how that happens with Mark Ashton remaining in post.

I think if people really want to protest it should NOT be done during the match, go and stand outside PR with banners, but don’t create a toxic environment on match day. Some of the suggestions are not productive at all, and frankly hypocritical just suggesting them… No, it’s not the clubs finest hour by any stretch, but support the team, any protest chants should be drowned out by a rally of ‘blue army’ … The end of the first half against Millwall ‘oh when the town’… that’s what I want … that’s Ipswich… Keep politics out of football please, let’s not feed this anymore

This is such a bad idea (in my opinion). We'd be a laughing stock around the country for it. Quite literally hurting the team in supporting a promotion push, they deserve better. Sheffield Wednesday done it but look how they were treated by that maniac.

Also do you really think 28k are going to follow this lead?

And cause even more divide?

While on here it might seem most, think Farage is the devil, the reality is he is polling at 20-30%. I dare say that number is higher in the demographic of football fans. For example, to my surprise “Kier Starmer is a Wan…” was randomly sung pretty loudly at Derby away….

So what’s going to happen when half the fanbase protest and the others don’t?

I think enough has already been demonstrated to show frustration. Mark will know he messed up.

We should do what mark didn’t do and keep politics out of football. People go to Portman Road to for football tribalism, not political tribalism. Let’s get behind the team.

"just dragging it on" - isn't up to us. It'll be dragged on by every set of oppo supporters. It's still the talk of the Championship nearly a week on. Check the Reddit Champ home page today: https://www.reddit.com/r/Champ

The best way to close from our side, is to remove the guy who politicised ITFC and lied about it. You can't brush this under the carpet, say "sorry if you're offended", and hope for the best. We need to remove the guy who made us look like Reform FC otherwise there will always be the grain of truth that we actually are.

Brilliant idea. Great link to the club's history pre Ashton nonsense.

Something has to be done.

This, absolutely this.

Just because the great and good of TWTD feel strongly about something, IT DOESNT MEAN THE REST OF SOCIETY FEELS THE SAME.

Why is this so bloody hard to understand to you lot, on the face of it most of you seem pretty intelligent people. I just dont get it
