[JohnD]

How will the rotten eggs or stink bombs make a difference?

Hand Grenades.

In my eyes, anyone who steps inside that ground , that Saturday, is continuing to support the regime.

Let's officially make Ewood have an attendance of 0 home fans. They WILL get the message then.

I'm going to support the lads, not the owners doesn't wash anymore after today's crap. It's time for operation Empty Ewood. I've put these on Twitter if anyone wants to join my efforts: #WeWantOurRoversBack #EmptyEwood #VenkysOut

Lets have a party on the hill above the Riverside. Blackburn Ravers

Well im sorry but i intend to go. Youve got to go to the funeral of those youve been close to and say your last goodbye. Then thats it. You can grieve properly

I really understand where you are coming from but assuming you are a season ticket holder they already have your money. Surely it would be better to go and vent your spleen (which is my intention) for what might be the last opportunity for a while. If there is some spontaneous protest or action don't you want to be involved? I certainly do.

Fortunately I've only ever been to a couple of funerals and they were expected. Of course most people wouldn't compare funerals of relatives to a football club but grief isn't exactly anger. Fact of life unfortunately unless there's gonna be immortality in my lifetime and I damn sure wouldn't bet on it.

We shouldn't be in a position where there's any possibility of having to say goodbye to Rovers. 50 (maybe even 60 years from now) I might still be alive and damn sure won't want Rovers to be long gone. Of course there would be a new club formed no doubt but nobody wants to start from rock bottom. League 1 or League 2 is one thing...an entirely new club (similar name aside) is another.

I must admit I do think the funeral gear is a pretty good idea actually, if combined with another form of protest such as the one I suggested earlier. I reckon that would attract huge attention, especially if the game got abandoned.

[Proudtobeblue&white]

Yes, a wake, of enormous importance, I'm weighing up my dress.

That's a good one, get as many as possible stood on the hill. Cameras will pick it up, we need a banner as well.

Been speaking to a few tonight and looking around social media the amount who say they are jacking it in next season is pretty damning.

We wouldn't be allowed to take them into the ground, but there's nothing to stop us taking a load of gardening implements up onto the hill for this party, as if we, the fans, were all on gardening leave.

Well we may as well be, everyone else is!

[VinjayV4]

Venkys will probably be led to believe its a pro Keith Hill movement.

[BlueMonday]

We could all stand on t'hill with pitch forks looking like outraged villagers.

Anderson will be on the phone to Sky and they'll just pass us off on SSN as just a load of community payback tidying up the banking

On the Hill is a great way of getting stereo on the Protests, with 3/4 of the ground being able to see the Hill. Also allows those who do not want to go into the Ground to be counted.

We'd have to hand them out. When the rain started bucketing down v Huddersfield the entire Darwen End bolted for the exits much to the delight of the Huddersfield fans stood next to them who never flinched

Never seen owt like it !

I'm not a tough guy by any means but a bit of rain has never bothered me. Except if your pockets get soaked. Still in the Riverside, JW Upper and BE Upper (places I've sat since returning) its well covered

Might sit in the JW Lower against Reading but not totally decided just yet.

EDIT-Changed my mind I'm not paying £27 v Reading just to sit near the tunnel lol.

Why the hell can't I choose my exact seat on the plan? In some areas end seats aren't so freely available.

Get yourself in the Darwen End - unreserved seating.

Maybe but I know its supposed to be for singers though no doubt some are completely ignorant to that. Problem is I'm not interested in many of the usual chants.

I've sat there before of course (quite a lot actually) but back when it was reserved like everywhere else.

Suppose it will be the Riverside or BE lower for me then.
