0742 Posted January 29, 2021 Share Posted January 29, 2021 The man is an odious liar, any attempt to shame him will likely result in a severe reaction from him. If we try and shame him out of the club he will be spiteful and think nothing of sinking the club to get at the fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SolihullOwl79 Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Via a properly orchestrated Twitter and Social Media campaign given that Since November 2020 the government has banned protests during Lockdowns. If a large proportion of Wednesdayites use Twitter as a platform we can bring the National media to focus it's attention on our Club and cause Chansiri some severe discomfort. Targeted Tweets at ex footballers and sports stars etc in the media with a platform who have known or likely high regard for our club. Those who are active on Twitter. Michael Vaughan, Gary Lineker, Mark Bright, Chrissy Waddle, David Garrido, Alan Shearer, Stan Collymore, Robbie Savage. You get the jist. If enough people start to tweet directly to them about The Wednesday, they'll take notice. They're human. They have voices. It may end up a feature spot on Football Focus, Soccer Am or 5 live etc. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
helmut_rooster Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 Pay for the cardboard cut outs (brings in a bit of revenue) ask the club to put them on springs outside the ground and play tape (a 90 should do it) of boos! With a nice video of the black balloon protests. Plant a few swing ball sets attach club scarves and hope the wind blows. Gnomes.....f***** gnomes club shop branded only....post them back to the club with "chansiri art" scrolled on the back. It's a pleasure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musn't Grumble Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 The only thing you can do is to "hit him in the pocket" but this is increasingly unlikely as he has already hit many season ticket holders in the pocket first. He's sort of got his retaliation in before the fans can take any action in the first place. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swfcAH Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 How about Merch? Get the Chansiri out flag printed on T shirts, Mugs, Car Bumper stickers etc etc, Then use the proceeds to fund the Media campaign. Could all wear the T shirts to the first home game we're allowed back. Presuming the clubs still functioning by that point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not tarring, as it wasn't meant to be a criticism, but ultimately the only "vote" any fan has is the money he/she puts into the club. When all is said and done, buying season tickets indicates loyalty and good faith. It's that which angers me, because Chansiri has abused that in my opinion.

Jim Posted January 30, 2021 Share Posted January 30, 2021 10 hours ago, SallyCinnamon said: The problem is with Wednesday any talk of protest always gets laughed at by certain sections of the fanbase and never gets taken seriously. When all it is is hurting fans doing what they can to show their displeasure. If you don’t want to join in that’s fine, but don’t mock other fans for wanting to get their voice heard. My suggestion would be a boycott on ifollow. Social media blackout during a matchday. Be difficult to organise but it’s just a suggestion. Will probably get laughed at that but there you go. Thing is when the time comes for fans to enter stadiums again, no one will want to go. Then and only then will DC see how disenchanted the fan base have become? I think the landscape of our football club is on the brink of changing forever if it hasn’t already? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
