Fans To Be Banned From Speaking?

The club have stated this evening that the pre match protest will not be allowed to go ahead. The one thing the statement does not specify is how they intend to stop it.

Presumably they must want to open the turnstiles 5 mins before kickoff or ban fans from speaking. Or maybe they think they can force fans into the concourse and put the shutters up until 2:55.

I guess they will be banning entry unless the fans are wearing earplugs and blindfolds next (to stop anyone seeing planes carrying banners going over the stadium)

Sorry OOJW your implication that we are some sort of Rollercoaster is misguiding others, its more of a logflume, Downhill all the way with no sign of us ever climbing up

I dont usually agree with Mark Lawrenson but he's spot on this time

"I was concerned to read that Blackburn are not going to allow their fans to protest before or during the game on Saturday, which is a very dangerous route to go down. If I was a fan and I wanted to protest, then I would. We are living in England and it is a free country - they should let their fans do what they want to do - why alienate your supporters when they are already unhappy? This will only make things worse."

You know you've hit rock bottom when Lawro starts making more sense than your owners

I'm surprised he didn't finish that with "so 3-1 to Venkys"...

There's a saying "when all else fails vote with your feet"

While Ewood still has fans supporting Rovers in there, the owners think they are behind/supporting the whole regime.

Here's an idea, turn up at 3.10pm. It'll be a statement at kick off! Also, purchase nothing before the game.

Have they banned chicken outfits, banners saying "chickens", "bunch of turkeys" or "we are stuffed"...

I'm not sure they'd get the subtlety with the play on worms...

Don't know if you'd get the worms to spell that out, they can be quite disobedient little so and so's If you can get them to line up properly then maybe.

Also they can be quite small so will be very subtle, United fans will spot it on the HD highlights
