    You would be right to do so. Just like thousands of other Barnsley fans. That doesn't mean we aren't allowed an opinion just because we haven't got the owners on speed dial like you.

    No need to get aggressive or throw out slurs. Was just asking because I thought it would be something you’d be super keen to attend based on what you post on here.

    Never said you weren’t allowed an opinion.

    ******** Loko it's exactly what you were trying to do in the first place. Your passive aggressive response showed exactly what you were getting at as does a previous recent post of yours. You got the response that you deserved and I make no apology for it.

    It's been mentioned and well argued already that fan protests are very difficult to organise and maintain due to the nature of fans' loyalty to the club.
    For what its worth I'm simply not going anymore. I'm a tiny cog in the big machine but I just dont want to go anymore so I'm not. I'll review things in future.
    The club stinks with or without Mr Schopp.

    Variation on a theme to Gallys suggestion.
    Most of us are as empathetic towards the 20% as we are angry towards the 80%. Can't we all leave on 20 mins?

    Or at least all walk to the toilets, or concourse for a timeout.

    EDIT. I obviously didn't read @gordonottershaw s post well enough.
    20 mind it is then.

    my backs well dodgy these days. I may have to borrow my mums mobility scooter so will need advance warning and it’s a long way from the East Stand so will need snacks.

    I think peaceful occupation of the west stand would be a reasonable starting point.

    A full walk out on 20 minutes again count me in.

    For those who question what can you do. Look at the movement the Blackpool fans put together both effective and successful

    Think we need to be careful on any occupation of the West stsnd as presumably that would get the club fixed/lose points for failing to control their fans? A walkout on 20 mins would be good visually I reckon, particularly if there's sone chants before it and then folk leave. But it would need to be well supported else it would just look like folk have weak bladders!
