Would our fans ever stage a boycott

As we're unlikely to see terraces again at football, this is the virtual equivalent where you can chat to your hearts content about all football matters and, obviously, Arsenal in particular. This forum encourages all Gooners to visit and contribute so please keep it respectful, clean and topical.

What to do :hmmthink:
That is the sad thing about football in this country. So what the die-hard fans, the ones who follow the club home and away for years, through thick and thin, decided they're not happy with the club and don't go and watch as a protest, so many tourists/JCLs will be willing to take their place :banghead: :banghead: :banghead:

Rather than a protest outside the ground or a boycott I think a stand in for 15mins or so after the game would work much better. The way the stadium is layed out we can all walk round to any part of the ground so why not all stay in for 15mins or so opposite the Diamond Club area and let them know we arent happy.

Only problem I have is that although we all seem to agree something is not right at the club at the moment everybody has their different opinions on who to blame and I am worried it would just get confused.

I am all for a protest on ticket prices though because I'll be damned if I am paying £1,000 again next year to watch this sh*t.

Exactly, it's just fucking pathetic.
I say we all stop buying their over priced shit in the stadium anyway. £10 for a tea spoon of coke you can fuck right off.

Rocky Number Seven has a good point.

Any protest referred to on here is in relation to a hike in ticket prices. So, clearly the board would be at fault.
