PROTEST vs Brighton 2:30 in front of the west PLEASE TURN UP 16:23 - Jan 25 with 6581 views | danny1953 | Copy and pasted off Tangerine Knights facebook We have been asked to post the following information about a planned demonstration being organized by one fan that will take place before and during the home game against Brighton & Hove Albion on Saturday 31st January. Please note that this not a Tangerine Knights initiative, however as we always encourage fans to take action, we are posting this here for your information. Any further details we receive about this we will of course update as soon as we get it. ------------------------------------------- PROTEST AT THE BRIGHTON GAME, SATURDAY 31ST JANUARY In response to the latest goings on at Blackpool FC, texts and suing fans, in addition to the poor running of our club. I have decided to arrange the following demonstration to show our continued contempt and anger at the Oyston family. The basic plan is to meet outside the ground from around 2.30pm on 31st January Obviously OFF land owned by the club and without blocking public right of way. I plan to remain outside the ground for the full length of the Brighton match, this will be an indirect "boycott" as instead of paying to get in we will be outside. It will be a visual boycott, as obviously, we will be seen. I would like as many people to bring their own banners, scarves and other "Oyston Out" items. I am hoping for a good turn out as the date and time has been tweeted and re-tweeted many times to around 5-6k followers, I hope for between 5-10% turn out that would be amazing. I would like to thank everyone in advance for their support and interest in this demonstration. If we as fans can stick together through these bad times, when things finally improve we will have a loyal and connected fan-base, we will get to know each other and for some may even become friends. But more importantly, these visual and vocal demonstrations will place increasing pressure on the Oyston family. Thank you all once again. Lee | |

Thanks for taking the time and trouble to arrange this. I hope that all those refusing to go to games get out from Tesco and support you. I'll applaud your efforts before the game and after if you're still there, but I'll be in the ground during the match itself. | | | |

That's great that's all I ask of people just to help the numbers. I will be there both before AND after the match I am using this as a VISUAL boycott and therefore the entire game I will be out there at west stand. Thanks for your support. I hope your attending inside is rewarded with a performance for a change | | | |

Yeah I never expected so much interest if I am honest.. Tweets and RT's galre and people posting on about 6 fan sites Tangerine Knight FB support page. Also see BST Newsletter due out this week. So far people are bringing tangerine masks Oyston life size cut out, mega phone, Banners.... This should be good. BBC will be there to report it and Will Watt tells me there should be a report in the Gazette. Also I am still talking with Granada :) Thanks in advance to everyone! | | | |

thanks and as I say often, how people decide to back this is their own choice. I am not going to start getting on at people for going into the ground, not my business, it is just good to see so much support in what ever form. There is a god buzz about this. It has been all over Twitter for over 3 weeks, plus other sites including FB (Knights page) and lots of positives. I decided to organise this after the texts and suing f fans on top of the shambles of a majority shareholder and his family, Thank you all in advance the support has been immense :) | | | |

I have purchased three of the tangerine masks and am happy to sell two of them for £2-50 each. They are four pounds individually. If you would like one please send me a private message. I am expecting to pick them up on Thursday from argos | | | |

Well thanks. It is simply a case of understanding other peoples vies and respecting them. Just because this course of action was right for me, (now I know many others) does not make it right for everyone. That should be respected. Thanks again to everyone | | | |

Tejas is right. Treat people like adults and respect diversity of opinion and you'll double/treble the level of interest. As for me, I support your general aims and applaud the effort but, like others, will be going into the ground. | | | |

The effort put in has been great (from a lot of people who have helped) the suggestions I have had have been positive, this is going to be a good one. It's took some time and a little money (I would have only spent it on the Oystons so it feels better spent this way). Good numbers expected and new Ideas being tried. Hope people here can be as positive as on other social media and fan sites. Had support and backing from Knights, BST and others. As stated going in Gazette Friday, prior to demo, BBC SHOULD be there. Gazette sending photographer and almost certainly reporter . Everything has been positive and will make this one of the best demo/boycotts so far. | | | |

Well done Lee, the lack of support on here was not reflected in the numbers there today. Admirable of you to try your best on all the forums, regardless of their attitudes towards protestors or the oyston family. | | | |
