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

Well done Lee, the best protest yet. Oyston disgraced himself again with "that" number plate. I spoke to some stewards and even they think he's going too 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.
Nice little dig there. Unnecessary given that close to 1000 people have read what's going on.
Before the game I would have said that maybe 800-900 were outside, joined by substantial numbers calling in as they went into the ground. At one stage I thought they were getting into the West Reception but were just held out. Oyston was brazen in drawing the blinds back to get a full view. He really can't help himself in antagonising.
Friends of mine made a 180 mile round trip only to stay outside. Not sure I could do that, but I admire the resolve.

GREAT SUPPORT FROM THE BRIGHTON FANS THANK YOU!!
OYSTON OUT!!
We were probably one notch away from breaking the reception defences. It only needed an extra notch of tension and it would have been all out chaos upstairs in the demons lair. I'm quite glad we didn't though as I was getting caught up in the tension and possibly that extra step would have led to serious activities and arrests...
It was a bl00dy rush though. Couldn't breathe when the smoke bomb went off. Had to come home for an afternoon nap after once the adrenaline subsided
