gnasher16 31,579 Posted yesterday at 11:11 Report Share Posted yesterday at 11:11 Im not sure this protest will get as many people as folk think......maybe it was the only available date but its asking a lot from football lads with a day of fixtures like this ! West Ham v Spurs Millwall v Charlton Man Utd v Man City Southampton v Pompey Plod are certainly in for a busy day on Saturday ! 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Is anyone from the Birmingham ish area going , that I could tag along with , so that I don't end up lost and sleeping rough in London. I know years ago a lot of Northern or Midlands footie mobs would drive down the M1 to Chesham,park up and get on the Metropolitan Line which will take you right into the heart of London i think it used to end up at either Liverpool St or Aldgate. Birmingham to Chesham is what 2 hours,then half hour/40 mins on the tube. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I had no intention going down for a ruck , I just wanted to stand up and be counted. I was looking at the best way to travel last night , and the surest way of getting there and back , was a 6 hour night journey on a coach , but I've just had a conversation with my lad , and he said , for fucks sake don't get on one of those coaches , because he sees them leaving for London, and they're filled with the other lot. It would be a bit of an uncomfortable six hours , me with a st George's cross draped over my shoulders , and fifty of the other lot wearing wooly hands and sandals , and eating f***ing lentil bread. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Checked out the website yesterday when I heard they had hit the target, they were still offering membership at a reduced rate so yep paid my tenner They could see a surge in memberships after Saturday ??? At this time I will still be voting Reform though, get back to me in 3 months and I may have changed my mind. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
