Good news. The only chance of success is if all groups get together.

February the 10th would be ideal, maybe we could demonstrate against both clubs in unison. Working on a banner, no doubt it'll cause infighting and ejection but couldn't give a shit.

Judgement day will arrive when it's time to renew season tickets. That will be the best time to get our message across once and for all. I will take part in any planned marches (although nothing inside the stadium as I refuse to set foot in there), but I doubt if they will do much more than remind everyone how we feel, can't see Tan losing much sleep over it.

And whilst all these protests are going on during those months, don't renew youre season tickets. Double whammy for Tan to think about!

What have Brighton fans got to protest about that would link in with Cardiff protesting about the grotesque rebranding of the club?

I'm willing to back anything but to guarantee large numbers a lot of thought has to go into these protests.

Sound familiar?
Our club is a shambles and we're in a worse state than you. We're in Cardiff in February and I'll be showing my/our disgust and as you've got problems then it'll show two clubs that they're taking us for mugs and we'll not tolerate it any longer.
Paul Barber is ruing our club just like you owner with the re-brand, and it's the way he's done it. As others (BHA) have said, the club's completely lost its soul with its customer-first fans-later approach. I've never seen so much general apathy among Albion fans, even through the Withdean years. And I don't view his condescending emails with their corporate spin defending his actions as listing to fans.
He's also priced-out many loyal or young fans with the ridiculously high match-day tickets and other match-day products (and tries to make you feel as though you're a bad fan if you don't want to pay over four quid for an often average pie If they have any in stock that is!) He may have increased revenue in the short-term but watch revenue erode away when swaths of season-ticket holders cancel at the end of the season.
Barber wants to treat us as customers (how much does it cost if you want to replace a lost season-ticket?), we'll treat the Albion as any other business. If they provide a poor quality, overpriced 'match-day experience', then we'll simply take our business elsewhere to the many other offerings Sussex has.
But he's taken us for fools, People only need to see his programme notes to see how he is skilled at telling us what we want to hear - but the proof is in the pudding.
Tan is the same, a f*cking idoit.

As Annis has stated above there were plans for a press release to go public tomorrow and all fan groups have been speaking over the last few weeks and a plan of action has been finalised and the plan now is that it will be announced next week.

Seriously? You think that's worse than what we're dealing with? Brighton aren't the only club having problems with ticket prices and poor match day experiences, and I highly doubt you lot would be complaining as much if you were getting good results...

Join the protest
All fans should make a stand.
It's the uk national sport.
Not a set of racing cars for rich tax dodgers.
We want our clubs back

A few hundred kids performing singing anti tan songs isn't going to do a dot.....been there, local fence sitting media only
Lazy but influential hacks sitting in london being given a free pop at Tan, manna from heaven. They are still hurting over backing malky then finding they totally got it wrong.
Cardiff City fans protesting by not renewing discounted season tickets falling from 17K to 7K would be "good safe news"
No need to protest in the FA cup, Friday night and lower league will be the excuse.

Think that probably applies to us as well - not many protests last 2 years when we were getting promoted and then in Premier - if we were playing well and top of the league i very much doubt if we would be protesting much now either

Are you seriously comparing our rebrand to over priced tickets and pies?...

How do you know this?
And if they have chosen not to go to the games then wouldn't this be the ultimate sacrifice for an attempt to get rid of the rebrand?
