How do you know? The media have picked up on marches and after game sit ins and banners and songs. I can't recall much comment on the physical fact that the ground is blue.
For gods sake, of course it's great that everyone is wearing blue, but everything helps, and I hope the pre Utd game protest is big, because if you care about our identity, you should be on it IMO.

If they were so serious about their beliefs then they wouldn't choose to do a march every so often, doing it once every 2 months just shows how passionate they are.
Their first march was against City which was our first home game in the top division for 50 years. The eye was on Cardiff so they did the march because of the exposure they would get.
Now, they are doing it against United which whenever United play the eye is on them. Thus meaning that the march would yet again get good exposure.
Marching every other week would get tedious and they wouldn't get the same expsoure against marching before Newcastle etc. I am not a support of BU but get some perspective.
I know why they are picking them matches to do the marches but if they were really serious they would attempt to do it every home game.
Why? It wouldn't get widespread attention that they want. The more that march the more attention that they get. As I said, people would get bored marching every other week so the numbers would drop and people wouldn't take it as serious.

Agree. They don't represent anyone but themselves (and even that is debatable with some of them!)![]()

Firstly, thats not clear as daylight at all.
Secondly, Bluebird37 is one person. What he says doesn't reflect the thousands of others anymore than what you say reflects everyone on AnnisAbraham.co.uk
If you want blue, why not just commend everyone that is working toward it in their own ways.
If you don't want blue, buy a train ticket to Bristol City and leave people who care to get on with it.
I don't mind if you don't give a toss about the bluebird on the badge or the colours or whatever. That's up to you. When you start slagging off others for no reason and putting them down for the crime of giving a shit, then I will criticise your viewpoint.

I'm sure their next one will be. What people need to understand is that to be taken seriously as a pressure group, people (and the media) need to know who you are. That really is very important, so in the early stages, it's crucial to get the name out there.
Going forward, it's less important as now, most people know what Bluebirds Unite is. I'm sure the next billboard would focus on other matters, focusing on blue etc,
