Will boycotting games really get our colours and badge back.

Having a 1000 or even 2000 less ST holders next season boycotting games/not renewing will not make a difference to VT's vision to keep our club red. Yes we should protest but it needs to be vocally - marches/flags/scarves/singing but one of the biggest things we are failing at when it comes to match day is our voice in the ground. Every visiting club this season has ridiculed our support - it really is shit and does seem like a fooking library. I sit in the family stand with my two boys (11 & 8), they both raise their scarves @ 19:27 and sing whenever they can but the problem is with the whole ground is no one can keep it going. Why is it that at away games we can keep the singing going for 90 minutes (albeit pissed at the time) yet at our own fortress we can only sing for a few minutes at a time? This is where we can make the difference and we all know it. My 11 year old at every game this season asks me - "Dad, can we move seats so we can be in the other end, they sing more down there"... I will be renewing my ST's and will be moving from the family stand next season. We will make more of an impact and embarrass VT more by not boycotting games but singing pro blue songs for each of the 90 minutes and at every game not the odd spurt at 19:27 or when we are lucky enough to score but every single minute of each game. Away supporters are not scared to come to our City anymore, they see us as a joke because of Tan, let's get our voices heard and sing pro blue/anti Tan songs constantly. Is it really that difficult? Don't boycott games, let's just sing our f*cking Welsh voices out and he'll have no choice but to listen or leave our green and pleasant land once and for all!!

Rant over.......

Tan doesn't go to games any more so he won't hear a thing. Tan's been to CCS enough times, he's heard the "vincent tan you're a wanker" songs, he's seen the scarves, he's heard the boo's , he even got booed by the canton the night we got promoted, he is well aware how many of us feel, but lets not continue kidding ourselves, it simply isn't working.

Boycott now and don't renew until he's gone / we're back to blue, what ever you want. It's not easy, not as easy as wearing a scarf to a game and shouting to someone who's not even there to hear you anyway, but It's our only real chance.

That's why having 12-13k less season ticket holders will . Agree if it's only 1 or 2 k it's pointless . Tan won't show his face in Cardiff again imo so not sure doing anything on ground will have much effect . Unless it's proper full scale pitch invasions .
