Not massively looking forward to it tbh.
Was hoping to see some of Ashton's bridge building before now tbh, as it really needs something to take the edge off it.
Such an unbelievable own goal. |  |

people just want to watch a match and get ashton out.
you're not one to talk about over-reaction, you have a hissy fit every time the players misplace a pass, make the slightest mistake or we fail to win 5-0! hardly the greatest supporter, i'm surprised if you've ever wanted to watch an itfc match... [Post edited 1 Apr 18:24]

Been going for 50 years,so yes, I’ve watched a fair few matches. Probably before you were even born. There will be no trouble. People are hard behind their keyboards. Get them out away from their screens and they are very timid. Most won’t say boo to a goose. |  | | |

So 2500 out of the 28000 that will attend on Monday , even if you added say 10000 to your figure , probably even then to high , that very much is a minority …..yes ? |  | | |

"f#ck", "w*nker", and "moron" are a completely different level of offensive to "f#cktard" and you know it well Bloots. But merely being offensive within socially acceptable norms doesn't make you enough of an edge-lord bad-boy, though does it? Testosterone-signalling is a bit "pathetic" (to coin your lingo), no? | | | |

Just for the avoidance of doubt, my stand on Monday during the game is to park this and support the team.
I certainly won't be one looking to stir up aggro with anyone, and generally go out 9f my way to avoid confrontation anyway, I just fear that there will be enough in the stadium who will gladly stir things up.
I hope that those in here saying it'll all be fine are correct. | |

not saying there will be trouble, a few coked up stone islanders may be up for it, but no different to a usual day.
what i was arguing is that you can't call people out for over-reactions given your very frequent hissy fits here. do you enjoy going to watch itfc? | |

Yes. I’m debating not going as the first chorus of “stand up if you hate Reform” is going to cause stand up rows in the stands. “We want Ashton out” will be booed as soon as it happens.
I sit next to the away fans in the SAR lower and the Brum fans will have a field day with this, that alone will be intolerable. |
It will say as much about them if not more, than it does of us. My advice is, if it happens, totally ignore it, I'm betting that won't be the response they're expecting. |  | | |

I agree. Most people couldn’t give a monkeys even if they’ve heard or read about it. I’ve had a nose round a few other clubs’ forums - didn’t spot a mention. I was out Sunday with golfing chums two of which are quite mouthy that support West Ham and Spurs - no mention. Of my friends, Chelsea, Arsenal, Newcastle, Charlton, Leeds, Sunderland x2 - nothing.
That’s just my experience. And quite frankly, why should they be interested or care? I hardly care about Norwich’s drunken cook staggering about the pitch or what ghastly sponsor they lined up let alone what Birmingham supporters might think.
They live in the worst part of a rat infested city and are, supporter wise, down there with the dregs. Ever been to St Andrews? I have, years ago. Knuckledraggers. Made the old Den look pristine and occupied by choirboys and that was built on a rubbish tip.
Other supporters? I’m not interested. Our supporters and investors - very interested. A CEO that lied. Very very interested. But I won’t be on Monday and I’ll be very surprised if anyone around me mentions it.
I am going Monday for the team. My team who have done nothing wrong and the last thing I want to mix with that is talk about politicians (they can all be dropped in the sea in a weighted bag) and a CEO. |
Well said, Churchman ... let's get to the Premier League first and then worry about whether Ashton is the man for the job.
Supporters also forget that plenty of people don't give a damn about football, the majority of the UK in fact.
They really, really don't care about what happened last week.
And yes, I went to St Andrews in the late 90s when Dele Adebola scored the winner.
Hardly felt like a trip to the Ancient Agora of Athens. | | | |

Can fully support KM & players while calling for the removal of Ashton. Nothing "toxic" about preferring the club isn't run by a liar. Ashton is detached from the playing side. Most people want him gone. Don't forget nearly half the squad is an ethnic minority. Polling shows nearly 80% of whom **hate** reform. Phil's word from the players suggests they might even be relieved and supportive that we aren't letting this slide. [Post edited 1 Apr 10:42]

Sorry to burst your bubble but most people don’t “want him gone”! Accepted there’s a vocal group (especially online) who want Ashton hung drawn and quartered! However all Town fans I’ve spoken to (admittedly in the over 40 category) are of the opinion that last week was a bit of a PR balls up that’s been blown completely out of proportion, and that Aston has enough credit in the bank with the good job he’s done over the the last 4 years! | | | |

Yeah I think some on here are going to be bitterly disappointed when they realise the majority were pissed off, have gotten over it and are there to support their team on the pitch. If opposition want to sing about it, I couldn't care less. I'm not a little snowflake who gets insulted by any chants at football whether they are directed at me or not |  | | |

It will be fine as stated on here quite a few refuse to go so hopefully it will those that just want to get behind the lads and see them through to the end of a successful season.
The players want the backing and I’m sure we want promotion so why would anyone want to disrupt that on Monday. | | | |

We need to focus on the eleven on the pitch & support the team. I'm sure the Brummies will try to bait us, but let's leave any anti-Ashton or Farage chants until the game is (hopefully) secure. |  |

I honestly don't think there will be the problems with opposing fans that many are expecting.
They will be just as divided as us on the issue and any negative songs about Farage will just as likely cause disruption in their end as ours. | | | |

For the record I'm bald and slight overweight. So a chant of u fat basted might occur in certain situations | | | |

I got more messages from football fans I know about Farage visiting than the day we got promoted. |
I've been messaged by people I haven't seen in years, staggered and in some cases aghast at last week's events, some not Town fans, as well as people who read the site I've never met talking about the issue, a number from groups who would be more directly impacted by Reform policies. |  | | |

I hope you reporters come to some sort of consensus today / tomorrow when you interview Kieran. It is not his issue, so I think it is unfair to do what KOA suggested that you 'have to ask the questions to him', do you really have to ask him? We don't want to lose our manager.

he may well want the chance to say something about it if his players are as upset about it as twtd and koa say they are.
he may well not, in which case he has the option to straight bat it.
give him the opportunity, it won't make any difference to him staying or going | |
