I was sat with the wife in the Tesco carpark at the time, and insisted that before we splurged a load of cash on crap we didn't need, I listened to something that actually mattered to me. To be fair to her, she sat and listened too, and we both agreed you were excellent. Keep it up, and good luck to you. Dudley extra? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's really not sat there thinking well, we're bottom of the league and going down, but at least the fans are happy. He knows how we feel. More importantly he knows that a large proportion still line his pocket on a match day. He probably isn't interested in the slightest whether you walk out on minute 1 or 74, if you've bought a ticket. It's daft. Totally and utterly backwards. It's up for sale, unsurprisingly nobody wants it. There is nothing else that can be done. Churchillian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AValon Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 You wear your heart on your sleeve Mike and serious fair play for putting it out there. I could hear the emotion in your voice. We're down, we all pretty much know that, but we don't have to go with a whimper. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post TRO Posted February 20, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted February 20, 2016 There is absolutely no point in anyone saying........ there is no point. Apathy will kill us. Every bit of adverse publicity highlights the silence that these morons ( senior managers) hide behind. Any organisation with an ounce of self respect would come out and answer the critics.....Not hide in silence and hope it goes away. I have a hunch they haven't got a clue what to do....If that is the case it needs to be out in the open.....NO MORE DITHERING. 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post HanoiVillan Posted February 20, 2016 Popular Post Share Posted February 20, 2016 I just want to say 'thank you' to @MikeMcKenna for organising something and trying to get something going. Unfortunately, owing to personal financial circumstances, I can't join the walk out myself, but I wish you the best of luck, and congratulate you for putting your point across well in a difficult interview (thought it was good on both sides to be honest) - I've 'choked' on radio before, so I know it ain't easy. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maqroll Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Looks like this has been getting some buzz...I just hope it's either all or nobody. A few thousand walkouts won't make much of a statement. The white flag idea was a good one, too bad it didn't happen. Its just so sad all of this. Such a colossal waste, total negligence from Lerner, after such lofty promises. **** him and all his flunkies. Good luck with the walkout, I'll be with you in spirit.

Zatman Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 cheers Mike, sadly I didnt get to hear the interview but going from your posts on here I trust what you say and that your heart is in the right place, I think gradually in last few weeks and especially after Liverpool debacle that the media are starting to pick up on what shambles we are. Sadly before that it was just Collymore and Merson in media who were saying what was going on and casual fans arent going to trust them 2 no matter how truthful they were speaking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 Mike are you on Facebook, it may be useful to send a message to villa sites (moms, everything villa etc) telling them about it in detail and asking them to post. I have done, but obviously you'll know more details and can articulate the point more. The more attention this is given the better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCJonah Posted February 20, 2016 Share Posted February 20, 2016 (edited) I wasn't going to go villa park again this season. However after seeing this build momentum I'm more than happy to attend so I can walk out with the rest of you on 74 minutes. I may have missed it but what happens after we walk out? Any plans to all meet and chant Lerner's a word removed for the remaining 20 minutes? Edited February 20, 2016 by DCJonah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
