I'm not against a march; I think a properly organised event could do a lot for the future of the club and bring wider publicity of the situation; that said few outside the Stanley fold will be interested and there is all to often a negative element that will seek to disrupt such positive moves.

Organisation is the key and if it means delaying matters you should. This could be an arm for good if you can get the numbers marching and the people of the town on side. I've seem a post on Face book and a few posts on here; just an handful of people. Maybe a better option is to plan, organise and communicate with everyone possible and have a major controlled event with the blessing of the Police and the Council.

You could gain larger numbers; plus the non aligned towns folk walking in support; you could have more banners and flags available; you could have the support of local Brass, Pipe or Drum Bands walking in support; bring more people out to watch, TV and a sympathetic local press giving good positive headlines that could bring wider press attention.

Added benefit may include a larger gate on the day. What about after the March; why not demonstrate peacefully inside the ground, use T Shirts to get the message across without compromising the team; give thunderous support to the lads on the pitch and then turn your backs on the Directors Box at half time everyone displaying the message very clearly to the root cause that its time to go.

Don't boycott the Game, don't seek confrontation or permit agitation. Carry the people and the town's authorities with us and this can have a power of its own.

I think Stewards would be a good idea on the day and clearing up our own mess on the way.
