saying all this is grand but none of the board will ever look at this.the fans feelings are just ignored if there was someway in which we(ccfc fanbase) could convey our feelings about the club trhen they might listen.in fairness the supporters club is the only crowd who actually try this i think the only way anything the fans propose,and that will actually be listened to is to have an open forum reguarlly throughout the season with the board.just a suggestion
and you're damn right to! they should be chucked out-end of story. my point is that i and others have tackled people over this before, sometimes it works, sometimes you get a "what are you gonna do about it?" attitude, and at the end of the day, there IS nothing i can do about it, therefore it's up to stewards to deal with it.Quote:

the whole "IRA" debate had been done to death. bottom line is wherever the fields is sung, some people choose to shout that during it- it's a political belief. I don't have a problem with it, but i accept that it would be better kept out of football grounds.
