    The fact there has been absolutely no protests at the stadium or anywhere else tells you all you need to know sadly.

    People are too busy with their lives to organise protests etc. Too busy with work, shopping, feeding themselves and their families, doom scrolling the web, gawping at TikTok, watching TV etc to come together en masse for the kind of action required.

    Match days are the only chance. Both home and away. Sadly proper protesting either with our feet (not turning up) or with chants and turning backs etc will both likely have a detrimental effect on the team. They already look devoid of purpose this year and appear to be stressed.

    Add to that the massive wait for the first home game and you just know these sleekit * are going to just continue on as normal.

    Nothing but mass, angry protests every single game will have any effect in my eyes, but our support are too forgiving. It's like Stockholm Syndrome.

    I'm all for a protest BUT we still have a league to win and the last thing we want (now the window is closed) is to put our focus on the board at matches when our weakened team most needs our support and encouragement on the field.

    We are Celtic supporters faithful through and through...:ynwacelti

    A start would be using the fan media, supporters clubs etc to organise a rally or protest outside the stadium. On a weekend the day before a match or something.

    Most of us don't have the audience to get the word spread but this would be something at the very least. At the moment there's not a lot coming from our side either.

    If the support can unite on this then we could be a powerful force but I worry it'll just be a lot of words, banners and then once we win a few games again that'll be it. This needs to continue until the AGM at the absolute minimum.

    Any sort of boycott and they will just point to the justification of the rainy day fund.

    As much as I appreciate the sentiment of cancelling the hcts there will be someone picking up on general sale at a higher price

    That’s always the argument against mate. Unfortunately, the time has arrived. You can still support the team for 90 minutes whilst protesting outside the ground or with banners inside.

    They votes themselves as they control shares.

    There's enough ordinary/supporter shares out there, about 10% to force a EGM. The Celtic Trust is trying to campaign to help unite 'lost' family shares. It would be something and it would be uncomfortable for them to be held to account, publicly.

    True mate.
    I just think the sack the board chants can prove to be a hindrance to the players. As u say a before and or after protest would me the best outcome.

    The start is euro tickets, season tickets are already sold and money banked the next and only step is the remaining tickets, amongst my mates the talk is no more until change is made there must be at least 5/6k who think along they lines might not be enough but it's a start, a campaign needs to be done I'll help if anyone would lead and I'm sure more would contribute, the start needs to be now less talk more action

    Desmond, Linsdell Train, Chris Trainer and other investment firms who all have next to zero interest in football and the team other than the share price.

    See the thing with the money angle I am not even sure that works here. They haven’t invested their own cash to that large an extent and the share price has massively risen since they bought them.

    They would just cut spending even further, lower quality punts and loans to get wage bill down. It would literally take another team taking over the dominance of the league I believe to make them actually take notice as they didn’t really do that much other than the above when they couldn’t fill the stadium in the Delia days.

    Can't do anything until the window opens again that's a good few months away, what can they cut, Delia won 2 leagues and got sacked with dwindling crowds this time the dwindling crowns would be for the * running the club, I don't know what to do but something needs done and I think the euros tickets are a great start,

    Adidas is obviously a successful business, and any blip in their operations would attract attention with serious questions being asked, so, therefore, a complete boycott on all of their Celtic merchandise would have them demanding answers from the club, especially with Christmas not too far away

    Any old timers on here. We need to implement the organised sonic attack. That would scare the * outta them.
