Ok, most of us are fed up with this sh!te, so we need to start doing something. This is your official TWTD protest ideas thread.
Idea 1: Bring peanuts with you on Saturday... and throw them on the pitch once we go 1-nil down. To symbolise the peanuts Evans invests in our team. |  |

Slight problem with that is that any sane Town fan will be in the pub pre-game. | |

Pre-game: ST holders and regular attendees, if they feel strongly enough, send Evans/Milne a letter with your customer number and full details of why you are apathetic/annoyed/bored. Again if they feel strongly enough make it very clear that the style of football and lack of investment leaves very little for the fans to enjoy and that you won't renew/attend regularly unless there is a new manager in place with competitive resources. Be polite, don't call him a **** and demand £20m, just point out that his strategy is not going to work and that 'competitive resources' doesn't mean competing with the relegated teams but enough money to give the new manager a realistic chance of finishing top 6. If enough people do this it will force Evans to change course, realise he can't do it and look to sell or continue down his current path with ticket sales plummeting. Might seem a harsh choice but the fans have been incredibly patient. Perhaps people could also point out that when the club gets an unexpected bonus like £8m profit on Mings it really shows an incredible lack of ambition not to reinvest it in the squad. That really did show us everything we needed to know.
During the game: No protest
After the game and the players have left the field: Sit in protest if protesters can agree on what they are protesting. If it's split between Evans and MM then it won't work. Again, on balance MM is doing a reasonable job with the resources available. One forum regular's reaction to MM's comments last night was 'Try getting in some decent defenders then you baffoon!!!!'. With what, magic beans? |  |

Think I'd rather stick with getting behind the team on Saturday and am hoping that now Huws, Smith, Webster and Adeyemi all returning and Cellina having an impact that we can be competitive again. |  | | |

By two bags. One for throwing, one for eating.
You've got to look at the bigger picture here Bellers. Yes, you'll be one bag of peanuts down. But you'll also be one step towards saving ITFC. | |

Evans will collect them all up and sell them back to you for £3.99 a packet as Portman Nuts. | |

The goalkeeper walks over to see what has landed on the pitch, gets too close and goes into anaphylactic shock. Unfortunately he had a nut allergy and you killed him.
You beast. |  |

Or we just get behind the team for 90mins hope sooner rather than later we have our full strength midfield available for a game first time this season and watch things improve.
Amazes me how players of all clubs have said this time and time that a toxic atmosphere helps nobody yet a few still seem to encourage want it. |  | | |

Throw haribos.
Still symbolic and can give the players an energy boost if they eat a few.
I didn't think you were in the MM out camp?

I'm veering towards it. I have my toes in but it's cold and I'm a bit scared about fully jumping in. | |

Not sure throwing peanuts on to the pitch is a good way of getting behind the team. The connotation is also that you pay peanuts and you get monkeys, i.e. the players are crap. |  |

What about waving white hankies Real Madrid style, as well as suiting the outers, the inners could claim that the hankies symbolise a liking for a good blub and other tissue/hanky uses - win-win. |  | | |

Just don't go.. Which is how I've been protesting for the most of this season so far.
We open ourselves to ridicule if we do some of the suggested ideas.. The issue isn't with how things are going results wise.. it's with the sheer mind numbing boredom of the 90 minutes we sit through.. So the obvious answer is to just not sit through it.
Things are not bad enough to be protesting the way Hull, Sunderland, Charlton etc. have been and not only will ME get the message, but you'll not get yourselves into a fit of rage every Saturday evening and have far less to moan about |  | | |
