    Let your voices be heard. Get down to oakwell next Saturday V Bristol and let Conway/Lee know exactly how you feel. Half 1 at the ground. (Distanced peaceful protest)

    What a stupid thing to try and organise... Will you cancel if we sign 3 or 4 from English teams or go ahead and risk peoples health regardless?

    The damage as already been done. They are pulling the club to bits. No ones health would be at risk if they keep to distancing as stated. It’s out in the open and plenty of space to spread out. A lot safer than going for your weekly shop

    I'm up for that, My Charlton fan in-laws wonder why we're so passive whilst the soft Southerners @ the Addicks have let their voices be heard several times over the years.
    If Covid wasn't around I'd be chucking beanie bags on the pitch.
    ~Indeed in my younger Bees days we held a demo when they were going to be sold out to QPR. Showing my age there!!!!

    I’m all for protesting against these c( )nts, but not when there’s a deadly disease spreading at present and not while Conway is away devoting his precious time to that tinpot Belgian club they recently bought.

    Nobody's health would be at risk but there's a chance they would postpone the game, fine the club, and dock us points.

    How has the damage been done if we sign 3/4 players from the UK before the next game? How is that any different to us signing those same players yesterday?

    I think people need to calm down a little bit.

    Fame at last-he's been asked to pull the balls out for the Belgian Lottery.

    Do you have the confidence in them to sign the players we need to get us up the table?

    I think this is a terrible idea.

    Chances are any adverse consequences would fall on the club (fines, postponements, etc) rather than anyone the protest was aimed at. Additionally, I'm in a local lockdown area so can't currently visit my parents' house without breaking the law. Much as I love the club, I've got higher priorities for the limited freedoms available to use mid-pandemic.

    I don’t think we’ve ever had a fan base that does protests to be fair. Whenever things have got bad it seems the only way our fans show their displeasure is by staying away.

    Closest thing I've seen to a protest was during the defeat to Port Vale in the eight match losing run under LJ. Fans congregated in the corner between the Ponte End and the West Stand at Full-time "singing we want Johnson out".

    I think we'll get at least two through the door. Regardless of who we sign none of us know if they'll be who we need until we see them performing at Oakwell under the new Head Coach.

    I honestly think another three points from our opening four fixtures and we wouldn't be having these conversations. I blame Struber.

    There was a protest at back of West stand after one game may have been to get a manager out, cant remember who.
