Question Punishment for King/the club

I agree.....I came up with this idea in the shower this morning see what you think.

Geoffrey King is to be made to strip down to his underpants at the top of Pier Hill. He then must stuff bacon, cumberland sausages and maybe the odd steak down his pants.

Very much like the open top bus promotion parades of the past the fans could line the streets. I would expect a police corden may be nessecery.

At a pre-agreed time (Say 6pm) after the final home game of the season Geoff King has to run bare foot down Pier Hill and along the seafront. Exactly two mins (Gladiator style) after Geoff King starts running a pack of 431 dogs (A dog to represent each angry post on Shrimperzone) of varing sizes and breeds also start running. These dogs would not have been fed the night before so would be ravenous.

If Geoff King can get to a pre-dined point before the dogs then fair call. If he cannot then the dogs smelling the meaty snacks in King's briefs take revenge on our behalf leaving King in no uncertain terms about our upset over the poor stewarding arangements.

Thoughts please?

My only thought is...:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D:D
 
Boycott is a good idea actually, don't give the club any more money than the cost of your season ticket or matchday ticket. Don't go buying rubbish from the clubshop or 50/50 tickets etc. The club only care about money, so hit them where it hurts.
 
Here's my take on what his punishment should be;

Upon entry to the ground on the day of the cheltenham game, we should be given out free "items". Now these items could be, rotten tomatoes, old cabbages, potatoes, basically all the old crap they don't sell from the roots hall market, and king should be made to parade around the outside of the pitch in nothing but a pair of pants whilst singing TBV anthem, so we can pelt him with the items. Now of course if you really wanted to pay, then you could replace the rotten veg with other various items, including, darts, dog ****, roadkill or even yourself
 
make no mistake - this was a total ballsup by the club. However, they don't get everything worng - and the sight of builders on the new stadium site later this year will be a good healer!!

Great idea....Lets bring the club to its kness when they need us most....

Viva the Revolution.

Geoffery King is part of the RM 'Business Empire' and was bought in to make sure the 'Empire's' latest 'assett' (SUFC) are run on a 'business like' basis and to help push through their main objective, ie redevelopement of as much land as they can possibly get away with. So his outburst comes as no surprise to me. Now, providing all you guys are right and Mr King was wrong, it is a good time for Mr. Martin to pin his colours firmly to the flag and show he is 100% SUFC - by making a statement saying that he found GK's comments totally unacceptable and he would be removed from the Club immediately - dont hold your breath!!

Great idea. Run it past Dave Scriven and see if King is prepared to accept your terms. Given the circumstances I think it would be only right.

Reminded me of the "choose your own death" scene from this film:

Protest/boycott

Many people have suggested boycotting ALL sufc merchandise and also protesting outside of the ground after to let them know we won't take this crap lying down. Who else is intent on joinin us? This means ALL merchandise in the club shop, ALL food/drink, The 50/50 raffle crap, ANYTHING to do with sufc. Only the cost of the ticket. Afterall the team deserve a good send off, but the club need to learn the power of the fans voice. WE WON'T BE TREATED LIKE MUGS NO-MORE

Don't stop there mate, with your attitude if I was Ron Martin I would suggest you don't buy a season ticket at all. There's lots of other clubs that would kill for your support I'm sure.......

So his remit is to help run the club in a business-like fashion? And this property development company....they want to re-develop land?????

:stunned:
 
Something needs to be done and the fans shouldn't take the blame for what happened on saturday...
This club needs to get rid of dead wood, and KING & JOBSON are that.
 
LOL. i can't help it! it's the fact that once againt the fans have been crapped on!
 
Why don't we just inveil a big **** off banner in front of the west - right opposite the director's and corporate boxes.. that would hurt them.

You go ahead Junior, just don't get in my way when I pop in to renew my season card.
 
Have there been many other instances since Ron and co. took over where that has been the case?

The monumental balls up for the ticketing scheme for the man utd game. what a joke that was. My dad, a shrimper of over 40 years couldn't get a ticket, despite the promise of a ticket for attending the previous game
