Yep. Seen a lot on the Utd fan forums and fan channels. Organising a mass turn up. Also seen Gary Neville encouraging them to do so.

Gary Neville also encoraging them to boycot Sky too? The two faced rat.

But I digress .....

No, there are no official planned protests as we aren't anywhere like a Glaziers/ Hicks and Gillett scenario with Fenway.

The Union is crowdsourcing member opinion but nothing more right now.

That's the SOS latest-

Time for change: next steps.

It has been a tumultuous, sickening few days for us all. Spirit of Shankly have always asked for honesty, integrity and transparency from club owners FSG, but the arrogance and deception they have shown behind this money-grab is frightening. But not surprising.

We have noted John Henry’s apology, but this PR exercise is too little too late. These crocodile tears will not wash. Actions speak louder than ‘hollow’ words. Liverpool Football Club is not an American franchise, it is a community steeped in history and tradition.

The ‘future of football’ came crashing down in 48 hours because of the solidarity and outcry of ‘legacy’ fans across the country. This debacle must be a catalyst for real change, not an exercise in damage limitation.

Our owners have thrown everyone under the bus, supporters, manager, players and staff, and humiliated themselves through sheer greed and arrogance.

The hypocrisy of the Premier League and broadcasters has also been noted. They have never considered the fans in their own gold rush and have treated us with thinly disguised contempt over the years.

We need a fundamental change in football governance, one that is fair for the whole football pyramid, not just the rapacious elite. We need a model that promises equitable distribution of the vast amounts of money involved in the beautiful game, our game.

During this confusion UEFA have gladly portrayed themselves as the progressive force. Nothing could be further from the truth and their new Champions League format is a disgrace. One that must be resisted immediately.

We will be consulting with our members to gauge their opinion on our next steps.



They also refused to meet with the Prime Minister like the FSA and Arsenal supporters trust did down to him using it as publicity/ political stunt to say he was working with fans.
 
Pretty dumb for fans groups to campaign for changes then refuse meeting with the Prime Minister when government is the only entity that can realistically change the situation. We all know that spineless pimps from PL won't do a thing.

Lets reflect-

This is someone through the last year who has:-
- refused to provide food for kids in poverty
- oversaw the disastrous reaction to COVID with the second-highest death rate (I think Italy has just sadly passed us again) per 100 million in the World and the worst recession anywhere.
- wrote a S*n column just Tuesday, the day a new Hillsborough trial started
- was Editor of the Spectator when they wrote about Liverpool fans causing Hillsborough and being full of self-pity.
I could go on but we'd be here all week.

A political response is good to go along with fan protests and sponsor boycotts and they will happily will take part in cross-party meetings with sports ministers. But if you expect someone treating it purely as a publicity stunt so he can say he is working with supporters to garner favour among the electorate, aside from his connections to Murdoch and Sky profits, to do F all for ANYONE outside of his own self-interests then you are sadly aloof to how this shitshow rolls.

Soz abar the SOS for having morals and standards.

Boris Johnson is a ****. That is all.
 
Lad, none of that has anything to do with football. If you want something done you gotta work with people up top. Fans refusing the meeting just so they can pat themsvels on the back about how anti-establishment they are, thats just cutting off your nose to spite your face.
