To a suitable chant for those inside and out may I suggest:

LOGAN LOGAN LOGAN OUT OUT OUT!

Repeat and nauseum.

An effective form of protest would be for those in attendance to wear Paddy Jackson or Stu. Olding face masks. Imagine the sight of that on t.v. Fuqing priceless.

A half empty stadium is how we show our feelings Snipe. That is about the only protest our fellow supporters are comfortable with. I recall halfar$ed attempts to organise protests around Ruan’s enforced exile and it was weaker than watered Harp.
If Logan’s stadium is half empty, it will look terrible on TV and it will certainly demand comments from the media and Logan.
A few shirts thrown onto the pitch, a gathering under the clock, or a half ar$ed chant will get no publicity at all and Smugbake Logan will laugh his balls off . Publicity is how the feminists put the willies up the BOI and FIRFU. We should learn from them.
If I thought for a second someone could organise a meaningful protest inside Logan’s Stadium, I’d be right there at the forefront, but our supporters are a disparate band with comfortable lifestyles who haven’t the stomach for a fight.
Therefore the easiest thing they can do to send a message is to stay away.

I understand completely and fully respect your stance. You have every right to react as you see fit.
But here's my problem with that when I look at it logically. How many will actually stay away?
The posters here and the URSC are generally the most hard core loyal supporters of UR.
39 have said they are staying away on UAFC poll.
52 Supporters club members have indicated that they are staying away.
There's a maximum of 91 and how many of those are double counted? How many of them will like me change their position once they hear the player's pleas for support.
No matter what way you slice it, you're going to have a maximum of 100 holdouts. There is no consensus to stay away.
That 100 could raise a hell of a racket leading with "IRFU shame on you" in all parts of the ground.

That's my last word on this, each to their own.

They want the supporters to stick with the players and support them :red:

Going to support remaining players players. Won't go in until after ko.
Conflicted to be honest. Will not line their coffers with any more than their pound of flesh. No more food or drink, no more merch, no more UR Christmas prezzies.
That sumosam top is the last one I buy til the smug gobshìte is gone.
Don't have a BoI account. Finished with Bel Tel.

Haven’t the stomach to go.

Ulster are treated differently from the other provinces. Why? To me it is sectarian and therefore I cannot turn up, SUFTUM have the IRFU smirk at my continued toleration. When was the last time there was an International north of the border? Why was our talisman and national treasure binned when a journeyman like Nacewa was kept and talked about as the second coming? Why is spit roast specialist Connor Murray the BoI brand ambassador?

My stand will make no difference whatsoever but at least, if others are like me, it will show that the majority of fans aren’t sicophant Bellends.

Who knows, I might renew my ticket but there isn’t a chance in hell I will attend on Saturday.

The URSC want us to turn up for Tommy. FFS Tommy played his last meaningful game about two years ago. The players need us? We’ve turned up religiously all season to be served a pile of shyte. What about the players standing up for the fans and team mates?

The only thing I’ll miss is our gay anthem!

I am yet to decide.

If I don't go, will it be because I'm protesting or because I can't be asred with the whole cess pool?

If I'm protesting, what am I actually protesting about? If I can't be asred, why am I debating it?

If I go, I can't imagine I will be on the terrace at ko, but I doubt anyone will notice.
Can I come out from behind the sofa yet?

I know a lot of people are agonising over what is best (in terms of not abandoning the players etc) and I think that is all fair - but for me it's not even a tactical decision, as in the way I think will have most impact etc etc - I just literally feel nauseous at the thought of going to ravenhill again. I couldn't face it - standing with a pint, trying to pretend everything could get ok again.

doesn't mean anything but I responded to Ulster's email and asked to be removed from all of their distribution lists today.. won't make any difference, but I feel slightly less grubby
..one more thing

We will need more than one.

Also thinking about:

Bring back Jackson!
Bring back Jackson!
Bring back Jackson!
Bring back Jackson!

And/or

We want Olding!
We want Olding!
We want Olding!
We want Olding!

I am aware neither will happen but hopefully the message will get across that we are not happy with the outcome.
I have my own tv channel, what have you got?
