Boycotting is an absolute joke. By boycotting anfield you are showing no support to the team Hicks would not care about ticket sales.

He would get an estimated 2.4 million through the gate if we sold out all the tickets. His intrest on the debt is more then that

Nope, i haven't bought a shirt for 2 years now.

As well as demonstrations you should also picket the official shop(s) and food/drink outlets in the stands (and official program sellers) to encourage other fans to hold back on buying anything until a new owner has been found. Fans will do this and it'll show an immediate drop in match day revenues which no bank will want to see. This way we can still support the team but drastically reduce revenues into Hicks' dirty mitts!

Give the rest of the board some hard evidence that revenues are going to be hard to come by to pay-off any potential investment banks that may help re-finanace.

The problem with boycotting is that it will only work if done in large numbers.  If not... it will look like we're not going to matches because of whats happening on the pitch.  There will still be fans, just not as many.

i agree, we've got to hit the shops, food outlets in the stadium, program sellers etc. Anything that brings match day revenue to the club.

Sales is all he cares about. He dont care if you carry around a banner with a "protest". Hicks is selling a product. If you stop buying that product the value of his business drops.

See this is what we have been up against all along, Picture this In the protest march last Sunday you had fans Bagged up full with goods from the clib shop , wearing the new shirt . brand spanking new scaves, and there walking in the march singing YANKS OUT, they have just give them at least 150 pound in the club shop, and this was not one fan this was quiet a few of them, You just look at them gobsmacked and wonder whats going on in there head
