Its the fans tbh. They keep pumping money into Levy's pockets whilst complaining that nothing changes. Only way it all stops is when the fans wake up but lets be honest that will never happen.
It's like asking addicts to demand higher standards from the cartels or withhold their custom.

The one thing I can’t understand is the seemingly hundreds/ thousands of fans who on here ,Twitter ,Instagram ect want nothing more than levy to go. Yet come Saturday when another protests happens outside the stadium there’ll probably be 80 people there.
He’s under very little pressure at the moment bar 1 or 2 chants a game , and until that changes he’ll be staying here doing what he does best (worst).

Agree with this but obviously it's something Levy is aware of and ruthlessly exploits. He will just see inelastic demand as a massive upside of running a football club and to be fair to the fans they are just doing what supporters are supposed to do, ie support the club through thick and thin.

I do agree though that the only way to change anything is to hit ENIC in their pockets, just don't see it happening unfortunately. Not the the extent needed to make a real difference anyway.

Probably being hopelessly naive but surely there has to be an element of pride for Levy? Can he not in any way be embarrassed about how shite this is?
He must know it’s all going tits up, but he’s deluded into thinking he can sort everything out.
He has to be removed from above (Lewis) or by intense fan pressure, I don’t think he’ll ever step down otherwise.
I think there’s echos of the end of Wenger at the scum, this situation is what happens when someone is in power for too long.

That’s because the vast majority of fans don’t go to games.

Honestly on match days you get odd looks signing Levy out etc.

West Ham, Manchester United and Arsenal have all had bigger protests. Ours have been limp. Think that might start to change though.

We are fucked while this helmet is in charge, I’m telling you we have a lot further to sink and there is nothing any of us can do about it

No proper fan is going to give up his season ticket as a weird form of protest and I personally think it's ridiculous to ask that of people.
I don't have a season ticket but I'd love to be in the position to have one, and there's no way I'd give it up in a futile attempt to hurt Levy.

Anyone who doesn't understand why a ST holder doesn't want to give up their seat...well, is a bit of an idiot to be honest.

Some ST's have been held for generations, who the hell would expect people to give that up? They may as well be asking you to stop supporting our club.

Fans make this club what it is, fuck letting Levy ruin that as well.

Are you being serious with this?

Do you have a season ticket?
Yes I'm being serious, and no I do not. If you (not you specifically) want to renew, you're supporting Levy and the regime.

I've had membership back in WHL days for few years went to every home game whilst I did obviously nothing special as a ST but i'm not just saying this from a sofa

I wont go to any more games, and will not buy any more merchandise, ive bought the kit each year for last 15 years but i simply refuse to put any money into the club anymore.

Everyone needs to do their part in any way they can, even if that means giving up the special season ticket. I understand how precious it is but sometimes harsh measures need to be taken to get change

I’ve said weeks ago, the only thing that will possibly move the dial is a mass walkout by 60/70% of the crowd

there is way too much apathy and not nearly enough righteous anger among the actual crowd to make Levy think or understand that something has changed, a threshold has been crossed, and his tried and trusted method of second/third choice cheaper options combined with not giving his managers exactly what they want instead of opportunistic deal making (see Danjuma, see Spence) will no longer keep the plebs in place.

I think the last game of the season will be too late anyway - the anger, in so far as its on display will dissipate over the summer whichever new mug he persuades to take the manager role.

There should have been fire and fury inside the ground over the last few months - there was some, but not nearly enough. Levy will conclude he has got away with it and he can get away with it again.

Sadly I think our fans accepted mediocrity a long time ago.

I’d love it if the whole stadium got on Levy’s case during a match, but I just can’t see it ever happening. Most people are just not interested tbh. Look they pay their money to go to games and can do whatever they want but I wished there were more people protesting or getting militant but it won’t happen. Been to most home games this season and there’s barely any anti Levy going on, it won’t bother him at all.

That's fair enough but I'm of the opinion that unless you have a season ticket and are willing to give it up yourself, you don't really have the right to ask/expect others to do so.

As I say, some of these tickets have been passed from father to son and once they're gone, they're gone.
That's one hell of a big ask.

Yeah I get it, I dont mean to come across as inconsiderate its just the harsh truth by renewing you are giving Levy a 'confidence' vote. By all means keep your season ticket if you wish, no one can take that right from you.

Its sickening industry, football, that we have so much love and loyalty for the club that we will continue to pay even if the ownership is making a fool out of us all, which I highly respect but there needs to be a point where enough is enough

If a season ticket is given up, it'll soon be snapped up again by the next person who's been waiting years for one.
For me, the best and most effective protest would be for a large number of ST holders to just not turn up to one game.
Don't give the ticket to anyone else, just leave the seat empty.
That's going to look worse in the media and will display the fans dissatisfaction more that giving up your ticket for the next person to buy.
