But what about the almost inevitable points deduction or fine?

Obviously such a display would require the approval of the BoDs but I'm certain it would attract the attention of the media. Jason does NOT own the Stadium so he would have no say on whether it was approved.
A march to the ground would not i suspect get the coverage required but as i suggest a huge banner placed in front of the boxes would be in full view of the TV cameras.

The more i think about it the more i think Sarb turning up the other week was Jason taking the piss.
His address is on Companies House, his other businesses are as well if you want to get at him that way. He is active on FB with a few fans already contacting him on there.
We need to be on SKY SPORTS NEWS and all over social media.

The general consensus of reply from Wigan was that the "worst" thing they did as fans was to sit back and do absolutely nothing until it was too late and the club ended up as it did before being sold etc.
Food for thought.

Food for thought.
Was it "the worst thing" though? What if other action proved more damaging? If we [for example] had a pitch-invasion. The FA then say our next six home games have to be played behind closed doors. We then remove operating revenue from the club, and go in to administration. Ten point deduction for that, three points that were from previously not paying staff & four points from the pitch invasion itself. We end up going bust and reforming in North West Counties. Would that be "worse"?
The reality is, we can only force Whittingham/Bond's hand, if we deliberately damage the club, so his asset value diminishes. But, that runs the risk of fatally wounding it.
We also have a board that most of us trust. If we make their position untenable, and they resign, then what? What that make the situation worse?
It is frustrating, but our position is different, because of our board being basically, on our side, not the owners.
