Blue Union calls off Spurs protest

A protest planned for the Spurs match has been called off by the Blue Union after 'significant fan feedback' via their various constituent member groups. The reason given being that the team is now doing well and now is not the time...

Excerpts from the Blue Union statement

The organisation of Saturday's planned protest began in earnest following The Blue Union's third and most recent public meeting, during which a clear consensus of opinion was reached amongst those in attendance that further positive action was supported, and that the nature of that action needed to be taken to ?the next level?.

Since that meeting however, David Moyes and the players have managed to effect a significant upturn in form that now offers us the outside chance of UEFA Europa League qualification via the Premier League and, perhaps more significantly, has taken us to a very winnable FA Cup quarter-final at home to Sunderland, with the carrot of a mouth-watering return to Wembley that all of us so desperately crave.

With such a significant period of the season now upon us, it would be remiss of us to ignore the wave of feeling that has become apparent over the past few weeks, and indeed the personal feelings of the majority of our officers, all of which together are telling us, very clearly that ?now is the time for unified support, not protest?.

The future of our great football club remains of paramount importance to all involved with The Blue Union and our supporters should be assured that a short-term upturn in results on the field will not in any way divert our attention from the cold hard facts of the precarious situation that Bill Kenwright and his board have put the club in off it.
