Dirk GentlyRoyals and RacersDirk Gently The FA will no doubt impose a fine for "failure to control supporters", and the FL will no doubt impose a suspended points deduction - this is based on precedent of the Blackpool vs Huddersfield abandonment in May 2015.
If the FL *don't* do these they know they're opening the doors for more and more pitch invasions and abandonments, as well as leaving themselves open to criticism from clubs who've had these punishments before.
Was the Blackpool v Huddersfield match re-played or points given to Huddersfield ?
It was the very last match of the season and the result didn't have any effect on the league label, so they fudged it and let the results stand. I doubt they'll do that here as it's only Jan.

In the circumstance, I hope they ask for the game to be replayed - EFL love to stay how they want league positions to be earnt on the pitch, so handing a result to Vale would go against this. So it'll probably happen.

Theres no point doing this against Port Vale again. Their fans are on our side. Lets keep them there.
I think the game that should be earmarked is Leyton Orient if at all. Hopefully Dai will have started the process of selling by then which if thats the case, just final parting shots and banners in the stadium will be enough.
Plus as a side who have suffered similar struggles in the past, they will be sympathetic and are sympathetic from what I've seen

I think more abandonments will be counterproductive, and just piss people off, and won't get the same publicity. I would also suspect any points deduction we get from the football league will contain a much larger suspended penalty, meaning if we do it again, we will be relegated barring a miraculous set of results.
It's easier said than done, but we need to be creative.

Snowflake Royal72 bustmesis I think one thing it does do is put more pressure on the EFL, and for them to press for him to be banned from football if/when they meet with the independent panel again, to decide on punishments.
It's hard to think of any action that would obviously make Dai more likely to sell, but the protests are helping force the issue far more than doing nothing would.
Banned from football puts the selling process in the hands of the administrator, best offer wins taking into account the creditors.
Dai's dept is mainly to himself so really Admin is the best outcome at the moment, which is why certain parties are holding back and not getting into a bidding scenario just yet.
Got anything to back that up?

If he ceases all personal funding of the club. Then the other remaining Directors will have no other option. The Directors are obliged to cease to trade immediately. Trading insolvently is a criminal offence.

Winston Biscuit Football Weekly podcast on Thursday will have a section on it dedicated to our situation
They will have an RFC fan on there to discuss it. Unsure if that will be a representative of SBWD or otherwise. Personally I hope otherwise.
