🗣️Shall we begin: Announcing protest Arsenal 9th March We have been preparing for this for a few weeks in anticipation. We are angry, the fans are angry and it’s been building for some time. We have all been more than patient. We all know the root cause, we have always known the elephant in the room. Yet, this isn’t being addressed. It’s those who can least afford it, have the most emotional connection with our club who are being asked to pay the price in more ways than one. Trampling over generational support and memories of friends and family who handed the club over to us like something they have stepped in. - The treatment of fans from the club - The eradication of fan culture - The assault on concessions and generational fans - Putting profit before fan safety - Putting profit before everything - The total lack of communication and transparency - The uncertainty of our clubs future The club preach fan engagement the reality is they dont practice it. We know this first hand and have evidence. ACTIONS NOT WORDS ITS NOT GOOD ENOUGH They can hold meetings with the FAB which is all under NDA. It is supposed to be for the fans YET they can’t tell the fans anything. It’s a disgrace! These meetings are effectively gagged and it is NOT open and transparent dialogue with fans. Not even close. The silence from the club is deafening. We rise again to defend our club and be warned this will not just be on the street campaigns at the ground. Keep treating the fans with contempt at your peril More details to follow in the coming days The 1958 🇾🇪

This is what our club has become. - Money over loyalty - Money over fan safety - Money over dignity - Money over everything We have all seen what happened last night. A carbon copy of Galatasaray last season. Which the club assured us wouldn’t happen again. The club is fully responsible for this putting fans and their children at risk. Fights breaking out all over the stadium in the home sections. Large blocks of Rangers fans in ‘K’ stand. We encourage all fans to escalate their experience of last night to the club and send via [email protected] For transparency and accountability, please copy in our email address so we can monitor numbers and make sure this isn’t just pushed under the carpet again. Send to [email protected] To enforce change visibility transparency and accountability is key. PURPOSE - ACTION - RESULTS FC58🇾🇪

🗣️The 1958: Purpose - Action - Results Our applications are in for the fans forum. Independent, unbiased opinions and consultation for match going supporters is clearly lacking. Let’s see if the club has the balls. Let’s see if the process is unbiased. → Change is needed. → New direction is needed. → Fresh ideas are needed. The future of our club, of the club handed to us through generations should not be in the hands of the silent select few. A select few who preach unity but breed division and non collaboration. We have experienced this ourselves far too many times. The truth will reveal itself. This is all done in the shadows and under the faĉade that the fans who are the heartbeat of our club are considered and consulted. We cannot stand by any longer watching this play out. We will trigger and fast track our plans this week to address this. Certain groups within our fanbase are empire building at the expense of standing up for what is right. At the expense of standing up for fans who never put them in position in the first place. They are afraid of losing any control. That is not what we are about. Our track record proves this with our actions and integrity. Our fan base, now, more than ever needs truly independent fan representation. This WILL become a reality this week. Success is not final, failure is not fatal. It is the courage to drive forward that counts. For you, for us, for each other. The 1958 🇾🇪
