I'm sure if we shared it on plenty of Coventry pages they would support it. And Brighton Northampton and Burnley fans too. Add in Blackpool and Leeds and we could have a decent number..
Or how about a about a non club specific petition calling for the FA/EFL to do something about ownership of clubs. Use us and some of the above as examples. Share with all football clubs fans. That might reach 100k.

The only problem with a non specific one is it's non specific and won't be an additional lever to get KM out.

I think this is the key: 100,000 signatures between Blackpool, Coventry, Leeds and Charlton is easier. Then, the goodwill we already have with Brighton, Burnley and so on.
I'm sure 100,000 signatures petitioning for investigation in to football club ownership would be achievable, and would still get our plight more attention than we'd otherwise get.
I think petitions are taken a lot less seriously by the people these days because of all the fake votes from those who tried to change the Brexit result
Petitions feel like a Keyboard warriors route these days
I'm proposing that all the fan groups should get together and march on parliament calling for changes to the rules on football club ownership. One of the aims should be to give clubs 'protected status', rather like that given to listed buildings. You can buy a club, but you can't fundamentally mess with it.

Don't know what the answer is but players have the PFA to them - does there need to be something to protect clubs and in turn the fans and the competitions?
If clubs are relegated it should be due to teams and managers being better. Not because an owner is running an experiment, or putting unqualified people in important positions, or prioritises things such youth development and the matchday experience over having a competitive team on the pitch.
In the case of Blackpool they've made a profit of £7.5m, some of that should have been spent on having a competitive team, not just for their fans but the compeition as a whole.

My answers would be: Not really; you don't need it; and, sorry, I'm a bit busy.
Obviously, it won't get her out by itself.
I'll leave it for the "brains" at CARD & the Trust to decide. because it can't work without their backing/starting it.
Better than a questionaire ?

By the time the FL do anything we'll all be dead.
Tbh I'd forgotten all about it/not sure if I knew it even existed.

But if you think it's a good idea don't let my opinion stand in the way !
That's about the number of Charlton supporters actually in the ground for the Coventry match ....... or perhaps, the 2%.
