It's happening quite often these days because fans have lost control over their clubs and the people who own SOME of them have no real links to the town's , understand tradition and heritage or what clubs mean to these towns .
To these so called owners they are just businesses and it's extremely difficult to hold them to account given a fair percentage reside overseas and only watch their clubs once a season if that .
Losing control and influence over the club that they have a heavy emotional stake in leads to protest .
It's the only tool fans have , there's nothing else they can do .
