Just remember that Blackpool, Charlton have both publicly protested against the owners of their clubs imaginatively but the owners are still there and the sympathy for the supporters has just dissipated.
If a protest can be carried out with a true meaning as to why and one that just wouldn't look comical making us all look a laughing stock then lots more supporters may just join in. But at the moment whilst people just want to go around shouting "Chris Turner out" and chanting against the "Sheffield mafia" then they're just gonna make our supporters look like tw*ts! This has GOT to be done right, with one agenda and NOT a handful of people throwing objects onto the pitch or tasteless name calling being shouted out.

You're right, any protests have to be done in an organised, non-violent way.
I saw that you used the example of the Oyston family and how the protests have not made a difference in Blackpool. Well the Oystons are truly evil, and their aim is to destroy the football club by taking every penny out of it. Dave Allen isn't evil, and protests on a large scale will more likely than not have an effect on him. Remember when Wednesday fans protested against him? He was out in a flash.

everyone outside, no one inside. An empty stadium is the only thing that makes them take notice.

A protest outside the West stand aimed at the numpties in charge (charge said in a very loose sense of the word)
Cameras will be outside the ground.
Any banners should be behind the goals - there should be plenty of camera shots when united are kicking towards our kop.
The over riding protest should be to stay away.

1 game where there should be a concerted effort to get everyone to stay away. Get it on social media and the airwaves.
TV game is ideal, if you want to watch the game sit in the pub.

Agree mate, but some people will still be in the ground whatever, so they might as well make themselves useful an give the directors box some stick

You'd better ask Jeremy Corbyn for some advice...
