It literally feels like the club think everything is going to plan and they’re happy with how we’re performing. The lack of leadership is staggering.

When I watch us, I can’t help but cast my mind back to a trip to Amsterdam with @GingerrrFox. I stood in that Amsterdam bathroom and bore witness to something truly defiant that night. Something we’ve not seen from LCFC all season —an act of sheer, unrelenting resistance. @GingerrrFox’s stool, bloated with the weight of local marijuana and Heineken, fought for its very existence with a tenacity I’ve not once seen from Leicester City this season. Nine flushes, each one a battle, each one met with stubborn refusal. It twisted, it clung to the porcelain like a warrior making a final stand, refusing to be flushed into oblivion without a fight. And yet, here I sit, week after week, watching LCFC capitulate like a team of gutless cowards, rolling over at the first sign of adversity. No resistance, no resilience—just a pathetic, lifeless surrender. I have seen more heart in my best mate’s doomed feces swirling down an Amsterdam toilet than I have in this Leicester side all year.

I’ll probably get there early to buy some merch in the store and fully soak up the fan zone. Can’t wait.

If there was a time for him to go, it was before the international break, to get someone else in - one last roll of the dice to try and just spark some kind of change. As it is, our decision makers did nothing, left him in charge and he rolls up with the same shit tonight. I even have evidence that Susan and Rudkin weren’t working during the international break. Knowing that I was never actually going to get a refund, I took some of my anger out at them via email - asking for a season ticket refund. I got a reply saying no one was there because it’s the international weekend and they were ‘taking a break’. You honestly couldn’t make this shit up anymore… Our CEO and Director of Football were ‘having a break’. I’m sorry, didn’t realize they were in the match day squad. Pathetic. The whole regime is soft, they look the other way, and there is no leadership or accountability anymore.

God we look good in white socks.

Be great if Vardy could stop putting his hand up and just control the football instead.

I feel really confident watching us play out from the back.

Well done Ruud for having over 2 weeks to make a change, and doing literally nothing. Perfect.

UPDATE: We had a few refunds having moved away from ‘Premier Ambitions, Amateur Decisions’ to the very hard hitting ‘King Power Out’. But we’re still slightly over target so good to go. After receiving a few over the top hissy fit messages including “I hope you die in a plane crash” from an ‘anonymous’ person on GoFundMe, I shared an update with donors via GoFundMe, which is: “King Power Clueless. Rudkin Out”, which has been incredibly way more receptive as it still holds King Power accountable for poor leadership and their apparent lack of direction in running the club right now. But more importantly, it focuses the bulk of our frustration on Rudkin, where it belongs. Personally I think this is a good option as it bridges the gap between those of us who want to send a message to King Power but also for those who don’t want to call them out so directly, bearing in mind we all pretty much want Rudkin out. Without wanting to drag out the banner decision even more and potentially open the door to another tsunami of hilariously angry grown adults, we could even have: “King Power Clueless. Sack the board” if we wanted to go broader than Rudkin. So that’s where we are. I spoke to the pilot. He’s done around 1000 football stadium events in his time (including the KP) - he did Vichai’s birthday message a few years back. He’s all locked in and ready to roll. The letters will be black. (It was either black or red). It will be in the skies 10-15 mins pre-kick off and then circling for 5-10mins post kick off. As ever, thanks for everyone’s support and constructive thoughts. cheers.

Well, to be fair… https://www.kaohooninternational.com/markets/552506

That was sensational. This is the exact point. It’s not about the money he, as a billionaire, has put in to paper over the cracks. This is about exposing those cracks that have run deep over the last few years to the point of us looking fragile and pathetic in all departments. No one actually thinks a ‘King Power Out’ banner will cause him to pack his bags. But, at the very least, it should embarrass him and piss him off to make some kind of change.

I’m just one man, dodging offended grown men, trying to send a message to Top that will actually make him feel something, whilst I dish out refunds! Note to self: don’t do this again for Christ sake.

Hello all. Just wading through a combination of abusive direct messages, some constructive messages and a few refund requests … I think this will be my last initiative! Cba with the hassle and having to calm down grown men. Anyway… We’ve had to issue 3 refunds in total so far. I’ve sent an update out on Go Fund Me (it’s on the fundraiser page, and you might also get an email about it - check your spam and junk folders)… but basically I’ve asked if people can send a message to me on GoFundMe by this Saturday if they’d like a refund. I feel like that’s an acceptable amount of time. Last time I checked we had gone back below the total, but I think we’ve just crossed the line again. However - it will probably change from now until Saturday as I expect a few more refund requests to filter through. As a refresher, here is the fundraiser page: https://gofund.me/a6094bb0 Cheers for now.

Hello mate, Send me a message via GoFundMe and we'll sort out your refund. cheers.

The problem with 'Rotten From TOP to Bottom' puts an emphasis on 'TOP' being in capitals and therefore trying to cleverly call out Top. The issue is - the plane banner letters are all in caps, so visually it won't stand out and won't have the desired impact. It's a great line, but it won't work within these parameters. However, could it be used within the stickers / other on the ground initiatives??? - Could be an option. 'King Power Out' is short, sharp and to the point. And it'll hurt Top on a personal level. Will they actually sell up / leave after one plane flies over? No, probably not. But this message needs to hit home in a way that makes Top wake up and stop ruining the legacy his dad built. Most of us who are behind 'King Power Out' wouldn't care in the slightest if Top and King Power stayed - as long as he pulled his finger out and lead the club properly. But in order for him to wake up, the message needs to be severe. And that's the decision. cheers.

100%. Boom. However. I shall message donors via Go Fund Me directly to see if they want a refund. So that may push us back a bit. There will be a time limit on requesting one as I've got a life and job to get on with! Thanks all who have contributed and supported. cheers.

Morning all. Lovely day today. As mentioned before, I’m more than happy to issue refunds to anyone who disagrees with 'King Power Out.' (I sanctioned one refund last night). To be clear, 'King Power Out' is the majority-preferred route. As the only person handling this, decisions have to be made that not everyone will like—I get that some may feel offended, upset, or betrayed. If you’re feeling an overwhelming sense of outrage over 'King Power Out' and donated based on an earlier message, you can message me on GoFundMe, and I’ll sort your refund. As I told the guy I refunded last night, this has moved fast, and it’s important to make sharp decisions based on where the conversation is heading—especially given we only have one message limited to 38 characters. No hard feelings at all if you request a refund. Unlike some, I won’t be sending OTT angry messages like the ones I’ve received from grown adults. Yes, refunds will set us back slightly, but given the traction since confirming 'King Power Out,' I have no doubt we’ll hit the target soon. In fact, GoFundMe has just emailed me (see below) about sharing this fundraiser with the media—so either way, we’ll get there in no time. To reiterate—I’m one person trying to organise this. I am not part of 'Project Reset' or any other spin-offs. My sole focus is getting the plane banner sorted. That said, I fully support any spin-offs that help push the message and am happy to chat with those leading them about future initiatives. If you’re upset with what we’re doing and happy with a disillusioned Chairman/board, you’re more than welcome to write a love letter to Top/King Power/The Board or start your own movement after our plane flies by. No hard feelings—you can voice your love for King Power just as those of us who’ve had enough are voicing our views this way. cheers PS – Refunds via GoFundMe take between 3-7 business days.

Signing off for the night. A very respectable 80% reached in one day, including processing one refund…! Appreciate the most popular message (KING POWER OUT) isn’t for everyone - but that’s what we’re going for. It is by far the most popular option. As always, for those who are strongly offended about us voicing our anger towards the club - and especially for those who have privately expressed their anger towards me and “my hatred of Top and his family”, please remember two important things: 1. You do not have to be part of this. 2. Feel free to fly a “KING POWER IN” plane over the ground and see how that goes down. Goodnight. cheers.

“Got ahead of himself” 😂 Behave yourself.

77% there! Very close.

Hello mate, It’s looking like the vast majority want ‘King Power Out’. So, if you’d like to send me a message on GoFundMe, I will arrange for your donation to be paid back to you. Cheers.

62% already! Come onnnn! This is more exciting than watching us play. Absolute scenes down the KP tonight if we hit 100% Keep spreading the word. Here’s the link again: https://www.gofundme.com/f/lcfc-plane-banner cheers.

UPDATE ON MESSAGING: We can have up to 38 characters (including spaces). So, 'Premier Ambitions. Amateur Decisions.' is literally the max. It isn't a double sided banner. It's essentially big, dark letters that can be read from one side (therefore with their mirror image the other side) - see attached as a reference. The more I think about maximising impact, the more I think 'KING POWER OUT' has the most legs. It's to the point, it's got more bite, and will more than likely pick up additional PR coverage. Anyone know about how we stick a vote/poll in here? cheers.

As time was of the essence, I did a quick AI whilst driving. My gut tells me most people will be ok with it as a banner image for a GoFundMe page.
