I go to games, and it is pretty obvious that the fans making the positive noise backing the team with chants etc are exactly the same fans who are chanting Rudkin out, sack the board etc. The rest of the ground essentially makes no noise whatsoever, aside from the occasional mild round of applause or tutting when there are mistakes. It's barely supportive or positive, more of a passive observer watching events unfold in silence.

 

There are no fans who "boo anything to do with city", they intermix positive team chants with anti board ones. Sustained booing of the team itself only tends to occur after games are already lost, mostly after some of the worst player performances in terms of effort the club has seen in recent history. And as proven in this thread, across Facebook and with incidents at the ground, there are many, many instances of "fans who desist from booing the club" verbally, or physically attacking fans who have booed or held anti board banners. You will find plenty of fans on Facebook demonising Union FS, or the movement to reform the Foxes Trust.

So KPFC isn’t thrown around as an insult?

Those who go to games or renewed their season tickets aren’t accused of being part of the problem?

We need to pull together, unfortunately that’s unlikely to happen anytime soon.

Thought he had decent season loan at a club that played him as a wingback?

Is he no longer in the international squad?

If you don't like the fans behaviour, go and follow another club.

Well as the majority don’t boo does that mean you believe that UFS should follow Notts F?

The song at Norwich included the lines ‘:How we kill him, I don’t know. Chop him up from head to toe’ 

There is no excuse for that.

I'm not actually sure it was. Its just hurty words. Rudkin can remove himself at anytime. Instead he has basically stood up this week and said **** you to the entire fan base, he is a toxic vile creature and vile get vile back. 

How has he said **** you to the fans this week?

Im no fan of booing but I get why people do it. Some of the performances from our players over the past 18 months have been disgusting, darn right disrespectful if I am honest. I am not really sure what fans can offer when the players offer nothing. If there was some fight the fans would get behind that, its the way there were certain games where they just went through the motions, did the bare minimum they needed. 

Reading some of the comments on here it sounds like some are determined to carry on booing. My take is that it’s time to cut that out and actually support the team on the pitch at least until people know for sure that some individuals still don’t care and the football is rancid to watch.

West Ham fans stormed their executive boxes, Everton chased players out of the city. We just boo a bit. 

 

And what will the OP suggest we do in the ground to make it less "toxic"? 

Stop booing players?

Us missing out on the Champions League 2 times because of Man City and probably Chelsea cheating has cost a good £400 million, then Everton staying up in 23 has cost us £150m per season.

We didn’t get £200m when we got to the quarter finals of the CL.

We may well have been knocked out in the group stage and not earned anything like we did the first time.

We only earned as much as we did as we were the last English team left in the competition.

PSG got about £145m for winning it.

Bodes well. It was only due to the kick off time and wanting to go to bed I turned off. Very much an early to bed and early up kind of person! 
 

It wasn’t bad first half. I thought we looked pretty good at playing through the lines but a bit dicey at the back and a bit wasteful at the other end.

 

Croatia are a strong side though and it sets us up to go 9/9 baring any cock ups. I guess Ghana could spring a surprise on their day. 

So you won’t be watching much of this World Cup then. Would have been worth making an exception last night you missed a cracking second half.

Yeah true and that will be the case for lots also. 
 

Either way a sign of the barriers that have been in place for a while. It has worked for them really as this decline should have seen mass walk outs and declines in attendances but because they have withheld the opportunity from local people and like you say, kids for over 10 years, people are just desperate to get back in. 
 

Not a criticism and it’s understandable.

 

Edit - not a criticism of the supporters that means.

How have the club withheld the opportunity?

Aren'y they limited legally as to the number of seaso tickets they can sell?

If people weren't giving up theor season tickets then how can it be the club witholding the opportunity?

You're bang on, in principle,  but this is the kind of shit you leave yourself open to if you delay a FFP decision over years by using mitigation to delay it when you are bang to rights. 

 

We will still have to defend it and courts of laws are tricky places.

 

I mean some people say they regretted winning the Premier League, I regret winning the Championship a lot more, the thinking we'd stay up after getting straight back up it probably the highest, albeit in a long list, of failings by this ownership, along with the idelogy that all of these financial irregulations would continue to go away because we were to big to face them and bouncing between leagues. 

 

We should have consolidated and rebuilt properly. 

Some people regret winning the Premier League??????

Absolutely i am because with the resources we have, we shouldnt be where we are and its unforgivable. 
 

A few wins against tinpot teams isnt going to change that.

Did you keep your ST for next season?

Just now, jayfox26 said:

But with good reason. There is absolutely nothing to be positive about until Top and Rudkin feck off

Well if getting promoted means they don't leave then hopefully you've got a very long period of being miserable.

Should we be winning games and be top next season don't expect the majority of fans at games to join in with booing.

It’s a forum for people to express their views. If you don’t like those views skip past them.

 

What have we had to be positive about for the last few years?

 

I admire your optimism but he didn’t change anything at Rangers following that interview after his Southampton spell. I’d love if he did. Apparently he has some of the strengths I do want to see regarding promoting youngsters. But the rigid approach to the philosophy is constantly his undoing. 

If you skipped past the neghative views about the ownership and Martin then there wouldn't be anything to read on here, just the same posts again and again.

Those who attempted to be even slightly positive have been called out as KPFC fans, seems a few of them are no longer posting as regularly.

They're probably taking the right approach, there's not much worth reading on here until we sign players.

Because we shouldnt be where we are and certain sections of the fanbase use winning games as an excuse to silence any criticism of the ownership. 

We are where we are, are you going to spend the next season moaning constantly about it?

Certain sections of the fanbase will criticise the ownership whatever happens.

I’m going to absolutely hate being on here if we are romping the league and people are lauding Vestergaard as a world beater again and are being positive about the owners. 

If it was too happen why wouldn't you just enjoy the experience?

I'm hoping that those who actually go will be a lot more positive and get behind the team. At least until it's proven that he hasn't changed his ways and we're giving away stupid goals all the time.

Because his reputation is in the bin. If he was at all humble or willing to learn he’d adapt his ways.

 

And I know where we are. I have been clear I think promotion this coming season is not realistic and we need to just halt the decline. So I’d have rather get someone of a lesser name who could focus more on substance over style and make us hard to beat.

 

Again, you refer to enjoying the experience. How many Rangers or Southampton fans will not laugh in your face at the suggestion Martin will offer that?

I'm not happy he's our new manager but as always I'll try and take a positive approach.
If you keep finding fault in everything the club do (easy I know) then you're going to have a very miserable time following your team.

Perhaps, just perhaps, he's learnt and is willing to try a new approach.

I don't expect you and many others to change your attitude and you'll continue to post the same negative POVs over and over again.

I agree to a point. I will go initially with an open mind as I did with Marti, I will expect to see some kind of cohesive idea/plan/tactics, which there wasn't last year at any point. I personally don't get on the players backs during the game. Obviously people can react how they see fit. 

 

If they are passing it across the backline and a pass goes astray due to an opposition press then its dumb tactics, inviting pressure and high risk in dangerous areas, its unnecessary, I honestly don't get it. 

 

That said if its garbage, slow and ponderous, im certainly not going to be jumping up and down and clapping, it just doesnt fit. 

 

I honestly think the fans have been very patient with the absolute shit served up by the club over the past 2 seasons. Its very hard to back nothing, no effort from players, bad decisions from the club, poor management. I hope Martin has something to prove, although I worry he wont care as long as he is true to his 'philosophy' much like Rudkin chases the same 'philosophy' 

Number of players I despise over the last couple of seasons but I just don't get booing them (fair play to you for not getting on their backs).

They're probably too well played to decide to leave because a few fand are booing them and it just makes for a divisive atmosphere.

People saying ‘who would you get who’s better’ are completely missing the point.

 

It’s not about names, it’s about what seems like the right fit. People would prefer a ‘lesser’ name like Challinor who would be likely to bring a more exciting style of play and results that a big name failure who no doubt thinks he is above us and the league we are in due to his ego. 

If he truly thinks he's above us and the league we are in then it seems strange that he signed a contract.

Think it's time to just accept where we are and who with and try and move on in the hope we all start enjoying the match day experience again. Ideally with the way we play and the results.

Just now, Foxin_Mad said:

What concerns me is he thinks energy has to come from the 'fans' no, just ****ing no. If you want energy to come from the fans then give us something exciting to watch, it we are watching the team pass it back to the keeper from a corner, or Janick standing still, rightly there aint going to be any 'energy'  

Perhaps it can be a two way thing?

If fans turn up for the first game with a negative attitude and don't get behind the team, moan when a pass goes astray, boo the players they don't like then we're fcuked.
Hopefully the players will ensure the fans want to get behind the team.

First job should be asking the remaining staff what the cause of the relegation was.  What were the issues with the training, players and tactics?  
 

If they don’t know get rid.  If they do know, get rid for not fixing it or finding solutions. 
 

Then start trying to move on those players. 
 

Everyone needs to back in early to work on fitness or **** off and get their agent working. No wasting time giving toxic, lazy, ‘experienced’ players a chance at the expenses of others. 
 

Have we got any coaching staff that know what they are doing? 

You’ve just had them sacked.
