UNION FS tifo support

[Jordan]

Couple of questions to UFS—and I’m going to ask these questions as someone that thinks KP need to go and that anyone going to bat for KP these days is weird

 

1) why do you think that guy thought he could walk up to your drum, kick it, start some s**t, and essentially get away with it?

 

2) what are some lessons that you can learn from “ultras” in Europe that have some influence on your actions as a group that can help you ensure that incidents like tonight’s do not happen again in the future?

Ermm.. Aiyawatt and King Power do that too - and have done so ever since they took over the club, fifteen years ago.

 

That's part of the reason why the majority of our fanbase still give them the benefit of the doubt.

 

Regarding the incident last night, the individual/group attacked need to put in a formal complaint to the club - with copies being sent to local media.

 

Herlihy and co. have occupied the moral high ground ever since the episode at Norwich last month (for which UFS, unfairly or otherwise, are currently being blamed).

 

Fans need to act to reclaim this territory, otherwise Rudkin and Herlihy will stay in their posts for life.🤮

 

 

This ain’t a my dads bigger than your dad, a couple of posters simply asked why the hate for a group that when in fact they do much more than people realise.. they hardly stand there with hoods up and snoods on and have openly communicated many a time anyone can have a chat with them on matchdays.. if the were like arsenal who gather in tunnels with face coverings then I can understand people being hesitant but they are just likeminded supporters supporting the club like anyone else

This comes across as a strange bit of whataboutery.
 

A large corporation or a billionaire doing some philanthropy is a bit different to a group of fans organising a food bank collection or putting on a charity football tournament.

 

All I’m saying is that when you have a group who’s mantra is “Leicester helping Leicester”, it’s a bit strange for some of the Leicester community to have such strong dislike for them.

Why do you think UFS need to answer those questions? 
 

You should be questioning the reaction not the action.

I’ve never understood the hate, just a group of decent lads that want the best for the club. 

[Sly]

We’ll always have a divide in the fan base unfortunately.

Mostly this was Vichai no? Has there been any credible cases of Aiyawatt doing anything for the community?

Don’t look at the foundations accounts with the chunk of money sitting in there……

Yeah, what’s going on with that? Sounds unsurprisingly dodgy.

The foundation has £729k sitting in its accounts - obviously this might have changed now but it’s some extraordinary amount of money for a charity to hold at any one point

Unfortunately the good work and support of this group disrupt a lot of the zombies sat near them. 
 

Ya see Union FS are Leicester fans whereas a large chunk of those near them are King Power ‘well we used to have Craig Levein and were in League one once’ fans.

Was the comment somewhere above about the instigator of the issues being a KP mole just flippant or a suspicion?

 

Seems really weird how someone physically initiates problems with the main noise makers within UFS only to be allowed back to his seat afterwards when, in this current climate, escorting people out and issuing banning orders for the mildest of things seems the norm.

 

As unbelievable as it sounds (Well actually it doesn't these days with KP/LCFC) It does make me wonder if there is a concerted effort to target/silence UFS as being the loudest and most vocal in anything to get the change 90% of the fans want.

 

Has this person been seen in that area before? Was he posted there to create/antagonise UFS into some sort of reaction without any recompense/sanction for his actions? 

 

This whole episode stinks and has my suspicions about his motives.

The UFS hate is soooo bizarre. Literally the only part of the fan base that tries to improve the awful atmosphere.

 

Those that dislike UFS, do you genuinely prefer listening to the away end all game every game? Are you against the charity work and tifos? Holding the club to account? Or is it just bad language in the songs? Cause if the answer is yes to any of those questions, then honestly football and supporting leicester just arent for you.

You are correct but there is missing context. This is 2024 accounts and there were no donations in w023 but 500k in the 2024 accounts which came in shortly before the end of the accounting period. Hence little time to disburse. It is not unusual for Amy charity (I sit on a number of them) to hold reserves to smooth out lumpy donation incomes. In the past the Vichai foundation has funded sizable one off projects rather than lots of dribble support. With Birch as a trustee I would not see this as an issue. We have issues but not sure the Foundation is one of them.

My two pennies worth from someone that had no idea it was going on.

 

1. Absolutely barmy that anyone would look at what is going on at the club and think 20 lads singing is the problem.

 

2. It's nuts that a man can walk over to them, start a scrap and then return to his seat.

 

3. I think it's wrong to walk out en-masse because someone had a pop. Perfect opportunity to crank it up even more IMO.

Doesn't money have to be used by a certain point to retain its charity status?

What peeved me off about it was the fact that rudkin out was sang by all sections of sk1 last night and in that particular moment the lads joined in.. sadly they were just in the firing line being the obvious target 

[FoxesTez]

The main issue is that if that reaction had happened towards any other fan and/or fan group in the stadium then there would have been an ejection of the person, at minimum, and potentially even a ban. 
 

Let’s not forget that this group have previously been targeted verbally and physically when doing tifos etc. with nothing also done. 
 

Same for the young girl with the Rodgers Out banner at Brentford - physically abused and spat at (I have no idea if she is part of UFS or not). There's a theme - if your opinion is on the right side of the KPFC divide then the rules don't apply. 
 

I have never understood the attitude of our fan base towards UFS - a group lobbying for positive change whether that be safe standing, ticket prices, charges for the ST cards, generally trying to improve the atmosphere in the ground. That list doesn't even include their best work being the tifos, food banks and advocacy for mental health charities. All of that in the face of constant battles with the club and a big majority of our fans.

 

You may not agree with their stance towards Top, King Power, Rudkin etc. but voice your opinion in a different way. They want the best for this club (as do you) but they see a different route to achieving that than you do. 

 

Edit: Appreciate this reads as if they are the focal point for the KP out energy which I know isn't the case in reality but is in the minds of the KP in brigade.

Imagine how much of a **** you have to be to  stick up for Jon Rudkin.

 

Incredible

I suppose that's the big drawback of putting your name out there as being a part of a specific supporter group.

[Spudulike]

Was the assailant under the influence? Was he removed?

 

I've not heard of other fanbases behaving in this odd manner. The overwhelming majority support UFS, I certainly do. Suppose that you always get a tiny minority. Perhaps a Derby fan?

[UniFox21]

This is what's being put out currently

Hilarious if his man doesn't get a ban, given we've seen the club ban fans for being near to where something has been thrown before. 

 

In any other location, someone walking over and starting a scrap is probably getting arrested or banned from a place.

KPFC fans worship a rich guy who doesn’t give a damn about anyone but himself. You think these people care about food banks?
