When I got the email from the club I thought we had actually signed a player.

The morning session with Nacho & Fofana has sold out.

 

Afternoon session with Barnes & Thomas is still on sale.

 

Click on the link in the initial post and then follow the article down and you will see another link that says like 'apply now' or something. 

 

Think its only open to members & season ticket holders.

Does anyone know how these things work?

 

How much do they usually let you take to sign?

I imagine it’ll be the same as most signings. 1 item per person and herded through like cattle

Ah, i was hoping to get a different shirt signed by each player to later frame.

 

The club will probably charge me a £1.50 fee to use my own pen ink.

That might be possible cos you still only want one autograph per player. Ring and ask.

 

Im on holiday this week so pretty gutted. Would have liked framed Nacho and Fofana shirts.

 

Met Madders once via work and tried to stay all professional and not bother him. Had a sharpie in my bag with a shirt but didn’t ask. Regret it still.

I might just turn up and hope. The 'rules' don't seem to be very clear but clearly they aren't going to want people there with 40 photos to be signed ready for Ebay the next day.

 

I just want one of each to be framed. Being allowed to put them up will be a completely different challenge I'm not looking foward to. I'm thinking, put one above the stairs because I know taking it down will fall straight into the 'too difficult' bracket for the Mrs.

The club really have the most curious approach to developing the fanbase. Curious, as in they seem to pro actively work against developing it

Google'd Sophie Howard ... now have a firm urge to attend

I agree, there's a few things that really baffle me with the club.

 

Top has shown his generosity, as did his father, with the amount of free things they have given to the fans. Then, things like the ticket prices against Sevilla, and the booking fee's etc completely rip the fan base off.

 

It seems the generosity from the person who actually matters is really let down by the minions below who really don't matter.

You can balance offering benefits to members without totally excluding other, less committed fans and newer, potential fans. The balance is so ridiculously slanted towards 'bus 1s' (I'm not being literal with that)  the whole thing is becoming harmful to the club..

 

Where's the concept of soft power?

 

Where's the data grab of emails and mobiles from parents of kids in Kettering, Grantham, Nuneaton, Rugby who might have wanted a photo with the FA Cup?   

 

Why not have signing sessions in marginalised somali, Indian and East European pockets of Leicester? 

 

No overseas tours. So they form an international membership scheme yet refuse to give out tickets to those international members. 

 

The club hierarchy bang on about inclusivity and wear the old rainbow laces, but unless you have 500+ priority points you can basically fck.off if you actually want to see a game or meet a player

Sign of the times.

I do think the minions running the retail at the club are crap.   Inventing a loyalty scheme.... coz without it I might buy a Forrest shirt?

50 quid of a kids shirt!

Back in 2015 I took my lad to an event at david lloyd in marlborough.... where they introduced ngolo kante.  He only spoke French but signed shirts and smiled alot.  Benny was there also.

Happy days.... what can the club be so generous now?

Another signing session next week. For those who went to the last one, was there much queuing involved? Or was it pretty much just turn up and go in straight away?

I arrived about 45 mins before the start which put me close to the front.  This meant I could know I'd be in and out as had to return to work.  The queue was really long behind us by time it started and people were still joining as we left, which was approx 20 mins in to the session. Because we were early we did miss Fofana though. In hindsight probably a blessing!

Players will probably ask the fans for their signatures out of pure shock that fans still turn up…

[HybridFox]

I dare Brendan to attend the signing

[Foxes1]

Bet Eddie Howe turns up to get Maddison to sign a piece of Newcastle Utd headed note paper
