Ely fox Posted 10 October 2022 Posted 10 October 2022 Top was supposed to be monitoring crowd reaction. So hopefully Top will monitor the crowd’s reaction at the Palace game if we don’t win.
volpeazzurro Posted 10 October 2022 Posted 10 October 2022 Whilst I'm not into booing our players at the moment or rarely ever, the manager is a completely different kettle of fish and Top needs to be under no illusions and a televised match is ideal as it will be heard by all his business partners and any investors. Clap and cheer the team by all means but as soon as Rodgers makes an appearance at the start of the match or when he approaches the touchline, universal 'Rodgers Out' chants needs to be ringing round the stadium. There needs to be no doubt and Top needs to be seen to be decisive in front of his counterparts and not just us.
Guest Col city fan Posted 10 October 2022 Posted 10 October 2022 Are Leicester fans the biggest group of armchair protagonists out there? If people genuinely want Rodgers out of the club, they should protest (appropriately) surely? I just don’t think we will. I think most people like to moan and whinge without taking any real positive action. The action I’m taking is I’m not attending at present. I’m off to watch Coalville thump Notts

Super_horns Posted 10 October 2022 Posted 10 October 2022 Same sort of thread on our site. Maybe people can share ideas !? https://wfcforums.com/index.php?threads/protest.59710/
NasPb Posted 10 October 2022 Posted 10 October 2022 Need to start from the bottom up Need to bring and hang about protests banners, and organize digitally. Individual action is good as well but without any collectivism we're doomed forever.
TheUltimateWinner Posted 10 October 2022 Posted 10 October 2022 Not really sure where to put this But my mood towards the club is at the lowest it’s ever been I saw an email from the club showcasing their Christmas selection and all I felt was anger. When I see the name Leicester City it’s just associated with feeling low and frustration towards them. Nothing feels ok about this club at the moment, and even a Christmas shopping newsletter felt wrong and somehow made me angry It’s like a cloud surrounding the club that won’t lift until something changes 3
LcFc_Smiv Posted 10 October 2022 Posted 10 October 2022 If it isnt collective it falls flat on its face from the off. It looks a bit shit if a thousand or so decide to stay at home, a few make a banner and those who decide to go for the vocal route are too spread out amongst those who don't open their mouths to support the team let alone back something they don't fully believe in. I don't really know much about organising this sort of stuff but worth seeing how other fan groups have garnered the interest for a protest before going ahead with one? I.e Charlton fans in recent years. I know Barnsley fans had a Facebook group in which they planned a mass walkout over previous ownership. only for Barnsley to go and score just as it was to go ahead and only a few hundred left and it failed spectacularly. I guess Union FS are the most vocal and kind of public group of all but I imagine they'd be against being the face of anything as it could be classed as going against the support they are trying to generate, the relationship they are working on with the club and whether they even want the manager gone.
Heskey2011 Posted 10 October 2022 Posted 10 October 2022 If we beat Palace at the weekend then lose to Leeds on thursday, beat wolves the week after lose to man City the week after that etc etc, win one lose one for the rest of the season we'd end up on 40+ points. it wouldn't be a rollercoaster more like the birthday bumps, could we take it mentally? Not saying this will happen but if there's a chance it could, would you take that now? 40+points and out the cup to Newport😫 .

Not saying this will happen but if there's a chance it could, would you take that now? 40+points and out the cup to Newport😫 . Yes I'd take it, but the major issue is we haven't shown anywhere near the kind of performance bar Forest to suggest we would be capable of winning one game in every two. I think at this point anyone would take anything that guarantees survival but the bigger issue is individual and team performances have been so far off it. Mistakes on and off the field are continuing to be made and the clear lack of leadership and responsibility from any senior figure is lining us up to go down in an embarrassing fashion and it feels that the fans have almost been forgotten by the club who we love, while they continue to try and fleece us for every penny and act as though everything is fine.
lee7 Posted 10 October 2022 Posted 10 October 2022 Protest before the game, protest at half time and again at full time. Seriously sick of the club seemingly doing nothing about the shitshow we have endured for 12 months. Our style of play is terrible! Week after week we just try to keep possession passing it sideways until our opponents **** up and gift us a goal. I'm so sick of watching this shite it's unreal. The sooner he goes the better...for my own mental health!! 2

Ricey Posted 10 October 2022 Posted 10 October 2022 Something has to be done. It's gone beyond the point where we should worry if it upsets Top or look bad from the outside. I'm not sure if Top will be there on Saturday, so it needs to be something visual. Clearly the booing and chants against Rodgers aren't having an effect.

Freeman's Wharfer Posted 10 October 2022 Posted 10 October 2022 The problem is all of the chants are only coming when we are losing or have lost. Against Palace it needs to be from the off. At the moment we’re looking like a fan base that might be happy for him to stay when we win but might not be when we don’t. We’re genuinely not that fickle. You can say “get behind the lads”, and all of those cliches that get trotted out as if footballers have an inability to operate without anything other than a nice safe environment, but in this instance I’d say that getting Rodgers gone is well and truly helping ‘the lads’. I’d take 0 points against Palace if it meant getting rid of Rodgers as it’d give us a much better chance of success in the remaining 28 games.

At least in the 00s we were aware of the limitations the club was under, if anything it pulled us closer together as fans and was key in forming the never say die attitude around the club. Now we have witnessed what was on paper one of the best squads we have ever had in serious trouble at the bottom of the table. We are paying a manager who is, by the media, classed as world renowned being paid an obscene amount of money, with no real interest in building a relationship with the fan base and who would have jumped ship for bigger and better if it wasn't for a nice new contract. Our club is being made into a franchise and grows further apart from the fans on a weekly basis. As many are going through a cost of living crisis ticket prices rise and the only word out the club is the shite merchandise they continue to try and push upon us. 7 1

It may have no effect, but if board members receive a flood of protesting emails then there's a possibility they'll sit up and take notice.

Yeah agree with all of that except the fleecing, don't think we can really say they’re ripping us off, they've put a lot of money in havent they, and they're not trying to be sh1t. I'd like to see Brendon go sooner rather than later but it's not an easy decision for Top to make. I know it seems like the obvious thing to do but we don't know all the info im sure there's more at play than what we know to be honest. I don't think we need to blame Top for the results. Players coaches and the manager should shoulder that burden
Larry_LCFC Posted 10 October 2022 Posted 10 October 2022 Thing is any booing absolutely should not be aimed at the players. They run their arses off and they are very capable. Unusually, I dont hold them responsible. They are being completely and utterly mismanaged which puts them in the predicament they find themselves. I imagine their confidence is on the floor because of that ****. We need to make it clear to the players we are behind them. All anger should be firmly aimed at BR.
Buzzell Posted 10 October 2022 Posted 10 October 2022 (edited) Booing would probably be useless anyway. Rodgers will come out and say that the fans shouldn’t boo the players even though it was obviously aimed at him. It’s not like he’s not said it before Banners is what you want.
