I'm so glad you've picked up on the 5 Dysfunctions framework, mate! I think a lot of people just think it's weird framing/terminology from me... Ha!

 

It's very good for picking apart why teams fail. 

Whats missing from your narratives is the banning of fans for little to no reason, particularly where the fans in question criticise the club on SM.

 

Its mentioned in the article about fans being reluctant to give names, but there should be more awareness as to why that is.

 

Whilst discussing fan groups, I get why the @Foxes_Trust are officially steering clear of this action but there is no excuse for not wanting to find out why the bans are being issued to long time season ticket holders for little to no reason.

What is the plan for the 14th minute? Just a minute's worth of "We want Rudkin out"?

Hopefully it is the Adrien Silva song

My point. 
 

Club’s reputation couldn’t get much worse:

appalling relationship with fans

financial incompetence 

ridiculous player management

failed managerial appointments

redundant training complex

amoral sponsorships

 

Yeah but apart from that it brillaint!

Here’s what people need to understand… KPFC do not care about what local fans think. They care what the global audience think. The thought of media slamming them and calling the ownership out globally absolutely terrifies them. 
 

If a single newspaper in Thailand started reporting there were protests against ‘king power’ , that isn’t just an embarrassment to King Power it’s an embarrassment to the king of Thailand… who heavily associates himself with the brand. I can assure you, make a big enough wave and we will see action. 
 

the one thing that was perhaps wrong, is that we’ve chosen to wear yellow. That is the colour of the king and is seen as positive support. The opposition to the king wear red and would have been disastrous for king power and more likely to cause huge headlines in Thailand.

We have been advised not to prescribe a specific song as that would be interpreted as a targeted witch hunt.  

 

Have to leave it to fans to decide what is appropriate!

The official supporter group is not interested in supporters protesting?

 

Makes you think there's nothing official about it and that it's just a bunch of yes men who will bow down to KP.

Just a quick question is it frustrating they've used a stock photo of UFS? Making it look like it's UFS behind project reset? Potentially causing for future issues around tifos with the club not approving them? Still think it's stupid you need tifos approving though.

Not surprised at all- reading some of that just makes me wonder how many seats they all had on one of the 6 victory bus parades Top sorted out last season!

 

What the high and mighty @Foxes_Trusthad to say about the protest?

 

Apparently they were talking about it on Talksport this morning.

I really hope this gets TV coverage before the game tomorrow and hopefully it's a step in the right direction for change too. Future protests or just tomorrow @ProjectReset?

Thanks Kenny - it's a fair criticism and I've always welcomed feedback (and always acknowledged we cannot speak for everyone, all the time). 

 

We actually spoke directly with Union FS leadership to coordinate our messages and ensure that they were distinct and separate. 

 

As some have referenced, there is a risk that if this protest is attributed to Union FS and to be absolutely clear, that is not the case. For Union FS to own this would run the risk of further unfair and targeted sanctions on its members. 

 

Hope that also clarifies for you as well @sharpylcfc

Yeah we clocked that, plus Tanner using a tifo of ours on his piece.

Not a lot anyone can do really.

Love the last paragraph. Says that other people think they're running the club whilst simultaneously claiming that he's telling other people 'how it works'. The irony/hypocrisy could not be any better.

need to be confirmed ahead of time? I might be there that early, really depends on traffic. Happy to do it if I am, but if it needs to be confirmed who's doing it before hand then I can't guarantee 

That's absolutely fine mate - just do your best - if you can make it, great, if not no worries at all. 

 

For yourself and anyone else potentially interested in having a chat with Jason at Talksport, please meet outside the Local Hero at 11:15am, the side facing towards the bingo hall. 

 

Thanks!

Pathetic, from the spineless cowards, I expect nothing less

If someone from the official supporters group has said 'Im not sure why people are getting wound up' then that is not an official supporters group. It's a mouthpiece of the club.

Genuinely deranged quotes demonstrating a complete abdication of responsibility and utter contempt for people he purports to represent.

[Kasey Keller]

Ginetta is a complete melt.

[skolfoxes]

Surely a supporters club can only be deemed to be 'official' if they are in some way linked to the club, through either being run by the club themselves, or bound by some sort of code of conduct, part of which would no doubt be to not criticise the club in public/to the media.

 

This should surely render their, or anyone linked to them, opinion on this matter totally moot. 

[sharpylcfc]

Do you think this will get any mention on TV tomorrow?
