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

I'd be very surprised if it didn't. It's an easy way to fill time and a discussion point that'll generate interest outside of LCFC.

Would love for it to be brought up only problem being if they have an ex player of ours on the panel the ex player will quickly dismiss it I imagine to stay on good terms with the club?

Ginetta is a complete melt.

That's just his face 🙈

 

He's a club fan boy and won't hold the club to account.

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

It's within the article. Up to the individual, some members of trust will be protesting tomorrow and discussions have been had with club at all levels recently.

"We were expecting a big points deduction" 

 

Why was that Cliff? 

 

Pathetic.

Completely agree with this.

 

People like Cliff are the reason why the club don’t feel the need to show any accountability.

It'll be interesting to see who they have on. Usually it's just Joe Cole, Peter Crouch and Lynsey Hipgrave.

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?

Shame it's TNT as I can't imagine too many LCFC fans are paying for this unless they're big on Europe.

Suppose if it's just them then we're more likely to get more airtime cause it's not like the club can request who to have present games on TV can they? So they're more likely to go more in depth with the protest and fan issues.

I'm sure if it's covered on TV, clips will be posted on social media.

Is this bit like when I'm playing FM24 and go interview myself while on the toilet after a big win?

The worry is that they'll look at it from face value which will be;

 

1. A club of our size has had unparalleled success under King Power.

2. The club has had to cut things back to avoid PSR.

3. We were 'morally' right to give Brendan Rodgers time to try and fix his mistakes. (I assume the same people who slagged us off for sacking Claudio will take this stance).

4. They won't know who Rudkin is so won't go in depth on that.

5. Top has been chucked into the deep end because of Vichai's death.

 

Which is obviously all fair enough as a surface level review of the club, but we as fans know there is a lot more going on. You'd like to think that someone at TNT will have a camera and microphone and go to the protest to get a feel of what's going wrong.

All reasonable points - as you allude to, they're all surface level though & that is why we really need fans to engage in the debate publicly. If we don't actively correct the narrative, we allow this misinformation to spread.

Yeah it's not what I believe, it's just what someone who is looking on from the outside is likely to think.

[Philkeavo]

Spliff is an irrelevance. The problem is he has a voice because of historical links to his tepid supporters club. 
 

All supporters of Project Reset must be prepared to call him out for what he is, irrelevant, and someone who does not speak to, or for the majority of Leicester fans. 
 

The media, in the balance of objectivity, will give him air time. The consistent message must be that this guy does not speak for the majority of Leicester fans. He speaks for himself and no one else.

Cliff,  I think you must be an Ostrich!

[The_77]

I’m largely supportive of all of this, enough is enough.
 

I gotta say,while Adrien Silva was absolutely horrific business, highlighting a gaffe during a time we were actively trying to fight for Europe when the club was under Vichai’s watch is pretty silly (to me at least). There are plenty of better examples to use. 
 

But that ship has sailed, so good luck to everyone at and outside the ground. May this effort spur on some action that makes the club accountable to supporters. 

[Brizzle Fox]

My god is Ginnetta still a thing. I swear him and his pals were around when I first started going to the City in the late 70s / early 80s, when they had their little section of misery in the corner of the ground opposite end from the kop.

 

Fair play for his longevity, continuing irrlevance and managing to keep that "chairman" title for all that time though.

 

Build that man a statue.

It's not Cliff Ginnetta is it? 

[Spudulike]

Cliff says they don't know anything about it and are not interested.

 

But he knows that Supporters Club members are not involved. Really? Has he asked them?
