A Call for Change: A Footballing Reset at Leicester City Football Club

What angers me more than the dross on the pitch is the passiveness in the stands, no passion to get behind the team but equally no anger or emotion at the players, the manager and those responsible. Just sat on your ****ing hands sighing, and sarcastically cheering, our fan base lacks as much fight as those who wear the shirt.

The one thing tonight that got a sound out of most of the kop was a Man United player laying on the grass getting treatment. It bought folk off their feet effing and jeffing. No backing at 0.0 just that.

Incredible isn’t it. Honestly thought the bloke’s behind me head was going to explode.

 

The apathy is just weird. Things are getting worse and yet the anger is subsiding. The loud chants during the Fulham game feel a long time a go.

[Sly]

The only thing that is going to make any difference is empty stands now. 
 

People need to stop going.

I didn't get the anger behind that one. Kid was clearly in a shit tonne of pain getting stretched off, not as if he's faking it

[Claudio Fannieri]

What a mess, this season with woeful recruitment (managers and players) has created untold damage, we are in a far bigger mess than we were 2 years ago and that is after the club did a reasonable job of pressing reset with Enzo, but they have managed to undo all that hard work and more by then reverting to type. 
 

The disconnect with elements of the fanbase is growing beyond repair and to be serving up the absolute muck on the pitch is just further alienating the supporters. 
 

Top has to act now and be ruthless, today he has to move on RVN, he also needs to announce the removal of Rudkin and Whelan, and recognise the need for systemic change across all areas of the club. They are so out of touch with the fanbase it’s beyond comprehension. 
 

if he is unwilling to take this course of action then I am afraid King Powers time at the club is drawing to an end, as sitting doing nothing whilst Rome burns is utterly unacceptable and shows a level of ignorance and contempt towards the supporters who have loyally followed this club through thick and thin. 
 

Next season I can see crowds dropping below 20k and the club won’t be able to attract influencers, tourists and day trippers for a home game versus the likes of QPR, Swansea and Preston to fill the empty seats  and that is not being disrespectful to those clubs, it’s a harsh reality. 

Lots of the ‘legacy’ fanbase are the ones who are venting their frustration and anger toward the club and voting with their feet, they will be the ones who have been turned off by the matchday experience, the direction of travel of the club and the lack of communication from the owners and their senior management. 
 

This has become a club where there is little or no accountability, continued deflection and ignorance to our demise and a lack of any long term vision/strategy as to how we rebuild as a club. 
 

Something has to change as the current direction of travel is taking us to a dark place and without immediate action I genuinely fear the club will become a shadow of what we recognise it being. 
 

I really cannot believe there is one supporter who genuinely accepts what has happened to our club both on and off the pitch these last 2/3 years is remotely acceptable and if you do then I would question if you really are a supporter or more of a day tripper, tourist type of a fan, because this hurts like hell seeing my club being destroyed by the current ownership / decision makers.

Yeah absolutely I think you can tell from the off when it's bad and that kid was hurt.

I think the anger was that he's off the pitch, play on or has the rule changed?

It’s clear they won’t though….. yesterday proves it. 
 

 

I genuinely think most of the match day fans are also Tigers season ticket holders, it’s the only explanation…..

I think most people see it as they’ve paid for a ticket, so feel obliged to attend.

Exactly that. It's such basic thinking.

 

there really does need to be a boycott of games. A kind of 'not in our name' protest..

 

The humiliation we will suffer for the remainder of the seasons need to be loaded onto the Dutchman, Rudkin, Top.and Whelan. This is on them and the 17k drongos in the crowd who continue to attend

.

UFS could organise themselves into a complete boycott im quite sure....and others prepared to put their name down.

He was seriously injured and close to the pitch near the goal . If play continues he could have got players running into him or smacked with the ball . Although frustrating it was the sensible thing to do . 8 minutes were added on so we had more than enough time not to score

Yeah. But no.

 

Not the thread for this, but the man had bust his leg about two yards off the pitch. Medical staff, paramedics, stretcher. What happens when there's a corner or action down in that section and a sliding tackle, ball whacked out of play or a collision of on-field players with the medics or, god forbid, the injured player?

 

Yes he's technically off the pitch, and perhaps if he had a bout of cramp or some other non-serious issue then maybe I could understand the frustration, but his leg was literally being put in an inflatable cast. How could people not see this was something worthy of stopping play for?

 

In fact maybe it is the place. We're calling the change at the top and to reiterate that all our fans seem to get passionate about is the care a player is receiving after getting a bad injury.

Sums up thick football fans in general.

As far as I can recall Leicester fans have always been more vocal about issues like this, nothing gets them more angry than a dodgy ref or an 'in your face player'

It was quite clear he needed genuine medical attention though. I could almost understand him being booed if he came back on and was acting fine, but it was proper strange behaviour. 

[davieG]

I think it shows that deep down many more fans are angry about the state of the club and this was them venting at a 'neutral' situation as they find it difficult to be angry with KP directly probably to do with what Vichai achieved and then his untimely and tragic death.

It seems a shame for the OP to have just left it. It's an important cause.

Our fans are more likely to protest about corners being taken outside of the quadrant.

They would applaud Top doing a big steaming shit in their living room and then get angry and the dog for going on the sofa.

I have a vested interest obviously but it is truly ridiculous the amount of fronts UFS are fighting on at one time with absolutely ZERO support from 28,900 other home fans. Banners about the club and digital ticket all in one go and not a peep from elsewhere, plus suggestions to call a boycott, plus trying to influence some kind of matchday atmosphere, plus get the standing section sorted properly.

UFS are the only decent thing associated with the club at the moment.

What sound logic that is.

 

Top and co running the club into the ground, defend them to the death and clap along as they do it.

 

Young kid get serious injury, see red and hurl abuse at him.

 

Such a large section of those attending home games are utterly pathetic.

Lots of eye rolling and head shaking around me on 14 minutes. Even a "call yourself supporters", followed by 90 minutes of the same person absolutely berating the team.

 

I honestly think some people think that "We are going down" is being sung. Maybe time to mix it up?

 

I also think that doing it on 14 minutes isn't ideal. When it's 0-0 I think a lot of people they find it counter productive. A lot of our fans can not separate their emotions and thoughts from the current scoreline. Do it in the second half and inevitable we'll be losing and it MIGHT encourage more to join in.
