90% are braindread let's be honest. It gets them out the house, thats all they care about. 

Absolutely I think for many of these people it’s just a hobby, something to do on a Saturday that gets them out of the house and they’re not as invested as many of us here and those organising the protest. 
 

But also starting to wonder whether KP have pulled the wool over their eyes to the extent of being compared to a cult. It would explain some of the ridiculous comments being made that ignore our shocking decline and the reasons for it.

Its really weird.

 

People can vote in a Government and within a year, if they don't like what they see, can call for their heads and completely change their political stance. 

 

But KP did something good 10 years ago and shat on everything else since and yet they are still revered. Just really odd behaviour.

If you’re putting tickets on resale, you’re not boycotting, you’re just not going. Pretending to be part of a boycott is then stupid.

What i don't get is I'm seeing a certain "type" of fan posting on Facebook and loads of his mates agreeing with him.

That there's no room for negativity and very pro KP.

By type I'm basically saying Baby squad lads that would be the 1st to protest and cause trouble if they were unhappy with clubs running in late 80s and early 90s all regime cucks now 🤷‍♂️

Will leave this here re the bolded word…

 

A cult is a group dynamic where devotion to leadership suppresses criticism and replaces rational evaluation with unquestioning loyalty.

It has already! But the cherry on the cake will be Sky talking about it in their coverage 

 

I really hope so

From my experience - no one buys the tickets up for resale anyway (Why on earth would they tbf). 

 

This will be an extremely half hearted boycott and will confirm what we've known for years and years. Foxestalk, Twitter, etc - it's an echo chamber. The vast majority of Leicester fans are apathetic to what goes on behind the scenes for the most part. As long as the team is playing - they will be there.

Boycott. 
 

it’s just the beginning. Let’s get the momentum going. 
 

We are in a relationship with a club which are toxic towards us. Don’t allow the idea that it’s anyway near a one way street on this

What would a successful attendance look like from a boycott perspective? For me anything south of 24/25k would still be impactful and I think that there's a good chance it'll be much lower than that. 

 

Talking about real attendance here obviously not the propaganda number.

Mine have sold when they have being listed this season, which honestly has surprised me with the standard on the pitch! 

[Mickyblueeyes]

For this to have any impact. Gain the necessary media coverage, will say it again, it needs a protest alongside it. Even if many take it up. Poor attendance in the championship is not anything new. We missed out on coverage last season, let’s not do it again.

 

If you’re not going, gather together outside the ground.

Baby Squad for the Nepo Baby is a development I wasn’t expecting 

[Raj]

Some comments on here is the reason why there is resistance from the majority of fans who will continue to support the club and king power, top and Rudkin.

 

Some of you have to realise that some fans , like myself have had season tickets longer than you were alive(30 years for me) and things like this is very hard to action, almost like a divorce.

 

It might be alot easier for some of you just to boycott whilst on the other scale others will think you are stupid, get behind the club, ungrateful little decks etc...

 

Just be careful how you appear on here as some on the fence will read your comments and think you are acting like spoilt little entitled cvnts.

 

Open to further ridicule....

Agree with this. I think protests like Norwich's outside the ground have more traction than a few empty seats at this level. Especially while they're being put back up for resale anyway, defeats the whole point. 

[Nolucklcfc]

On a practical level it’s meant to be -3 as well so I can’t imagine people will be desperate to go regardless.

To your point - the number is sort of irrelevant as we won't get the truthful figures anyway. 

It just has to obviously look like on TV that people aren't putting up with this nonsense anymore. 

[Katy]

Obviously everyone is entitled to their opinion and has the agency to do as they wish with their tickets. However, the whole point of this boycott is leave the ground as empty as possible, to make the point that we’re not happy. If we’re putting our tickets up for resale (and they do sell, more often than not in my experience) then what the hell is the point? We are so divided and half-arsed as a fan base that we’ll just drift into oblivion and we’ll all clap whilst it happens. 
 

I just can’t understand why some people are happy to stand by and let this happen. Leicester City is a shell of a club now and anything I can possibly do to save it, I will do because I’ve loved this club since I was 4 years old and it runs through every vein in my body. 

[OntarioFox]

Leicester hospitals are doing their cheap tickets thing again for this one, which only tends to happen for games they're REALLY struggling to get bums on seats for.

 

Last one was Sheffield United if i remember right, and that was £21 a head. You can get an adult ticket for this one for £14 - not sure if that's to do with categories or more proof that they're getting desperate...

Yeah agree. The Wolves one looked like this and that was considered a pretty good success. And it was only for 15 minutes. 

 

Given the fact that a lot of our games looked like this already this season it could be very impactful.

People largely do what they're told. 

 

The first part is only true because Rupert Murdoch never wanted a Labour government in the first place and has spent every day since they got in telling the British public how shit they are. 

 

We had a decade of the Tories being awful before that. 

 

And look how long MAGA has been pulling the wool over the eyes of the working class in America, getting them to vote against their interests, the cracks are only just starting to show now. 

 

There aren't really comms for the average fan speaking up against the running of the club. Percy writes an article once a year and gets frozen out for it and that's about it. The Mercury and RL play nice, the official fan group spreads happy back the lads nonsense, even the trust is a spineless mess you never hear discontent from. 

 

There might be podcasts and YouTube channels and foxestalk that's critical but few people over 25/30 are engaging with that and we've got an ageing fanbase full of majority boomers that are going to go and be happy regardless because they care about the day out but they're not really football fans, they're fans of their culture and the match day. Seeing their mates, getting out the house, having a bovril and a sausage roll. 

 

This is why clubs like Everton, with a seriously vocal fan group at work in the community, that stands for the supporters not the regime, actually work up genuine discontent when things are bad. 

 

We won't get that unless the club actually goes in to admin and people feel threatened or scared about the club's genuine future. 

 

[Mint23]

Has this really been pushed enough?  I’m not even sure some fans are aware of it.  Let’s not forget in the real world not many do social media.  Would it have been better to plan further down the line and leaflet drop all around the stadium before a game so everyone was aware?

It also should be considerably, considerably worse than the turnout that Wolves have had.

 

People keep going on about how Wolves, West Ham etc have been let down by their owners. It's utterly insignificant in comparison to the shitshow that Top & Rudkin have conjured up here. 

I said at the game the other day, my worry is that those in the ground that don't get "it" by now, simply won't. They can't understand the animosity towards the board, towards the Wout Faes, Soumares & Ayews of the world. A boycott is probably more likely to drive a wedge between the two sides of the fanbase than anything.

Pretty sure the club rejected a group passing out mental health leaflets at a game not so long ago.

 

Highly unlikely the club would stand idly by whilst fans shared material that suggested that our fearless supreme leader(s) have anything but the full backing of the supporters.

It's less numbers for now, more media capturing. Get the word building.
