Fair play to Janet for saying protesters worried about the future of the club are not fans whilst hoping we end up in further financial ruin as a gotcha.

This basically. Lots of this on Facebook and Reddit.

I think there’s about four or five I know who aren’t going. 
 

We’re not deliberately boycotting there’s just numerous reasons for us not attending. It’s been crap, Monday night, going to be freezing, stupidly early work meeting miles away in the morning, not feeling too great, it’s on TV. 
 

I honestly don’t think it will make much difference, FT seems to be a very vocal part of the fanbase. I don’t think the vast majority are aware or that bothered.

Anyone who has said they aren't boycotting, or dont agree with the boycott, what's your reasoning please? I've seen a few have already put reasons on like @Chelmofox and @Bourbon Fox but im genuinely interested to hear views of people that dont agree with the boycott. 

 

Also anyone that has resold their ticket, you do understand that defeats the objective 

I don’t agree with the boycott.

I don’t think the objectives and demands are clear enough.  Some say they want KP out, some say they want Rudkin out, some say they want Top to stop playing polo etc.  I think protests such as boycotts, marches, demonstrations, strikes need a more clearly defined demand.  
I also think that KP are not as bad as some owners, and we haven’t reached the point where it’s so terrible that anyone would be better.  Top is not as bad as Chansiri or Michael Ashley. 
I also think that in terms of impact - if that’s what you want - then choosing the day when the turn out is already going to be at an all-season low (weather, post Christmas, week night), is somewhat misguided.

Question 3 was as well though out as this thread….

I think this criticism is quite reasonable actually. This is something that's been called on very late and it's not easy to articulate your objectives when you are just trying to promote a simple message to stay away from the game. For me, it's the one very small piece of leverage I have to show my dissatisfaction with the way the club is being run. 

 

I do however think that we are heading for dark times as a club. I fully believe we could go the way of Sheffield Wednesday under this ownership.

I’m not in UFS but why would they hate them? They help the atmosphere and give to local charities? Would love to know their reasons? And I don’t mean any offence but I couldn’t be friends with someone who “hates” a group like that. 

A lot of people are unable to think critically and hence will jump on the bandwagon of the zeitgest set by media or social trends, without even knowing why themselves.

 

Others just hate change or those who are seemingly generating a positive influence, as they are not the ones who have pioneered it.

What they fail to account for is that 'backing the lads' hasn't stopped the rot, at board level or on the pitch

They seem to believe UFS are a bunch of ungrateful oiks who should be ignored yet are the reason the best owner in football will sell up and leave us in despair or in the hands of somebody even worse than this. I mean, make your minds up. 

 

If 95% of the crowd love him, as is suggested, why isn't he here more often?

People's obsession with UFS has to end. Boycott wasn't called by UFS but has been hijacked by thickos spreading lies.

 

Hope our foodbank at the end of the month gets as much attention as single tweet has done but somehow I doubt it!

Course it won’t. I think if you demographiced (not sure that is a word but you can tell what I mean), those who are devoted to KP/Aiyawatt and anti-UFS, a large amount would be boomers from the county. Being from the country of Leicestershire myself, I know the type. Big houses bought when they were cheap, easy career progression and able to go through their careers without restructured and stuff we all have to suffer now. Again, from experience, these people don’t tend to give things like food banks a second thought because they have had it easy themselves. 
 

Sorry, but of a rant but I have thought this for a while….

So glad I’m not on it!

They'll blame the empty seats on the weather

231 people voting for boycott

 

It'll be interesting to see if this will actually happen or is just Foxes Talk.

 

Monday Night in January - when attendences are low any way, I doubt the impact will be noted... I'll guess it will not be mentioned on Sky before the match

As has been already mentioned, people not attending because it's cold, kids are back at school, games on Sky etc. are contributing to the boycott even without doing so willingly, because they are not making the same effort that they would have in previous seasons to attend the game.

1) Yes, for many reasons.

2) Yes, for many reasons.

3) No, for many reasons.

 

Sat on the fence for quite a while about this. But following Boxing Day, and other recent performances, I decided there are much better things to do with my time than spend a couple of hours in minus temperatures.

Judge me if you wish, but I no longer care enough and the club is to blame for that. Didn't use to mind games like these, but for so many reasons, I'm very willingly giving this a miss. But you watch them add my season ticket to tonight's fictional attendance.

If they try to pass off that the attendance is 28,000 when clearly it's well short of that, then that in itself is embarrassing for the club. 

[Bourbon Fox]

I don't think they announced the attendance at the ground
