Oxford (H) Boycott Round 2 - Stay in the concourse until the 14th minute

[jim5000]

Come on the foxes 

 

Hope everyone in the ground claps our boys off at full time whatever the result 

[ian__marshall]

Leaning towards not going. Not sure I can be arsed to drive all the way there and watch MC do his best to lose us the game. Feel bad for not going, but I've just lost all enthusiasm for it and when I consider the trade-off of valuable time away from the family then I'd rather spend the time with them. 

[Fathead1981]

im only going as my 14 year old lad is in the away end as we live in Oxford so stupidly got myself a single ticket so we can spend some "quality" time together, pretty sure that time will be the only thing remotely close to quality about the day!

[teblin]

I'm going to the game and completely support the sentiment and will clap all people that do it. But my difficult as I'm going with my kids and not fair on them if I do the protest.

 

Its so tough to feel guilty for going to a game. But I know thats not why the protest is being done, though doesn't help an overthinker.

I clapped our last two relegations because failure gets me off, so I would 100% clap us off in a one off game against a team we are likely to finish close to.

I'm going to boo them unless they come up holding the white Vichai scarf or a photo of the Thai king.

Well done to anyone who boycotts today, it's a tough choice and is tricky. 

 

But the time for asking nicely is well over. History shows that you can only get the people at the top to act when you make things uncomfortable for them and protest. 

 

I don't hate on anyone that wants to go to the match as usual and have a normal night out but hats off to anyone who has decided that the situation needs action, it clearly does.

The numbers look strong - 32,000 boycotting today!

[Dandy king]

To be fair if there was 3 people in the stadium official attendance would still be 27000 !

Just stand outside the ground and boo instead, much more enjoyable.

I guess the tifo is a no then Mods. 
How about a “visit Cambodia” banner?

Same with me good hours drive on a good day, just makes you feel why should we put the effort in when most of the players on the pitch don’t even try to put in an effort but I’ll likely be driving down hoping for a decent performance and a convincing win as usual thinking / hoping surely things can get better ?

If people really want to make a big impression, should actually leave at the 60th minute. The age Vichai was. That would be a statement that would cut deep and hold weight to it. 
 

Maybe that is too deep and disrespectful, but in terms of biggest impact, I think that would give it. 

[ACF]

My thoughts are more around who I don’t want to see. No Vestergaard, no Ayew, no Soumare, no Winks, no Thomas. Assuming also that Skipp is out. 

 

If Skipp and Ric are out 

Stol

Cover Okoli Nelson Aluko

Ricardo Page

Fatawu Mavididi Monga 

Daka 

 

Evans must be included on the bench becoming a bit silly

nah the only thing keeping me going rn is the full time boos and watching the players having to take peoples anger

 

[AYLESBURY FOX 1961]

Have i got this clear - the protest planned is not to occupy seats until minute 14 - then after that what - just standard booing ? And no protest outside the players entrance before or after match ?. If there was something akin to planned vocal protest outside the ground i will turn up for that but i am not parting with any money to go into the ground until the whole lot is exorcised. 

[silverfox23]

Do you think there worried no one will turn up...talk about reading the room.

I just don't think we're good enough to play with a single forward and with JJ out this will isolate them even more.

I'd change formation and go 3-5-2:

 

                            Beg

        Okoli          Vesty      Nelson

                          Hamza

 Fats         Page        Ricardo      Mavs

                 Ayew        Daka

 

Vesty can ping quick passes in the midfield and also Hamza has to do is tackle and be physical.

Bring Aluko and Silko second half for additional pace.

I actually think the opposite

 

It will be a decent crowd tomorrow - Category D prices, Oxford bringing 3k, Saturday 3pm kick off

I think that would be a mis-step personally.

 

Invoking Vichai will if anything just get us some 'woe is me' hurty words from the nepo baby and is an excuse for him to say the fans (who actually see the club for what it is) are being mean/overly personal or whatever else. It would be a load of bollocks of course, but i think they would willingly twist something like that.

 

14 harks back to the incompetence which has always been there, it just wasn't quite so readily apparent before and there hadn't been as much of it.

 

Ether way, it probably won't make that much difference what minute it is and ultimately what we want is numbers and as much unity as possible. Support it if you can.

That would mean some people leaving at half time to beat the traffic. That might either help or turn into a stick for KPFC supporters to beat their enemies with.
