5000/1 Anniversary Match To Support Local Causes - Saturday 30th May

[21st Century Fox]

I wrote a quick python script to scrape the ticketing site:

I made it 3697 sold so far from an available 26,576.

 

Bearing in mind accessibility seats will all look unavailable to it's going to be less.

Haha nice, best I could do was clicking onto them individually and putting $(".seat.o").length and $(".seat.a").length into the console

Each section of the stadium has a SeatPlanStatuses.ashx file that lists each seat as 60 (Unavailable) or 10 (Available), just need to scrape those (it's just the accessibility seats that throw it slightly because they always show as unavailable dependent on the customer profile, I assume).

Looking for 2 for this. Can meet at Leicestershire and Rutland Womens Institute before boarding coach 1 x

[David Hankey]

I'd wait until the 20th anniversary, we might be back in the top flight by then.

[SB87_LCFC]

Vardy wont be playing 100% as he's just back from injury and Cremo won't want him injured again, highly unlikely Mahrez will either. 

 

by the sounds of things it could be  

 

Hamer

 

Simpson

Morgan

Wasilewski

Fuchs

 

Albrighton

Schlupp

James

Gray

 

Okazaki

Ulloa

Who else would prefer to watch this selection over the shower of sh1t that just got relegated 

 

More fight,passion and  integrity in that bunch then our current crop of mercenaries, even in their advising years in footballing terms they'd probably give them  good run for their money for 30 mins or so.

I would say it makes you LCFC which 99% of the match going fans are. It suits some to use KPFC as it suits their narrative and they object to fans attending matches they have no intention of attending. Using their option not to attend but objecting to others using their choice to go.

Nope...

 

It's not about objecting to fans going to matches that 'they have no intention of attending"  you've totally missed the point.

 

With regards to 'this thread' some have a problem with the match, because of its timing, and the reason behind its adverting billing,  in the form of it being a 'celebration of our Premiership win', which is undoubtedly our greatest achievement just when we are at our lowest point of relegation to League One,  which some find a bit Crass by the club.

 

Its about to some the club not reading the room and thinking maybe this isn't a good time as as relegation is too raw at the moment, again taking in consideration the reason for the match.

 

If people want to go (all 3000+ or so to date) then go, and I hope they enjoy themselves.

 

What is doesn't need is posters like 

Safetosurfthisbeach  calling others a hateful fan base because they don't want to go and question the reason and timing of the match.

 

Then post snide comments along the lines of -  "Can I assume you all will not be attending matches next season? Or will you still go so that you can continue to moan and wallow in self pity?"

 

 Then not have the courage to explain this question when asked. 

 

Only childishly insulting by replying "I can't argue with Lard"  wow is that really the best they can come up with.

 

No the KPFC moniker is not actually being used for people attending a charity football match, but its being applied to the selection of fans who are oblivious or unwilling to question the overwhelming evidence of the mess the club is currently in, along with clapping and therefore condoning and showing appreciation for the numerous appalling,  lackluster team performances.

 

It baffles me why the only arguments the  KPFC brigade come back with is their the loyalty to the club, "backing the lads" " through the good times and bad" and "backing the team not the regime".  Which to me us the most stupid and out of touch phrase that could be used, as its the regime that is the root of our problems which cascades down to the poor team performances which they are supposedly backing.

 

Are KPFC so happy with the current state of the club at the moment and therefore just happy to turn up, and clap wholesale failures on snd off the pitch, because that's all they actively do.

 

 OK I'll ask the same series of questions I posed earlier to safetosurfthis beach, who as of yet hasn't been able or willing to answer.

 

Here goes...

 

Explain why we shouldn't question The Owner, Rudkin and the clubs hierarchy and hold them accountable for the mess we are in.  (and show our disgruntelment with protests etc)

 

Explain why we shouldn't question the players lack of commitment, work ethic, lack luster performances week upon week.

 

Explain why clapping players off after they have lost or thrown away points time after time is justified  - we as humans clap to show appreciation of something good, worthwhile, and positive,  then also hide behind the weak excuse of 'back the lad's' and prove you're a real supporter who cares for the club,  or also bring up winning the Premiership  as a great achievement under the KP Ownership as an argument.

 

It was 10 years ago, under the guidance of Vichai.

 

ALL of our current woes are under a different man, Top !  

 

What happened ages back under a different regime and the vision of a different chairman, whilst great, has no bearing on our current situation.  But Top's incompetence does!

 

So, come back with some constructive answers to the above points and actually quantify them

 

Go on, tell us all here on FoxesTalk why those who are challenging the club and those who DON’T clap failure are all wrong.

 

You'd be the first KPFC to do so..

I am not KPFC. Don’t know why you churlishly continue to call fans who support the club, this ridiculous name. I don’t have the slightest interest in explaining any reason that I continue to support City. EVERYONE KNOWS WE ARE IN AN INEXCUSABLE MESS. Doesn’t mean you suddenly should stop supporting something that’s been in your blood for years. I have never said that the hierarchy aren’t responsible for this horrendous mess and the sooner they all go, the better.

They just absolutely do not though do they. There's countless people that still have their heads completely buried in the sand.

Ha,  

Was expecting just this. 

 

The same response everytime and never has anyone who when asked come up with some responses,  

 

Those clapping (if you do or not, only you know) are actully condoning and accepting the mess, because by not challenging KP and their catalogue of failings that are still damaging the club as we speak are in fact  just letting them continue unchallenged to wreak more havoc. All by standing in the crowd blindly clapping,  and hiding behind phrases of supporting the club. Much the same as you did in this reply (Doesn’t mean you suddenly should stop supporting something that’s been in your blood for years.)

 

You also said above:

 

EVERYONE KNOWS WE ARE IN AN INEXCUSABLE MESS

 

And also.

 

and the sooner they all go, the better..

 

Standing there clapping or even in silence is just inaction and inaction won't achieve and remove what you claim to understand and can't wait to happen . 

Inaction is just letting KP know it's OK to continue as is....

Good work. **** me, they'll probably postpone it now won't they, spinning it as "recognising it's not the right time to be celebrating while the club reflect on a disappointing end to the season". Not because they are, but because they don't want to be humiliated by such a low attendance.

 

Poorly organised, poorly communicated, poorly thought through. At Leicester City Football Club? In 2026? I'm shaken to my core.

Not going, or protesting, doesn't stop you being a supporter. In fact,.I'd argue it makes you more of a supporter.

 

The real world equivalent is kids asking parents for chocolate and Macdonald's every day. You could 'support' that or, you can choose to put your foot down and say no. For the long term good. Tough love. 

 

There isn't, in my view,.an excuse. If you attend these things and passively ignore/endure the status quo, you are damaging the club that's in your blood. 

 

Life is more nuanced than just blindly showing up.

Bigger clubs than City have had fans protesting against owners/chairmen for years and it hasn’t made the slightest difference. Owners will sell when they wish to.

Let’s just give up then and slide into administration and possibly liquidation. Nothing we can do.

OK then.

 

Bearing in mind your post above.

 

What should we as a fanbase do then?

 

Also taking in consideration your earlier post of 

 

EVERYONE KNOWS WE ARE IN AN INEXCUSABLE MESS

They might wish to sooner if it’s made uncomfortable for them.

[thefossedoggg]

Just my tuppence worth. I'm going, Im a Foxile and I've missed a lot of moments over the years, I have the chance to go to this... so I'm going. 

 

I got sick last year and all of a sudden I'm not taking this for granted. Will I still be around for the twentieth anniversary? Will all the characters in this story be around?

 

Shakey and Vichai won't be there and maybe some others will be missing, but I want a chance to clap Claudio and whoever else turns out for this because they gave me a moment of magic in my life that I never even knew I needed. 

 

I'm prepared to park my feelings on the way the club is run for this one.

Hope you have a good day and hope it gets somewhere close to what you are expecting and not just irrelevant filler players.
