cosb6 Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 I'm beginning to wonder, if the current owners of Leicester care about the fans at all. Harsh, you may think, but wait! Go to the Club Website, click "Tickets / Memberships"... it simply says.. "Information for 2012/13 Memberships are yet to be released. Please check back soon." I will, but it's November... how long should I wait. No point buying tickets, I'll get them with my membership! Secondly, I've always had a letter a few weeks before my Birthday, with tempting offers.... and I've always took them up. Either 4 tickets for £80... or 5% off in the shop. A reason to spend cash, fill seats, etc, etc. If they did EITHER of these, I would 100% have been at the game today. As it was, I watched it on telly, saved the cash.... There's a number of reasons the attendance figures are down..... poor people running the club, without a clue of how to get bums on seats! Yes, I'll get a slating for not selling a kidney to be there every week like a true fan... but the club needs every fan, whether die-hard, occasional... or simply getting people in, and getting them addicted to the beautiful game.
Voll Blau Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 They care in the sense we give them our money and advertise their products for free. They'll get bored with us, and we should be worried when they do.
Jace Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 I know for a fact Top cares about each and every 1 of us very, very much
5waller5 Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 If they are the reasons you think someone doesn't care then maybe your thread would have been better titled .... "Are the sales and Marketing department of LCFC bothered about me??"
Happy Fox Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 The owners care about getting promotion and using us as a brand in the prem so they can make money, that is all they care about.
theessexfox Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 I don't care if they don't care, as long as the money is coming in.
Karljohn Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 I think when you have around 6,000 "pay on the gate" fans from a population of 650000+ in Leicestershire then its a case of does Joe public care about LCFC? I know many including myself who live in Warwickshire and choose Leicester because we hate Villa and Cov are wankers. Ive spent thousands over the last 30 odd years and to me it doesnt matter whether its mandaric/elsom/george/top in charge, theyve always been a piss poor run club with a marketing department that barely reaches outside of the LE2 postcode.
Yojoe36 Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 Of course they don't give a shit. Buisness men genrally don't, no matter how much they seem to be. They don't give a toss about PR if they're making profits. When we get in the premier league, they'll hope for us to get beat 10-0, just to get loads of international press.

I can't detect the level of sarcasm in this.
Jace Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 All the owners care about is making money on Filbert Fox merchandise and pick and mix
Webbo Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 I don't think it's a case of caring or not I just think that the owners have put their own people in charge who don't have any experience in football.
cosb6 Posted 10 November 2012 Author Posted 10 November 2012 With a little bit of effort, they could make a shed load more cash.... that's my thought!
skinnydipper Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 They care about our choice of jewellery.
Yojoe36 Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 I can't detect the level of sarcasm in this. I'm being serious. Anything to get the name 'King Power' out there is good enough for them.
5waller5 Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 I'm being serious. Anything to get the name 'King Power' out there is good enough for them. I feared you might say that. Utter rubbish.
Bayfox Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 In answer to your question. No. Ffs why else would they charge 32 quid for a lunch time ko thats on sky. But unless you win the euro millions on tuesday you ard going to be able to do fcuk all about it.
Deucalion Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 I think the Raksriaksorns care more about how they are thought of by the fans than any other previous owners or boards of Leicester City. I choose them over any of the previous parasites who have bled our club dry over the previous century.

The Thais are bleeding the fans dry more than any other previous owners.

Maybe martin george should have cared what you think rather than just running a top 10 team.
Deucalion Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 Glad they care what you think. Maybe martin george should have cared what you think rather than just running a top 10 team. Martin George - " I don't think it is my responsibility to spend my family's fortune on the football club." Well it's a good job that the fans don't think this way as they are constantly digging deep into their pockets to support the club. The Raksriaksorns have put their money where their mouths are and spent money they haven't been expected to. If people want to have a go at them because we didn't beat Forest then that is up to them. We can judge Martin George's contribution because it is over. He was great at choosing up and coming managers who went on to be successful. But...he did not put a penny of his own money into running the club and managed to get success on the cheap through the talent of Brian Little and then Martin O'Neill. The Raksriaksorn's period in charge is not over yet. When it is then we can judge them.

Voll Blau Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 I think the only day when the owners of Leicester City will care about the fans is when it's the fans themselves who own it. Sadly it'll never happen because a) the infrastructure isn't it place for that to happen as in Germany and b) we probably wouldn't have the bottle to do it anyway. I'd love, absolutely love, to be proved wrong though.
Deucalion Posted 10 November 2012 Posted 10 November 2012 I'm as cynical as anything and left wing enough to be suspicious of the motives of businessmen. But... something makes me believe in the Raksriaksorns.
