The Foxes Trust has today registered a formal complaint to the Football League about our club, Leicester City, for failing to inform our fan base about the new ownership structure of the club.
Explaining the move, Foxes Trust Chairman Ian Bason said “The takeover of Leicester City by Asia Football Investments was ratified by the Football League a month ago, yet our fans have still not been supplied with details of all parties involved in the takeover.
The takeover is the first to be subject to the new Football League transparency rules and we feel on behalf of all fans across the country it is our duty to ensure that these new guidelines guarantee fans of any club which undergoes a takeover are informed in a timely manner.
We are requesting that the Football League applies pressure on our club to inform its supporters and not let the new transparency rules be watered down by individual clubs failing to communicate with its supporters.
Our stance is also influenced by the current Chairman and Chief Executive of our club constantly repeating statements that ‘fans will be the first to know’ which by its actions could not be further from the truth.”
The Football League has acknowledged receipt of the complaint
