The Supporters Trust on Sheffield Wednesday raised more than £13,000 to fund a protest against the Owl Under Owl ownership.
Sheffield Wednesday fans are planning to fly the plane at Leicester’s season opening with a clear message to owner Dejphon Chansiri.
The plagued owl started the championship campaign in total confusion after missing a series of wage payments to players and staff from the unfortunate Thai president.

Last month, Josh Windus and Michael Smith exercised their right to leave for free, despite the contract extension being triggered by Wednesday.
The North Stand in Hillsboro has been criticised by health and safety directors, and season ticket holders have not yet been notified to the location they will relocate for the campaign’s first home fixture.
