This has completely done me

Why would he? We're down, he's on loan and he's aggravated an injury ince already - he'd only jeopardise a move to a non-shit heap

Probably, we only deal with about 3 agencies

Cooper's singings had all the hallmarks of Cooper signings, can't believe people don't think he had any input into the most 100% nailed on Steve Cooper singings ever. Look at the Forest signings, random Euro players with some from Olympiakos (club/ownership) and then there's experienced PL players like Shelvey, Chris Wood, Emmanuel Dennis then there's the former U17s he worked with like MGW, CHO, Aina and of course there was an... Ayew. Couldn't be clearer. Ayew, BDCR and Skipp were what he wanted.

Never had an FT team enter, it requires someone taking the mantel and organising it. Hopefully we get Foxes Trust team enter too.

Bought tickets for RockNRoll circus in Norwich ages ago for the Streets, was eagerly checking to see who else was on the line up for ages. Babyshambles, well happy with that.

How many good PL loans have we had this season? Buonanotte was the last good one and we dicked him about dropping him for effeminate Reid. Clubs rightly will weigh up the development opportunity from the minutes they'll get, the manager they'll play under, the atmosphere at the club and so on. Facilities on their own don;t make a success - as we've seen.

Top would have seen first hand what the right people, structures and processes could for a club, he was 26 when KP took over, you think he would have picked dup some bits here or there. But given we know what he's like now, he was just on a jolly

> Only gives a shit about finances > Overpays anyway

Certainly not avowedly pro-KP like most people. Consistently been against gold on kits, excessive KP branding and too much emphasis on King Power idolatry

West Brom's new owners have tried to get things right as well, even when you have relatively competent people in place things go wrong. they've readjusted and sacked multiple people. We've just ploughed and promoted the architects of our failure!

I guess (literally) if club want to pay us in instalments we'd just factor that with Macquarie like we have been doing. If that doesn't count as income for the SCMP rules that seems incredibly punitive. The rules between the leagues just haven't modelled a club imploding and failing to meet any of them. It shouldn't happen in the first place but it's genuinely difficult to get the house back in order. The precedent was there with Sunderland so they essentially should have stress tested PL-L1 situations with 2020s football finances in the fray, Luton scarcely count as they were operating from a League 1 cost basis anyway.

Oh come on, he's just turned 22 and he has 37 G+A in 77 nineties. He's evidently a high potential, PL standard player and he's suffering from a suffocating environment, yes he's tailed off but why wouldn't he?

Not worth 10m according to the most dramatic babies on FT

Sol has consistently been one of the most anti-KP posters on here?

You'd think so but he doubtless would have had lots of offers whilst doing well in the lower leagues with Cov. After not excelling wth Stoke I don't think there'd be the same amount of suitors he had previously.

If Stoke were daft enough to sack Robins then we should be all over him. His experience from Cov at their lowest ebb will be vital.

We didn'tt renew with Compass, saw somebody (@CosbehFox maybe) say it's Oakview group now or something. The club much prefer some 'prestigious global beverage partner' like Carlsberg which is part of the problem. It's completely incidental to King Power that we're based in Leicester, it's a debased club without any obvious totems of the city or county besides the the obvious that predate KP like the name or the badge.

I think the wage bill should be smaller, even just by the crude size of the squad - it'll be lower. Cifuentes' payout shouldn't be too big either. Say the playing wage bill was £130m excluding managerial pay outs last season, we'll have dropped 20m (?) in wages with Hermansen, Justin, Ndidi, Vardy, Coady, Ward and co leaving. Then there's the relegation clauses slated to be anywhere between 30-50%. There's no guarantees with these clowns though, £140m last season was insane.

They should collaborate more with local businesses, this is way better than some crappy Thai dye t-shirt for £40. Get Round Corner or Braybrooke on tap, work with Joules/Next/Dunelm/Admiral/Fred Perry/Wolsey and other brands with Leicester connections

Losses shouldn't be too bad this year. Lots of sales, no permanent incomings, wage bill reduced somewhat and if EBK is included in this financial year about £65m in outgoings. Ballpark loss would be about £15-20m. We lost £20m last time in the championship, should come in a bit below that.

I'm assuming transfer income counts as revenue in L1? We absolutely have to maximise our sale values, which should be self-evident. The BEK deal was disastrous

If Enzo said jump into the Soar with a flapper up their arse they’d have done it. As soon as he left all strategic thinking was out the window

Puel was a typically lazy KP appointment. Vichai only ever appointed cheap managers too. In 16 years we’ve recruited two managers that were in job already right? Pearson (barely counts) and Rodgers. Both delivered success so you’d think we’d do it again but no.
