  1. PSR isn't the problem on the gap. All three promoted clubs spent serious money in the summer including ourselves with our PSR concerns. Ipswich dropped £120m. It's for me clubs spend the money so scattergun and terribly that their squads are polluted with poor players. The key to PL survival is getting your keeper and centre back pairing right. Look at us in 2015 or Wolves this season, both in January.
  2. Would love to see our fanbase in Kappa and Macron's sizing
  3. See King Power out thread
  4. If these rumours about a new Thai ownership come to fruition, I think we might see an argument for a fans club appear in the pyramid.
  5. I watched the Commitments on Saturday - its firmly there as one of those films which really shouldnt' have won as many awards as it did but its still a very enjoyable, joyous watch.
  6. Yep six. Better than any other winger this season for Leicester
  7. Better than expected. Mind is blown that Keane went for so much. Some equally though aren't that impressive profits - Gray, Cornet and Collins for example.
  8. In the 20/21 and 21/22 seasons, we had our second and third highest revenues in the clubs history.
  9. He isn’t exactly what the club need because his squad building means he doesn’t have the ability to improve a player to the point they make a substantial profit. He has a poor track record of developing youngsters
  10. Which is more of an us issue. I read we are the only club to ever spent more on wages collectively in the Premier League than our revenues. That’s including a whopping revenue increased due to good performance
  11. He’s our best player post 2016
  12. But there’s a decent argument to say their team was promoted off four months good form and then their signings last summer were hardly top Championship quality. Players like Kaminski, Chong, Andersen, Brown were all mid table Championship. Nakamba one of the few with a PL record. Giles who had done well in the championship was sold in January.
  13. Naaa. Not enough consistent footfall and not big enough
  14. Fulham wanted to renew his deal for two years but he wanted more contract length.
  15. A lot of clubs have taken to doing video updates or briefings on the how and why of their decision making. I’ll try to find an example. EDIT: https://strettynews.com/2024/01/15/sir-jim-ratcliffe-holds-first-meeting-with-manchester-united-fan-group/amp/ Ratcliffe at Man U met with MUST back on January 2024, albeit I suspect that’s soured Equally even someone like Leicester Tigers are having a Q & A session with their board in the next couple of weeks
  16. Can only happen if people step forward to be on the board. We are apathetic as a fan base on so many levels. Btw I know have skin in the game on this. But I think there’s a very awkward question that LCFC fans have to ask themselves and I include those who are angry now and angry before. Have we really done enough to mobilise as a fanbase in terms of getting fans opinions heard? For me, we haven’t because we’ve been blinded by the success where the club began to inch away at the various areas they could monetise. So I find the finger pointing at various of the fanbase or groups or whatever, basically hollow.
  17. Re: Trust and Fan Groups I don’t think it’s any great secret that anyone in conversations with the club whether that be in a FCC meeting or similar mentions the club performances, it’s often answered with ‘that’s Rudkin and Top’s domain’, so we aren’t the people to ask. That’s why the fans to make their voice are in the position about misperforming of the football side of the business are having to resort to these methods.
  18. Leamington 0 Brackley 2. Att 1108. Very assured performance by Brackley. Only issue was that Kiddy and Scunny were even better in their games. So it rolls over to next week with the heavy expectation Kiddy win it at Southport
  19. Well they did including Fulham but we were willing to give three years cos we have shit for brains
  20. The one which had him scoring 7 goals last season for Fulham. Similar with Edouard, a decent record last season with Palace but we’ve done something there which in other businesses would be considered a Ponzi scheme
  21. We are ****ed aren’t we? It’s a dilemma that’s often swam in my mind that it’s not the club I supported any more and rather than me leaving the club, it’s the club that’s left me
  22. Fair play to UFS today for choosing times to keep it quiet really highlighted the void. I have to say that by Liverpool was one of the worst ends you could combine given their situation. Cruising to the league title, bank holiday Sunday in decent weather, 3k allocation and so so so quiet. I’ve been careful to be part of the England football is dead. But it’s dead ro what we remember it
  23. Not even competitive this season and still there are supporters to zero change and keeping it as it is That was incredible bizarre afternoon in a stadium where at least 30% either supporting the opposition or on a day trip
  24. Ahhh perfect description of Aiyawatt’s behaviour over last three years
  25. Went Lincoln United yesterday - had to play 5th place Heanor and could have won the title (UCL North) but its a three way chase for title. Nearly 700. Really novel place for a ground - off the back of 1960s council estate and then there was this beautiful cricket pitch/club house with a football ground next to it. Won 3-1 but they were very nervous at 60 mins when level. Thought they'd thrown it away. In the end it was Eastwood and Bourne hanging on elsewhere to make sure it went to the last day. Hilarious Lincoln can win the title at Skegness tomorrow....what a brilliant place to win the title at!
