  1. I do not think anyone is suggesting a team full of young professionals but testing some given the complete ineptitude of some of our seniors. I said close season that Ben Nelson was ready based on what we saw last season but no a loan Alves is another that is being left too long to see if he really has what it takes. Monga is possibly too young but who knows. If they are not blooded by 19-20 it’s probably too late. Golding is another who since we spent money should be pushed harder. Experience has failed clearly we cannot do worse and just maybe we find a diamond.
  2. Remember it’s not a football club up for sale it’s a franchise. The average MlS franchise is valued at 720 million. Buying Whitecaps could then be moved to a major US city without a franchise hence increasing the value. On that basis e00 million is a cheap price.
  3. Just not good enough we would have been better off playing with ten men.
  4. PGMOL corruption at work again even Specsavers would not use this as an advert.
  5. Totally done with him hugging McGuire on the pitch after his offside goal just knocked us out. No respect for us as supporters or the club that pays his wages. That on top of his nonsense and complete lack of tactical ability. Leave him in Manchester.
  6. I was here before KP, before Mandaric, before Shipman have watched crap, watched average ridden the highs and the lows. If you think it’s low right now you have not been around long enough. Will I have a season ticket next year almost certainly yes. I did not want to go up this season and it’s been proven correct. I don’t mind the championship so much easier to get tickets, some nice trips. Will miss some grounds but not others. Every supporter attends for different reasons mine will not change.
  7. I expected relegation this season my hope was not to get battered regularly. I did not like cooper and I hoped for RVN. The fact is that I was wrong we were better under cooper. Who knows the truth but it is clear that RVN has marginalized better performing players such as Buanonotto and Okoli. I dislike Choudray but given performances he should have been given a chance given the lack of workrate and tenacity of winks, skipp and Soumare. I see no tactical or coaching capability from RVN. I see no drive from RVN. Him managing in the championship would be a joke.
  8. Just to be pedantic but if the board is sacked as requested Rudkin remains as he is not on the board. In fact the only individual on the board who could be sacked per se is Susan Whelan the rest are Tops Brother and their Chinese friend. So the campaign is to remove the owners if you want to sack the board. Your campaign therefore is really Sack the Owners. Grammatically that is incorrect so the demonstration you want is Top Out. More succinct and more aligned with the true aims. Or is it we want more and additional experienced football staff added to the board? Not such a zingy ring to it. If being charged per letter Top Out will be cheaper to print. Not for or against just saying.
  9. Been saying this since we signed him, also move Faes into midfield bring in Okoli alongside Coady. Play Daka up front, Buonanotto alongside. We cannot be any worse.
  10. Just talking to a member of the Spurs coaching staff his comment ‘wow that makes life easier’. You cannot make this up but it may work BDCR is so bad they probably have no plan for that.
  11. Makes it look like any potential buyer will have to dig deeper circa 450 million now. Prepares us for the upcoming change of rules. Will help liquidity. Two fingers up to anyone who says he has lost interest.
  12. Incorrect point 6 of the ground regulations makes it clear that you agree to any search and failure to comply is reason for rejection of entry and is a standard clause at all football grounds in the EPL. They do not require cause as long as they do not select you based on a discriminatory basis. They are not breaking the law they are complying with the ground regulations you agreed to when you purchased a ticket. There are many more important failings in the match-day experience that we should focus on.
  13. Done but it’s another piss poor set of questions designed to support a story that is probably already written. Too short, too little expansion on themes. The art of true journalism is dead.
  14. Standard for high demand games in the Premier League nothing odd about it. Other clubs do similar the pain is the walk you need to leave the Tigers 20 minutes before kick off to be in your seats. Food in the past has been OK it’s the same caterer as at the KP. No half time or after match element brings the price down.
  15. All clubs that have won nothing in the last 20 years at least we tried, succeeded and then failed under this leadership. Despite losses Top has always made clear he underwrites our debts and we are a solvent going concern. Has overreaching hurt us yes but it was a glorious time which I would not swap for the comfort zone of all the clubs you mention. FFP, PSR are all designed to restrict ambition and that’s what has happened. The leaders of the EPL and EFL are self centered evil who need to be removed from the sport. Anyone who thinks anything else is Nieve and Deluded. Is Top perfect no but if The ever changing quicksand of FFP and PSR did not exist I believe he would have invested and we might be in a better place. If you think some perfect white knight is going to ride in and replace KP think again. Football takes deep pockets of losses name me one who wants to step up.
  16. I will throw in Alan Birchenal due to the longevity as a player and ambassador through highs, lows, tradgedies and adversity. Players like Mharez and Lineker soured their status. Worth Ing is a legend for the pure joy of football he delivers. Vardy is not a legend as he surpasses all criteria.
  17. The reality is no one knows and there are so many moving parts unless you see a copy of what the club submitted you never will. The last 2 sets of accounts had us at losses of 181million. PSR allows certain deductions. I think that with the deductions and the KDH sale it probably came just below the 105 million. This year TV income will be up so maybe it’s going to be tight or they are predicting a sale. What has been submitted is a predictive set of accounts so maybe they are stretching the prediction. Of course they may still claim we were not part of the EPL so last year not to be included. It’s definitely a tight rope.
  18. Totally agree you need an engaged body even if we do not agree on everything. I see nothing from the Trust despite being a member. I see more from other trusts. The FSA is also not great I am a member there and see little activity. Small club trusts are far more engaged with their members.
  19. You mean like minded people cannot collaborate or is yes I support the motion is considered the same wording? Do the board members realize that responses such as this make some of us wonder is this really a fair and open democratic process. As a foxes trust member I am becoming more and more concerned. Point 2 should never have been made
  20. Ayew back in I don’t get we looked so much livelier with Buono in the side.
  21. Not sure the ‘lemming’ argument is a good one. Just because everyone else does it that way does not automatically make it right. I would like to hear the why the current board fears what appears to be a democratic reasonable rule. To remove someone would still require 2/3rd majority in favor. If an individual in a position of leadership has lost the confidence of 2/3rds of the membership why would you want them to continue?
  22. Can you share where they have indicated a postal or digital vote on the motion. The correspondence I have makes no mention of this are some form of games being played here? The motion makes sense to me and I will be voting for it in person unless something is being I acted to deny votes.
  23. Ask again end of January will not take much to survive but we need to be coached to defend as a unit and get rid of the consistent leave alone players behind the full back. If we don’t we are down as second bottom.
  24. True that Top did not return to his seat for the second half was seen sitting in one of the executive boxes. Something went on watching the body language of Rudkin and Whelan throughout the second half.
  25. So let’s be clear Leicester City Football Club no longer has any control over the Digital Ticketing conversation as long as they play in the Premier League it is now a compliance issue. In June 2024 the EPL Board as announced August 2nd 2024 that by August 2026 all tickets in the EPL will be digital. No more discussion. Away supporters tickets to be digital by next season. Promoted clubs get 2 years to comply. In that announcement clubs had to discuss roadmaps with fans which is what it seems is being done. The discussion is pace and exceptions. What was not announced was what full digital means and what concessions. I have heard that 75% plus is the EPL target for next season whether that is accurate I can find no documentation but it seems likely. The discussion for us now is the extent of concessions. If we focus on we do not like the decision we will achieve nothing the EPL is not going to reverse hence I believe the word acceptance.
