Rudkin speaks to Top several times a day and is the only member of LCFC staff that gets one to one time with the owner. Idea they aren’t aligned or Top is somehow misled is just an excuse not to blame Aiyawatt
-
The Dutch national team have been a shambles for years though
-
09/10 was the last season we played Sheffield United/Weds in the same season 11/12 Portsmouth and Southampton Proper early 2010’s vibe to this season with Ipswich/Derby/Norwich etc
-
Would also add the much maligned Chansiri’s business in Thailand generates more revenue than King Power
-
King Powers declared revenue is only around 1.5 billion a year (all public on Thai government websites) The company that runs world duty free ( a much more prominent brand than King Power) is turning over around 6 billion a year Sports Direct for comparison turn over 5 billion per year M&S turnover 13 billion a year King Power isn’t really that big at all even in Thailand
-
Puel wasn’t making the transfers at the time and he wasn’t getting the most of the players he had Cost us Europe two seasons running and cost us our best shot (at the time)at winning the FA cup in 2018 We should have finished top 7 every season between 2016 and 2022 with the players we had
-
Strong correlation between people that use these and unironically call Vichai “The Boss” in public conversation
-
Same Bob that hasn’t posted on here since the protests/relegation?
-
He is to Vichai what Prince Andrew was to the Wueen
-
They aren’t really that big a company in the grand scheme of things either At least nowhere near as big/influential their propaganda has convinced people in the UK eg Vichai and Top were only really well known once they bought LCFC
-
Believe it’s a drawdown facility KP made available in the event of relegation What doesn’t make sense to me is the club suddenly deciding this year that it’s been owned by Top solely since 2019 despite not acting that way in the years since
-
-
KP have been lending the club money which Top converts to equity The machine won’t keep spinning if KP don’t have the cash flow

https://www.trbusiness.com/regional-news/asia-pacific/aot-weighs-options-following-force-majeure-issues-facing-king-power/266993 Update from today King Power have issued a “force majeure” on their current contract saying they can’t’ operate on their current terms and survive Thai Airports are going to assess over the next 60 days the future of duty free operations Pretty high stakes negotiation over the next couple of months which will decide the future of the KP “Empire” then Can see why they don’t want Aiyawatt leading the negotiations
-
Yup New KP CEO is previously fromThai Airports who KP are currently renegotiating with Seems like the kind of move you make when you’ve got a business to save
-
Shows KP shareholders (Top’s family) don’t trust him running their cash cow on the day to day though
-
Looks like someone at KP has decided they need a serious CEO to guide them through their current troubles instead of a man child Hopefully they do the same at LCFC

I wouldn’t call the site redeveloped in all honesty Its one communist looking block of student flats surrounded by car parks and waste land -

The Carling Stand was more unique/interesting than anything the KP has to offer and just as modern -
Whilst if some unknown Thai Royal died we’d all be expected to be in full mourning for him Respect goes both ways

LCFC - Family Night Football memories/photos?
MattFox replied to Ryanlcfc3's topic in Leicester City Forum
Would love to know what happened to this demographic tbh The KP is full of people in their late 50’s/60’s The generation beneath it that would have gone to stuff like this seems to me missing -
Bound to be sadly That part of India is where most Leicester-Indians originate from
-
There’s a comment in there from someone complaining we aren’t more positive about relegation and not clapping the team off like we have done in previous relegations Genuinely mind blowing
-
King Power Polo socials are where it’s all happening On the camera interviews with Top and all
