Not got a major problem with this to be honest, we'll not trouble 8th for many a year.

I have it on good authority that Winks agent was talking to other clubs before Xmas about signing this summer (presumably on a free) and was part of the fall out that occurred. Seems odd that would be happening if both parties were aware on an extension. I suspect they'll agree to rip it up unless we have indeed reduced his amortisation over 4 years rather than the initial 3.

The calibre in this thread is extraordinary

I grew a very fond spot for him from two years ago with his goals and performances in pressure situations and even last season in the Prem i thought he had a few excellent games. This season he has been appalling, whether it's a lack of confidence or motivation i'm not sure but he emphasises how much we have declined.

I PREFER NOT TO SPAAAAAAAKE

Props to Davies for pointing out financial risks (like anyone would at a senior level anyway) but the fact our owner and other senior executives didn't execute what needed to happen, nor final alternative measures for compliance (like many clubs have successfully done) is why I have zero sympathy for our club on PSR. This is what needs to be highlighted more in the press around Top and Rudkin, I don't think it's been flagged enough. Makes a mockery of yesterday's appointments.

We still breached PSR again in 23/24 when he was here, which seemed a calculated gamble despite raising nearly £100m in transfer profit and on Enzo having gone for promotion with an eye watering wage bill including new signings on big wages such as Coady, Winks and Mavididi.

To go from FC to DOF to CEO in 3 years in an organisation like ours is astonishing. When you couple that with Rudkin's rise without necessary experience, Monica's role despite such junior roles previous and right at the top an individual who inherited all of this despite perhaps not being ready for it and it's breathtaking. When you factor it against a backdrop of such shocking and swift decline, it's even more incredulous. Top so badly needs experience and he's got absolutely zero. You don't strike lucky doing this, this has to be stopped. He has to sell up and should be in no uncertain terms told he is no longer wanted at this football club. OUT

This actually harms any remaining believers in KPFC who were willing to give our owners and board time to right the wrongs. We've essentially promoted within in to the most important positions, staff who have on paper failed massively in their current roles and are expected to believe things will improve. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAAA

Agreed, phenomenal

This can't go on can it Lib? IT CAN 👏

Superb and an immense choice of song, one of my favourites.

We might get cancelled if we let Marshy loose 😂😂

Beast of an episode, would get you from the UK to North Africa on a flight. Gary Taylor-Fletcher was excellent once the questions started flowing, especially the last question 😂 Callum was also superb in articulating the reasons for protesting and done some without any aggression or malice, which is what was so impressive about Saturday's movement IMO.

February's has been a disgrace for me, but back at it now with 8 weeks to go until London. 16 miler at marathon pace in the bank today, feeling it a bit now though. Well done everyone in Leicester 10km today, hopefully some KP OUT chanting.

I suspect anyone who is staunchly KP in, would not listen to our pod regularly and would find me extremely irritating.

Only a matter of time IMO.

The problem is, he has clearly decided this battle is not one for inexperienced players so he's going to have to try and get 5-6 wins from 11 with a horrifying set of senior players and a rough injury record amongst the squad. Even with this brief little flash of positivity in the last week I thought we were still gone, now it's not even a remote possibility we stay up. We are down by a country mile.

Wonder how many bears Top is now going to have to frantically throw out to fully grown adults? Bad day at the office for Aiyawatt and his merry men.

We are capable of anything results wise, I worry there's minimal ability to handle intense pressure though.

I think we're long gone but hope i'm wrong

Also, I've been kindly donated an original 1996-98 LCFC home shirt by chatshirts.getbanged off insta and i'm in the process of getting it signed by Walsh, Izzet, Elliott and a few others. Will be raffling it off for the London marathon and memorial run for my mum. Massively appreciate anyone getting involved. 💙💙 Ric's fund raising page

He's our penultimate Gary

Got you a Gary for the pod 🙌🙌🙌
