Hardly innovative is it, there has to be much more creative ways to create additional revenue, a partnership with Kasabian, a decent front of shirt sponsor and link up with Loros and Lamp would probably see a massive increase in shirt sales, merch and matchday revenues but alas we seem more fixated trying to circumvent rules and creating a massive disconnect with the fanbase. Moral compass is all wrong and I wouldn’t mind it isn’t working either we are the pits on and off the pitch.

Please don’t have jinxed my suggestion 😂😂😂

The Foxes Trust end of season survey closes this Sunday, this is open to all LCFC fans, giving you a chance to have your voice and opinions heard and please take the chance to join the trust with full and free membership options available http://surveymonkey.com/r/BLS29D9

Ruud, Marti, Kingy and Rowett have all called out the culture at the club, the only hope is the club can move on most / all of the high earners and bad eggs and start again with a whole new strategy. The hierarchy need to stop being so naive offering lucrative long term contracts and move to a more sustainable performance based model that focus on recruiting young hungry players and offering them a genuine pathway to develop their careers. There also needs to be step away from the current situation where certain players seem to have a direct line to the Owner completely undermining the role of the manager. It has to change now and the manager given the opportunity to stamp his authority, standards and culture on the club, and any dissenters are told to feck off and not be enabled by a starry eyed owner who wants to be best mates with willy pullers like Winksy.

I am hoping this is the case and it’s more Ferguson & his representatives getting his name out there to generate interest from other clubs who are also searching for a manager.

Ferguson would be as underwhelming as when we appointed Cooper. Really do hope we don’t go down this route.

Only a few more days to go, please take the 5-10 minutes to fill out the survey, your voice and your opinions matter. And if not already done so please join the Foxes Trust, it’s £5 for full membership and there are also concession and a free membership option. https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/BLS29D9

Brilliant pod fellas, Charlie Methven and Jamie both absolutely superb. After listening this I would hope any doubters will have been inspired to not only participate in the end of season survey but also sign up to become a full member of the Foxes Trust. loved the closing messages, not only is this a brilliantly entertaining podcast but as Jordan said it’s a real community. As you all know I participate in Prostate United where I run at least 5km each and every day throughout October, it’s a very early idea after hearing you taking part in the Leicester half marathon by possibly joining you and doing my 11th run as the Leicester half …..

I agree to a point regards points deductions, however my point is that the lack of cash flow is what will push us into administration, not a PSR breach. However continually losing money, £270m over 4 seasons and having a very high expenditure on wages, day to day running costs and future liabilities on transfer fees whilst factoring future revenues are all red flags. add this to greatly reduced revenue in league one, then I can genuinely foresee an issue in the next 12-18 months where we could be in administration as a result of not being able to service our day to day running costs.

Great post, I have been banging this drum for a while now, it’s not about PSR or league one equivalent, it’s about cash flow, and ours will have taken a hit this season with the drop off in attendances etc and matchday revenue which is critical in terms of day to day cash flow. Season tickets sales are not going well and the latest incentives show the club are getting desperate. what will be interesting is do we sell a player or two quite quickly and is this to satisfy PSR compliance or is it discounted on basis that the majority of the fee is paid upfront, to help keep the wolf from the door.

Same here couldn’t agree more, it literally takes 5 to 10 maximum and covers such a wide range of topics, there is something relevant to everyone, so here’s your Vance to tell them and if you do think everything in the garden is rosy then take the time to praise the club.

Rowett was appointed on 18th February when it was clear this was a survival only gig highly likely even allowing for a debrief etc that his contract will probably terminate at the end of this week at the latest. I would be shocked if it went to the end of May or June. I think it will be announced at spme point this week that Rowett, Davidson and Sadler have all left the club following the expiry of their short term deals.

Please take part in the survey, the more who take part the louder the voice. We are all seeing & hearing what is being written and spoken about us in mainstream media, the future is bleak so surely now is the time to sign up because the Trust will have a massive role moving forward in not only challenging and helping the club but potentially like in 2002 in the event of administration, the trust may have a role to play in helping secure the future of the club.

Wonder if the club will sack Passmoor before the play off

Wonder if we could persuade Sammie Smozdics to drop down to league one on a loan with an option to buy if promoted. Terrific work rate and great professional who would be a great fit and experienced player to support the younger players we will need to rely on.

The run under Rowett was equally as poor, King was down to 10 men twice in the first half of games, yes we completely shit the bed against Saints but to only take 3 points from games against QPR, PNE, Sheff Wednesday, Watford, Swansea and Pompey was the death knell for me, We could and should as a minimum took at least 9 points from that very winnable run of fixtures.

I am just hoping McCarron will bring fresh ideas and energy and one of his initial thoughts is we need to appoint early to ensure we are well prepared ahead of pre season

I thought the same thing, I think Wellens is being quite clever, realises he has taken Orient as far as he can and this will engineer his exit whilst massively raising his profile.

I have to be honest, I wasn’t overly excited by his appointment, I thought it was pretty lazy, uninspiring and unimaginative, however what I did think he would bring would be a ruthless streak, mix up the team selections, create a siege mentality and yet there was none of that. it was almost like he knew he was 3rd/4th choice his heart was barely in it and it was just another pay day. Given the severity of the situation, his team selections, tactics and his interviews has done nothing but continued with more of the same, he had an opportunity on a short contract to really shake things up, call players out, tell a few honest truths but he chose to either play safe or I’ve influenced and completely bollocksed the job. That run of results & performances from QPR onwards in a run of very very winnable fixtures was absolutely criminal. Should not be any where near the conversation for next season, his treatment of the younger players has been appalling.

Wellens or Fuchs both have that Pearsonesque vibe think both would kick this clubs sorry ass back to something like it should be.

Didn’t deserve to bow out with this shit show. You could see how much this season was hurting him unfortunately the crap culture and lack of standards meant he was pissing in the wind. Good luck for the future Riccy

Cannot wait for the announcement from the club thanking Gary and Callum for their hard work and wishing them all the best for the future.

Here lies the evidence why Rowett should be nowhere near a rebuild of this club. A dead rubber and a chance to give youth its chance and he absolutely shits the bed and goes with mostly the usual suspects. Monga only starts because Abdul is unavailable. Why not give Gray and Aluko as chance and have Hutchinson and Otchere on the bench at least. Instead we get the chance to see these tossers for one last hurrah and send off.

Let’s hope it’s right, I really do hope McCarron is given the opportunity to rebuild the club, would love to see a change in style to play more high energy, high intensity game with a forward thinking manager and young hungry players.

Errrrrrrr is James McCarron not Director of Football? Therefore he will be involved in the recruitment process will he not? And I am fairly sure Kevin Davies will also be involved indirectly regards overall club strategy. My comment is largely based on this restructure isn’t really delivering much in the way of innovative thinking.
