  1. In January we underwent a significant restructuring of our football club, promotions for Rudkin and Kevin Davies, and new blood added in a new Director of Football with the appointment of James McCarron, this new brains trust and supposed new direction and fresh ideas has so far overseen the uninspiring appointment of Gay Rowett and now links to Darren Ferguson ……… This doesn’t feel like a massive shift in strategy or any outside of the box thinking, in fact there is a massive lack of innovative ideas or strategy and just looks to be more of the same tired, lacklustre, lazy recruitment.
  2. Cannot wait for the final whistle to blow and bring this absolute shit show of a season to an end. Hopefully 90% of the current first team squad will be gone and a whole new refresh centred around young hungry players and a coaching staff fixated on creating a professional environment and playing style built on high intensity, high press football, something that the Leicester fanbase resonates with and can get behind.
  3. please take part in this survey, this is your chance to have your say about how our club is ran, good, bad or indifferent, please use your voice. And if you aren’t a current member please take the opportunity to join either the full membership tier for just £5 or there is now a free membership tier. https://foxestrust.co.uk/12409/foxes-trust-end-of-season-survey-2026
  4. Amortisation isn’t the same as payment structures. If a new contract is agreed before the fee has been amortised then the remaining amortised balance can then be revised over the new contract duration.
  5. Inside Knowledge or a guess?
  6. Agree about the injuries but just have a feeling the Viveash link is also an issue.
  7. My fear with Robins is he looks like he struggling without Viveash.
  8. Will try and do the NW and Yorkshire games next season so hoping Stockport, Bolton and Bradford all stay down, Wigan, Blackpool, Barnsley will also be on the list. Might do Bromley and Leyton Orient if they can stay up. Hoping Salford come up as well.
  9. It depends if it’s a specified relegation such as premier league to Championship is X % and Championship to league one is Y %. It could be that there is a general relegation clause with a specified % each time.
  10. I think it’s more likely his £10m fee would have initially been amortised over 3 years but at year 1 the remaining £6.7m will have been reamortised to reflect the extra year. So roughly £2.2m per year. That’s what I think will be left.
  11. I would love Fuchs and Pearson to be the new managenent team, but if it was to be this you would have to question how much involvement McCarron is really going to have in his new role. personally Fuchs as manager and Nige as Assistant but with additional responsibility for setting up the medical and analytical side of the club, bring back Steve Walsh to revamp the recruitment and bin off Rudkin and Glover …..Aiyawatt might just start to win a few round if he showed this type of ruthlessness and decision making.
  12. For me this is the final nail in the Rudkin coffin, there is nothing to base any case of defence of him, the academy and production line of talent coming through was the only shining light of his ongoing tenure here. This season has even managed to destroy that, we hire a manager in Cifuentes who seemed happy to blood and include players like Monga, Page, Aluko etc but clearly was given the remit to include the experienced players we were trying to bin off or make use of them rather than let them rot…….. it has had catastrophic consequences, as surprise surprise they let the club down time and time again resulting in relegation and a bunch of talented academy players not utilised. Massive missed opportunity this season and could have massive repercussions on our ability to attract and retain top academy talent. Another example of our complete lack of strategy, no point having state of art facilities, top class academy talent but no clear, defined pathway to the 1st team. Just like our player and managerial recruitment our academy strategy is erratic, chaotic and a complete and utter mess.
  13. I was, what a game, this was the frustration with this Pleat side, we were capable of playing some decent stuff at times and had some good players for this level but woeful inconsistency meant we never challenged for promotion and seemed to just hang about in mid table
  14. He was superb on his return to the team, however given the grave financial circumstances we can ill afford to make emotional or ill judged decisions. Truth is he has a dubious injury record and can we afford to take a chance on a player who could break down at any stage. Personally i think if there is even a remote chance we can sell, get his wages off the books and cover what’s left on his book value then i am afraid that is what we have to do.
  15. I really like Jakub, genuinely think he cares deeply about the club, still think he is a quality keeper who will have a decent career, this season I honestly believe he has been dragged down by the dogshit standards and culture, yeah he has made mistakes but when you have a team in front of you barely breaking sweat it must be pretty demoralising. Hope he stays and becomes part of our new start and helps the going academy players bed in, think his attitude and commitment will be infectious and a key role in next season.
  16. The only argument is we won the league 10 years ago and the FA Cup 5 years ago so have earned the right to destroy the club and we should continue to be grateful for the wonderful miracle and shut up not say a word, clap and cheer our way into the abyss.
  17. He has been fecking pony just like the last 3 other managerial appointments by this mob, but and I repeat but be very careful what you wish for 😂
  18. This would be my team - Stolarcyrk Aluko Souttar Gray Thomas Choudhury Page Neale Hutchinson Monga Otchere Subs Vietas Toko Ali Amartey Donnelly Golding De Isle Carr Briggs all about next season, give the youngsters a chance, even 90 minutes at this level would be massive in there development and preparation for next season.
  19. Will definitely give it a listen 👏🏼👏🏼
  20. If he gets the gig in the summer then I think I will take a sabbatical, he has been woeful, I am hoping it’s just playing the media game as I am sure @CosbehFox said he heard Rowett didn’t want it and in fact was packing it in. Maybe the club have asked him to make positive noises in the media to make it sound attractive and exciting to encourage other applicants and candidates.
  21. I thought I had seen it all in terms of some of our fanbase and their desire to clap, cheer and support the lads into the abyss but last night took the absolute piss, to clap a player every time he touched the ball, a player who has repeatedly downed tools, been a bad egg, fallen out with multiple managers and then to top it off told a group of fans to ‘fcuk off’ is a new low. Harry Winks epitomises the absolute dog turd culture and standards at our club. If anyone wants to look at why we are relegated for a second time in a row and 3 out of the last 4 seasons, he is exhibit number 1. He has treated this club with disrespect and shown his utter contempt time and time again and yet some choose to happily clap along his every touch to show their support to a player who has milked us for millions and thrown the club and multiple managers under the bus. words fail me, but no doubt I am an entitled, glory grabber whilst the ones who are culpable claim to be true fans backing lads. I genuinely give up.
  22. I have been going since 1980 and like you I have seen it all……. I will ask you one straight forward question, who has put us on the verge of going bust? I am sorry but the only thing I wish and care about is my football club and the current hierarchy are literally running it into the ground. I couldn’t care less what happened 10 years ago, they were rightly lauded and worshipped at the time, but in the same way that does not give them a free pass to take the club to its lowest ebb and the brink of administration and possible liquidation, so I would turn this around on anyone continuing to back the ownership - be careful what you wish for …… because the evidence of the last 5 years, it’s highly probable they will be the ones who make us go bust.
  23. That’s it after tonight I am beginning to suspect that half these wet wipes clapping and cheering Winks every move are club plants, fans paid to clap and cheer when prompted, but like the honestly flags with very specific instructions what to do and when. It’s almost choreographed. Fecking disgraceful. The bloke has disrespected the club on a number of occasions and still these clowns clap him.
  24. But where are all the back the lads, in good times and bad, crowd etc etc
  25. Just been shown on Sky sports 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
