  1. If we stay up, I fully expect us to appoint Russell Martin.
  2. I think he is the kind of manager who will want players that are ready made for the championship. I'd imagine it would be similar to what Eustace has done at Derby. Maybe that is what we need. However, it would be disappointing if we don't see any signs of a road map for academy players. If we stay up, I'd happily take a boring season of being a mid table championship side after the season we've had.
  3. I went to watch Dundee vs Motherwell yesterday. Had a great day tbf. Den's Park is full of character. Still blows my mind how close the two grounds are together.
  4. It's one thing people who are very defensive of the ownership can't get their heads around. Most of them want Rudkin gone, but they need to realise that Rudkin will be here for as long Aiyawatt is chairman. The only way that Rudkin goes is if the club changes hands.
  5. Thank you for the therapy lads. Keep up the good work.
  6. It certainly couldn't be less relevant now, you're correct. For starters, the title win was literally under a different chairman. The FA cup win was as a result of foundations that were already in place. The main thing Aiyawatt did as chariman in the lead up to winning the FA cup was appoint Brendan Rodgers, and even he had been lined up whilst Vichai was still alive. Whenever he has had to make decisions, he has been found wanting. The absolute car crash of an interview he gave a few weeks ago just confirmed to me that he has absolutely no idea what he is doing.
  7. I really can't understand how any Leicester fan could belittle our club's history so much.
  8. I'd also like to point out that I participated in the protest. I'm 31, have a house and a half decent job.
  9. Well, given that people who have spoken out about the way the club is being run have literally been physically assaulted by other Leicester fans, then I would say yes, it was a risk.
  10. It was the protestors who kept Brendan Rodgers in place for too long. It was the protestors who gave two crucial home games to S & S. It was the protestors who signed Winks and Coady in £90k a week in the championship. It was the protestors who signed Skipp for £25 million. It was the protestors who have kept Rudkin in place for far too long. It was the protestors who got rod of a CEO without getting another one in. It was the protestors who appointed Cifuentes. It was the protestors who kept Cifuentes in place for at least a month too long. It was the protestors who wasted three and a half weeks and four games to appoint a manager who could have been appointed within three hours.
  11. Wednesday, Leicester and West Brom to go down, I reckon. Has there been three bigger clubs to have been relegated to the third tier in one season?
  12. Funny that the ones leading the protest were the only people trying to get songs going in the ground in support of the team.
  13. This is the thing. We are well past 'Rudkin Out'. That was well over a year ago. In fact, had he gotten rid of Rudkin a year ago, he would have been afforded far more patience. I certainly would have anyway.
  14. "There aren’t a bunch of potential owners knocking on our door." We've not been put up for sale. Nobody has ever knocked on my front door asking how much I'd sell the house for. However, if I did put it up for sale, then I'm sure there'd be interested parties.
  15. Exactly. I for one question if Leicester City FC are in fact by far the greatest team the world has ever seen.
  16. I don't actually hate the appointment of Gary Rowett given where we are. However, taking more than three weeks and wasting three vital league games to appoint a manage who could have been appointed within three days is obscene, but sadly believable levels of incompetence.
  17. Exactly. The bare minimum that anyone should expect from their football club is to have a CEO and a manager. We currently have neither.
  18. Exactly. It's exceptionally poor taste.
  19. "Gave his life for this football club" is genuinely offensive. He died in a tragic helicopter crash outside the stadium. He boarded that helicopter thinking it was completely safe to do so, when devastingly it turned out not to be. He didn't go to war and fight for the club.
  20. Cifuentes was sacked three weeks ago today. We are still without a manager and we're not even hearing any suggestions of one coming in.
  21. "Who will buy us?" Just a few clubs that have been taken over in the past decade or so having previously had toxic owners and are now better off for it: Sunderland, Birmingham, Coventry, Newcastle, Aston Villa, Portsmouth, Nottingham Forest, Derby County, Leeds United, Wrexham, Ipswich Town. I mean, I could go on...
  22. My response would be the classic 'don't let perfect be the enemy of the good'. We can have a few hundred marching to the ground showing their disgust as well as the plane banner. The plane banner wouldn't be my first port of call, but I'd strongly suggest that having it a alongside other actions is better than not having it at all.
  23. Gonna give this a bump. This is approaching the halfway point of its target. If you are actively participating in the march for the Norwich game, then I'd also encourage you to donate to this if you can. Let's have more than one protest action for maximum impact. If all you can give is £20, £10, £5 or £1, then you are contributing to the cause.
  24. I will be there, make no mistake about it, and I would actively encourage fans to get creative with chants and banners. However, it's in our best interest to not deface the statue in any way or resort to personal insults towards Aiyawatt and Rudkin. It will carry far more weight if we demostrate our anger in a positive way and not in a way that can be easily discredited. The central message needs to be that we are doing this because we care deeply about the future of the club.
  25. It's simple. If you want this football club to have any future, fight for it.
