Latest Fan Advisory Board (FAB) Meeting
Gamble92 replied to jammie82uk's topic in Leicester City Forum
It's gaslighting behaviour. It's how they've operated the whole time they've been here. Shame they're not so bothered about Top and Rudkin's impact on our mental health. -
I was watching our pathetic away display at Millwall, unfortunately accompanied by Millwall commentary and the Alan Young-esque co commentator without a hint of irony said "I'm surprised Aaron Ramsay is playing, he was always injured at Cardiff".
-
You can't talk about hiding behind anything. You're called guest.
-
He won't even be here next season. If you think he's this terrible human who drinks loads and hates us all then I don't think him saying "I'll stay" outside the ground to a bunch of Lidl shoppers in jogging bottoms is exactly waterproof.
-
You have to question what he's getting out of it at this stage. We keep hearing about this "saving face" mentality that comes from Thai culture but every time he shows his face he's being humiliated. What role does the independent regulator have in all of this? Is it just before you buy a club that you are judged on being fit and proper? There's no way you can tank a club like this and be deemed fit to run it. It's like organised decline.
-
Yet still we have fans who think it's King Power who "gave us" our title win and FA Cup. If you're one of the people who think that, or even just think it all just turned bad because Vichai died then you really need to look not just at the decline but the utter contempt in which our owner treats the club with. If they ever cared, you'd see signs of it now. They never have. One big vanity project that they were lucky to have great staff save from destruction after about 2 years.
-
Even this we have got horrendously wrong for years and it was yet another crack starting to show in the running of the club. We only just got away with the complete shit show of Top trying to flaunt us around Thailand after a relegation. Did we end up with one game played because they went in the middle of a storm? Absolutely everything has always been about showing the King Power family off.
-
He said that and then quickly backtracked in his next interview a couple of days later when asked about it. Said that these things often get taken out your hands.
-
My word people like you do still exist
-
You're joking aren't you? They're still paying off Susan Whelan's £870,000 buffet bill.
-
Well said
-
Your need to be ITK consumes you. I wouldn't mind, but I have to sit with you all of next season.
-
How do we expect our away tickets to sell next season and what will the allocations be like? I know some clubs like Notts County can give much bigger allocations in the cup but will we get these in the League next season?
-
I think a lot of people on here just like to degrade us. They have plenty of ammo at the minute but it's always been there. It's in part why when shit has hit the fan, we haven't reacted like other clubs our size would have done. I've used the word gaslighting a lot because the achievements have allowed this "entitled" tag to be branded from the top down in the club. Top referring to us as a small midlands team when he come in. When in reality I don't know any fan who wouldn't have been content with us battling relegation in Premier League. Even that would have been a hell of a drop off. But it's not hard to see how the most unprecedented decline in history has happened. It's been enabled by this self deprecation that's always existed at Leicester. Even before the Premier League win, when we were had exactly the same sort of crowds as Forest and Derby and better recent history we still seemed to have far more of our own put us down. Id never want us to be as deluded as Forest fans are about their status, but if you were to go on their forums any time in last 20 years and give them shit they'd defend their team to the extreme. We just have a bunch of fans who join in if anyone does similar on here.
-
I reiterate I don't think King was saying the fans are this and that, it just echoes that feeling I get from those within the club that we should be doing more as fans. Again, I don't think King is directly saying that but there's been too much of these rallying calls for us to get on side without giving us anything to get behind.
-
I think he took responsibility but there's still undertones of we need to all be more supportive. When in reality we were too supportive of this regime for too long and some still are.
-
Top definitely asked Rudkin this at some point didn't he
-
I'd never say anything bad about Andy King. Adore the man. But reading between the lines on that last paragraph of the statement he's just put out, it's pretty obvious that theres this idea the fans have in part contributed to the downfall. Which is of course absolute bullshit. Not saying King is directly saying it, but Rebekah Vardy's little rant at us shows Jamie was saying similar. Fatawu mentioned fans leaving at Preston along with Hamza. I feel like we were gaslit for far too long and the achievements of years ago meant many of us who started to see the cracks earlier stayed silent. Then when it become too obvious and fans rightly aired their anger, the toxic culture amongst the players just shrugged it off as us being entitled.
-
We weren't run well when he took over. The level of spending was so close to ruining us on all the same levels of Sheffield Wednesday. Literally identical. They went back and got Pearson on the advice of people in the club and him and his staff sorted the absolute mess. Then we got a non sacking of Pearson. Something I'm still yet to see replicated anywhere again. Like who the **** sacks a manager and reinstates him. The fact we went on and did what we did wasn't down to anything amazing at ownership level.
-
I'm sure he'd be more bothered about the club being in the third division than this joke of an event
-
He's flaunting what he thinks was his achievement when he's not bothered to be there all season and let our club die. It's people like you who need to give their head a wobble looking for any opportunity to defend him.

If you know anyone who went today I hope you're doing Claire's law on them

Is Top at this? When he couldn't come to actual ****ing league matches all season.. Any opportunity to flaunt when he thinks was an achievement by him and his Dad.
