Post 8 - The figure speaks in a very deep voice. It's certainly not Top, Susan or Jon (as Jon's still stood behind you) "You know that man behind you now?" "Jon" you say? "Yes Jon" the figure says in a deep booming voice... "Yeees?" You say confused. "WELL HE'S GOT SOMETHING HE WANTS TO SHOW YOU" At this point you see a faint glow of a fire escape - do you: Run to the fire escape (post 9) Turn and face Jon (post 10)

Post 7 - You see a shadowy figure sat at the desk Infront of you. The room is completely silent. "Top is that you?" TOP??" You shout... The door closes behind you. Continue to stage 8

To be honest I had a lot more planned but the hyperlinking and edit timer might stop me here.

Post 6 - the door creeks open like something out of a movie you've watched all too often. There is a strange glow and electric feel in the air. You hear a voice that says "It's too late. There's no turning back" Do you turn back and run (post 2) Enter the room (Post 7)

Post 5 - "Hey I thought you were the new BC Game representative for a moment! - I see you're just a fan. Anyway, come to this room down this corridor - I have someone who wants to meet you. You notice this is the only corridor without CCTV and for some strange reason, Jon is looking a bit nervous. Do you, turn around and leg it - (go to post 2) Follow him down the corridor - (go to post 6)

Post 4 - you enter the reception area lit in bright blue and welcoming. Did someone leave these lights on on purpose? A man appears and introduces himself as Jon Rudkin. He looks a little restless but invites you through the maglock door into the building. Do you turn around and flee (post 2) Do you follow him into the building (post 5)

Post 3 - you drive forward into the carpark. You see 3 expensive cars parked up with the registrations TOP1, J0N69 and SUS4N1. You park in-between them. Do you turn around and drive off (post 2) Enter the King power (post 4)

Post 2 you turn around and drive off. The KP just a small reflection in your rear view mirror. You wonder what might have been if you had continued...

Mods give me a moment. Post 1 - You enter the King Power carpark stadium on a Friday night. You're surprised to find the guard asleep at the gatehouse, you look closer as you drive by and it looks a bit like a manaquin you might see in Debenhams. Do you turn the car around and drive off (post 2) Continue and park up (post 3)

This ref was so consistent with his inconsistentcy it actually seemed to level out for both teams eventually.

Has not only been a poor but been a liability at times for a while now.

Any manager at any level has to get the basics right. 1 Have fight and 100% commitment 2 Have a sound tactical approach that suits the players. 3 Be able to score goals as it is impossible to win games with out that. I know that sounds simple but we don't do any of those 3 things and we're doing nothing to address any of them. I remember listening to Pep once talking about Man City winning titles and he said that despite having more talented players on paper it was such a fine margin winning any football match. His players had to be on it all the time, no matter the opposition and he just made sure whoever they were playing the fight and commitment was always there as slight drop would be 'end of the world' stuff. You look at us and we have this arrogance about us that stinks. We're rotton to the core.

I think he could make his own decision. He's not a child.

Big Nige and the club just works. He's got nearly a 50% win percentage with us over his spells and has struggled to hit half that in his spells elsewhere. Yes, his health is a concern but what I'd love about him is that those poisonous players would just not play with his standards and we'd be guaranteed desire and work on the pitch.

Why does he seem a decent bloke. He's basically lied about what he said he was going to do.

Warning signs have been there since early in the season. He's a complete lier and absolutely clueless. I can't feel sorry for these managers as they get big pay offs for under performing and I'd imagine when he does go he will be set for life. Only man that could potentially make a difference is Big Nige under this regime I feel. Any other manager is just pointless until we get rid of the root poison - Top.

Will be interesting to see if he's got a role to play, even on the bench, with Stol injured.

Could be fake that statement

If Marti is appointing staff It looks like we're doubling down on him.

Getting relegated to L2, although very unlikely, would be pretty cool as the L2 title is the only one missing domestically for most fans "In my lifetime" bragging rights. Imagine being able to say you've won L2, L1, Championship,. Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup and Charity Shield in your lifetime and you're only in your mid twenties! Really regret not pushing for the Europa and Conference Leagues as they were very achievable at the time. Only 3 rounds away from winning the Champions League too. Ridiculous club.

Does anyone else read this topic title as he's sold the club each time 😂

Rewind 21 years to the day. Micky Adams had recently been sacked after a tricky start to the Championship campaign following relegation. We currently have Dave Bassett in as caretaker. Next week we are about to appoint Craig Levien as new manager who guides us to finish 15th. Our top goal scorer is David Connolly with 13 goals that season. Foxestalk has recently been born and some of the early topics sound very familiar to todays! Poster Guest Bryan with one of the first topics in the summer of 2004 (didn't @Marklose some topics after accidentally deleting them??) is after loans and frees: "Who can we buy for free? Since we haven't got any money who are we gonna buy players? Since when did all the press think we have got money to spend? But on the other hand we could loan about 3 players. They would have to be players who are experienced, not too old (under 30yrs old) and not getting a game at their clubs. We need Partridge, Connolly and how about bringing back Charlie Miller. We could sneek in with a last minute bid to bring him back." @glen31 is worried about the campaign: "anyone else here think we may struggle next season" @Sparkyreplies feeling very confident after relegation: "no way will we finish outside top 6 . dublin is still a good div 1 striker and if we got connolly that partnership would be devastating.. keep the faith micky knows what he is doing . the 1st couple of friendlys are all about fitness so i wouldnt worry which front 2 he picks" @Mark isn't sure and is worried about losing Izzet "How can you say that? Its a well known fact we're an extremely poor side without Izzet, no one could replace him, especially with no money Playoffs if we're lucky" @Craig has noted the club perhaps not putting the fans first! ":lol: apparently, according to Fidler, the club have placed a block of seats to the right of L1, meaning those fans who think they're going to be sitting next to the away fans will infact be sitting next to some people who bought a single match ticket" @Scow isn't surprised "The club don't surprise me anymore - One disaster after another - I've learned to accept it, although I shouldn't really." Going to the first page of topics makes you realise we've now completed that circle. Imagine what those posters were in for 11 years later at 180 degrees! What worries me about today is not one poster back then mentioned attitude or desire. We were just crap. It's a great read those topics from the early days if you have time.

Possibly one of the worst performances I can remember. If he's not dropped out of the squad completely then Marti is just more of a joke than you could imagine. I mean you could play Faes there or anyone really!

He should be sacked at 17:00

@Phil MitchellBilly Mitchell on for Millwall!
