That pre-match montage still being played after being relegated to League 1 is embarrassing. It's precisely this self-congratulation and lazy arrogance which has accelerated the rot.
-
It was all in on Carranza being the answer and clearly he was no better than what we had. Our recruitment has been awful since we appointed Rodgers but the loan business this year has been bizarre. Carranza, Aribo, Richards, Ramsey all massive misses. James and Mukasa have been good but 2 out of 6 with the money we paid out is not good enough. The striker loan has killed us though.
-
If Top is scared and doesn't know what to do next, he should pay for the most independent, respected person in the game or small group of people to conduct an immediate investigation into exactly where things have gone wrong and to suggest a list of remedial action to restore us. He has put all his faith in Rudkin and it has cost him £300 million of his money and an embarrassing dropping of 2 leagues.
-
Even by our dysfunctional standards, would be remarkable for him to carry on in post after the shambolic leadership of the footballing operations. I thought the revamp was a vieled acknowledgement that it was not working and Rudders needed to be making less key decisions - a promotion on paper but a lessening of influence. This relegation though has made that decision look even more ridiculous and his presence at the club is completely untenable.
-
I wish Rudkin's dad had.
-
I almost admire his ability to cling on and be indifferent to criticism. He knows he is bad at his job but keeps on drawing that big wage. He is the cockroach in a nuclear apocalypse.
-
The FT really is the best way of putting the club under legitimate, organised pressure and the bigger the membership the greater the pressure they can exert on these charlatans. I appreciate the work you guys are putting in on behalf of the fanbase.
-
More AI-based crap which is quite frankly insulting. There has been too many words said without being backed up by meaningful action for this to have any affect other than to rile the discontented. Maybe the KPFC cultists take it at face value and maybe that is who it is aimed at. I would have preferred no statement and instead woke ip this morning to read reports that Rudkin, Rowett & Glover are to step down. That would be real leadership.
-
It is more than football. Rudkin has become a kind of human grief blanket to Top since Vichai died. Also they are kindred spirits: talentless failures who are both too arrogant to learn and adapt. It's unfortunate for us.
-
It's the only way Top can retain the club and probably the only way we avoid administration. Rudkin is the architect of this palace of $hit.
-
I think moving Rudkin on would be a statement of intent in wanting to put things right. Hopefully he is thinking of cutting his losses and selling up.
-
KP are in the last chance saloon here. The only thing that saves them is getting rid of Rudkin. Golden handshake, a Rolex and pi$$ off Jon. Bring in a proper football man with connections and a winning mentality to oversee a complete rebuild. Will it happen? Probably not.
-
Another bad decision with no viable back up. I am if you lined up all of Rudkins decisions, it's a 20% success rate at best. Top will die on Rudkin Hill. What a loser to tether yourself to.
-
Quite a dismissive reply but thanks for taking the time. There is a lot of post-mortem and reflective posts on this forum and a lack of ideas on how we can fight against the regime.

After a restless nights sleep, I have been thinking of ways to remove the ownership or Rudkin at least. These are ranked in no particular order: 1) Grow the Foxes Trust membership - the trust will hold the club to account and do it through legitimate channels, so a large membership could increase pressure. I think it is 1k at the minute - 5k could make the club uncomfortable, 10k could demand change. 2) Consistent protest: same meet time (1 hr before KO) every game taking the same route. 3) Boycott: a lot on here, including myself, are not giving them any more money to waste and bring in hateful players. Without paying customers, all businesses eventually fold or sell. 4) Engage a co-ordinated but respectful and persuasive social media campaign against Pro-KP fans with the intention of educating and influencing them into changing their minds about the ownership. Will need to be creative. 5) Maybe somebody could write a book about Jon R - comparing him to some of the most divisive and incompetent people in history. Any more? These are a bit desperate but that's how I feel at this terrible moment in our club's history.

If Top had appointed - by accident - a genius DoF and gave him complete control of operations and Top just signed the cheques, we would be a Premier league team and nobody would be saying King Power out. That said, I absolutely want to see the back of the family and everybody involved in the set up.
-
Thank you. I looked into it after I posted that and it seems the loans total 10's of millions and the rest KP loans which assuming they will right off but won't be in a position to do that moving forward. I don't think we have £50 million of playing assets in the squad. It looks very bad doesn't it.

Divine Mukasa joins on loan - Official

It was a mistake but i was more disappointed with the sh*t show defending that followed. Somebody take a yellow and hack the lad down on halfway. It is so indicative of our complete lack of joined up thinking that our main creative threat is a teenager from another club in his first games as a professional. The way we have shelved Louis Page's development has been really disappointing. Same to Aluko. -
Brilliant summary thank you. Is the £200 million debt a genuine figure and is that info in the public domain? If so, is it all owed to Macquarie? The cost of servicing such a debt must be £15-£20 million per year.
-
I think that goes without saying. All the bad decisions have Rudkin's fingerprints on Removing Rudkin is one move. Removing Top means selling the whole club and I can't see Top selling up.
-
Seagrave is the ultimate white elephant. Built out of delusion. Best training facility in the country being sustained by gates of 32k - madness. The ground extension should have been job no.1 for KP to increase our revenue capacity.
-
I was introduced to John Percy the journalist at a party last night and after being a bit starstruck, I thanked him for his critical coverage of the regime and asked him if he had ever met Rudkin. He said not but immediately said that he is by far the biggest problem at the club and holds all the power. Percy said he is just an overpromoted PE teacher but we knew that. He is a Forest fan but said he feels our pain.
-
How none of these 14 managers we have had haven't thought about playing 3 CB's at is strange. We probably don't have a good enough back 4 in truth so need something different. This formation takes away the worst part of Thomas' game with the ball in behind. Mav could be an option up top. Lascelles leadership qualites introducded. Worth a try: Stol Lascelles Nelson Okoli Thomas Winks James Skipp Fatawu Mukasa Daka/Mavididi
-
If you start Jordan Ayew up top when he can't run, can't press, can't offer any tangible goal threat then you deserve to lose football games. It's a disgraceful piece of selection. We got away with it on Tuesday. Daka isn't the best but infinately better than Ayew.
-
He was my MOTM last night. His reading of the game is much improved and has all the raw physical tools and technical abilities to be an elite CB. Tackles: 5 Clearances: 10 Interceptions: 2 Recoveries: 5 Fouls committed: 1 Passes made: 44/51 (86%) - team avg 80% Goals: 1
