If you look up the word ambition in the dictionary, the definition will not read: "offering a young French midfielder with promising ability a 5 year contract and a base salary increase of nearly 2000% before he has kicked a ball in the best, most competitive league in the world." 

The club is totally and utterly on its ar$e. Every facet of the club is broken and KP are totally finished here. It feels as if the tipping point would maybe for ex-players to come out and directly criticise the ownership escpecially now we are being talked about in the media. 

King Power are done here. It's over. Problem is, it might just take them another couple of years to realise it. 

Nigel should have whatever job he feels fit to do. Whether that be interim coach or DoF, lifetime president or advisor. I remember when Bobby Charlton was on the board at Man Utd - a legend watching  every game with his aura and high-levels emanating through all levels of the club. It's a completely open goal by the club but one they will miss no doubt.

I'm absolutely fuming at the total ineptitude of the medical and coaching team to keep him on with a hamstring injury. Every minute he was kept on probably added 2-3 days to his recovery time. This club man.

Winks will be back in first team training now Soumare has gone.

Top is clueless about football and about running a business. That's not new news. What he has done is show a commitment towards address the criticisms of his regime by:

1) Revamping the technical structure at the club.

2) Moving Rudkin further away from the decision-making centre.

3) Be more open with his communication with fans.

Whether he can execute  points 1 & 2 well enough is highly doubtful of course but there is a glimmer of hope that he is listening to us. My firm wish is that he sells up but it sounds like we are a way off that yet.

657 springs to mind from last night.

 

It was down, especially over the last few months (one wonders why?!), so it will be interesting to see if it picks back up now that change is occurring.

Thanks. That seems a really low number which needs seriously bumping up if the Trust are able to put real pressure on the club.

I almost want him to appoint Martin just so more turn on him.

I understand that. It would ultimately accelerate the end goal which is to secure new ownership. Sacking Cifuentes was bad in sofar as the pressure was building. If a manager comes in and starts to win games, the anti-KP sentiment inevitably fades away.

What is the current membership number and how does that compare wuth our main rivals and other clubs of our size? 

Also, is the reform of the Supporters Club next?!

Brilliant result for progress. Hopefully the pressure begins to ramp up against the inept fuchers in charge.

The joy that we have sacked Jifuentes is short-lived as the same idiots will be choosing his successor. 

Our resident numpties can't even think in the box - nevermind outside it.

I can stomach players on high wages when they were signed for the prem. 
 

we signed winks as a championship club. In a year after we just got relegated because we couldn’t make any moves because of our overspending and psr issues. That is beyond incompetence it’s criminal negligence 

As well as Coady who I'm sure was on £75k a week and hardly played. Ridiculous contract management which shows how outnof touch they are. I'm sure allotment contracts given out in last 5-7 years have been in relation to Vardy's 125k. You can imagine Winks' agent saying 'Vardy's on 125k so Harry should be on 35% less than that as he has played in a CL final.' With Rudkin thinking he has played a blinder.

There is a lack of quality and a lack of quality coaching but there was no lack of effort tonight. Most of us want King Power out but we don't want to go down to League 1. Let's scrap and get enough points to stay up.

It's true but the Wolves fans will likely all be on the same page with their protests.

 

Because of 2015/16 and the FA cup win, for at least probably half of our fanbase and most likely more, it does not matter how bad things get now, because KP were in charge for that they can basically do no wrong now. That's why protests here will never gain enough traction to be effective as there will always be naysayers and KP defenders telling us to be 'careful what we wish for', that we 'owe KP for what we achieved' or that 'we were in League One once'. I think we'd have to be languishing in League One again for half of them to wake up. 

I totally understand. I have friends who think Top/KP/Crudkin/ have a lifetime immunity because of the success achieved. There is this feeling that they we are too polite to complain, that we should be grateful for the trophies, the memories, the doughnuts. It's very sad. 

It's a shame that the Project Reset protest was a flash in the pan. It was successful in so far as gaining media traction and putting pressure on the board. I see that after Wolves fan's protests recently their Executive Chairman Jeff Shi stepped down. It does work.

An absolute mystery why they are struggling to play staff wages.
