They're genuinely all on holiday and it's business as usual, isn't it? They'll all turn up sometime in July then wonder why all the good manager & player deals have been done and marvel over how every one else has got the jump on them again? Like it doesn't occur to them that they could possibly be proactive now because holiday. It's like we are literally run by the least productive, most ossified institutionalised guy at work who has the same exact start, finish and break times like clockwork regardless of events and spends most of their time running down the clock and thinking about the *insert boring hobby* collection waiting for them at home.

I would be pleasantly surprised if we get any update before July, such is my disdain for this 'leadership'. They're probably all on holiday now as they are all just clock-in clock-out, regardless of performance, gravy train riders lead by captain do nothing Rudkin. They are pathologically incapable of learning lessons from prior mistakes, so we'll be well into pre-season with no permanent manager and unfit players, many of which are still hoping to leave, as usual.

Is he gone yet?

Like we would have won if anything was riding on it 😂 Final spit in the mouth from these lily-livered pansies. Just praying by some miracle we only have the under 23s to come back to next season.

I wonder how much they offered him to bring his announcement forward to before the last home game? Bet the players are pissed he said no as they then had to put that 45 minutes of effort in to placate our fans.

Glad someone else can see how cynical they are. Next year the chickens finally come home to roost though, and I can't wait to finally season and fry them. 👌

It won't/hasn't stopped them trying to do that though is my point and it absolutely is a cynical attempt to derail any chickens coming home to roost (on KP's part, that's not to say it wasn't going to happen anyway, just that it is super convenient for KP) Whether or not it'll be successful remains to be seen, but as I said already I think you underestimate the response to Ricardo and moreso the nostalgia of the last of a great team and long-serving leader leaving (even though he may as well have never have returned from injury). I'm expecting more of a testimonial feel than the more toxic atmosphere it would/should have been without that.

I said fair enough that you missed the sarcasm. If I worded it without the levity and contempt, I would have said typical of this club to use Ricardo's retirement to try and take some of the heat off them just as they did with Vardy last season. I think you're underestimating Ricardo's impact as he's the last of a great team we still have left and most will now be in testimonial mode out of respect for him. Why you want to defend this revolting regime I do not know...

That's bollocks. Fair enough you missed the heavy sarcasm in the first sentence of my previous comment, but this now will be the Ricardo testimonial. And that is a cynical ploy from the club to deflect from their failings and use him as a human shield.

That was half-joking hyperbole, but this is exactly the same as last season with Vardy was my point. Turn the final game into a testimonial to make anyone giving them deserved flack look bad and gain them sympathy.

Beyond cynical. Using Ricardo as a human shield and turning our final game that should be about protests and comeuppance into a testimonial for the final player worthy of it. Exactly as they did with Vardy last year. Luckily next year they will have no one left to hide behind.

Almost can't believe they've forced Ricardo to retire so they can use him as a human shield and turn this into a testimonial. Literally the same exact playbook as last year with Jamie Vardy. Further proof of how next year will just be groundhog day. King Power Out.

I unironically brought that up a few weeks ago. With the squad we are stuck with next season, and the morale of everyone left at the club, I think we'll need a minor miracle just to get the 55 points needed to survive.

It's looking grim. We'll be saddled with at least half of them. Sulking all the way to the bank. I'd be amazed if we actually had League One relegation clauses in place to be honest. It didn't even occur to them as a possibility, just like the EPL relegation.

How much does one player have to take the piss out of a club before they would have any objections? Could literally anyone pull on a Leicester shirt and have their full unwavering support? What about Dennis Wise, or... who's another good example, back in the day?

At this point you've got the people whose complacency, delusions of grandeur and acceptance of (un)managed decline have caused us to spiral into the abyss, shouting at, and blaming for the toxic atmosphere, the people who have watched this happen and raised perfectly reasonable concerns. Hmmm...

What they said.

The lights are on, but nobody's been home for quite some time. Perhaps put some quotation marks around that diatribe also, as I almost asked if you were quite well? 😂

Anyone else becoming increasingly concerned that we are just going to redo this season in League One? Top has basically just shrugged his shoulders and flew back home leaving Rudkin to carry on business as usual. We all now know these people have a talent for learning zero lessons from prior failures and that leads me to believe we won't see any youth or any kind of refresh next season either. I fear they are still rabbits in the headlight terrified of not coming straight back up (exactly as they were this season) and will for that reason only trust senior players that have played at EPL or Championship level previously just as they did this season. The only players of that type we will have left will be those that are on wages so high we can't give them away and free transfer 30 somethings along the lines of Ayew & Bobby. If that is the case i think the odds are 10% we fluke our way back up with another Enzo-style stroke of luck, 40% we finish mid-table, and 50% we get relegated to League Two.

What a bellend. What I want to know is where has he leant to be anti Foxes Trust from? Up until this season they were cosying up to the club/KP for free tea and crumpets and to feel important or whatever. It's only very recently that they've become slightly more representative of the entire fan base. 🤷‍♂️

The useless melt probably feels like a victim even though he's brought all of this upon himself, with Top's enabling of course. I bet he's one of those simpletons that even though he earns 5/10 times what his talent ever should have afforded him, he somehow still finds a way to live paycheck to paycheck and is terrified about being made redundant, never to find work in football again, so stays frozen where he is like a rabbit in the headlights. That's the only explanation I can think of for why he's not at least taken a sideways move or demotion to OHL, KP, back to the youth teams, a seat on the board, or just Top's personal horse botherer.

We'll still be around long after Top and Rudkin, pal. ✊️👍

I hope you pointed them towards the Foxes Trust survey. We need as many of the silent majority as we can get to counteract the frothing KP-cucked lunatics that populate Facebook and the like.

So he's already on the way home at a time we should be having an intense internal management review and restructuring complete with hirings and the obvious firings. We should have a new manager announced before pre-season starts. With a new roadmap for success planned for and modelled for best through worst case scenarios, so there can be no doubt where we are, and what we are on track to achieve. This guy has a special talent for not learning any lessons from previous seasons failings. I would not be at all surprised to still be waiting for a managerial appointment a week or two before the season kicks off. With Rudkin still sleepwalking us into the abyss by running everything until then. Omnishambles doesn't begin to cover it.
