If we're honest they've always been clueless haven't they? I think a lot of the success was a result of dumb luck Right from the off with Pearson being forced out to accommodate Sousa , I know this probably wasn't KP directly but at the time it was presented that we needed a "name" manager for the potential new owners. Followed by Sven's kid in a sweetshop spending spree on mainly dross, which took Pearson a good while to sort out the wheat from the chaff and bomb out the bad eggs. Pearson rehired on the recommendation of Birch. The Trestellar mess that had we not been promoted in 13-14 and put ourselves outside the EFL's purview, would have seen greater ramifications. Possibly the source of some of the EFL's animus towards us currently Pearson sacked and then unsacked within one day. Stumbling across success largely built on Pearson's framework and then snatching the premier league trophy from the players after the trophy lift. Turning the celebrations that day into a King Power advert. (Ditto the Championship celebrations with the busload of Thai influencers on the pitch and hijacking the parade) Watch the Bocelli performance back and see where the camera focuses when he shrugs his jacket off. That's all we are to them and all we ever were, a global platform for King Power. Backing Rogers to the extent that he had free rein to tear down the entire foundation Pearson had built right through to the medical staff etc. Who in their right minds, having watched the Sunderland documentary, would have let Lee Congerton within 100 miles of the club???? And this is all BEFORE the current decline!!! It was always coming in hindsight wasn't it. Laziness and ineptitude runs through the club from top to bottom. Agents leading us by the nose and filling a squad full of lazy, arrogant, serial losers because literally nobody at the club has the knowledge or the desire to do any more. What happened to the due diligence on players' characters that the likes of Walsh used to do when scouting? Signing washed up players on a fortune in wages whilst simultaneously watching the likes of Brighton and Brentford et al employing our former transfer model. How is it possible to assemble a squad of such unlikeable players? We think back to less gifted players, the likes of Paul Fitzpatrick and Gary Coatsworth with a smile and fondness because they were giving it their absolute everything despite their deficiencies. I utterly loath this squad. Henry Winter recently alluded to the fact that Top is just really really thick and I think that's ultimately what it boils down to. I just hope when relegation is finally confirmed and KPFC perishes, that an LCFC is reborn that we can all feel part of once again. No matter at what level that might be

Tim Flowers v Arsenal 99/00 FA cup 0-0 Won 6-5 on pens. Ironically Pegguy Arphexad came on and got all the plaudits for his penalty saves, but some of the saves Flowers pulled off that day were top draw. Just one of a few absolutely unreal performances from him. For 18 months he was absolutely incredible until injuries got the better of him.

It was the first match post Little walking out. Allan Evans was in charge before he resigned immediately afterwards to go and join him at Villa. Ormondroyd scored our opener from right on the byline, it deflected off Linighan and Seaman sort of palmed it into the net. It got changed to an og. a couple of days later by the "dubious goals" panel

Only flaw in that plan is that all of those activities would presumably require some level of physical exertion.

Mainly because the bloke doing the negotiating is a P.E teacher/butler/horse groom and not a director of football.
