001merp Posted 18 January 2016 Posted 18 January 2016 Looks like Leicester Uni are giving our owner an honorary doctorate. http://www.lcfc.com/news/article/university-of-leicester-honour-for-lcfc-chairman-2908037.aspx?utm_content=buffer6ac84&utm_medium=social&utm_source=facebook.com&utm_campaign=buffer
Guest Sharpe's Fox Posted 18 January 2016 Posted 18 January 2016 De Montford to get in there quicktime and offer him a doctorate in feminist media studies or some bullshit
Wymsey Posted 18 January 2016 Posted 18 January 2016 De Montford to get in there quicktime and offer him a doctorate in feminist media studies or some bullshit Agree. Just a publicity stunt just to get a better reputation; surprised it's University of Leicester, as DMU need it more imo.
Adster Posted 18 January 2016 Posted 18 January 2016 De Montford to get in there quicktime and offer him a doctorate in feminist media studies or some bullshit Was thinking the same thing.
bmt Posted 18 January 2016 Posted 18 January 2016 “I feel very fortunate because I do what I love, so I put love into everything I do. I came to the football industry with Leicester City because of my love for football and the Club and its fans have already repaid me several times over with their passion and loyalty. It is a great privilege to be the Chairman of this great Club and an accepted member of this wonderful community."
LCCFox96 Posted 18 January 2016 Posted 18 January 2016 Another link established between the local community and our owners to strengthen their connection to the area. Don't see any problem with this regardless of the University of Leicester's motivation behind it. For publicity reasons or not, it's good publicity for the club so nothing to turn our noses up at.
Freeman's Wharfer Posted 18 January 2016 Posted 18 January 2016 This will all be about The University of Leicester looking to establish a relationship with him/King Power as a benefactor...
Len Finsbury Posted 18 January 2016 Posted 18 January 2016 Go out there and earn it like the rest of us have to! Honorary doctorates indeed! Pah!
Vardinio'sCat Posted 18 January 2016 Posted 18 January 2016 Go out there and earn it like the rest of us have to! Honorary doctorates indeed! Pah! There is someone on here with a degree? Wow... was it in feminist media studies? Apparently that's the only course you can do at Uni...
ozleicester Posted 18 January 2016 Posted 18 January 2016 I already dislike "doctorates"... I despise the concept of "honourary doctorates" Total joke
Vardinio'sCat Posted 19 January 2016 Posted 19 January 2016 What about we just give him the freedom of Peter Soulsby? Some of our posters would love that, I'm sure.
ealingfox Posted 19 January 2016 Posted 19 January 2016 Hope he runs for MP in 2020 and wins all the Leicester seats
artursteppe Posted 19 January 2016 Posted 19 January 2016 Nothing wrong with 'honorary doctorates'. I want one!
Len Finsbury Posted 19 January 2016 Posted 19 January 2016 There is someone on here with a degree? Wow... was it in feminist media studies? Apparently that's the only course you can do at Uni... I'm sure there's loads of us! You think undergraduate degrees are random, you should see what people get doctorates for. I once spoke to a guy whose PhD was in creative writing - nothing wrong with that per se but he was investigating something to do with cutting up existing stories line by line and putting them together in a different order to make a new story, or something like that, to be honest it was taking all my concentration not to laugh so wasn't really listening.

So he works in the media now?
Out Foxed Posted 20 January 2016 Posted 20 January 2016 De Montford to get in there quicktime and offer him a doctorate in feminist media studies or some bullshit that famous Leicester university.
