Trav Le Bleu Posted 24 February 2017 Posted 24 February 2017 Can someone let him know I'll do the job for 30k pa?
MC Prussian Posted 24 February 2017 Posted 24 February 2017 What are the odds of the new manager being signed on a short-term deal until the summer, then damaging his shoulder in his first match in charge only to never to return to the club after that?
Kalacs_Orthopedic_Shoe Posted 24 February 2017 Posted 24 February 2017 Be slightly strange when our new manager has to leave to represent Gambia at the 2019 AFCON, because he's doing a job for them at centre half!
Freeman's Wharfer Posted 24 February 2017 Posted 24 February 2017 3 hours ago, Happy Fox said: Nigel Pearson isn't likely then. Reading between the lines, I think this is essentially what Winter is trying to say. Knows some of the players have asked for Pearson to return but probably also that Rudkin being involved in the process would put the block on that...
Guest Col city fan Posted 24 February 2017 Posted 24 February 2017 No one has answered the question. I thought there were people 'in the know' on FT, or did I get it wrong and the forum is full of idle speculators? Why is Rudkin untouchable? How does he stay on through all these managerial ups and downs? What's his secret? Cmon people, post something interesting...

You talk about idle speculation but you seem to be assuming that Rudkin is to blame on just that.
tony222 Posted 24 February 2017 Posted 24 February 2017 He did a fine job last time didn't he? People just love to moan
Guest Papasmurf Posted 24 February 2017 Posted 24 February 2017 Oh look, another Rudkin thread. Somebody start a new Pearson one now and that'll make my weekend.

Of course there's idle speculation on here. It's full of it. I just want to know a. Why people dislike Rudkin so much? b. Why he is getting the blame at least in part, for all this c. How he does seem to stay so popular with the management Just some decent, informed comment....

StanSP Posted 24 February 2017 Author Posted 24 February 2017 I'm glad John Percy has put something in his article about Rudkin and got something out in the open about him Quote The role of Jon Rudkin, the director of football and close to the Srivaddhanaprabha family, is under the microscope and the question has to be asked whether he has fulfilled his remit properly. Recruitment over the summer was abysmal, while the policy over new contracts bred resentment in the dressing room with the players not rewarded. The decision to present players with BMW’s also went down badly with long-serving members of staff who felt their roles had been ignored.
Wymsey Posted 24 February 2017 Posted 24 February 2017 He should just stick with the academy side of the club. Need an experienced and reliable person for the DoF role - it's an important role for the management of recruitment and hence not really for someone to get promoted to just because he's (or was) well thought of at the club due to being at Leicester longer than anyone else.

norwichfox Posted 24 February 2017 Posted 24 February 2017 I detest him with a passion, can't fully put my finger on why......his silence throughout speaks volumes (poxymoron)

From what I can gain Col (mostly from here), I think the resentment from a lot of people stems from the fact that he was seen by many to have been promoted way beyond his capabilities when he went from director of the academy to director of football. It seemed like a disproportionately big promotion at the time and his track record since being given the job (whilst not being as bad as some make out) hasn't been that impressive which I suppose only adds fuel to the fire of those who feel he's incapable of doing what is a critical job for us. A lot of people seem to think he's a bit of a twat too but I'm not sure how true that is. As for why the owners rate him, I don't know but at the end of the day their perception of him is far more informed than ours'.

ozvaldo Posted 24 February 2017 Posted 24 February 2017 He should have been sacked last night too. Useless, arse-licking fûck boy.

Farrington fox Posted 24 February 2017 Posted 24 February 2017 Rudkin is a Brown noser. That's why he's in a position that far exceeds his abilities.
