Where does Neville fit in all of this?

I'm still trying to work out what he was doing on deadline day running back and forth from his car with forms and paperwork. 

 

Surely we should have facilities and an IT network in place at the Training ground so we don't have to keep running things down to the stadium.

I'm sure the club will have a bank of lawyers on this case and wanting Silva to be here in time for Chelski now might not be an option, FIFA have shown how petty they can be glass houses and stones come to mind with FIFA ?

This will be sorted soon I'm sure we'll be going in with an appeal asap and the pedantic FIFA will then reverse their original decision !

FIFA. -   Supposedly exist for the 'good of the game'.  11 seconds late, if true, this is pathetic and unreasonable.  The Club need to day something about this and quick.

Hello,  is that you John? 

What???.. Can't hear you!!... 

Silver paperwork??.. No,  only some white sheets of paper with some bloke from Sporting's signature on it... Do what???.. Vax it??... OK don't worry I'll find the Vax now and give them a good shampoo and hoover... Leave it with me John!.... I'm all over this.

They weren't driving to the stadium - apparently it was another place at the training ground. guessing silva was having his medical so signing things at that facility which is a different part of the complex to the 'pod' as the sky chap referred to which obviously where the comms are.

DDs ridiculous transfer request hours earlier has hardly helped the situation.

 

We may be incompetent ourselves but that late request hasn't done us any favours.

 

Cheers DD for setting the wheels in motion for the predicament we now find ourselves in.

This is nothing to do with DD.  The fault lies somewhere and hopefully the Club will give the fans 100% transparency.

Can everyone just calm the fvck down and stop having a pop at Rudkin for FIFA's clerical twattery?

 

Let's just look at what Rudkin's done for Leicester City.

 

As Acadamy Director he developed:

Andy King - integral squad member of League One, Championship and the Premier League winning squads and big part of Champions League campaign.

Jeff Schlupp - integral squad member of Championship and Premier League winning seasons; excellent comedy value - Sold for £12.5m.

Liam Moore - intergral squad member of Championship winning season; sold for £2m.

 

As Director of Football:

Kramaric - signed for £9m, sold for £9m 18 months later.

Schwarzer - signed for free

Robert Huth - signed on loan & helped us survived, signed permanently for £3m & helped us win the Premier League.

Christian Fuchs - FREE.

Shinji Okazaki - £7m.

Ngolo Kante - signed for £5.6m, sold less than a year later for £32m

Benalouane - £6m - was very important last season, plus that tackle at Burton was hilarious.

Inler - £3m - not his fault Kante turned out to be a genius acquisition

Nugent - sold for £4m aged 30.

Wood - sold for £3m.

Amartey - £5m - utility player.

Demarai Gray - £3.7m - still got potential IMO.

Zieler - £2m - sold for £4m

Hernandez - Free - sold for £2m 6 months later.

Mendy - £13m - not his fault he got injured 56 minutes into his debut.

Musa - £16m - no comment.

Kapustka - £7m - no comment.

Islam Slimani - £29m - better player than he gets credit for.

Wilfred Ndidi - £15m - still only 20, a massive prospect for our future.

Tom Lawrence - bought 3 years ago for £1m, mostly been out on loan, sold for £7m

Danny Drinkwater - sold for £35m. (a £34.2m profit)

Harry Maguire - £12m - looking like he's the bargain of the summer; 23 years old and already in the England squad.

Vicente Iborra - £12m - Sevilla's captain. Massively experienced and in his prime.

Kalechi Iheanacho £25m - kept this one under the radar. Massive prospect for the future.

Jakupovich - £2m - experienced cover for Kasper

Drogovic - loan - experienced CB cover, still young for that position.

Adrien Silva - £22m - Sporting's captain. Massively experienced and in his prime. Apparently rejected by the notoriously corrupt FIFA, which means that if true, he'll at least get 4 months to train with the squad and get used to each other.

 

Not all of the above are good business. Some of them are really bad. But it's about time the guy gets some sodding credit for the really excellent deals he's done.

 

 

 

 

Top post. If this transfer is indeed a cock up let's see who made the cock up before the Rudkin haters bathe in their Rudkin out glory. And yes Cypress fox us Who see the bigger picture with all this are still here and you sir are still a clown ?

Don't disagree, but Iheanacho under the radar?? That was the most over the radar signing ever.
