Thank you - done.

[Yes N'Didi]

I have never met you, nor you me, but you have had a large influence on my life. My beautiful son was born in one of the hospitals in which you so generously gave significant financial investment. I attended a University which you so kindly supported both financially and in spirit.

 

And then there’s my football club.

I firmly believe that without your vision and direction, Leicester City Football Club would not exist. When you took over, this football club needed hope. And you gave it hope. The hope to be better. The hope to reach out to the community. The hope to aspire beyond its reach. A path to achieve success. You showed patience and respect. And when we were promoted to the Premier League, our supporters were overjoyed at the success you game us.

 

But you always aspired higher. You believed in more. When you announced a five-year plan to be in the Champions League, you were ridiculed by many in the media. But you never let anyone tarnish your unwavering vision and belief.

 

When Leicester City won the Premier League, you brought the community together. You put Leicester City in every news paper, on every television Chanel across the planet. You made memories that will last with me a lifetime. You gave children across the City the pleasure of knowing that the team their fathers made them support through years of suffering as a child were better than every other team they came up against. You gave hope to every football team in the World that no matter who they were, they could achieve the impossible if they believe enough. You created the most incredible sporting story ever told. For this simple reason, the fact that this happened to my football team, I will be forever grateful.

 

Since you arrived in Leicester, you made people smile. Whether it was as simple as a beer or a doughnut, giving teddy bears to children, or simply enjoying interacting with supporters wherever you went, I have never met a fellow Leicester City supporter with a bad word to say about you. Your generosity and spirit showed in everything you did, and defined the person that you were.

 

It is perhaps cruel that so many people could never thank you for everything you did, the memories you have created, and the lives you have impacted. But I hope that wherever you are you are smiling, knowing how many peoples lives you touched.

 

Leicester City, nor the city of Leicester, may ever meet someone like you again. You were one of a kind. We scaresly deserved the kindness and belief you showed in this city. But we are eternally grateful for it.

 

You will never be forgotten. When in years to come, when children around the world turn to their parents and ask them what the greatest sporting story ever told is, you are the reason the response will always be ‘let me tell you about the time Leicester City won the Premier League.’

 

And for this, no words I can say will ever be enough to say from the bottom of my heart, thank you Vichai.

I expect they'll be moderated first and published online at a later date

 

[weller54]

Done... Through tears. 

[Spudulike]

I've written mine over and over again and still can't express exactly what I want to say.

 

I got there eventually, I think.

Took me ages to write mine, too. A lot of things I felt I needed to say, but the overwhelming comment is simply thank you. Difficult to write, for sure. 

[Kendal Fox]

Thank you for this. Done.

[Nick]

A man who led. 

 

A man who has left a legacy of pro-social modelling that inclusively spans simply the most diverse range of people. An assured man who genuinely reached out and positively influenced, inspired, aided, empathised and gave hope, faith and direction to people regardless of wealth, health or social status. 

 

A remarkable human legacy which will be admired and remembered by a generation.

[ElusiveEd]

Done.

Done - tearfully and very difficult to express exactly what I wanted to say. 

[Trav Le Bleu]

Done. Hopefully can get down tomorrow.

[Vince Vega]

Done.  Will try to get down to the ground again to sign one of the physical books this time.

Khun Vichai, where do I begin? How can I truly express the sorrow I have been feeling since the news of your tragic passing hit me? 

I never had the great pleasure of meeting you but my God have you had an impact on my life that words can’t truly express. I feel so gutted to have lost you. You were the kindest, most loving and generous man we could have hoped to lead our great club. The hole that your passing will leave is huge but you the now healthy and thriving Leicester City family are so lucky to have had you here for those incredible 8 years. Thank you for all the free stuff, the scarves and the beer, the doughnuts and the t-shirts. But most of all, just thank you for the memories. Thank you for giving us all the best days of our lives. Rest in peace our friend and our chairman.  You are one of our own.
