So beautifully done today.  So proud of this club, city and inspirational Vichai.  Thinking of all the families and loved ones affected by the tragedy.  Top and Apichet were so brave and strong today.  Immense love and respect xxx

This day will live with me for many reasons but Nigel and Claudio standing side by side really added to the emotion for me. Two characters from different Leicester stories meeting. It was almost like when they make a crossover TV show/film. Very surreal.

A very poignant and moving video, also very noticeable I feel how top featured very heavily in it. He's a young man who has had a huge responsibility thrust upon him but from the moment he hugged Ranieri at the memorial to the way he conducted himself today I think it's clear we are so lucky to have such people looking after our club and with people like Susan Whelan and John Rudkin (yes I know but give him a break) guiding and offering support, I am certain Top will deliver what his dad had dreamed and will be a huge part of his legacy.

On the broadcast we didnt get to see the tribute video with the cutting to crowd shots but was beautiful getting to see it in its entirety. Bit of an emotional day as my dads been in hospital for heart problems  but it brought tears to my eyes. 

 

We are in good hands with Top to help carry on the vision for the club. We all know he was close with his dad and part of the successes. It will be tough for him dealing with the loss of a great father but he definitely has his fathers characteristic in him and proud to have had both of these guys at pur club. We are with you Top and your family always.

Poor Top was so dignified and emotional , his father has left another gift to us all in Top but I fear for him and his future a little , his business empire at home will now come under focus and potential attack from those that will want to end their duty free monopoly , The Boss was a very powerful and well connected man , Has top those contacts under the same influence ? I now worry for this young man , his future is full of business uncertainty now , let’s hope the ground expands and we can become a self sufficient club. 

 

One thing forsure Top knows he is loved by us all now and forever

At the family stand end, a fan jumped over the hoarding, ran to Top and gave him a massive hug. The way Top hugged him back made me think he knew the guy but straight after the security team escorted him out which then told me he didn't and the hug was a genuine thing between 2 people suffering grief, 1 offering condolence and the other gratefully accepting. Beautiful to see and I hope the guy doesn't get into any trouble.

Amazing tributes yesterday. And I think Burnley fans deserve a mention for their part. They respectfully observed the silence, I could see them generously applauding during other key moments and many of them stayed behind at the end and applauded Top and the team.

 

Well done Clarets!

I’m so proud of the way the club, the players, the fans and people of Leicester in general have handled themselves over the past couple of weeks.

 

This is a very special club at every level.

“Fox Face/Off”

 

New sports thriller directed by Guy Ritchie, starring Vinnie Jones as Nigel Pearson as he faces off against Claudio Ranieri, played by Robert Di Niro in the aftermath of the greatest sporting achievement in humanity. Stuck between them, or some might say behind them, is Craig Shakespeare, played by Christian Bale - who gained 100 pounds for the role, which mainly involves holding two balls in the background. That isn’t a metaphor. Ben Stiller portrays Claude Puel.

I have to say that montage being played before the game yesterday was probably the most beautiful thing that I have ever witnessed. Everyone involved in the club should be immensely proud. Both sets of fans also handled it with the upmost respect and dignity.

A tribute befitting one of the most phenomenal men to ever grace football, this city and this planet. We owed him that and I think we delivered it, it was unbelievably poignant. I was blown away by it all, the tribute video was simply mesmerising. Rest in peace Khun Vichai, you will always be in our hearts.
