turkish14 Posted 8 August 2019 Posted 8 August 2019 May sound cringe but I’d love to see a Tifo with a pic of top on it, that would be incredible.
Jattdogg Posted 9 August 2019 Posted 9 August 2019 We believe in you, your dad and your families vision for a long term successful club! All the best, lets make some more history!

bfox Posted 9 August 2019 Posted 9 August 2019 How lucky are we to have such amazing leadership! We all feel and are part of the LCFC family and that it hasnt outgrown its supporters! I wonder how many other PL teams could say the same! Gwon Top!!

The way he dealt with his Fathers death, and then to continue his Dads legacy is incredible. 💙 What a legend this man is, he will be supported by all the fans, we are so lucky to have this family at LCFC,

norwichfox Posted 14 February 2020 Posted 14 February 2020 amazing gesture...we're so lucky to have such a family at the head of our club(s)
st albans fox Posted 14 February 2020 Posted 14 February 2020 The culture at the top of the club is very much down to Kuhn vichai and top - SW at the helm on a day to day basis is there any evidence that this ‘looking after of people you are responsible for’ was directly to do with top or is it simply the way the generally excellent way the club is run ???

Who ever sanctioned it would have to get tops signature on the expenditure cheque, So Top would have known about it if not even instigated it.

We’re not running a corner shop .... I guarantee you that no one would have woken top up to ask him ! the people running the club are responsible enough to authorise a £7500 spend !

Didn't need to wake him up, it was about 6 in the evening From what I heard, from the staff on the trip, we were told that he had directly authorised it. I don't know if that's true or not, but that's what we were told while sat in the hotel bar and that they were authorised to buy us food and drink. Regardless of who authorised it, it's still an incredible gesture, no other club in the world would even pay for such a trip, let alone cover the extra expenditure of the extra night, with dinner included

I suspect that many other clubs would, in the same situation, have had a long delay before arranging the o/night accommodation AND very few would have arranged dinner and drinks without any questions or limits - you can imagine the newspapers would have had a field day if you had been left in the coaches overnight so the club did the right thing for both you and themselves .....

LinekersLugs Posted 14 February 2020 Posted 14 February 2020 We have the best PR department on the planet 🤣🤣 I feel for Top one day this project may well hit the buffers , our history says that it 100% will, and if that happens the goodwill he had developed and bought will mean jack shit ! Football fans are the most fickle short minded humans on the planet look at poor Claudio and how he was treated

BOOM you answered my point perfectly thanks for agreeing 👍👍 if results slip and we get in trouble Top will eventually be blamed if it spirals out of control, as your say it’s no longer about loyalty or sentiment it’s just results and results and results so fickle football

Its his organizational culture that makes staff believe that is the appropriate action to take. Trust me if you work for a tight company, you wouldnt just do this for the heck of it. Guarantee 90% of other clubs or even companies would just play the 'its out of our hands' card. Why do we always have to put down any act of kindness? Not as if Top and his family need any more admiration from our fan base... he just appreciates us, its as simple as that.
