This is what we need to be doing, rudkin out/ King power out with the Leicester badge at summer events all over, festivals,  sports events such as world cup Wimbledon ect... anything televised, can we get one at the polo? 

Should be done at every opportunity but knowing Nepo Baby he'll just give Rudkin a promotion + pay rise to make him feel better.

I can see nothings changed, rudders taking forever to appoint a manager, who will probably get taken by some one else by the time he gets the papers printed.

The man who built our title winning squad and signed our best ever players is in that photo, he deserves a lot more respect.

For starters, Rudkin should sit down and stop blocking Walshy's view lol

However, negotiating decent prices for sales is, as a matter of fact, one of the elements the East Midlands outfit often get right. Startling, yes, but also true: one of the few positive perceived aspects of Jon Rudkin's persona is actually being a ruthless negotiator and essentially telling the chairman what he thinks is best.

 

 

No point being ruthless if you end up with players leaving for nothing.

Can we stop referring to him as Rudders like he’s some sort of likeable cheeky crappy, Much prefer ‘that wan**r Rudkin’ when making reference to the cretin. 

It's not to indicate he's likeable, it's to indicate he shouldn't be taken seriously. 

 

An unserious man reporting to an unserious chairman working for an unserious football club.

Maybe we swap to Rudderless.

Plus all the salary expenses.

Anagram of Jon Rudkin: Junk no rid. Phil

Almost could be 'King of Junk'. But even Rudkin couldnt have enough letters in his name to provide that for me. What a loser.

It's laughable if it wasn't so serious for the Club Financially. The money he's cost the Club as well as our Credability in the game, and yet he's still here.

 

Any self respecting Man would have walked long ago. But I guess money talks.

You forgot to mention the profit on Tielemans, and many others...

Got to be on the wind up. Surely nobody actually thinks that

Bizarre isn’t it?

 

KDH - it was Chelsea who throw cash at everything and we took Michael Golding for £5 mill as part of it! So we actually got what, £25 mill for KDH. And he is now smashing it for Everton.

 

Barnes - despite the criticism he got on here, his numbers he put up for us over the years he was with us were very good. Not elite but very good/great. 
 

Both those players were the bare minimum we should possibly have got and even then was only due to the desperation of the financial hole we had (self inflicted) found ourselves in.

 

And even then, it’s not just the ‘big’ sales. It’s the others. Both to get players off the books and make something rather losing for free. A classic example was Iverson who we were offered a fee for, £4 mill was it, and decline. He then sat on the bench and walked for free after a year of us paying his salary. Tielemans, you can’t tell me there wouldn’t have been takers in the final year of his contract?

 

And of course, when people cry ‘but you can’t make there be interest in a player’. Why might that be? Presumably not the stupid fees we spent on players not worth it, meaning clubs (rightly) won’t cover the amortisation on them. And it definitely can’t be the obscene wages we gave them that nobody else in their right mind would give them could it!

 

Absolutely mind blowing anyone can’t defend the club let along Rudkin. Then that poster will cry we are negative. No, it’s evidence based!

Also for every Barnes and KDH there was a Silva, Musa, Perez, Boumare, Ayew, DCDR, Edouard, Faes, Kristensen, Skipp, Cannon, Vrstergaard, Bertrand, Coady, Ward the list is endless F**k off Rudkin.

KDH was a bad deal.

You looking at as KDH acquisition cost vs transfer fee.
In reality we were not capable of replacing him, he was one of the lower earners, and the fees were used to fund higher salries of less effective players.  From that perspective it was a bad deal.

I'm sorry, your defence for the Director of Football is that the rules allow us to count sales of academy players as pure profit? 

 

He's been far enough removed from the academy for long enough that we can't exactly give him credit for the coaching they received and the players they turned in to and neither were sold for a particularly remarkable fee. 

 

So what exactly are we giving him credit for here?
