Protest against Rudkin

[99 Problems]

There needs to be a fan protest against our DoF who is the first point of accountability for the absolute shambles we find ourselves in. While Top bears ultimate responsibility - Rudkin is the most influential voice at the King Power and bears responsibility for the footballing operations and direction of the club. I don’t think anyone could argue that as DoF he has utterly failed in the last 2 years.
 

I think the West Ham game would be the perfect opportunity to make our feelings known to Top. We are surely down by that point anyway so it’s not going to influence our fate. Ultimately if we don’t let Top know how WE the fans feel about how our club is being run then NOTHING will change 

 

We need a new structure in place at board level to bounce back. Now how do we hire a fecking plane?

[FoxSinceBirth]

The bloke is a professional Arse licker and has made a successful career of cozying up to the chairman. 

 

There is no way this man will be sacked.

I'm surprised there wasn't chants last night to be honest.

Yep, there were from the singing section. Still had people turn around to gawp at you like you had 15 heads for doing it though.

Probably no idea who Rudkin is

Exactly the reason any protest will not work at the ground. Too many complete weirdos. 

 

The types who listen to radio Leicester in the daytime

After seeing him whispering into Top’s ear last night there’s absolutely zero chance he’s leaving this club anytime soon. If Top had anything about him he wouldn’t have been near the bloke last night

[HitchinFox]

He's done a decent job over the years – especially in the early years. But like often happens, he's become too comfortable and stagnant in his role. It's clear he now loves the idea of being DoF more than the job itself. 

 

But, with power and hefty paychecks come responsibility and liability. Some shocking decisions have been made on the footballing side of things over the past 12 months. And the buck stops with him.  

 

Time to go, Jon.

And I think this is why fans aren’t being more vocal. Imagine how awkward it could be with large Rudkin out banners as he’s sat there next to Top. He needs to feel the pressure otherwise we silently let this club slide into oblivion

I can add to this, I was in the corner below the singing section and joined in with this chant, I easily got 5 looks of go die you evil cockroach from around me.

Just move him to director only and get a real sporting director in.

[CosbehFox]

Worth remembering no ****er knows who he is. He doesn’t entertain media requests. He hides from the scrunity 

[Gamble92]

We're in an era where the structure of a football club in England has evolved so much, yet the mindset of football fans as a whole hasn't caught up. People still live in a world where the manager is like Alex Ferguson and in control of everything. 

 

Rudkin is an absolute disgrace

 

[Onions]

Let’s just add a little bit of balance to this; 
 

He’s been at Leicester longer than most of you have been alive, in his first full season as DOF we won the league.

 

He’s has a great track record in his other roles at the club. 

 

I point this out, because people act like he’s done nothing for the club.

He was under qualified for the role in the first place. 
 

What has he actually done for the club, in my opinion he has just been in the right place at the right time and rode on everyone else’s coat tails.

 

Total fraud but an expert brown noser.

Such as??

 

The academy is a bombscare

[ian__marshall]

Not a fan personally and think a lot of our decline is down to him being completely out of his depth. Nothing personal just think you need to be connected in the football world to do a job like that well in the Premier League. 

 

That said I really didn't see the point of the chants last night. Seemed a bit tinpot as it's very unlikely it'll lead to change and isn't really the platform to get the message across to the owner and the board. Furthermore whilst I'd wholeheartedly agree Rudkin is culpable in our demise, if truth be told he's one of many responsible.

Let me counter that. 
 

The foundations for winning the league were not built with Jon Rudkin as DoF - he was relatively new in the role when it happened

 

He has overseen a shift away in the last 2 years from a recruitment model implemented under Vichai with disastrous results. This has resulted in scouts leaving the club who have become despondent over no longer being listed to 

 

He has overseen a situation where £120m of assets are leaving the club for free. Iheanacho has 12 months left on his contract and will likely now not sign another with his value now diminished 

 

He has overseen the appointment of Lee Congerton on Brendan Rodgers recommendation which resulted in a terrible recruitment window or 2021 

 

He has been responsible for handing out ridiculous wages to average players resulting in Leicester having the 8th highest wage bill in the PL while sitting in 19th

 

He failed to act decisively on Rodgers and reportedly was involved in handing him an unprecedented amount of power 

 

He is responsible for the direction of this football club and we have gone from a top 6 FA cup winning team to the championship in 18 months

There was a moment at full time where it looked like Top was gesturing at the empty seats in bewilderment and Rudkin was whispering something then.

 

Said it all for me, they think we should be happy still clearly

[filbertway]

Literally the best thing Rudkin did was hire Macia and Puel. He then let their good work be completely destroyed. 

 

The bloke hasn't got a clue and serves no useful purpose. Dan Ashworth is absolutely miles ahead of this fraud. Mad that they're even doing the same job at the same level

 

He has absolutely no plan and it's a roll of the dice whether the staff he employs will help or hinder the club.

[Guest bennytwohats]

I’m looking forward to all of the people who blamed fans for this situation stepping up here and leading by example.

Top doesn't listen , that's the problem ! He known of the unrest from the supporters for well over 18 months, turned a deaf un !

I get those looks every time I raise my voice. It's like some think they are at church.
