Anyone begging at his feet should **** off and support Nuneaton Borough where their ambition belongs. It’s not wrong to call this **** out for his horrible management of our club. 

If he told you he had learnt and was never going to allow this to happen again then he would be a better bet than someone who had not known a difficult second act.

Why did Rodgers get away with playing us down so often. Because Mr Chairman thinks the same. Lucky old Leicester. We have those little people joy. 

Our fans see what they want to see, he said dumb things, like many others managers   

Said before he is agonisingly insincere, but then again he ain`t my mate so personally could not give a toss and if you are looking for informative soundbites from him, more fool you.

Well that statement sounds like we're back there already.

You sure? The way you went on about him this season you’d think he was a long lost lover 

[Guest Mee-9]

Bet Rudkin wrote that and Top signed off on it.

We won the FA Cup 3 years after Vichai died mate

[Strokes]

A bit whiney, nothing particularly stands out as fighting talk at all.

I think he needs to pack his bags and take the cronies with him.

Yeah but just can’t see him going through his junk messages or whatever.

Ok.

Managing expectations for next Season already then?

[Trekerz]

Not surprised he's managing expectations for next season. Was reported that Jesse Marsch rejected us due to our potential approach to the championship too.

[Buzzell]

Sounds like something Rodgers would write.

[jonathan_ross]

Good generic AI statement, would have preferred something along the lines of, ‘sorry about the sh1t show of a season guys, as I write this I’m writing Rudkin’s p45, next season it’ll free beers at half time to nullify the pain of being 2-0 down at halftime in Rotherham on a cold Tuesday night.

This family has brought us more success then I ever dreamed of. Top has written off debt to the club and invested in the City. They have invested in the training ground and attempted to grow the club.

 

We gambled on Top 4 and narrowly missed out twice whilst winning an FA Cup and Community Shield. All of this whilst trying to compete with the biggest clubs that grow ever richer.

 

I am so embarrassed that our fans would abuse him. Yes he has made mistakes, but so does everyone else. 
 

What Top has shown time and again is that he cares; and I would far rather stand with him than the fickle morons who turn on the owners and players when things don’t go well. Honestly - some of you don’t deserve the success we’ve been so fortunate to experience.

Much of what you say has merit, however twice we were in a fantastic position in January to make top 4, and we never gambled or invested in either of those January transfer windows to help get us over the line. To fail to do so once was fair enough, but to fail to do so again the following season, showed incompetence or that they weren't learning from their mistakes, and has proved very costly in the longer term.

Well clearly he or someone who has access to his account does. He has almost 2k posts so must be a regular on there

This is bang out of order, I pulled someone up this morning for using terms that simply were not appropriate considering everything that Top & his family have given us. Quite frankly I don’t want those fans in my club, I can only assume they are a new breed.

Just to point out, some or all abuse may not be from leicester fans.

Top never asked to be chairman, and I'm sure he's had pressing matters with King Power which he'd need to take priority, his fault is probably trusting others to make the right decisions for him, he needs to learn who he can trust in the future, he should get a chairman in who knows what running a football club is all about and learn not to get too close to those who work for him, football has to be a ruthless business.

Where is he getting those abusive messages? No one is turning up to his Bangkok or Surrey based house. His instagram is locked off and not like he has a club email address. Doubt there are many Leicester fans cutting about on the polo estates.

...so by process of elimination,  it has to be social media!!!

  I wonder if he uses FT or is locked into his office, surfing his Twitter account.

There's a fair bit of cherry-picking going on from people who are going to stay angry whatever he says.

 

This is the part that's most important as I read it:

 

'Over the coming days and weeks, we need to reflect on the processes and decisions that have brought us to this point. What we learn from this experience must convert into action that makes us stronger and prevents this happening to us again in the future.'

 

We'll see what he's made of - and what this statement is worth - when we compare the words with the promised actions.

I find it odd that people aren't picking up on the italicised part. It literally reads as the opposite of 'more of the same and hope for the best.'

Paper planes through his office window with rude words on them?

[Mendi]

So he isn't selling up

You can understand 5th Place given our size even if we completely fell apart.

 

Relegation though is fair game no matter who is running the show. That is our base/minimum level. Always has been always will be.

 

To do nothing, absolutely nothing until weeks before the end of the season is just staggering incompetence.

 

Looking forward to those notes already when we are in relegation trouble next season.

 

Stick togther, we'll be back, solidarity etc. YAWN

Blatant attempt to divide the fanbase and paint those that offer criticism as outsiders and trouble makers

Agreed, it's a very common tactic. If you point out a few people being mean to you, people will instinctively react by saying people have gone too far. Now you've got people spending their mental energy defending you instead of calling you out for being a ****wit. And in some cases they'll even use it as an excuse to say we should all get behind you again.

 

It really shows you the amount that people are conditioned to worship billionaires doesn't it? A level of inequality most of us have never seen and people still can't get their heads round the idea that these people aren't just like the nice bloke who runs the flower shop around the corner.
