The Most Embarrassing Thing Any Leicester Owners Have Done...

[StanSP]

After today's debacle (not that that's the most embarrassing) and decided to persist with fly out to Thailand/Singapore so close to the start of the season and not actually having a proper pre-season, what's the most embarrassing thing you can think of for what any owner has done at Leicester?

[Wymsey]

Milan Mandaric apparently signing Hasselbaink, but Martin Allen denied this had happened as he wasn't informed about Mandaric's interest in him.

It been repeated a thousand times; some of the decision making that led to our relegation was farcical. I would be massively embarrassed to have overseen that, almost certainly would have resigned if I were chairman/similar. Selling up at that point as owner makes little sense, but the financial loss would be deserved.

I'd say that's more sheer incompetence on various levels than embarrassment.

I would find that incompetence embarrassing, personally. If I were responsible.
 

It’s not exactly a ringing endorsement of Top’s judgement and/or decision making ability is it. He should be embarrassed.

Milan Mandaric taking us down to the 3rd tier for the first and only time in our history is pretty embarassing

The goings on that led to relegation last season are as embarrassing as they are shameful and the hierarchy have had such an easy ride for it. Even had the brass neck to take issue with supporters being unhappy about it.

Jon Elsom not backing Oniell with more money but giving Peter Taylor a fortune…. Trumps all surely

Administration end of conversation.

Have to agree entirely

[Wasyls Pec Deck]

Enzo when asked about the Thai player we have signed at the press conference the other day, and who apparently he has not heard of, was pretty embarrassing - and not for Enzo etc…

 

Probably more so as Top was sat next to him.

Thinking about getting the football club and the Tigers rugby club to potentially use the same stadium.

Not swapping the Family Stand with the Kop

I think that just illustrated what a mess we were in at that point. Similar to how Coventry etc ended up at Northampton.

Yeah letting the seats fade to sky blue has to be up there. Cov will feel like it's a home game in 2 weeks.

What we need is a poll …..

At least he relegated what was already a sinking ship. Our current leadership have taken us from the brink of Champions league football to the 2nd tier. Whilst increasing the expenditure. Quite a feat.

Both the club and a large chunk of fans buying into the Tete hype, just because he was Brazillian is up there for me in recent times. 

 

I'd be here all day listing stuff from last season to be honest...

[KFS]

Wheeling out a ****ing photo of the Thai king after every season used to be it for me 

[Foxdiamond]

Selling Derek Dougan

[OntarioFox]

The coconuts after matches were cringe too. Always pissing it down after a loss and then giving the fans heavy projectiles that you look a tw*t holding. 

[BenTheFox]

Not in terms of incompetence, but in terms of pure cringe...
