But what do you REALLY think?

It's disgusting, it really is.

 

We have squandered an absolutely golden opportunity to be an English Villarreal or Atalanta. Both clubs from modest, provincial cities that punch hugely above their weight at home and in Europe. We had everything in place to do just that.

 

Rank incompetence, inertia, a lack of accountability and appalling decision making is why that's gone. 

[The Doctor]

the cult of king power needs to die, this isn't the ownership that saw us rise through the middle part of the 2010s, this is a nepo baby playing pretend at being a businessman like his dad, and absolutely trashing his legacy. Aiyawatt did nothing but ride on Vichais coattails, and it's no surprise that the longer Vichai has been gone, the more we've turned into a laughing stock.

 

If in 2018 the family had decided to sell up, walk away, and new owners had presided over the last 4 years then they'd be hated on a similar level to other chancers like the Oystons at Blackpool or Dai Yongge at Reading. Instead, people defend this incompetent twat because his father was good? in what other position would you ever do that, we're not going out on a manager hunt and going "well, James Pearson's dad was pretty good so shall we give him a go?'

[Paul_lcfc_1988]

Will always be greatful for what Vichai did for this club, BUT top has ultimately brought all that achievement down brick by brick!!!!
 

It’s a joke people say can’t criticise this bloke cause of all that’s been achieved all he’s done is ruin this club due to his blind loyalty! 
 

time to sell up top! Thanks for the memories but it’s Leicester city fc not king power fc

pretty spot on for me, what was built under NP, SW, CS and the foundations behind the scenes have just been blown up, the club went from a decent model, in looking for talent to improve then in time sell on

 

the club from top to bottom is a shambles imo, 

if VS was still with us, im 100% sure we wouldnt be in the shambles we are behind the screens and on the pitch either

just feels like top doesnt care, Rudkin and Whelan are just idiots who wont face any accountability

 

all due respect to Top, i think its time for him and KP to go, but i doubt he will

[indierich06]

Things need to change, root and stem, at this club. Rotten to the absolute core.

I know, despite my silly comment I am 100% with you.

 

I think that's what angers me the most is how close we were, it wasn't an anomaly, it wasn't luck, we had a model  a philosophy a direction, and somewhere along the line those in charge lost their way, but rather than demand better from themselves they have ran from accountability  they've deflected the blame and looked at us as a fanbase and said "how dare you question us" and unfortunately a large proportion of fans fell for it.

 

I am so proud of what this club achieved under king power, they've given me moments I never thought was possible and I thank them eternally for that, but that does not give you cart blanche to run the club in the way they have the last few years.

 

I have no idea about how the operation works, but I do have a long list of extremely dumb things that as a club we've done for about 4 straight years that no one seems to be accountable for. But there are alot of constants in those decisions and they must shoulder the blame.

It makes me laugh people Praise Vichai, King Power have been shit since day one. Remember Sousa? I'm sorry but glorifying him because he's no longer here is ridiculous, Top is carrying on his legacy. They don't know how to run a business or a football club never have. They got lucky riding on the back of Pearsons planning.

 

We had a good few years that's it now, back to the Championship probably forever. No owner is taking on a nothing club in the East Midlands let's face it.

It would be a shambles under Vichai, it's complete rubbish to think otherwise.

[Joe_1992]

Top is a shite owner. Him and his little ****ing minions can **** off

[Lako42]

I'm afraid to say the new era has arrived at Leicester. 

 

It's all gone now, everything good has been squandered and we are heading for the wilderness. 

 

Champions league to championship. 

 

Swapping places with Forest. 

 

 

A sickening new dawn

Atlanta is a huge American city mate, not provincial by any means !

Top and Jon Rudkin are a pair of absolute ****ing morons who have managed to take a once-promising football club and turn it into a complete shitshow. These two dickheads couldn't manage a ****ing lemonade stand, let alone a Premier League club. But here we are, watching these clueless ****wits steer Leicester City straight into the gutter, all while doing absolutely nothing but patting themselves on the back for the privilege of running the place into the ground.

 

Let’s talk about Steve Cooper, the cheap-as-shit, bottom-of-the-barrel managerial appointment that these two tossers decided was the answer. Cooper is the kind of manager who couldn’t organize a piss-up in a brewery. He’s got all the tactical nous of a potato and the charisma of a wet dishcloth. But why did Top and Rudkin hire him? Because he was ****ing cheap. He didn’t demand a competent squad or even basic managerial resources. It’s like they went into a car dealership, saw a rusted-out heap of junk with no wheels, and said, “That’ll do.” A manager with no ambition, no vision, no nothing. A ****ing yes-man who wouldn’t dare rock the boat or ask for anything that might actually make the team competitive.

 

And what did they give him to work with? A squad so bad, even a Sunday League team would laugh at them. They handed him a group of players who were more interested in collecting a paycheck than playing actual football. It’s like giving a drunk, mentally challenged monkey a bag of bricks and telling it to build a house. What the **** did they think was going to happen? Van Nistelrooy—****ing VAN NISTELROOY—walks into that mess and has to deal with a bunch of overpaid, injury-prone willy pullers who can’t pass a ball five yards without tripping over their own ****ing feet. He was handed a pile of dogshit wrapped in a Leicester shirt and expected to work miracles. Well, newsflash: he couldn’t, because it was a ****ing disaster waiting to happen.

 

And the most insulting part? They couldn’t even bother giving Van Nistelrooy a competent Director of Football. No, these two numpties just threw him into the deep end, hoping he could swim with a ****ing anchor tied to his legs. Rudkin is so useless, he couldn’t spot a decent player if they came up and slapped him in the face. The guy is a walking embodiment of failure, a man whose only skill is looking completely ****ing out of his depth. His transfer dealings are so bad, they make you want to gouge your eyes out. The squad is a collection of washed-up has-beens, injury-prone disasters, and players who look like they’ve never seen a football in their life.

 

Top and Rudkin have absolutely ****ed over Van Nistelrooy. They’ve set him up to fail at every ****ing turn. He didn’t even have a fighting chance. They’ve taken a once-great club and turned it into a laughing stock. The fans who supported Leicester through thick and thin? We’re the ones getting ****ed in the hoop while these two clueless bellends sit on their thrones, doing nothing but watching the whole thing crumble. It’s beyond embarrassing.

 

If Leicester were a person, it’d be the pathetic twat at the bar trying to chat up women with no game and a permanently sweaty forehead. It’s the kind of person who thinks they’re the centre of attention while everyone else is wondering how the hell they managed to get this far in life. And Top and Rudkin are the absolute worst kind of managers—those who have no ****ing clue what they’re doing but somehow keep finding a way to **** everything up even more.

 

They’ve taken Leicester City to the depths of misery. They’ve ruined Van Nistelrooy’s potential, destroyed any hopes of progress, and left the club in a state so ****ing dire, it’s a miracle anyone still bothers to watch them. Top and Rudkin are a cancer to this club, and until they’re gone, Leicester will keep circling the drain. Get these two useless ***** out of our club before they completely ruin it for good. They’re not even bad at their jobs—they’re ****ing terrible.

 

 

Soooo, I’m taking that you’re not overly keen on the Directors at the club…

Serge's reference to Khun Top in the pre match video winds me up so much.

That bellend is a Leeds fan anyway.

[Paul_lcfc_1988]

Vichai clearly learned from his mistakes though. Making mistakes like Sousa is fine, no one in the world can honestly say they've never made a mistake, so long as you learn from them. Aiyawatt hasn't learnt a single lesson, instead he cried stop being mean and allowed Rudkin and Whelan to investigate themselves and clear themselves, like asking Harold Shipman to head up an investigation into suspicious deaths in the elderly population.

[Claridge]

I’d be amazed if there is anyone out there who wants to pay for LCFC what King Power would want and all the debts we probably have

[Happy Fox]

I would rather have the fat Greek as our owner over these charlatans.

[CosbehFox]

Top isn’t going to walk away. He has too much emotion on line. I can pinpoint exactly when his relationship with the fans was doomed to fail. Eindhoven away, when he was treated like royalty. He walked around a city square with no intention of visiting one of the restaurants off it but lapped up applause and handshakes. The control was conceded there and he had the moment which made him see how this relationship should be. 
 

The only way is if the family turn the taps off and want to get some money back because it’s a ****ing awful business deal at the moment. The club is dropping value consistently.

‘a good few years’ 

 

We won the fricking Premier League. Sure, there was a couple of initial missteps but we won the Premier League.

 

I agree everything since the tragedy, overseen by Top, has undone all of the good work to build a successful model

Yep, a lot of people ignore the reality that most of football is down to good recruitment. They brought Pearson back just because he’d been here before and he and Walsh were great at finding good value in the transfer market. We recruited well under Puel but he was a terrible managerial appointment. So was Shakespeare (great coach but no manager and yet we kept him for the following season). The good decisions paid off handsomely but the poor ones are swept under the carpet because we had good player recruitment from good scouting. Not because of the owner’s genius. It was the genius of the scouts and 2 great managers out of about 5 (hardly a perfect success rate!)

 

I hate that King Power have always taken credit for the league win, that starting 11 cost £20m, it was down to Walsh and Pearson that we had that team and down to Ranieri’s tactics that it won the title. Owners don’t pick players and they don’t pick tactics. All they should be doing is signing cheques and delegating to people who know things about football. I’m not interested in moneybags taking credit for sporting achievements, especially when it was notable for how little money it cost.

When and where’s the protest?

[westernpark]

Nigel Pearson and his staff are the reason the King Power ownership did well.

[LCFCCKEANO]

Good owners are ruthless, like the c*** at Forest, Vichai had that for all his sins, would move on from

whoever held us back, Top does not. The cooper hire and sacking shows this, took an easy way out of the error made either by himself or those who trusts with the club to appease the fans, because he doesn’t have that it factor the best businessmen do. Ruthlessness.

If he did, either Rudkin, Whelan or another at the tops head would have been rolling two years ago
