We've won every major domestic trophy in my lifetime.

 

Any other similar size club would celebrate any of those with a statue.

 

Our only statue is of the old head of KIng Power.

 

Fvxking embarrassing.

At this rate we can add League two in 2028 and have won all 4 leagues and fa cup in a 20 year period!

[ashbyj]

Will all the KPFC faithful be standing and applauding us lifting the EFL trophy on that stupid pre match video soon?

Why is the Director's Box first row always empty when the Chairman is not in attendance.

 

Now I can understand why Vichai's seat is always left empty and indeed Aiyawatt's seat is left empty when he is playing polo. But why is the whole front row of the Director's Box then left empty in Aiyawatt's absence. It just stinks to me, looks horrendous on the TV. Are the other Director's not capable or worthy of sitting a row in front?

 

Does Aiyawatt demand this as a show of respect? The optics just look awful to me, I know we have bigger problems but the culture of the club is just all wrong from top down.

 

Surely no other club does this?

100% agree. It should be full with the sort generating business / sponsorship revenue.

how anyone can defend anything about this club is blind and lacking cells

 

the standards at the club are so far in the gutter

the club is a mess and some fans are accepting it, 

the club is literally dying a death and some fans are ok with it

 

wake up and support for real change

[Jacob7839]

I would love new owners but the sad thing is no one will buy the club in the current state we covered in debt and no one will make money of us. Either way King power Out

Good ,that is what we need.

Starting from scratch  with no debt we are:- a good project.

Great history

One club city

Great fan base.

[Eskay]

The craziest thing about this season is.....we have broken the rules to assemble this shit shower of a squad !!! A 6 point slap for Awey and Mavididi. Let that sink in. 

 

Utter shit.

 

 

[CosbehFox]

Btw if this Iran war continues KP finances are well and truly going to be hit 

[SemperEadem]

The vacant faces down there are just sad.

[Claudio Fannieri]

There really is no reason or evidence to suggest this mob will ever learn, they had a chance to press the reset button after the first relegation and when Enzo left. 
 

we could and should have hired Corberon, we could and and should have signed Jordan James and Hayden Hackney in that summer for less than we forked out for Skipp, we could have signed Zian Flemming for what we spaffed on Ayew, we could have signed Callum O’Hare instead of Bobby Reid and for what we flushed down the bog on Eduaords loan we could have signed Tom Fellows and I guarantee had we done all of that we would be in a far better position than we are we now both on and off the pitch and have a lot of saleable assets on sensible wages. 
 

Also to then replicate the same mistake this summer by not appointing Rohl when we had the chance for another cheap and cheerful option just to pay out another load of compo halfway through the season. 
 

We have shelled out an absolute fortune to 3 failed managers in the last 18 months or so all because we don’t like to pay release clauses for good managers, much rather pay out compo though to absolute dog muck. It doesn’t make sense and is why this lot have to go, they don’t have a fecking clue how to run a football club.

Correct!And we have sold kdh and Barnes to pay their inflated wages.

Let that sink in! Worse than shit!

[coolhandfox]

How can anyone support King Power, they run 3 teams LCFC men's, women and Oud-Heverlee Leuven all 3 are battling relegation.

 

Financial mismanagement has seem us sell of the family silver, Barnes and KDH to keep the lights on.

 

Consistent spent poorly and let high value assets leave on a free.

 

The have no morals consistent letting the club be sponsored by betting companies not registered in the UK.

 

Don't communicate with the fan base.

Got round to watching Henry Winter’s interview with the BSLB podcast last night, he made some excellent valid points regarding Top. 
 

How do you walk away from a football club that has a shrine to your father. It’s only normal for Top to try and continue his fathers legacy. If he walked away and sold up, what does that show? As morbid as it sounds, it shows that he’s failed as a son. Put yourself in Top’s shoes, I personally would find it extremely difficult to walk away from a football club, where you’ve built success and where your father tragically died. 
 

The problem right now though is Top doesn’t help himself. Throughout his tenure, we’ve seen so many times that he lacks the balls to make the right decisions at the right time. A couple of weeks ago was the perfect opportunity to make significant change, but as Henry Winter said in the interview, we’ve just moved pieces around a chessboard. As long as Rudkin stays, the hate on him and Top will just intensify. Rudkin has been part of the Leicester City furniture since 1996, is it in Top’s culture to remain loyal to a guy who’s been here 30 years, or if he actually got rid of Rudkin, maybe he doesn’t trust himself to find a new right-hand man. But for a guy who’s been here 30 years, if he actually cared about the club, he’d do the right thing and step down, but if he did quit, he probably knows he won’t get a better job elsewhere. 
 

Whether some fans like it or not, there’s always going to be a section of fans that will remain loyal to the King Power regime, just because of the success we mainly had under Vichai’s leadership, and through sympathy for Top because of the tragedy that unfolded. A word Henry Winter used in his interview though was apathy, and unfortunately a good section of the fanbase are feeling exactly that, I’d include myself in that. This is the most unmotivated I have felt in my lifetime as a Leicester fan. I gave up my season ticket after the return from Covid, and looking back, it’s one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. I don’t want to pay £400 or £30-40 on a single match to watch the likes of Jordan Ayew stroll around the pitch. 
 

It’s ok for some fans to come on to a Leicester City forum or fan channel and say “Back the lads”, but what is there to back? The period between 05-08 was shitty, but at least the squad that got relegated in 07/08 didn’t ship goals for fun, at least Iain Hume tried and managed doubles figures worth of goals. Jason Bourne made a great point in a tweet yesterday, “A squad that no fans connect to”. We have gone from having the most relatable squad in the clubs history 10 years ago, to having the most unlikeable squad in the clubs history 10 years later, as numerous posters have stated on this forum, it’s an unprecedented downfall. 
 

We need more than a few pieces moved around a chessboard, we need more than just a bunch of naive interviews from Top. 
 

It’s about time we heard from Rudkin, take some accountability, and actually tell us what the vision is for this football club moving forward, because right now we have absolutely fvck all to cling on to, and we have no vision. 
 

If this club isn’t careful, it will end up in League 1 and become another Bolton.

Great well thought out and balanced post.

The more they put off making the big calls, the more and more fans they will lose.

🎶 poor credit history, Top made us sing that 🎵

Birmingham thought the same with debt and a stadium needing £10 million spending on it

One thing that really stood out for me - and Winter was being very careful with his words - is Aiyawatt's (and I'm paraphrasing here) lack of "intellectual rigour" in comparison to Vichai. 

 

We all know what he meant by this.
