King Power Out

[Raj]

Had their time and the halcyon days are well over.

Time for them to go and take Rudkin out with them.

The club is rotten in its core now

[Mickyblueeyes]

I’ll tell you else pisses me off. The other twat, Apichet. So ****ing useless that despite being the elder brother, Vichai had him reporting into the imbecile Top. Now he’s sat there as vice ****ing chair. 
 

The dickhead who hi-fives them after a goal. Another dickhead,

[Electric Yetis]

Sat in the West Stand behind the dugout today. Top and Rudkin walked in 5 minutes before kick off chucking free scarves to their subjects.

 

People rushing up to them asking for photos 🤢

Regarding assets that aren't sellable.

 

None of our players progress or get better. They go backwards. Prospects like Braybrooke and Alves nowhere near the squad for seasons. 
 

The players go backwards at Seagrave. The club have no effective coaches that develop players. Hence the PSR problems. 

This is a major problem. Just look at Luke Thomas and James Justin for two other examples. Luke Thomas started in the FA Cup final win and Justin has gone from being called up to the England squad to playing like a total imposter in the premier league. Both should have been worth a lot of money, especially being home grown players now we couldn't give them away with their wages. With all the money spent on Seagrave our players should be getting better not worse.

It’s wild really. A few months ago after being shafted by the club nobody wanted to front any sort of protest against the running of the club. 
 

We had a game live on Sky which was the perfect opportunity for something.
 

Months on things are inevitably a lot worse on and off the pitch yet we’re days away from people wrapping themselves up in polyester LCFC gear and funding KP some more. 

 

Funny old species aren’t we.

 

Up the city 🦊

The club really does need gutting. Need to remove any trace of the king power era and just start again.

Could you possibly elaborate on this at all?

Ever wondered why Whelan and Rudkin are untouchable? 

 

I have. 

Top has left the pair of them to make all the football calls. Not just them, bear in mind we have a Strategy Director and a General Counsel. If he gets rid of either of them or both, how does he judge who to appoint because he knows so little about it he couldn't possibly make a good call. It'd be like Mandaric appointing Lee Hoos and driving Pearson out. He'd literally be playing pin the tail on the donkey for a new DoF.

Ticket price increases, £25 card charge, etc etc

After the chaotic summer of ticketing and PR disasters there was discussion between groups about protesting against the running of the club. It was decided not to do anything similar to other clubs chucking stuff on the pitch etc etc not buying merchandise etc. Think the only thing agreed on was to stop buying the catering.

 

A long way from those PLEAT OUT SHIPMAN OUT days.

[cityfanlee23]

I was trying to think of the comparisons I could make for our football club to other businesses that we've seen over the last few decades that sum up the last few years of King Power. 

In footballing terms we are Manchester United post SAF, Massive success to massive decline, club full of big earners who don't care, standards that were left by Pearson absolutely eroded. 
In car terms we are the Rover of football clubs.
In Game company terms we are the Ubisoft of football at the moment, poor financial decisions, poor board decisions and a complete lack of direction leading to us freefalling into nowhere and having to desperately make our poor decisions of the past work.

It shouldn't be controversial to say it. It's plain obvious.

 

Name a single facet of this club that is run in a good way in December 2024.

 

It's absolutely utterly shit. From top to bottom. It's draining.

 

Time's up Top. You've ****ed it up. If you really care - then sell before any more damage is done.

The section about Top in Serge’s pre match poem thing really annoys me

 

Just no need for it

All part of the propaganda. The whole thing is quite reminiscent of an eastern dictatorship to be honest.

[Lad1966]

This is on the manager and the players. Major of us, including me were happy with RVN, especially after the 1st 2 games, but we have gone backwards. For the record, I’ve not liked any off RVN team selections.I am worried by the transfer window, if he’s in charge. RVN prove me wrong☹️

To be fair, they are really good at writing "Happy (insert religious/cultural celebration here) to all celebrating today" on social media.

Hasn't Top got a monopoly with King Power Duty-free in Thailand...so the family don't have to worry about competition. Then they don't need to hire leading businesses brains as they don't need them 

Probably why they are so lacklustre with appointments at Leicester 

[Philkeavo]

Thank you Micky for starting this thread. Long overdue. Responsibility and accountability start with the owner and he has never once displayed an ounce of either.  His self-serving and pitiful reaction to the justified criticisms after relegation illustrates the thin skinned character he is.

The club has become increasingly disconnected from local and vocal fans. The roped off section and bus for his friends and hangers on from Thailand at the end of last season said it all. Time to sell.Go now.

We’ve got manager threads. We have player threads. We have director threads. Why the **** do we not have a thread to hound out the biggest issue at this club. I’m not one for starting threads but listening to Wolves support their club and criticise their ownership today I can’t work out why it’s never us. We have the worst owner in football terms.
 

If Vichai was the best thing to happen to this club. Top is the worst. A horrendous owner where the only good thing he has done in his life is win the sperm race. 
 

His ownership has led to the one of the biggest downfalls in PL history. He was left with a club on the up. A side that won the PL and Vichai’s lasting legacy was overseeing a team built to win the FA Cup and compete at the highest level. 
 

He shook his head at fans when we told him to get rid of Rodgers. He persists with Rudkin despite fans, managers etc. telling to get rid. He’s overseen many talented individuals leave the club and not be replaced. 
 

The club will slide down and have a multi-million pound health spa around its neck. 
 

I won’t be going to another game while he is owner, I’ve had enough of the incompetence. Forget Rudkin, RVN, the players. The issues start at the very top Get this guy out of the club!

 

I know there will be people who will criticise, dismiss etc. this suggestion - don’t worry, you’ll get there. Leicester City suffer until Top goes.

💯  agree with you but I also think it's too late. We're now in a position where we are truly ****ed. The squad is absolutely shit. If we somehow  manage to stay up the football gods have truly looked after us. The depth of this squad is worse than last seasons yet we're trying to survive a league higher. Anyone with any ability is sold  or is allowed yo just run a contract down while mediocre players have been rewarded with massive wages on long term deals. Meanwhile fans sleepwalk and accept  it because they get a couple of tins of shit beer ,a slice of cake or some shit Thai thing on a stick. The horse has already bolted and we're not coming back from this for years.

Trouble is, this mob want all the accolades and praise when it's going well, parading half of Bangkok around the pitch holding up elephants when we win something. But want zero accountability and go full silent treatment when it starts to fall apart, it's cringe worthy.

And not just win something - win a trophy we were only in contention for due to their own previous ****up. We should've made as little a song and dance about last season as possible. No pride in it at all. Like a bus driver celebrating having his bus pulled out of a ditch. Shows how superficial it is - the shamelessness.

Very true ... the January transfer window will reap nothing as no one will move on as they are far to comfortable and basically have no value at all... and financially we can't afford big wage players to bring in ... it will be another 3 years before the current contracts end and then another 3 to build a decent squad .... the club Rudkin Top and whelan fail to invest in good young players when we had money to spare ... 

[Ted Maul]

He obviously cares. And that's more than can be said for some of the parasites running great clubs into the ground in this country.

 

But he's put too much faith into a glorified PE teacher- he's a businessman and in business terms, it's a horrible decision. I'm not 'King Power out' just yet- still have hope that the penny will drop- but we've certainly pissed away our status as a top level club. Whether he's got the minerals to claim it back remains to be seen.

 

Last chance saloon in my eyes.

I think some people can't separate what Vichai did for the club from what Top has done to the club. 

Exactly......Keeping Rodgers way to long....Appointing Cooper and Keeping the DOF doing this.............Vichai would have never let it get all the way down the road where we are.
