Top’s Programme Notes vs Arsenal

[Mickyblueeyes]

Referring to the ground as Filbert Way not King Power - I don’t know if he has done it before but if not, appeasement on overdrive! 

[Danizen]

"Our opponents are second in the table which gives us some indication of how difficult this will be."

 

Yeah, cos if our opponents were 15th, it would be a piece of piss, wouldn't it?

 

 

 

Absolute waffle.

Basically an acceptance that this badly run club will never be competitive under PSR.

[Cincinnati Fox]

Why lie? He has not wrote one word of that!

Don't understand why you're all being so critical. Such a well written piece, demonstrating his passion for the cause. He comes across as such an articulate, well educated young man.

 

Evidently has the best interests of the club at heart. Can't believe we have fans questioning his motives. People have short memories around here. You do realise it wasn't that long ago we were playing League One football. You should all be so grateful for the last 10 years. If it wasn't for him and his family we'd still be playing the likes of Yeovil Town.

 

Just highlights the hypocrisy amongst our fans on this forum. Bet you'll all happily tuck into your free Doughnut and enjoy your Coconut drinks tomorrow. 

Beat me to it

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Another piece of rubbish from the Comms director.

Playing Devil's Advocate here but there is nothing he could have written that would placate many on here? 

There isn't.

 

But he's said **** all for a long time, and now because fans have finally started turning and getting a voice, he pops up again.

 

Just like when we got relegated.

[BrummieFOX]

Personally pleased with the reminder that it's mostly our responsibility as paying idiots to get us out of this mess, caused by our world class board. 

 

King Power Out

[Vestan Pance]

"January was a challenging month for us in the transfer window, where our ability to strengthen was limited by our PSR position. We were very pleased to sign Woyo Coulibaly and we explored a number of options to make further additions to Ruud’s squad during the month, but the space available in our PSR calculations did not enable us to add the further quality we all felt would improve the team." 

 

In other words:-

 

John has always been hopeless at shifting unwanted players out, so we lied to Ruud as well as Maresca.

Not many positive comments on the official twitter page

 

This protest tomorrow could be big.

It will be interesting to see if Top is there tomorrow or will he go into hiding

Good afternoon, everyone, and welcome back to King Power Stadium for today’s Premier League visit of Arsenal - a fixture that stirs memories of some truly classic matches, both at Filbert Street and here on Filbert Way.

 

Today, it’s a fixture that puts us up against the side currently second in the Premier League table, which gives some indication of the challenge before us. It’s an occasion that will require the best of us to secure the result we’re looking for. Welcome to our guests from Arsenal to Leicester this afternoon.

 

In the four weeks since we last played at home, we’ve had a fine win at Tottenham, a disappointing day at Everton and an FA Cup performance at Manchester United that promised and deserved more. It’s been a mixed period, but our objective for the season remains within reach. There will be some twists and turns yet, but we will be fighting throughout the next 14 games to make sure we stay in the Premier League. Thank you to our fans that have travelled to support the team on the road in recent weeks.

 

January was a challenging month for us in the transfer window, where our ability to strengthen was limited by our PSR position. We were very pleased to sign Woyo Coulibaly and we explored a number of options to make further additions to Ruud’s squad during the month, but the space available in our PSR calculations did not enable us to add the further quality we all felt would improve the team. We remain ambitious, have always been committed to investing in the squad and will continue to be in future. But our ambition must be pursued within the laws of the game.

 

We retain absolute belief in the group of players we have and the qualities of the manager and staff around them for the challenge ahead of us. There’s everything to play for during the coming weeks, and we are all ready to fight for it.

 

We know some of you are frustrated, we respect the views you have shared and we know there are things we need to improve together as one Club. But we also know those improvements are made more easily in the Premier League. To give us the best chance of achieving that, I ask that, during the game, you get behind the team and give them your full support. Winning the games and the points we need to stay up is only possible with your support.

 

Foxes never quit.

 

Aiyawatt Srivaddhanaprabha

I asked AI for a response:

 

Blaming PSR for a disastrous transfer window is a weak excuse for years of strategic incompetence that have left the club scrambling to survive. The reality is Leicester's decline isn’t bad luck—it’s the direct result of mismanagement, short-sighted decisions, and a failure to adapt while others strengthened. Clinging to past achievements while sleepwalking into relegation is not leadership; it’s negligence. Fans deserve honesty, ambition, and a plan—not tired slogans and pleas for support to paper over a mess entirely of the club’s own making.

No way he wrote that, he is far too busy playing Polo with the likes of L’Oréal, Garnier and Head & Shoulders.

Can’t wait for his lap of appreciation with his minions at the last home game of the season when we are languishing on 25 points( optimistic I know).

look forward to letting him know what I think of his programme notes and his dereliction of duty as our head honcho.

He was clearly being sarcastic 😂

[21st Century Fox]

Assume this statement came with the 22/23 internal review as an attachment? 

[sharpylcfc]

100% wouldn't surprise me if Top and the rest of them aren't present tomorrow. 

[Monk]

Lose-lose situation for him I don’t think there’s anything he could have said that would appease the fans.

He'll be there I expect. Sitting there stone-faced with muggins by his side. 

 

Unless we win and then he'll lap up all the adulation by his bum-lickers around him. 

[Ric Flair]

It's actually an insult this narrative they've shifted to about failing to strengthen last month.

 

Fine we didn't have tens of millions, but the profit on Cannon was the equivalent of a £15m signing over 5 years and what both Top and Ruud fail to acknowledge is the loan market.

 

I could list off several players who went on loan which would only have a attracted a modest loan fee and that would have given us a better chance of the survival Top refers to as so essential for out future ambition.
