Out of Rudkin, Susan and Top, id probably hold her least accountable of the three of them. Its a start, but we would all be much happier if it was the other two.

If the article accurately apportioned the success to the people who were involved in it - it'd make everybody still at the club look terrible, it's basic self-preservation 

You don't think she wrote that herself do you?!

Whelan in 2020 "you sure want to spend that much John? Its not really in line with our affordability projections and we have not seen a great return on the expenditure"

Rudkin "Shut up Sue, it'll be fine"

 

Whelan in 2021 "you're absolutely sure you want to spend that much money John? That's definitely not in line with our affordability projections and we have not seen a good return on the expenditure"

Rudkin "Shut up Sue, it'll be fine"

 

Whelan in 2022 "you can't spend that money John. You are definitely over the line of our affordability projections and we are now losing money from the return on expenditure"

Rudkin "Shut up Sue, it'll be fine"

 

Whelan in 2023 "we are now relegated John. We are way over the line of our affordability projections and we have to change the the complete structure of the footballing side of the business. Lose the high earners and re-evaluate the whole footballing side of the club"

Rudkin "Shut up Sue, it'll be fine"

Whelan in 2024 "we are still way over the line of our affordability projections but we have a chance to change this. Lose the high earners and balance the numbers. Do not waste the precious money we have"

Rudkin "Shut up Sue, it'll be fine"

 

Whelan in 2025 "we are in a mess. the numbers do not balance at all and we have huge outgoings and not enough player asset values to cover it. I've warned you about this for years"

Rudkin "Shut her up Top, it'll be fine"

Mainly transfers out of the club. Rarely did she get involved with incomings except for payment structures. It was never her say on who we should sign and how much for. More about how the deals were structure. Hence the "are you sure John" every single year.

Let's be frank, she wasn't going to last much longer. She's past 60. At some point, you've got to realize you're too old for the task, that you just can't keep up any more.

I think she did a decent job over the years. The BC Game and KBet fiasco is fully on her, though.

What a fall from grace, after all the external praise a few years back.

 

Wish her well in her retirement, she made good money and can afford to go places.

 

If we're really honest, Rudkin has got to go next. 

Aiyawatt then to sell the club to a new ownership.

 

Fresh start altogether at the club.

 

And maybe, just maybe, the Herlihy situation sorts itself out, too.

It's very obvious the most important thing to Top is to have people around him he knows. It doesn't particularly matter if they're good enough at what they do. If he likes you and you are loyal to him, you have a job for life. 

Seems not!

I thought someone in here said he got voted out by the board at King Power?

I'd imagine his new role makes him feel like Mummy's special soldier without any real say .

Been terrible for years, I don't think her knowledge of football was particular great. Of course her role was more finance side of things... but when connected to football youve got to have some knowledge of the football system.

Because people would rather whinge on here than vote with their feet ''well I go with my dad so it's a good social'' or ''I like the people I sit near''

 

 

No, it's because they are proper fans who support the Club in tough times, (however they have been caused), rather than abuse it and the players with crude playground insults.

Out of the three at the helm, her rudders and top.. Susan should've been the last to go. But as long as rudkin follows im fine with it.

 

Im actually hoping their clearing out the leadership ready for a new owner to come in and set out their own team

I'd bet good money that if Aiyawatt still owns us in five years we'll be in our weakest ever position as a club.

I think that the training ground/academy will be the only thing stopping this from being a reality but it wouldn't surprise me if we get to a point where the training ground has to be sold to keep the club afloat at some stage with the way things are going.

I think what will happen is he'll flog off the area around the stadium that he'd acquired for this expansion for some quick cash and then sell the club as it is. 

 

According to a trusted friend who has a relative working at the club, been preparing to sell the club for a while, had auditors and external account teams in. This isn't gospel though.. but it does make sense. 

 

Balancing the books with PSR, strip the leadership down, find out what our punishment is and then sell I hope. Be an absolute miracle if we could coincide it all with a promotion too.
