Percy will probably reveal all tomorrow, but I’m hearing we had got someone but they changed their mind last minute. 21 hours ago, DAS Boot said: I heard the opposite. They had someone all but agreed but we pulled the plug last minute. Of course, Pliskin AND DAS Boot could both be right! A prospective Manager turned us down ..... and we pulled out of a deal for another Manager. I wouldn't be surprised if Skibala turned us down (for the reasons I've given earlier) and KP pulled out a prospective deal for Martin, because they couldn't face the expected (and completely understandable) backlash from fans!

Foxin_Mad Posted 16 February Posted 16 February How can they be so ****ing incompetent. We might as well sack the communications twat and save some money, he doesn't communicate To be honest id respect them more if the cam out and said we are ****ed, we cant afford a new manager right now but we are working on a new sustainable structure for the club or something. But it seems they are just ignoring it, Top still thinks we promote premier league. Soon we will confirm our participation in League 1 for the 26/27 season. Yet everything carries on as before, Rudkin in charge doing the things the Rudkin way. The only positive is hopefully one day the insufferable fraudulent crook will be locked up. 1

There is a big difference between thinking that protesting and booing own players is self defeating and adding to the toxicity And thinking the club is being ran well! There are tonnes of them. Go onto almost any LCFC-related group on Facebook such as Leicester City Undivided. As soon as you question the running of this club, you'll be greeted with comments like "yeah but what about all the work they do for charity?" "Yeah but we won the league". "Yeah but look at how they've improved the local economy." And some of that's true...but we're talking about several years of consistent decline, which this group of fans cannot and will not accept because Top occasionally turns up, when he's not on the back of a horse and dishes out some shit dry doughnuts. And then you'll get the usual tripe saying 'stop moaning about results and back the team', which is hilarious for two reasons: (1) we're not moaning about the players, although they are shit, we're angry about how badly the club has been managed, and (2) they say it as if the players go onto these groups and will read these comments, which aren't about them, and will somehow be offended. When we organised the van last year, I had loads of fans coming up outside the pub saying 'i don't agree with this, Rudkin is not to blame for players who can't score or defend'. It's literally his job to sign the right players...but I'm being told it's not his fault. It's unreal. It's delusional. There's a clear distinction between 'backing the team' and being ****ed off with how the club is being mismanaged and protesting about those who are running us into the ground. Surprised you've not come across this group of fans yet... 1

Foxin_Mad Posted 16 February Posted 16 February (edited) Right now, just get Rowett in till the end of the season. Big bonus if he keeps us up. We need to try something. Im not Rowetts biggest fan but we need a manager in by this weekend, ideally with a few days training. If Rudkin can not deliver that he should quit as he is clearly utterly incompetent beyond belief. Edited 16 February by Foxin_Mad 1

Popular Post foxpodder Posted 16 February Popular Post Posted 16 February I've been going since the 60s and have had a season ticket since the late 1980s. The club has had lots of ups and downs including administration when we shamefully failed to pay local contractors. The club is now in an existential crisis, we could face liquidation in League One and administration in the Championship after next season. What Vichai brought to the club was a sense of purpose, he led but he also served. Unfortunately Top does not have all of his father's qualities, his father would have sacked many of the football people years ago. IF Top were to recognise that he has to rid himself of his current DofF and recruit a team of specialist football admin people to run the club with him as a 'figurehead' and 'link to his father' I'd be content. If he won't he should sell it. Taking Andy King as an example, how many other people at the club have been but in positions of responsibility that they are struggling to cope with - essentially hung out to dry. The club needs - a manager NOW, TODAY - and competent football professionals above him to turn it around. We have wasted three league games in which a competent Championship manager might have salvaged at least 3 points (against Southampton). As for clapping the team during a game , yes I do that as I don't want to make it toxic for them while they are playing ... but I don't clap them off after the performances we have been turning in. We need CHANGE urgently and fans should be together as we all want the best for our club. Oh ... will I renew my season ticket, yes even in League One - because that is where we are undoubtedly heading. I have faith but not blind faith. 6

Yes and notwithstanding he would want a contract on improved terms and the ability to bring in some additional coaching staff.

Tielemans63 Posted 16 February Posted 16 February I don't believe there's any desire or plan to bring in a manager - we can't afford it for a start. I think the plan is to use Kingy as a human shield for as long as possible, until he walks away. I hope for his own sake, that Kingy is thinking about that already as he is 100% being used as a sacrificial lamb by a truly immoral owner. Top and Jon know this is a massive gamble. They're aware of their truly horrific track record when taking a gamble. They've see the disastrous consequences of their previous gambles....and yet they seem to have to decided to gamble with the club's very existence. Top might be the owner, but no-one has the right to do that. No-one. 4
LeePhilpottsBaldSpot Posted 16 February Posted 16 February 5 minutes ago, Rubbersoul said: No one is going to be in for Stoke are they? I genuinely think the board have already decided it's King until the end of the season. I wanted Cifuentes out but it makes literally no sense to remove 80% of a failing regime and expect the 20% that's left to improve things. Wouldn't be surprised if King walks away himself. Then we'll just put inanimate carbon rod in charge til the end of the season. 1
