Saw this while out walking the dog, looks like his move has happened quicker than first thought 

They spend over the going rate for their components but they don’t fit together well, they leak, breakdown and block, incorrectly chosen parts but can’t be removed for 5 years due to the contractual obligations.

If you want something to hang onto

 

If it's someone decent they're likely to already have a job and we would have to agree terms and notice period.

Who was the bloke in the exec seats a few rows in front of rudkin? Went absolutely nuts when James scored.

A few rows in front? That’s just normal seats behind the dugout, probably his dad or something.

Shocking and sad to see so many empty seats in home sections of the King Power. Shows level of frustration and anger with the mess Leicester are in on and off the pitch. Cifuentes will get the grief and possibly the sack for another loss but problems run far deeper. Leicester need stronger leadership from dressing-room to boardroom. 

More spirited second half cannot hide the shambles and surrender of the first and the troubles within the Club. Threat of possible points deductions, issues around Top, Rudkin and too many players overpaid and underperforming. Wout Faes has played 28 times for Belgium in last three years so he must be decent but he rarely exudes much authority or security with Leicester. 

It’s about concentration and attitude as well as ability. It’s about taking responsibility and remembering Leicester’s identity and that Foxes never quit. 

Recruitment a huge issue. Lost some leaders, didn’t replace them with strong characters, fighters needed in times like this. Why did they start playing only when 3-0 down to Sheffield United? Pulled two goals back, bit more enterprise, Mavididi having a go, Soumare a good sub, James’ outstanding strike, Monga brings trickery and hope. But too late. Damaging defeat at home to a team who started the day 22nd in the Championship (and Chris Wilder, a leader, has got Sheffield United going). 

Leicester have to wake up. They’re heading towards celebrations of the 10th anniversary of the great Premier League title triumph. Leicester have also to beware they’re not heading to League One. They have to fight back and win back the fans. #LCFC 🦊 #LEISHU

He’d be seriously desperate to go near us.

I’d love to believe this but someone’s just seen any bald bloke and said it’s him 

[LcFc_Smiv]

Can't see Carsley operating in that role, he's a coach, while he has the leadership credentials he wouldn't be the right fit for that role.

Rudkin trying to hang on to his job for as long as he can 

[Jattdogg]

The fact rukcant had not been sacked speaks volumes to how ****in clueless Top is.

Would be surprised of he was the Technical Director appointment with very little in the way of experience for that role.

 

More likely to be watching the likes of Monga and Page.

Yeah, that was Top. Top saw a bald bloke and was like “oh Hi Lee, always been an admirer. How would you like the top job of rebuilding our culture and a few million a year?”.

Tom Collomosse name checks Ben Wrigglesworth as one to keep an eye on for the Technical Director role, just as I did about 10 pages ago 

 

Also mentions they probably won’t be in position until after Jan window.

Rudkin and Top will be making the calls on managers regardless of a Technical Director coming in.

Brilliant, someone Rudkin knows inside and out and knows will do as he’s told. 
 

not what we need at all

Another yes man

So a young scout who previously worked under Jon Rudkin before doing a shit job at Arsenal and Wolves is the man who is apparently going to save the club. Of course the KPFC cult will lap it all up.
