Hi All, Elm here.

 

first off I want to say I should have been harsher with him, I wanted nothing more than to show him how I really felt. 
 

but realistically he wouldn’t have come over to talk if I had called him a **** and lashed out.

 

I just spoke from my heart and hoped it sinks in. 
 

I should have let other people ask questions too. 
 

if I ever get the chance going forward, I’ll call him a **** 

You had the opportunity that many didn’t to really ask some decent questions - but instead you seemed a bit star struck and watered down anything meaningful - just managing to tell everyone that you are on the board of the foxestrust.
 

There was an opportunity to put the boot in on Anthony and you didn’t either. I don’t hear much about John Rudkin - no one is asking you to call him a cvnt, or “hurt him” as you put it and realise you aren’t a trained journalist - he got let off lightly there

Actions speak louder than words. 
 

He sacks Rudkin in the next couple of days. He probably wins around a decent chunk of the fanbase. 
 

It’s all words. Never any actual plan laid out.

She asked me if I was part of any fan group, so mentioning the foxes trust made logical sense. 
especially as we’re meeting the club as a board on Monday

We won the Premier League therefore we have to experience relegation to League 1. How about we win the Premier League and not get relegated to League 1 for the second time in our entire history.

Im on the board of the foxes trust

Sorry for swearing

 

A worthwhile chat

I think you did okay in the circumstances considering a lot of the emotion at the time. 

 

Like you say, you probably had to be a bit careful otherwise he wouldn't have answered anything. 

 

I couldn't hear many of his answers and I doubt they were deep and meaningful. 

 

If you did ask about any staff in particular I doubt you would have heard what you and many others wanted to hear.

He mumbled a lot, which was frustrating

Respectfully what you’ve done there is more harm than good. No real questions asked. Top still Mr superior. Even though people were dropping in things to talk about you ignored them or perhaps you were star struck.

 

its like Tommy g says, you were star struck and not a board member of the foxes trust

 

No one needs to swear to get anger acros but if you sit on a board you’ve got to do better than that. 
 

He walked away from that telling you - no blame. We “try” harder. Same as last week
 

Good luck on Monday but if the trust board is equally as weak - we continue on the current trajectory. 
 

If you’re now part of these supporter groups, you’ve got to be tougher or step aside.

Actions speak louder than words Top. 
 

The decisive action you’ve taken since last year is …

 

To promote a failing CFO to be CEO which is mind boggling

 

To promote Jon Rudkin to an even more senior position despite years of managed decline 

 

To employ a MD of your business with no football experience whatsoever


To make your only significant football hire a guy wedded to a now failing style of football who was average at best on the Belgian 2nd division 

 

To facilitate your football operation make hideous loan signings as recently as 3 months ago with the issues within the club hugely apparent  to everyone

 

To leave the club a 4 game period without a manager and with someone in charge who clearly didn’t want to be in that position, only to appoint the individual who was obviously available immediately.

 

If that is the standard for your decisive actions then how is anyone supposed to have any confidence in you and your staff that you can make any positive impact into the state of the club now?

Agree with all of this except the "managed decline". That suggests it's gradual and planned - we have unmanaged descent!

Hopefully the meeting goes well but unfortunately from this clip I’m concerned the FT lacks anyone that has any credentials when the chips are down - to ask difficult questions in a way that firstly puts anyone in power on the spot!

 

This was such an easy ride for Top despite the worst ever season in the clubs entire history.

Words won't make a difference, action will. If the guy had anything about him Rudkin would be gone this morning.
