Lesta Legend

First bit sounds a lot like Marti. But if he is a builder and his style sounds like he doesn’t insist on the possession for the sake of it shite then he sounds more tempting than RM. Is he a ‘nice’ guy? We need a little discipline to lift standards.

This is why KP need to go, it should be obvious to anyone what the issues are, but Top is a dimwit and the best outcome now is we are sold as the alternative is administration.

Its the same repeated pattern, why anyone would expect the right appointment to be made at the end of this 'search' for a new manager is beyond me. And yes 43 days after relegation @alanf0x, like @Ric Flair has said, we do appear to jump to the tune of our revered leader, who jets off and prances around playing Polo and it is as if the club can't make a decision until he is back. He really shouldn't be anywhere near making decisions, he needs to appoint a better set of experts (like his dad) and then prance around all he wants, that way we will make better pragmatic footballing choices and a lot quicker too. But here we are looking like we will be once again ill prepared and rushing around at the backend of pre Season. We never rush, we're just unorganised and run by amateur's, the slow scatter gun approach is just how we roll and is why we now find ourselves in League One.

This is a huge problem by the sounds of it. Rudkin is in bed with the agents. The effect is to an extent, we’re relying on them for recruitment and deciding the future of our talented youngsters, away from our club. The powers that be clearly won’t join the dots up. Farce.

Comments turned off on twitter. Wise move.

Same with any league we’re in. Many clubs are moving away from it. But like you’ve said, it will be even harder in a more much physical league. Don’t expect our strategy to change unless Rudkin or Top are gone.

Exactly I’ve no idea why people seem to even think for one second they’re carefully considering their options. Considering where we were once that points deduction hit you’d have been planning at the bare minimum at that point for life in league one. You would fully expect we’d have been pushing for our manager at this point if not already appointed. But there is nothing and not any noise whatsoever, we know what’s happening, like it does every year. A. They have to go on holiday B. Russell Martin is hesitant to sign on and they’re having to wait. No other options being considered. C. Rudkin is stumped by the lack of technical ball playing options presented by his agents that are willing to manage in league one. Whatever scenario it is, I’ve gone past given them the benefit of doubt. If they get lucky on appointing a manager like Pearson that manages to organise this mess for them, they need to do it quicker, at least. Giving the manager more time is as important as appointment of the candidate themselves.

We deserve everything that’s coming to us.

Either way we stuck with them, which looking at where we are, is much worse. Unless the nepo dwarf actually puts money in the finances don’t add up let alone promote next year. Forget sportswashing, we’re staring down the barrel of administration.

Derby in advance talks with Saudi Prince. We’re left with Tweedle Dee and Dumb

Manderic’s parting gift was to appoint Pearson and his team. A capable team and the rest is history. King Power nearly messed up by letting him go that first time. I honestly fear for the future. It is so important for getting the manager right and this will only get there by also structural reform of the internals at the club and get this in place very quickly. Pearson went in with Walsh and clearly was able to target players who’ll they’ll have been aware of probably before they joined the club. He then changed the culture and set high standards. My worry is we’ll keep with the disjointed organisational structure headed by Rudkin with recruitment still relying on agents. Any manager expected to hit the ground running should by rights be in there now and fighting tooth and nail to ensure we get the right profile of player and not the dross presented by an agency. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to even call on the likes of Pearson to provide a consultancy on a transition period to work with everyone. But that’s pie in the sky. I honestly believe they’re still on holiday and while maybe McCarron may be doing something (we as usual can only guess what) decisions will be made once off their jollies. And if we aren’t going to get our arse in order and pragmatically make sound decisions like Pearson did on a limited budget. KP will have to spend millions, with the new parameters set I can’t see we will do either. Charlie Methven I fear is right.

Tells you everything you need to know about the politics at the club. Rudkin is the turd that won’t flush.

It’s rinse and repeat each year. I thought they were riding out the PSR issues a few years back, just out of hope that it would be better but it’s infuriating to watch them continually balls everything up. I imagine like always, a decision will be made once one returns from his holiday. It beggars belief this is likely true.

No. Avoided it by managing our finances better.
