LeeTheFox Posted 11 January 2023 Share Posted 11 January 2023 It feels to me like Top has forgotten he owns a football club. Can quite easily say any other team in the league would have gotten rid of Rodgers months ago maybe even last season. 🤷♂️ 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TMELcfc Posted 11 January 2023 Share Posted 11 January 2023 I have come to the opinion that Top either needs to bring in some help, financially or advisory... Or sell up (if he can find a suitable buyer). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because it's a tough pill for some to swallow doesn't make it any less true. The decline since Vichai's death is stark. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont see any difference in benefit in KP staying or going now. I challenge anyone to change my mind. It makes no difference to me at this stage whether he is here or not.

LVFox Posted 11 January 2023 Share Posted 11 January 2023 I never want this family to sell up. Through the greatest of triumphs and tragedies they are fully ingrained as part of both the club and the city. I would however love to see some additional investment come in to help them out. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cause I’m not Nor me ...I hope to be wrong, but I think the club is in such a mess both on and off the pitch that signings are unlikely. If we were allowed just one please let it be Vincent Company and get rid of Bull***t Rodgers Edited 11 January 2023 by VG Fox spelling Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post MattFox Posted 11 January 2023 Popular Post Share Posted 11 January 2023 (edited) King Power didn’t put any money into the club between 2014 and 2020 when they lent money for the training ground. The money they invested pre 2014 was spunked by Sven and Pearson got the club up on a shoestring Idea they have bankrolled transfers etc is nonsense, equally the myth Maguire paid for Seagrave is equally bollocks Also worth pointing out they have put money into the club during COVID when their core business was suffering and put nothing in when business was booming. Most of our success has been self generated by the ethos and skill base Pearson installed and cute transfer dealing post 2016 Edited 11 January 2023 by MattFox 8 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To watch all the progress of the last few years just hopelessly fade away is infuriating and heart breaking.

We managed to cobble enough pennies together for a Fofana replacement in the summer but we are 2 weeks into this window desperately in need of some additional quality and nothing. And before anyone says ‘its only two weeks’ we’ve supposed to have had a new Head of Recruitment working for the past 3 months to hit the ground running this window and still nothing. For whatever reason there is no money there, we cant afford players and we cant afford to pay off the manager and get a new one in. Does it not beg the question though, if we are skint, as to why a fairly reputable head of recruitment joins us if we are skint? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When we won the Premier League he said "i never thought i'd see Leicester win any league never mind this one". We've won 3 in the past decade.

ARM1968 Posted 11 January 2023 Share Posted 11 January 2023 Top is presiding over a King Power empire that has more than halved in value in 2 years. Our woes are not his main priority. If I were him I’d sell to someone like PSG’s owners or similar ASAP. No idea if anyone would be interested, but I think he is the captain of a sinking ship.

Lcfc82 Posted 11 January 2023 Share Posted 11 January 2023 They either need to back him or sack him. If they can’t afford to do either of those then it’s time for them to get other investors or sell up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure we are glamorous enough for the Saudi's etc & personally that would probably end my 60 year support. I feel fairly confident that once Top get his main business back in line we will see investment in our club again. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This was fairly common knowledge I thought to anybody who had any real knowledge on it (not a dig at you) and that includes Rodgers. He knew what he was getting into. We aren't a club that has spent massively. Rodgers is just extremely inefficient. We need to be efficient to function properly. Rodgers will never get you value for your money.
