If they were running it with their heart, then surely they would realise things need to change, and fast.

The board can't do that without shareholder approval.
If the board all resigned, who would replace them?

I think the current board all think that if are running a tight ship and not loosing money they will be seen as having done an excellent job - maybe.
But if they are the cause of Leicester City playing 3rd tier football for the first time in 123 years then they deserve to be shot for not taking a risk in a little investment. No-one is asking for us to sign Gerrard but some clubs have made good additions for small fees.
Stoke have signed Dominic Matteo for example not world class but would do a job in the situation were in etc etc

It's in my other posts. All s/holders and b/members should hand over their shares and get out

All the board need to do is replace Rob Kelly with anybody with half a brain. The fact they can't do this is enough of a reason for them all to walk.
We have some half decent players playing like cnuts. We don't need much money, we need structure

With all due respect, gonads.
If we had a rich fan who wanted to invest in that way I would not say no. :icon_wink
Who are they going to hand their shares over to?
Wouldn't it be a good idea to make sure the person they hand them over to has plans and finance in place to take the club forward before letting someone else take control?

then your not a true football fan. buying success is not clever. if a billionaire like abramorich took over at lcfc i would go elsewhere.
some people go thru life just wanting to win all the time. it dont work that way in the real world.you need to be able to take the lows if you cant i suggest you support chelsea.:icon_cool

Don't know, maybe MM if he's still interested
As I have previously just said, I would also like to see their plans, as well as them seeing MM's plans.Jeff said:
Here's an idea, they submit their plans to the fans, MM submits his plans to the fans and we all vote.
What the **** is so special about this board and s/holders that they feel MM's plans are so inferior to their own that they need hard evidence.

Abramovich was only an example I used in my post Biffbean, a Jack Walker would be more realistic for Leicester.

Who was the experienced coach that Kelly had last season but we could not keep him because he did not want to stay here or something like that

Before you all say it I know he's dead.

Ray Graydon, we should get him back tomorrow
The current setup will not allow any one person to have control. That means the club is unlikely to take major risks.
It seems that MM's plans are based on risks, going into more debt, in the hope that you can pay off the debts by being successful.
Under the current board we're unlikely to be in the position where we have the kind of debts we had a few years ago. Under MM that could happen. That's why I would want guarantees in place from MM about what happens if we're not successful.
It's all very well looking for short term success, but by doing that you could be seriously risking the long term future of the club.
Which is best I guess depends on your own personal opinion - although it's easy to suggest the risk taking route when it's other people's money you're risking.
Having had debt problems of my own in the past I'm much more cautious about taking risks with money than I used to be, which is why I'm more on the side of being cautious.
