"Sad when a club has to sell its soul in search of success."

A comment i have just read from a neutral Leicester fan.

And that's coming from a club who splashed the cash last year and it got them NOWHERE.

Would anyone argue that there's anything false about his statement?

Maybe the comment should be

"Sad when a club has to sell it's soul in order to survive"

Years of mismanagement going back to Sam Hammam have unfortunately left us in a position where we would appear to have little choice.

Let's be fair it's not to survive though really.

They could have easily put enough money in to keep the club afloat without changing the kit colour etc...

This plan is specifically designed with the intention of becoming a Premier League force

Which is something we'd all want of course, but not under these circumstances surely...

The main words being......... "has to"
The other point should be for "survival" and not "in search of success".

End of argument. (unless anyone has any options?)

We are still loosing a one million a month, and with the new training facillities, stadium expansion, and wages means were going to be loosing even more money a month. All hes doing is putting his money uptop instead of paying it monthly.

If we dont get promoted next season or season after we maybe losing even more than 12 million a year which will break the financial rules and then be docked points at the start of the season or whatever the punishment is.
