    Great to see the owners are still 100% committed to the club

    Basically the Raksriaksorn's own the club but they parent company is now the same company that owns King Power.

    So Asian Football investments no longer own Leicester City

    Good.

    ASI always had me wondering whether they were something dodgy, good to be fully owned by KP.

    Agreed. Its now crystal clear for everyone to so who owns Leicester City. Under AFI it would have been easy to cover up other owners

    Pretty sure this will have some financial advantage for them.

    Not a WUM...

    But don't you think this comment could be proven untrue if rumours about Pearson only having a few games left and 'Arry/Adkins being touted as potential replacements should the latter get the sack from Southampton?

    "“The last two years have been an incredible experience and we firmly believe we have the key elements in place, both on and off the pitch, to take Leicester City back to the Premier League."

    Even easier now for us to bend the FFP rules

    Off the pitch we have grew no end this the Raksriaksorn's took over. We are now a bigger brand, stadium brought into the 21st century and training ground is now one of the best in country. Youth academy also has been invested into. On the pitch things have yet to click but we have players like King, Moore, Marshall, Knockaert, Drinkwater, James, De Laet, Schmeichel, Schlupp. All young and we have long and succesful careers here. Should they choose to move on we would be due a very decent fee for them

    Makes sense, that didn't occur to me for some reason. I just read 'off the pitch' to mean the management team. All looks bright for your future anyway, the owners just need to learn patience now, as getting out of this league requires it.

    Harry won't ever come to the Championship and Southampton won't get rid of the guy that took them up straight from L1 and got them playing so well.
