2:43Bob HarrisHOST
There was one person I wanted to meet more than anyone else, and that was our guest today.
B
2:48Bob HarrisHOST
And I called the BBC Radio Leicester sports desk, and they linked me through to his manager, who organized us to meet on, I think it was, uh, junction twenty-eight of the M1 service station at that point.
B
3:05Bob HarrisHOST
This would have been nineteen eighty-two, I think.
B
3:08Bob HarrisHOST

Leicester, 17th in League One after eight games.
A
32:06Aaron PaulHOST
And Chief Football Officer John Rudkin spoke to Owen Palmeratkin at BBC Radio Leicester before the game on Saturday.
J
32:12Jon RudkinSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
Yeah, obviously it's been a very disappointing period from the many heights that we've had and witnessed over the years.
J
32:21Jon RudkinSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
And we're all disappointed to see ourselves now sitting in League One and the position that we're in.
J
35:44Jon RudkinSOUNDBITE_SPEAKER
We've added James who's added to the expertise across the football club and to ensure that that strategy and the plan is in place and making sure that we're keeping on track going forward.
A
35:58Aaron PaulHOST
He was talking about James McCarron, sporting director at Leicester City.
A
36:01Aaron PaulHOST
So that was the voice of John Rudkin, chief football officer with Owen Palmer Atkin of BBC Radio Leicester, talking about their nothing short of disastrous, woeful start to the season.

E
11:48Emily HerbertGUEST
So I did just journalism at Leicester.
E
11:52Emily HerbertGUEST
And then I joined BBC Local, which was Leicester, BBC Radio Leicester at the time.
E
11:59Emily HerbertGUEST
And I was playing rugby at uni and Adam Whitty, the sports editor there, was like, oh, my God, a girl who plays sport will take her.
E
12:10Emily HerbertGUEST
So I joined the sports department.

22:40DavidHOST
We would stop the problem.
D
22:42DavidHOST
It just shows you that it's either something to do with the mind, i.e. we're not switched on, which I doubt, but also there was a bit of talk that Gloucester looked really up for it in their warm-up and some of the TNT guys when I watched the game back today and also a little bit of, I think I heard Tom Vandell talking about it in the BBC Radio Leicester pod that he'd spotted that he felt as though they were more intense, shall we say, in the pre-game warm-up.
D
23:12DavidHOST
Now, I'm sure Jeff Parling would look at that.
D
23:15DavidHOST

Big Strong Leicester Boys - 135 shots in 5 games, what more do you want?
J
12:48JordanHOST
Yeah, so, well, I did want to start with the actual football, but there's so much gone on off the pitch that I suppose we'd better talk about that.
J
12:59JordanHOST
I mean, the thing I probably want to kick off with is it's the first time we've heard from our esteemed Chief Football Officer, John Rudkin, for 10, 15 years maybe, with a very hastily cobbled together interview with BBC Radio Leicester.
J
13:16JordanHOST
I don't think anybody knew about it before basically they tweeted that they were going to be joined by John Rudkin.
J
13:24JordanHOST
It was conducted in the press box, which again, I find completely bizarre how many of the football clubs conduct an interview with their, well, other than the owner, of course, the sort of highest member of their staff in a press box, sort of an hour before a three o'clock kickoff.
