| I don't dislike Mick 12:41 - Apr 13 with 970 views | wkj |
However I am in the camp of people who feels he and the club need to look at different directions in the summer. Mick's football isn't interesting or in my opinion worth the cost Ipswich charges, however it is probably the best formula for the squad that he had.
I am still very much in the mindset that the problems are higher up the hierachy of the club. The level of backing Mick has had vs his predecessors has been pitiful, despite having made the club the most on transfer fees.
I think Mick has to go for three reasons-
1. He is better than the level of support he is being giving, and the brass are quite frankly taking advantage of the situation, with Milne even taking a back handed swipe at him on a recent radio show in a lazy attempt to shift focus away from the club.
2. If town wants to provide us with '5 Point Plans' they need to have a manager in place who is proven working in such a structure. MM hasn't had the best track record with younger players, so it is almost impossible to imagine MM will suddenly conform to this plan.
3. We just need a new coat of paint. I think the only way to get season ticket numbers up, is to promise something different next year, and if such changes won't hapen in the board room, the next logical conclusion is that it has to begin with the head coach who controls what we see- regardless of if that brings better or worse results.

My Dad summed it up quite nicely on the way back from Fulham, he said "Mick isn't the source of the problem at Ipswich, but I can't see him providing the solution". I would agree with that. |  |

Essentially, both of these. |  |

Well said. On the whole MM has done a good job here and we shouldn't let the current climate distort what has been overall a decent few years. That said, he is not the answer to our problems. [Post edited 13 Apr 2017 12:52]

It's quite right and the only way of effectively generating something from nothing is turning things round on the pitch, and a clear out plus change of philosophy which I can only really see under a different manager. But as we all keep harping on about, can we really see Evans making the right decision on a new manager of the type we probably need? |  | | |

I have to say that I would have thought MM would consider himself a higher standard manager. He said when he came here that he didn't have to, he'd had lots of offers and we weren't currently an attractive position. When linked within ireland and Villa goes quiet, says his ambition is to be PL manager or more. Now says he would never walk out on a job, gloats that he is unsackable, brings up the fact we have no money as a way to stroke his ego rather than criticise the club for him not being a bigger success.
It's all a bit, as he would say, bonkers |  |

Agree there are problems throughout the club which have to be addressed , but with MM being the only public face of ITFC , he is doing a very bad job of things .
He is arrogant and is now constantly having a pop at the fans who are the paying customers of the club ..............that simply can't continue and I think things have gone too far in that respect to be put right .
The club is in need of a new strategy and that has to start with appointing a new manager before we slip even further . |  | | |
