| Highly recommend the David Johnson BlueMonday Interview podcast 15:03 - Apr 13 with 342 views | unstableblue |
itfcjoe put me onto it as well as the Marcus Stewart interview, on the back of the recent and frankly excellent Magilton and Holland interviews.
Marcus is still worth a listen, but he is a little more reserved and less insightful than the others.
But I would say David Johnson’s provides some of the best insights, he’s a sharp guy. It’s slightly more in depth and goes into his time with Man U, and importantly Bury, which is good juxtaposition with Ipswich, with Town at the time becoming a very well run club, and a huge step up for him. The interview is bookended with the bad luck that meant he didn’t make it in the Premiership with Town and his move/time at Forest.
For me the same themes are emerging from these four interviews:
- there is an ‘Ipswich Way’ and it is built on good on the floor or aggressive forward passing, and movement. Deep down Town fans demand it
- that wonderful period in Town history coincided with a very strong Championship making our success even more impressive
- Burley and Sheepshanks were constantly progressing the club, in terms of playing system and personnel
- it was a team of characters and leaders, but a squad of good quality
- the Magilton and Stewart signings were the catalyst
- the Bolton semi second leg is the stuff of legends
- Richard Naylor was a far more influential player than many realise
