Go on, say you're sorry..... on 20:03 - Mar 27 by jeera | Really? After a few beers do you not still swear about Brexit and swing open your doors and windows and shout at your neighbours for their stupidity? No? Just me then. |
I don't need beers to swear about the idiots who fell for the Brexit con! It's the first thing I do when I get up. Some people have a cup of tea or meditate. I swear like a trooper at Brexidiots, like a drunk haranguing pigeons in the park. Def info. |  |

Dislike it if you like but it's true. Micks time was up and everyone knew it, the club was stale... it was our worst league position for I donr know long and the football had become appalling. We deserved better. Evans made the wrong choice sure but it doesn't change the fact that Mick had to go... he'd been here too long, fresh ideas were needed, it's just a shame they came from Hurst |  |

5 years ago on a Saturday night were you happier being 12th in the Championship compared to 12th in League 1?! It’s boring horrendous football however you look at it. Not worthy of a ‘wow’ is it? |  | |  |

Go on, say you're sorry..... on 18:37 - Mar 27 by jeera | He's got a point! Besides, I still want to know exactly what it was that poor ol' Daisy did to deserve such a label. I only know it was food related, which led to many a disagreement with my own dogs in the past. The ungrateful, greedy, thieving so & so's. |
Does he have a point though? I've said it before but I'd be very surprised if a few hundred angry weirdos were the reason for Evans choosing to not renew McCarthy's contract, I'd guess it had more to do with the rapidly shrinking attendances. Is it fair to blame people for choosing to not spend their own money? I personally don't think it is. And I say this as someone who doesn't feel particularly strongly either way about McCarthy. |  |

We didn't get to the point of renewing contracts or not. He'd walked out before that. This is rewriting and irrelevant anyway. [Post edited 27 Mar 2021 21:43]

Once again, what is wrong with you people? You said this: "Mick delivered our worst position for how many years" Now look where we are. That's the point. So don't keep changing your stance each and every time you get challenged on it looking to score points. Either this "Mick delivered our worst position for how many years" counts now or it doesn't. It's not complicated. Some of us saw what was coming, some of you didn't. You crow in your own ignorance then try to make out it's everyone else. |  |

Where have I changed my stance? You're saying you shouldn't sack someone for poor performance in case the next person is even worse. |  |

Yet again, what are you talking about? I have quoted your own sentence 3 times. You insist on replying with something different every time. But when I saw this coming earlier on and said I wouldn't get involved I got accused of being 'wound up' by Portman thingy person. You have to wonder at some of the mentality on here at times. My humble advice to people would be, 'Read what is written, and not what you want to see is written'. Then life will be a lot simpler. |  |

McCarthy walked out after the Barnsley game, it was confirmed his contract wasn't being renewed after the Bristol City game three weeks earlier. So in this instance you're actually the one rewriting history lol. Struggling to see how my post is rewriting anyway, the only thing I state as fact is that attendances were shrinking (a fact), the rest is just my opinion on what Evans would have done and whether it's fair to blame people for not spending their own money.

Fine thanks you are the one that bought BREXIT into it or can you not remember your post.moaning about it? So as I said both subjects have had their day. Now have a drink and watch the last frame of the snooker it’s quite good. |  | |  |

I think using the phrase 'winding up' in a post concerning Ipswich Town is unwise. It may turn out to be somewhat prophetic |  | |  |

Did you even read the post you responded to? Did you not notice I was sharing a joke with Swansea as an aside on a different post altogether? Please don't challenge me on the basics. [Post edited 28 Mar 2021 9:03]

This argument is flawed as there’s three-years and three managers worth of hindsight to make that claim. No-ones arguing we’d be in a better league and probably division position had Mick stayed but given how low we’d sunk (at the time) and how stagnant it had become, it was (at the time) a period for change - this much was painfully obvious. The fall out from that isn’t a Mick or the fans fault (as Mullet would dearly love everyone to believe). We rolled the dice and came up short. Did we have to roll the dice? The wide consensus was, yes. Only those who were ardent Mick fans are now saying “I told you so”, when that’s also a bit of revisionism. If I recall, the main debate was that if Evans wasn’t going to back Mick then we should get someone in who he would back. Obviously, Evans didn’t do that either. We are where we are based on a sequence of negative events presided over by a litany of poor decision making, not a singular even or catalyst. [Post edited 28 Mar 2021 10:36]
