Rommers' digging up an old post for an "I told you so..." got me thinking, when have you been absolutely spot on with and when have you done a Frimmers in public?
The one I got right: Michael Clegg, 15 minutes into his debut (at Crewe?) I suggested he return to Old Trafford given his lack of footballing ability. He only played 3 games, not before costing us points that I think cost us promotion.
Frimmers moment. Thought Roy Keane was just what we needed... |  |

Wrong: Sheepy was a financially savvy businessman who wouldn’t repeat the mistakes of the 80s in building new stands.
Right: That Paul Hurst wasn’t going to work very early on, selling Webster cheaply was the first alarm bell, but the total collapse 20 minutes into the first game was clear evidence he was out of his depth.
I was sceptical about Cook early on too but at least he had a track record at this level. |
To be fair, DS didn't repeat the mistakes of the eighties with the stands as they weren't the reason behind administration and Hurst had nothing to do with the sale of Webster! |  | | |

So you can add those to your wrong list! |  | | |

No, different ones (plus ITV DIgital which wasn’t his fault) but would we have gone into administration without them?
With Webster it was more the fact we sold him so cheaply, which I doubt MM would have acceded to, that caused me concerns. It was the start to the season that was the real problem. |  |

Right - Hurst was a lemon, from (I think) perhaps the second game in.
Wrong - JET would be the best Ipswich player since the Robson era.
I still love JET. |  | | |

Yes, they weren't the issue, the issue was player contracts, which we were unable to offload as the transfer market collapsed, which we would have had had we built the new stands or otherwise. | | | |

Right: During the years of stagnation in mid table champ I always said if we got relegated we might attract the right type of investors and shift Evans; which would ultimately be good for the club in the long run. Think we can all agree we are on the right tracks.
Wrong: Blue tinted goggles telling everyone I know we are going up at the start of every season! Also defending Cook in the face of an atrocious record. |  |

And I don’t actually remember us falling to pieces in the first game. Though I do remember that we didn’t press as I expected. |  |

Right - That the club would finally be back on a positive projection as soon as we had a change of ownership. That every one of those EVANS OUT! posts would prove to be exactly what was required for the future prospects of our football club. I think I couldn’t have been any more correct quite frankly. Gamechanger are everything that Evans wasn’t.
Wrong - I was sure Paul Cook was the perfect manager for us and would get us promoted. Obviously it was clear after a while that this was not the case. |  |

Ladapo would be a prime target for KM
Thinking Luke Matheson was going to become a great town RB. |  |

Right, never ever wanted keane, more due to the fact I have an intense dislike of the man and never thought he was the right fit here.
Wrong, told my missus (long since gone) that we'd never witness treacle in a Town shirt again after his debut. |  |

Right: I messaged so many the second Keane was announced saying "this will end in tears."
Ditto Lambert.
Wrong: I thought Jewell would sneak us into 6th!
Ditto Cook. | |

Right: The bloke holding the Magilton Out bedsheet in the NS was a throbbing member
Wrong: Our fortunes would change for the better having been brought my a multi millionaire events mogul. |  |

My mate Doug Quelch (Douglas to his mum) used to tell me after every game that John Wark was sh1t
He was always a wrongun, went to join Babylon after leaving school.
He used to post on here but I can't remember under which handle and we lost touch. Stoabachasteve (sp) knew him - they were best mates
Last I heard he bought the rights to The Stig merchandise. |  |

The Stig merchandise rights in the last little while?
This sounds like a man to steer well clear of. | |

Thought Stewart was going to be a huge signing (didnt see how much)
After Paz's first game I thought we would do well to keep him. (ouch) |
To be fair, Paz’ debut was not far short of Finidi’s. |  | | |

I also have to admit that when JD was waiting for his work permit I was hoping it would be refused and we couldnt sign him.
Actually, I 've been wrong on a lot of things. I honestly cant say there is much I have been right about, at least not much that everybody else wasnt also right about.
The only thing I can possibly claim as a right thing was the KMcK would bring the Manchester United thing of the team arriving at the ground on the bus to FPR, but thats not much of a thing. |  |
