Careful what you wish for? Well this is what we wished for… 22:06 - Oct 3 with 2683 views | unstableblue | That first half display was total Ipswich, total football, total McKenna. Progressive, technical football… but with real dogged determination and incredible pressing. Hull looked high quality for the first 5 mins and then we blew them away. I said tonight would be a real marker for the rest of the season. Huddersfield was an off day, however you spin it. McKenna has set an incredible culture, it’s a true squad team at the moment. So much competition across the squad… but without friction. Edmundson, Hladky, Harness, Williams were superb tonight… meaning we can rest Broadhead, keep Omari in the wings, handle a Burgess injury. Morsy drove us on. Maybe the only negative is we don’t have a straight replacement for our captain. |  |

To be fair Sutton (and lots of others) knew that MM was effectively keeping the club afloat. Evans leaving was the pivotal moment here, not MM. |  | |  |

Yes Evans leaving was pivotal, but you could give Mick £100m. We'd never play like this. |  | |  |

Agreed. But Evans was never going to appoint a McKenna is my point. |  | |  |
Wow - Burgess wasn’t injured, just a switch for in form Edmundson on 22:18 - Oct 3 with 2460 views | unstableblue | And better suited to the attacker What a manager |  |

He was right though - we imploded after MM, fortunately Gamechanger rode in and saved us. |  |

And what exactly was wrong with Chambo’s punts down into the channels? (Rhetorical question obviously). The difference is like night and day isn’t it. |  |

I can't remember the stat now but didn't every team Mick left end up relegated or something like that. While here Mick certainly did an Us vs the rest attitude which is fine. However with us especially it ended up being players vs fans which wasn't healthy. Coming out of that was certainly going to be difficult in itself but the Hirst then Lambert appointments (and then contract extension WTF?? haha) were very bad decisions.

Given he nearly got us up with a budget of Panini swapsies and some belly button fluff I don't think it's much of a stretch to think he'd have taken us up with £100m to spend. |  |

I said he'd never have us playing this way............ And i doubt we'd have been in their more than 1 season anyway. |  | |  |

While there's a big element of truth in that, it always amused and puzzled me that Mick was so quick to boast that teams get relegated when he leaves them. It's not a good thing. |  |
