And I’m not just talking about Mick’s playing style. I’m referring to these threads.
I have no idea why he gets so much air time. It was a terrible period in our history on and off the pitch. He wasn’t the worst manager ever but obviously not a great either.
It’s like we need to keep dusting off the “best manager under Marcus Evans” award. Actually that was Jim. |  | | |

Ipswich with Skuse, Hyam and Douglas at home to Rotherham. And we still lost. Such a genius he was. |  | | |

Does not matter if these players where loans or cheap buys , good work from Bowden ? We were lead to believe,
we still had these players to work with but Mi k just decided to set up to defend and defend home or away boring boring football . Well that's if you could call it football , the ground was a depressing place to be and I and many others well pleased to see the back of him . |  | | |

The years that followed McCarthy were far worse and a greater existential threat to the club.
November 2012 - May 2015 should, at the very least, be remembered fondly. Continual improvement, bigger crowds without the starting point of a large budget or the backroom support that the club has put in place now. |
The threat to the club had nothing to do with the managers. That lay at Evans’ door. Saying it was worse after Mick is like saying you’ve lost a leg, but it could be worse. You could lose two. And so we did.
MM offered some good moments. Escaping relegation by good organisation, pinching a goal and defending for our lives. DJ n all that. The build to a passable competitive team. Up n at em, bully teams out of it, Murphy’s golden season, McGoldrick’s brilliance, Leeds 10 men hammered on a chilly afternoon, Middlesbrough well beaten, Charlton, Watford away, Anderson’s equaliser. Moments. A chance we might pull off a miracle against the odds sort of Luton style - for just that one season.
No I don’t remember 2012 - 2015 fondly. I view those seasons with respect and actually a tad of sadness. We should and could have been better than that and might have been with an owner who was interested. [Post edited 6 Oct 2023 22:03]
