I think Joe mentioned in one of the other threads on this but 4mil is actually pretty high for a manager. Tottenham wouldn't spend 8mil on a manager (Arne Slot) which is trivial compared to some of the players they buy.
The reason suggested is that you have to pay for them and then if it goes wrong you have to pay to sack them and their managerial staff, there's no sell-on value in most cases. |  |

IF the reported figure is true, don't forget McKenna would have to agree to put it in the contract. This is just Ipswich covering themselves.
At the end of the day, any club offering £4m doesn't mean they get him. It will be KMc's decision.
I'm really relaxed about it, from everything I see and hear him say about the 'project' I don't see him leaving us for anyone but a top 6 club. |  | | |

I wonder if we put Pert, Grant & co on contracts with similar clauses in their recent renewal. | | | |

I hope so as that would be another way to prevent Kmac from being poached as I am sure that he would want his team to go with him wherever he went next... |  | | |

By managerial compensation standards it's actually high. These things generally are designed as a deterrent, to encourage potential suitors to maybe favour alternatives rather than buy out McKenna and his whole team. The reality is if KM gets to point where there's a job he wants, and who wants him, it's going to be very difficult to do anything about it.
The biggest hook we have right now isn't the buyout but the potential that he could get us up to the premier league. He'll want to manage there soon I imagine, and what better way to have a crack at that than to do it here in a place where he has a huge amount of security and credit in the bank, owners who will back him, a chance to leave a genuine legacy and stay in an area and club he and his family are seemingly really happy at. Until we get to a point where that doesn't materialise or looks unlikely to I think we're relatively safe. |  | | |
