As much as I am in total admiration of him I’m not sure if I want him coming back with his tail between his legs. It would be akin to your partner being open to the advances of another but returning back to you when the others lose interest.
Surely it would only be a matter of time before their head is turned again.
I’m starting to get a bit p!ssed off now as what was looking like exciting times ahead could be a real struggle now as the club will be unsettled from top to bottom. |  | | |  |

Must admit, I'm looking forward to a new man at the helm and stability. McK hasn't done himself any favours and obviously wants out. Even if he stayed, there's no way he'll be held in the regard he was previously. |
So to confirm, you expect him to say to Man United:
"Cheers for the interest but I don't really fancy managing one of the biggest clubs in the world who I supported as a lad".
Utterly bonkers.

It's incredible isn't it? Arguably the biggest club on the planet and people are criticising him. |
I don't even know what to say any more.
People have lost their minds.

The only thing that will change how he is viewed at this club is results. Media speculation is not going to turn everyone against him |  | | |

Bobby Robson spoke to several clubs during his time here. He agreed terms with Everton around 76/77. It comes with being successful at a smaller club. We never stopped loving Bobby. |  |

Shut up. |
🤣🤣
Not saying he shouldn't talk to mu if he wants. Just from our point of view, if he's going to leave, get a new man in sooner rather than later. |  |

He's being courted by Man United FFS, any manager in our history would speak to their representatives.
If he stays that's brilliant, to say you don't want him coming back is utterly ridiculous as is your analogy.

The word is he also spoke with Crystal Palace before they got Glasner and Has Brighton hardly man utd. I semi understand a top 6 side. |  | | |

People have seriously lost their f-ing minds over this. 'coming back with his tail between his legs' Can you imagine when he was appointed being told that it would go so well he would be a serious candidate for the Chelsea and Man Utd jobs in such a short space of time? It was unthinkable. Of course he's going to talk to them and see what the situation is, anyone would in his position. I desperately hope he stays because he's been nothing short of outstanding from day one. Some of our so called fans don't deserve him, that's for sure. |  | | |

He's not coming back, because he hasn't been away. He's still Manager of Ipswich Town.
Have you never looked at other jobs while still employed? The process at that level is a bit more involved than just scrolling through a few agency websites. Means actually talking to people.
Reckon he might prefer it if everything didn't instantly leak to the press, but that's just the environment he's working in. |
No, it’s because he has agents who are leaking everything to the press. If he had no agents or total control of his agents, all of this sh1tshow could have been avoided. | | | |

I would say I am amazed that so many football fans are unaware of such obvious realities as "success means bigger clubs will eye up your manager" and "when big clubs come calling with serious money and opportunities, up and coming managers will seriously consider it" but I have seen it too many times from too many fans of too many clubs.
"Why would manager X want to leave Torquay after a great season and go to Doncaster?"
"Why would manager X want to leave Doncaster after a great season and go to Hull?"
"Why would manager X want to leave Hull after a great season and go to Palace?"
"Why would manager X want to leave Palace after a great season and go to Arsenal?"
There is a clue in there somewhere. If Ipswich lose McKenna and go for a manager further down, Ipswich fans would be aghast if that manager did not have the ambition to leave his current role and move to Portman Road.
Successful managers get mouth watering opportunities which hurt their current club when they leave. It's annoying, irritating, and sometimes infuriating, but it is reality. [Post edited 23 May 2024 21:09]
