To be fair, first thing at work today a proper United fan stopped me and was poking about with what I thought about McKenna's situation.

They were very much defensive about their "social media fans" not representing the views of proper fans. Made me think they'd be keen to have him a bit like people who wanted Hurst here.

I know we say ‘can’t turn that down’ etc but…it’s a bit early in his career to be going there, see also Lampard going to Chelsea.

Starting to not only dislike the situation but the reason why these stories are coming out

This could easily be nipped in the bud no ?

Both KMcK and the club come out and make an announcement if he’s staying

On the contrary if he’s not , just get it done and move on

Easy to say in hindsight, and managers have stepped up to the ‘big boys’ and being knocked back down again pretty quickly, it’s just a different ball game managing a big team, with egos out of control, clueless fan bases, owners who haven’t got a clue about football on power trips.

Only the very few elite can sustain success at big club.

However, when one of the big boys come calling, and they are your dream job, you simply can’t turn it down.

Hope he’s ready for the Manure squad that has no respect for him, “The Teacher”…. He really would be foolish to leave Ipswich right now. ….. fools gold being offered by so many suitors, it seems. These big clubs hire n fire at will if you don’t deliver and these “ expect” instant results. Don’t do it Kieran, you’ll regret it.

Whoever ends up getting that job (assuming there’s a job to fill), Man Utd will have spoken to several candidates.

Every club hires and fires at will. I doubt we'd have given Mckenna more than a season if we hadn't have got at least into the league 1 playoffs

It’s actually becoming incredibly unprofessional the public flaunting by his representatives, which is very unlike Kieran McKenna nature.

Of course discussions occur, but the public nature of this is becoming very unprofessional.

It’s also very poor form given Erik Ten Hag is still in a job and has an FA Cup Final this weekend.

How do you know this one is coming from his representatives? They said on Talksport on Simon Jordan's show that a source at United had said there'd been talks, this is very likely Sky hearing the same or rehashing another story.

I just don't see it. Although McKenna has done a fantastic job from a attacking point of view defensively not so good and unless united intend to spend big ti's could turn into a nightmare for McKenna.

I think McKenna is capable of managing United and would do very well. It’s the only club I wouldn’t mind seeing him move to. He’s such a brilliant manager and person. But if it’s going to happen, please put us out of our misery so we can move on.

just to add me two cents, from the whispers and chats around the club, brighton and chelsea are a no go for McKenna and wont happen.

Man Utd on the other hand does have legs but i dont see it happening, i see 1 more season at portman road

We’re getting to a stage where fans are going to resent him even if he stays. It’s getting messy.

The problem with this theory is that it assumes Man Utd won’t appoint their next Arteta, Guardiola or Klopp who has a fantastic season next year and Kieran’s chance will have gone for a decade

“I have spread my dreams under your feet, tread softly, for you tread upon my dreams”

His dream is to manage them, and such dreams are built on optimism and all that goes with that. Reality isn’t the stuff of dreams. How it unfolds, time can only tell.

Bit, if it is indeed offered, he’ll jump. Youthful exuberance to mix with his dream. He’ll get little or no quarter from their dressing room, media, fans etc. They won’t tread lightly. He might know that. But.

We can only hope that if it is to happen, it will happen soon as this whole business is beginning to reek of McK being bigger than our club. He isn’t and never will be. Notwithstanding his great success here. He’s got great talent. But his gaze is elsewhere.

I had hoped he’d stay and take a chance on us, but we’re in against much bigger fish now.

Anthony Barry, Graham Potter, AN Other. We may be having that discussion next week with names and names and who is who.

We have our biggest season in a long time ahead. The sooner we get focused on that with a manager who wants to be part of that, and fully committed to that, the better.
