With everything going on with McKenna, even if he does end up staying, surely there’s now going to be a saltiness in the air? He’s clearly interested in other things and not 100% on us.. do we even want him anymore? With us going into the transfer market, it’s going to put potential players off coming here with all this noise now as a lot of players would join because of him. We can probably be sure Omari won’t be coming back now after all this.
I know he obviously isn’t an Ipswich fan like we are and clearly doesn’t have a connection to the club as much as we thought he did, clearly he’s more of a businessman than we thought. But we gave him his chance.
If he goes anywhere other than Man Utd which is clearly the job he wants then he can get fcked. Would be hoping he gets a hostile reaction if he returned as Brighton or Chelsea boss.

To take your tongue in cheek analogy and run with it…
The OP is akin to being with a beautiful woman, going out with her and being upset that she’s turning heads or that people want to talk to her. You’re seething and work yourself up about it so much that you get to the point where you say you don’t want to be with her because of it- cutting your nose off to spite your face in the process.
Funny connection!

No, but people are telling you that she is and you’re losing the plot at just the idea of it.
Someone trusted has suggested it's happening that way, though has also suggested the beautiful woman isn't happy about everything being so open. So can the woman not control the friend, or is she not really bothered enough to?

hahaha, it’s diluting now because I’m not sure anyone trusted has reported anything of the sort. Phil and co have reported on the reporting but their own comments have been minimal and balanced.
Norwich sports journalist certainly isn’t trustworthy and Sky Sports News are desperate for news between the season and euros. All we actually know is other clubs are considering him and that we’re prepared to offer a sizeable new contract to keep him.
Anything else is conjecture and some of those perpetrating the conjecture have a financial incentive to do so.

To clarify, it was Phil who suggested that the agent was behind the majority of the stories, especially the come and get me to Chelsea IIRC, as the agent has links. Thanks to all of this I've learned not to trust any of the press (still surprised to hear about the BBC) but I do trust him.
Ridiculous conclusion to the original post. If / when he says he is staying it will show enormous commitment which should make all of us feel even better about him.

As idiotic, Moronic, ill advised posts go this has to be almost top of the pile. If you are reading this Kiearn always remember these people walk among us but do not represent the majority.

Of course we want him but I would expect this media storm every time a premiership manager gets sacked. It would be tense wouldn't it. We need this sorted ASAP but in reality it hasn't been going on long, and just for another 7 days max I would say.
Do you know I am honestly beginning to think we should just sack him if this carries on much longer. I don't want to come across as a bedwetter but none of this is good for the club. If KM wants to stay then he needs to come out and state that he wont be listening to any offers. If he's going to remain on the fence and potentially open to offers then I think the disruption and uncertainty its causing is not good for the club and its pre-season preparations whatsoever, and Ashton should make his mind up for him and give him the boot. We don't want anybody who isn't 100% committed.

Because with a large pay rise imminent to keep us, we'd all tell our employer that we were staying in advance so they could reduce the offer wouldn't we???
It's 106 miles to Portman Road, we've got a full tank of gas, half a round of Port Salut, it's dark... and we're wearing blue tinted sunglasses.

So, we pay up his contract and forego the compensation - that's just cost the club £11m then. However much we get as a club from TV payments, this club will never be in a position to treat 11m as chump change because we feel like a jilted lover.
Personally, I think Ashton already knows where Town are likely to stand and will do the best for us in that siutation. I'd assume the data dashboard is already fired up and spitting out managerial possibilities.

This getting silly now. Thread after thread slagging off McKenna.
i think a few feathered friends trying to stir the crap. i'm amazed at the reactions on here from the click bait press articles about mckenna could be leaving us. that's what is mostly click bait.
forensic experts say footers and spruces fingerprints were not found at the scene after the weekends rows

Yes, I think Ashton knows exactly what is going on and what his position is. I don't think McKenna is going behind his back at all or lying to him - they have a great relationship.
People can keep saying 'this isn't good for us' but we aren't at all privy to what is going on at all. The speculation obviously isn't good and it has been damn disrespectful at times but it sounds like it has been business as usual for McKenna this week from what Stuart Watson and a couple of others have said. They've been talking plans for the new season.

Yes, we do - and it is unfair for us to give KM pelters for agent fuelled rumours. It is a shock to the system, but this is what being a premier league team is like for fans - especially teams expected to struggle who have clear stand-out talent. McKenna is the talk right now, but pretty soon Leif Davis will probably go through this exact process too.
