What an ungrateful entitled lot we seem to have as fans. 07:26 - May 25 with 12185 viewshomer_123

Frankly, it's embarrassing.

Some of you lot don't deserve the last couple of years.

The garbage, vitriol and general sh*t being posted is a slight on the Club and on KM.

Wind your necks in and STFU.

Hilarious innit. It’s another classic TWTD period in the making.


More than hilarious. It could tip the balance and be self fulfilling.

I'm now laughing at the idea you think Sky Sports News is some bastian of truth seeking investigative journalism and way above the tabloids.


You asked for evidence, I gave you evidence... Sky sports news have their sources, it's what they do..

I have no idea why you've felt the need to start an argument with me, a fellow town fan about any of this stuff.. all I've done is state an opinion.. I haven't stated it as fact, I've stated it as my opinion on it..

For the record, I don't want McKenna to leave, far from it.. nor have I slagged off McKenna either.. all I've said is that the situation, as it has played out is not a good look... I'm not the only one to have said it, yet you seem to have singled me out in this thread.. I'm going to leave it at that... I don't want McKenna to leave, he's done an amazing job in getting us here and has more work to do..

McKenna hasn't said he wants to leave, which is great.. the noise has come as a result of his agents speaking to other clubs.. now, whether that was instigated by them or the club remains to be seen.. fingers crossed that McKenna stays with us for the foreseeable future

How am I speculating?! It was reported by SSN yesterday that his representatives had spoken with Man United... That's all I said.. no speculation

I've said I don't want McKenna to leave, I've not "wet the bed" I've literally not done anything, other than say that the way this has been played out in public is not a good look and I've got pelters for it!!

No, evidence is actual proof. Do you seriously believe everything Sky Sports says?

Read back what you've written. You initially stated it as fact (although you've rowed back more recently and called it opinion). "Fact he's wanting out is a real kick in the balls" for example.

"nor have I slagged off McKenna either"
- "for such a measured and classy person this doesn't reflect well on McKenna, it just doesn't.." - "If he does stay then you'd have to question whether he is still truly committed to us"...

I haven't singled you out - I've pointed out to several posters where they're talking unsubstantiated nonsense.

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

All speculation.

I can't help but think it reflects very poorly on us and may even play a part in any potential decision Kieran McKenna may or may not have to make.

I said on another thread- it really could be that this is an unfortunate echo of things to come, lose a few games on the bounce and the less patient amongst us who have become used to winning such a number of games will be baying for blood.
Let's not forget that some of these were calling for his head around the time of the Bristol Rovers game a while ago...

The majority of decent people a, don’t post on social media or b, have enough respect to just keep quiet and wait to see what’s going to happen. The minority are the ones who push their extreme agendas and ultimately get noticed the most. A lot of social media is very toxic and you take it seriously at your peril imo. Hence why many people have been checking out of the circus this week I’ve noticed.

Deary me... Where to start with this..

It was reported by Rob Dorsett, 1 of sky sports news senior reporters.. for him to run that story he will have had to have done his homework.. verify the source etc before he broke that news... I haven't made it up, it was reported yesterday, that's all I've said..

The rest of your post is just nonsense... How do I know sky sports now that information? Do I need to know how they know it?!

I can only go by what was reported by SSN at the time, as a concerned Ipswich fan, who doesn't want to lose our most successful manager in the last 20 years...

And finally, have I ever claimed to know what McKenna thinks about it?

I'm not saying I believe everything they say, same as the rest of the media, as I don't.. but for them to report what they did yesterday they would have had to have fact checked everything and verified it was true, before reporting it..

Stuart Watson has often spoken of what is required before they run a story.. sky must be the same as the Ipswich star at least, if not, more stringent in their checks and reporting

No. I don't think this is correct mate.
Sky play for percentages. Eventually they will get a call right.
They deal in so much speculation, they can afford to just move on to the next story.
They are happy to hawk around even the most speculative on the off chance one might be right.
I doubt they set themselves a particularly high bar for truth vs bobbins. They don't need to.
Stuart Watson and other local reporters have reputations to protect, so the burden of accuracy has to be much higher.
You're comparing apples with pears with your assumption to be honest.

You've answered your own conundrum there. Stuart Watson hasn't reported that McKenna wants out etc., and has been at pains to say he won't write up such stuff unless he can find proof. SSN, meanwhile, did run that story. Do they have more insight than a local reporter who we know is very close with Ashton/the club? Or do they have less stringent checks and are just looking for attention grabbing headlines?

"Sky must be the same as the Ipswich star at least, if not, more stringent in their checks and reporting." Really? Why?
