MA and Brizzle fans on 19:34 - Sep 1 with 2052 views | Guthrum | He is supposed to have beggared the club by doing it. Not much evidence of that here. Also signing one poor manager. |  |

MA and Brizzle fans on 19:44 - Sep 1 with 1750 views | burnbudgiesburn | Yes, Ashton has been disastrous for this club clearly. I long for free signings, a lick of paint on the turnstiles being 'progressive' and I miss Fleetwood away. I assume there's a 94 page thread on the Brizzle forum you could post in to stroke their egos if you want. |  | |  |

No. We all have to read bloots' post. |  |

It is entertaining I suppose. We’ll need some distractions now the window has SLAMMED shut and we’re on an international break. |  |

The best players don’t necessarily make the best team. |  | |  |
MA and Brizzle fans on 20:07 - Sep 1 with 1291 views | trncbluearmy | and there was I thinking we have unloaded players who have reached their ceiling replaced by players who have much higher ceilings all for the cost of Omari's transfer fee. Ashton deserves some credit perhaps |  | |  |

Maybe we should see if they are the best first before mao img about Ashton approach to the window ? We could easily be saying masterstroke come May |  |

Let’s see if we can become a team then,because at the moment there isn’t any evidence of it. We look all over the shop. And I’m sick of hearing we have to gel. All clubs have lots of new players they seem to get on with it. |  | |  |

But that's exactly what we do need to do I remember those fans having a go at Morsy v Accrington Stanley, yet a few months later ITFC were unbeatable Albeit at a much higher level the situation is very similar, It takes time to build a team |  | |  |
MA and Brizzle fans on 21:15 - Sep 1 with 752 views | ITFCSG | More than one Bristol C fan has told me that MA loves to talk big but fails to deliver results. Loves the limelight but goes into hiding when things aren't going well. Let's see, shall we? |  | |  |

Don’t know how any Ipswich fan can say not delivered results. Most fans would give their right arm for our last 3 seasons. |  |

Add to that buying players for inflated prices/wages whobare no better that what they currently have e.g. Kasey Palmer, Kalas, Masengo etc etc At Bristol City MA had free reign, I imagine our American owners will be holding him more accountable than Lansdowne. |  |

MA and Brizzle fans on 21:34 - Sep 1 with 560 views | waveneyblue | I dont recall them a) having a decent squad b) getting in the Prem League c) Spending £120m or whatever So in a nutshell, youve got it wrong. But youve had a dig at Ashton which is uber trendy on here at the moment (although wasnt Froday funny enough), so well done |  | |  |

I don’t think the “Ashton loves the limelight and hides when things go wrong” line really holds water. I’ve never felt the guy’s been particularly over-exposed and he’s hardly a rent-a-gob on broader football matters. As for hiding when things go badly, frankly that would only be an issue if McKenna was having trouble with being able to discuss things with him. If Ashton had come out to the media after each defeat stacked up over the second half of last season, I don’t think it would have made a blind bit of difference to our results. This is an interesting next two years for him, I suspect as it will hopefully be the second great team he’s helped put together. It strikes me though that it may take two years to get back up, simply because as the saying goes, the rocket ship is still being built in mid-air. [Post edited 1 Sep 21:44]

MA and Brizzle fans on 22:34 - Sep 1 with 222 views | Blooos | People have short memories, Mark Ashton is a large reason as to how we got to enjoy 2 of the best years as Ipswich fans we could’ve possibly imagined. Back to back promotions isn’t something every team does, might not happen again for a long time. Yes maybe he likes the limelight a little but who cares, he’s given me everything I wanted as for football moments / memories over the last few years. |  | |  |

Really? Not so long ago, we were being embarrassed by the likes of Lincoln, Accrington and Northampton. At that time, I would happily have given my right arm for a season in the Premier League, even one as disappointing as last year. |  | |  |
