What has ITFC & its staff got to do with him? |
Journalists asking him questions about us.
Also obvious, even during his time with us, that he built a lot of togetherness and relationships over the 6 years here. |  |

A quality football manager would have deflected that osrt of questoin with a remark - "I am no longer involved with Ipswich Town so I am not in a potition to comment" - or similar.
What he did was to turn many away and give us a poor quality product not worht the gate fee
He sowed the seeds for the harvest we are reaping now.
Shouldn't his comments be limited to his present employment - until he screws that up - again? | | | |

And he’s perfectly entitled to answer those questions. But I don’t think he should be talking about players wages. |  |

Why should he have to deflect certain interview questions just because some peoples feelings might get hurt on an internet forum? |  | | |

Is it a fact that MM had a major input to many of our players contracts,are these not covered by Data Protection. | | | |

Some players or the club might not be impressed with him revealing that information as it is private.
Doesn’t bother me in the slightest and I’m sure it won’t bother most but it is unprofessional behaviour |  |

Yes I’m not sure why they keep asking him about us, it’s been done to death now and I can’t believe they actually asked him how much less the experienced players will now be earning. |  | | |

Why should he do that?
The job he did was taken for granted. Now it seems he's getting the credit he's due based on what's happened to us since.
Even then I don't think he's particularly enjoying our plight. It was also his legacy of a young, valuable but sustainable side that was ripped to pieces. | |

It’s not Mick’s place to be revealing details of their contracts. | | | |

Unfortunately, that's the view from outside.
Rightly or wrongly, same as the outside view we have of other clubs and what they deserve.
We'll be the club that got what it wished for. Let's just hope we bounce back so that doesn't look even worse than it does now. | |

I've defended MM for ages but this is going too far. He's also getting snippy about the financial side of things now despite his bi-weekly "I knew the job when I signed up and have no complaints" speech. | |

I think people take it far too seriously.
It's fair comment from someone who a) knows what he's talking about and b) is being asked for his comments by journalists. | |

Let’s hope so. I’m sure Sheffield Utd fans wished for better than league one for five years or whatever it was. | | | |

I don't think anyone is too bothered. Just most people can see it's a bit out of order to talk publicly about player contracts. Even if you only look at the impact it could have on the club, other clubs now know most of our experienced players can probably have their head turned by an offer of Championship money. | |

Exactly, I’m not going to lose any sleep over it but it’s obviously a step too far for an ex manager to make these kind of comments.
It lacks class and that’s not something you could often say of Mick.
I’ve no idea if he was asked directly (seems unlikely) but, even if he was, MM is perfectly capable of deflecting or telling them it’s a totally inappropriate question. | | | |

Phil: 'Hi Mick. It's Phil Ham here.
MM: Hey Oop Hammsy. What can I do for you?
PH: Well TWTD is a bit quiet today. Anything you could say to help?
MM: Leave it to me. I've just got t'feed t'whippet and then I've got an interview to give. I'll say summat in that to help you out. Should I mention the cheese the fans sent me?
PH: Best leave that until things get really bad. Thanks Mick. Now, if you'll excuse me I've got to another level in Candy Crush. |  |

But the idea that relegation clauses meant that wages were cut by half or more was already out there. We’ve been talking about it on here for weeks, maybe even a couple of months. | |

I'm amazed that journalists are so interested in lil ol Ipswich for Mick to answer questions about. Perhaps there's not much to discuss regarding Ireland. It smacks of ' if I was still at Ipswich then they wouldn't be taking a pay cut am I not wonderfull ? '
Now, I loved Mick and didn't get the hate thing for him but all this schizzle is losing him points in my book. For goodness sake Mick its all done and you got the Ireland job for yourself, now move on . |  | | |

Agree he's clearly a lot more bitter than he would like to let on. I understand it. He had a nice little job on good money and little pressure. He did also get unfair stick from a minority but his time was up. | |
