McKenna is a class act. 07:58 - Sep 23 with 3097 viewsChurchman

There is a little article in the Daily Mail on McKenna.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-11240833/Its-reason-Im-Ipswic

What I like about KM is that he gives information, his thoughts without giving too much away. In the nine months he’s been here I cannot think of one occasion where he’s ‘lost it’ publicly. He is measured and comes across as very professional. A marked contrast to his immediate predecessors.

Obviously, being good with the media is great, but it’s what happens on the pitch that really counts. Hopefully, success for us and him.

Cracking article.

Although I thought I'd go rubbernecking in the comments and found this gem.

"Ha ha ITFC have found their level and will forever be in the shadow of their more successful neighbours Norwich City. Enjoy the moment whilst it lasts, back to mid-table obscurity by November as per usual."

What a man. Just really hope we can keep hold of him ... which will start with promotion.

Poll: We’ve got super KM, he knows exactly what we need. Woolfie at the back…

I think we have to take the November comment on the chin (although the months of our demises have varied). This year will be different, however. I have little doubt of that.

These next games will show whether my considered optimism is well grounded. We can't keep drawing against the better teams and blaming bad luck. But I don't think we're gonna have to.

COYB.

His interviews are (and no blue tinted glasses) simply brilliantly refreshing.

He explains what he did, why he did it, adds a little bit of technical insight but nothing too much.

There's no meaningless soundbites or quotes, everything he does is for a reason.

You can really buy into him.

He's the calmest man in the stadium every week. Agreed, class act.

That's great and all, but where was the mention of us planning on winning the Champions League, supplying half of the England squad and McKenna signing a 20 year contract. We gave Shambert a 5 year one ffs.

Lack of ambition, McKenna out.

I suspect we can’t. At some point someone large will come knocking and it won’t be long if he carries on like this. The positive when he goes is that we now have a club management structure that works. They found McK and I’d be optimistic about them finding a good replacement. We’re miles away from the tragic Evans years already.

Poll: Do you think Pert is key to all of this?

Good to know TWTD likes the Daily Mail now.

In the spirit of reconciliation and happiness at the end of the Banter Era (RIP) and as a result of promotion I have cleared out my ignore list. Look forwards to reading your posts!
Poll: With Evans taking 65% in Huddersfield, is the Banter Era over?

.......but he hasn't actually achieved anything yet, still relatively unproven.
