I believe Manning had intimated that he was taking some time out of management. I guess things change... |  |

Could potentially decide which way his career goes in the short term. Im not convinced the player he will have their suit the way he appears to want to play so could be a tricky few months for him. I hope he does well though, feels like a good fit for us style wise when McKenna leaves but still much to prove. |  | |  |

No, they've not, although he was on the bench at Brightlingsea on Tuesday. |  | |  |

Maybe not a permanent thing then if they haven’t announced it officially? |  |

I think the plan was that it would be but if Liam M looks to put his MK staff back together then may not be. |  | |  |

Although Pompey is a lot further from Ipswich than MK, and I believe Wright still lives in Ipswich? |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

I was wondering whether that might be a factor in DW's thinking. |  | |  |

I honestly think, when McKenna goes, we'll be thinking bigger than Liam Manning. |  |

The Cowley's have even sacked hope that helps clear that up for you |  |

Chris Hogg has just bought a new place in Ipswich so assume he'd at least have a travel buddy! |  |

If it goes tits up for Manning at Pompey, I could definitely see him having a career as the coach of a Premier League U23 team. |  |

I did wonder whether he'd join back up with the 'City Group' in some capacity ... hence David Wright taking the job here. |  |

Darren Smith, their keeper-coach at MK this season, also presumably lives round here having been at Town and Colchester previously! |  | |  |

With Liam Manning potentially going to Pompey....... on 12:45 - Jan 12 with 1213 views | PioneerBlue | You would have thought ITFC on the way up versus Portsmouth might be part of the consideration for an U23s coach. Working under the McKennaball umbrella might also be interesting for another coach, depends where DW sees his career going. We will see but suppose McG and DW is quite a heavyweight U23s team! |  |
