The thing is, new signings or lack of will be dictated by just how excited players are at joining Ipswich in League one, with a manager who hasn't got his main coach. Who threw a whole team under the bus. And sadly, a bunch of seasoned pros aren't quite going to be as excited about the idea of Paul Cook as Ipswich manager as we are.
They have options. Any decent player whose contract is up in the current climate is going to have their pick of clubs at a certain level. We just don't have the 'draw' some people seem to think we do.
Cooks approach only works if he can sign the players he wants. First two he's gone for, it appears, have turned him down flat. Let's hope he can do better.

I reckon I could do a job at CM.

Think we need to be realistic and prepare ourselves for this "recruit like a Championship club" idea not to work too well. It's going to be incremental. Look at Man City (no i'm not comparing us to them). When they got mega money they didn't go out and buy the world's best players. They started off buying very good players then when they were at the next level they upgraded. Some of the names people are throwing out there are ridiculous.
We should be aiming to sign the cream of league one to go up. Preferably younger players who might step up. Then if we go up we can see who we can upgrade. |  |

I think it's pretty clear Bradley didn't 'turn him down flat'. According to Phil and Stuart he was virtually in the door. This could all be a bit of late posturing to see what more he can get from either side. |  | | |

I appreciate people who say plenty of time.
But.. the more players we appear to miss out on even if they arent even true the more worried fans will get
This will impact peoples views on PC which let's be honest is very mixed across fans
The one thing I will say whilst I appreciate a manager pics his own management team
Phil has mentioned no assistant. Potentially no new GK coach.. and then we see an influx of players rejecting town... good news is needed and fast tbh. | |

Or fans could stop blubbing/flouncing and wait to see what we look like come the end of June when pre-season starts. | | | |

That wont happen. That's no how it works
PC has made his bed. Hes come out told everyone they can go. Fans are worried. I appreciate their concerns. And we have been here before... I trust it will end well.
But... we as fans need some good news. Since the take over we havent had 1 bit of good news. | |

Technically its 2... but as I did say we wont know which ones were actually real or not.

I'm talking in general. We have been linked with alot of players already. There will no doubt be 2 or 3 more very soon of players apparently turning us down etc..
A bit of news in between that would go along way. | |

You keep saying you fully trust PC, but you keep having these mini meltdowns. | |

But it's you seeing it as a meltdown. I didnt start the thread I just replied to it. I'm not personally fussed as I think our business will be done in bulk mid june like Paul's previous jobs.
But I'm well aware of peoples needs to see movement especially as we will soon start to see where our current squad move onto. That's not me having a meltdown just appreciation some peoples needs for some positive action. | |

It's very much on them though if they 'need positive action' this second to stop them losing their minds. The reality is whether they come in tomorrow or in 3 weeks time is of little relevance as long as we have the bulk of our business done when pre-season starts. | | | |

there's also little in the way of proof we actually got anywhere near offering terms.

Having two extreme positions doesn't equal a balanced view, it's not cumulative.
Everyone needs to relax. It's May.
