Ashton hopeful new signings very soon 10:33 - Jun 24 with 4624 viewsitfc_tom

Spoke on BBC Radio Suffolk this morning.

Not sure how to copy and paste link but it’s from 3hrs 12 in on the Mark Murphy breakfast show. Nothing ground breaking but some might want a listen.

Thanks for the post/link. I’m sure I’m paraphrasing someone famous but - he’s going to say that, isn’t he?

Agreed, like I posted in the OP nothing groundbreaking.

Saw on Twitter he was on the show so thought I’d have a listen and highlight for others.

I’m sure Phil / EADT will do a little write up at some point.

Thanks mate, just had a listen. I do enjoy listening to Mark Ashton. Very assured guy that comes across very well. Hopefully that calms some of the fans down

Encouraging regarding him being 'very hopeful' on some signings soon too as no doubt he would be trying to manage expectations when live on the radio

As others have said previously it will be this time next week when ins and outs start moving. Players contracts run until the end of June.

Players will want to be in for pre season I think so yeah those with options (say Wyke) will presumably choose in the next week or so.

Not nothing unusual, pretty generic answers to some very generic questions.

Looking forward to seeing Portman Road full
Making it a fortress
Picked out a couple of fixtures with Wigan and Charlton in the run in
Expect the team to be at the top of the division
Team may take a little time to gel

That team of 11 he has so far wont be top of any division, near bottom I would say. We need a brute of a centre half, a left back. A creative midfielder and at least 2 strikers, because you cant rely on Norwood,fitness wise or clowning around. I really hope Ashton and the Cookie monster know what they are doing,because Cook has lost all his credit and will be gone by Xmas if things dont go to Gamechangers plans.

I don't see letting 18 players go plus a more potentially is a sign that PC has lost his credit with the CEO and the new owners. If anything it's a sign of complete belief in what PC wants to do.

Weird post.

That 11 is better than any 11 last season, but its just 11, which is the problem - not who it is.

And also talking about Cook being gone by Christmas before a season has started.

Nothing like a little positivity in the morning is there?
Cheer up ffs.
Yes, we do need a few more players, and they may well be on the way soon.
Consider this though, would you have preferred another season with Evans and Lambert?

Cook won't be gone by Christmas and neither should he be. This is a PROJECT, not a bodge job that has to be done overnight.

That 11 isnt any better. Most couldnt cut it last season. Holy, Toto,Wolfy, Nolan etc were all pretty dire in their own ways last season. They were just as bad as Jackson, Bishop,Dobra. Norwood cant/wont stay fit. The team we have so far isnt up to it, we need at least 6 players in at a minimum. Cook hasnt a lot of credit left with fans after the end of last season,it was appalling how we finished. If he doesnt get it right from the off, I think it will turn pretty quick.

I claim my prize for correctly identifying you as Private Fraser.

Where is your evidence that Cook "hasn't got alot of credit with the fans"? He identified that the squad was not going to get us where we should be going and is working within the new structure to put that right.
