Linkboy13 added 14:27 - Mar 2 The hole seasons been a balls up. Really looking forward to football on a level playing field in the championship. Some of the staff at Portman road are just not Premier league savvy and that's not just the players the main problem area being recruitment. Put Keiran McKenna in charge of say Brentford with better players at his disposal he would do well.
