Comment | McGoldrick: I Was Open to Staying at Town But Hurst Said No
by Dissboyitfc at 07:26:39
If Dids had wanted to go to Leicester MM would have let him go, MM had said when sold Murphy that he would not stand in a players way if he wanted out.
The truth is Dids left in May and Hurst started in June, its not rocket science, he could not find a club and Hurst didnt fancy resigning him, which when you consider his injury record i dont blame him.
There is lots to blame Evans and Hurst for, this is not one of them. Towards the end he was a sick note on a big wage and was too comfortable, he had come to the end of his time at Portman Road!
One more thing! how many fans would have been happy if we had extended his deal and he was sat on the bench or out injured? i would say no one!
Hindsight is a wonderful thing! and i am not sure had he stayed he would have been the player he is at Sheffield.

Luca Vega was on loan at my local club Lowestoft earlier in the season. Did OK, but didnt look anything special. Ware and Marshall were on loan at Lowestoft last season. Both didnt fairly well. Thought Marshall looked the best of the three. He may have a career at Conference or League 2 level |

This is why ME needs to invest more into the 1st team as ITFC do not have category 1 status we will continue to lose our top talent to Premier League clubs instead :(

Comment | Beattie Statue Design Revealed

Brilliant! Hope The Beat is the accurate height off the ground to when he used to leap for headers. Standing next to it you will get the feeling of teh footballing Colossus that he was. He could head above the crossbar back down!
Sean, you have done an amazing job on Sir Alf and Sir Bobby, we are sure you will get his face spot on like you did with those guys :-)
Fully supporting this. Come on TWTD posters, put your money in!! |

@Dissboyitfc - DM was unhappy at Ipswich after he was denied his Premier League dream when Leicester came in for him. ME has got a track record of allowing senior valuable players run down their contracts and leave the club for nothing and unfortunately, the club has missed out on £millions over the last decade damaging the team's chances as ME has not invested in replacing lost talent and goals. There is overwhelming proof of this mantra when ME sold Waghorn, Garner & Webster last year - he hasn't replaced them has he? Instead he went for the cheaper option and it will now cost the club dearly. I agree that MM did not want to lose McGoldrick but he simply wasn't the same player after the rejected Leicester bid. Just look at DM now - scoring goals and I'd bet he is a much happier footballer living closer to his family. |

Comment | Town Take Up One-Year Option on Kenlock's Contract

At the risk of being controversial, am I the only one who doesn't think he is good enough at Championship level?
Goes to sleep often, positional awareness is often poor and lacks pace. Disappointed at the thought he will be our first choice LB next season. Sorry Myles, prove me wrong please! |

WHY DID HURST SO BLATENTLY LIE ABOUT THIS?? Someone isn't telling the truth.
MacG our best player by a mile but needed to get fit and stay fit, that was the problem.
for me he spent 5 years here and then disappointedly never said goodbye to the fans - This is the first sound bite we have had.
It was indicated to us fans that even if McCarthy would have stayed MacG wasn't going to be offered a new contract as Evans wanted him off the wage bill. |

It’s certainly a dynamic design, and given the skill with which the sculptor has done Sir Alf and Sur Bobby, I’m sure it will look great, but the face reminds me more of Russell Osmsn than Beattie. |

Flores definitely has more chance of making it at arsenal, whilst Ben Knight has pretty much no chance of progressing through the ranks at City, he should of gone to spurs, considering Poch himself literally went to meet his family, me thinks the parents chose the money over class. |

not many and i include myself in this thought it was worth giving Dids a new contract, a big earner who was always injured and didnt really look up for it in his final games and the quote that not much was expected, backs that up!
however, hindsight is a wonderful thing! I disagree with you Mrmorito. i doubt MM wanted dids to leave and if Evans had of sold him, he would of got slaughtered for not backing the club and cashing in on a prized asset, with the benefit of hinsight selling was the right thing to do, but at the time i felt it was a show of support to his manager who would have said to ME he wants to keep him! If MM had said sell him, he would have gone!
I blame hurst for lots of things, but this is not one of them. |

Is Kenlock looked on as being a starter next season?
If he is, and goes on to have a great first 6 months, we leave ourselves open to lose him for nothing in 14 months time.
If he’s looked on as a starter he should have got new 2 yr contract. |
