Comment | Jewell Apologises for Worst Defeat in Management
at 09:16:28
We need a consistent formation (how about, I don't know, a generic 4-4-2 ?!?), another centre back to partner Iva when fit, a new RB to save Edwards the embarrassment of having to play out of position every week, a creative midfielder (bullard) and an engine room midfielder (i'd actually consider putting a bid in for Norris to try and get him back, regardless of the embarrassment). The rest of the team is good enough to push for promotion, but the inevitable low confidence will be the biggest hurdle now.
Sort it out Jewell. |

Comment | West Brom in Fülöp Talks
at 11:21:54
Really against this proposed move.
Fulop demonstrated on countless occasions last season that he can cut the mustard in this division, his shop stopping being a particular highlight. Whilst I will concede that his distribution is at times woeful, during the 2010 season Fulop was responsible for ensuring that a good deal of our (many) drawn games weren't defeats and consequently probably kept us in the Championship.
Also, very unsure about Stockdale on two counts. Firstly, the 24 hour release clause is deeply concerning- Bergovic anyone?! Secondly, judging by Stockdale's performances during his loan spell at Plymouth in 2010, (where most Pilgrims fans agree he was about as tight as a rusty colander) i'd be wary of declaring him to be the messiah just yet.
Most terrifyingly of all, what this situation could land us with is:- no Fulop, no Stockdale and only ALB between the sticks. In short, I quite genuinely rate him as the worst player in Ipswich's recent history (unfortunately there has been stiff competition as a result of Mr's Keane's ineptitudes.) ALB's positioning in the goal is so worrisome I genuinely wonder whether he's suffering from concussion. The thought of him facing down this coming season's Leicester strike force fills me with dread. I could genuinely see Vassell (and Yakubu if they can get him back) putting 6 past us with ALB in goal.
The club's love affair with Richard Wright must end also. As much we fans can salute his past achievements he is now an utterly spent force, going from prodigy, to journeyman, to serially unemployed in a decade. His wage demands are also unrealistically large.
Conclusion, Kepp Fulop and let him and Stockdale battle it out for the No.1 Jersey, a healthy competition for places can only improve their performances.
I have negative views on Priskin leaving too, but I won't bore you all anymore as I am conscious that this rant is getting very long... |

Enough is enough. I've tried to avoid jumping on the "Keane-Out" brigade for months now but the results simply aren't coming. Roy, thanks for your time- now kindly leave. |

I'm so glad we have Rory Fallon, the well known adviser and psychic, as a consort in these troubled times. |

Can't believe the negativity surrounding this draw. This is an excellent chance to advance to the quarter finals of a major (sort of) competition. Get behind the boys and there's plenty of time for premiership teams in the quarters and, dare i say, beyond?

Comment | Keane: Win But We Didn\'t Play Well
at 09:33:19
Great start to the season. The midfield section of Leadbitter, Norris and Hyam is the difference this year. Just got to hope they all stay fit. Priskin and Scotland looked good too, but where does Wickham fit back in? Still not sure I like Peters as a right-back, but I guess time will tell.

Comment | Walters Set for Stoke Switch
at 22:04:22
3 Million is ludicrous money for a player who has just had two fairly average seasons at a fairly average championship club (if that). Given that, ME and Co should bite Stoke's hand off. However, this revolving door policy at PR is hugely concerning and I really wonder where the replacements are? The Chopra/Fulop sagas rumbles on but in reality for the 5 or 6 players we have let go we have essentially only taken on Mark Kennedy? It this good business. I think not. |
