I think for the only time in my life I will say we should take a leaf out of Leeds' book and look to how they dealt with Gnonto when he felt "unable to play" two years ago. Until our price is met he is an Ipswich player and should fulfil all the duties that encompasses. |

Thread | Resigned Paige Peake
at 16:08 14 Jul 2025
First womens signing of the season is bringing back Paige Peake, who left for tier 2 football a couple of years back. Wonder if this might be a trend and we see attempts to resign players like Lafayette amongst others. |

Reply | Introduction of VAR has lowered the quality of refereeing.

Weirdly they tried to model it on cricket, which is completely the wrong sport to use. Umpires call is used because there is fundamental uncertainty in hawkeye, trying to apply that with "clear and obvious" doesn't work as you are just adding another degree oglf subjectivity. Should be like rugby, where the TMO is re refereeing the game, but can only suggest to the ref to bring play back 30 seconds after the offence has occurred, or when the ref actively asks for intervention, but even then the ref has to give their initial call. |

If we win 6 of 8 we finish on 38! But to take it to the last day, it means 5 wins from 7, so likely need to be flawless against Wolves, Everton, Leicester and Brentofrd, whilst picking up a win from Chelsea, Arsenal and Newcastle. That could set us up for the final day at West Ham if they struggle against everyone bar Southampton. |

Sue Smith, really good pubdit as well. Despite being an Everton fan was very strong on that it was wrong for VAR to overturn our penalty against them. Thought it was probably a penalty, but certainly wasn't a clear and obvious error. |

Am I correct in thinking we still don't own the land underneath the stadium, so we couldn't sell it for redevelopment either, which is generally how these get funded. |

Most of the players we signed in the summer have either Championship or even WSL experience. Tbh only game we haven't won was one if those slightly ridiculous ones where we were incredibly dominant and somehow drew. Think we will win the league at a canter most likely, already played and beat a couple of the teams we need to. |

Agree that is eliminating housing costs. That I think for most people would double if not triple their disposable income a month, and would feel life changing in terms of standard of living. |

Agree with this tbh - O'Shea and to a lesser extent Johnson feel like the most superfluous of the summer signings - O'Shea has pace but otherwise doesn't feel like an improvement, and his passing is definitely worse.
Johnson doesn't look to be getting in ahead of Tuanzebe and doesn't look as good as Clarke does for games where we might want a more attacking RB. All other signings feel like clear improvements or places where we really needed additional depth. |

It got pretty far down the priority list last season, and that was at the weekend, think it will comfortably make 10+ |

His only vague success was at Derby, when Liam Rosenior was his assistant. Think its fairly clear who actually did most of the managing in that set up. |

Very potentially, could give us the room to go all out on Skipp? Tbh it's why I don't hugely buy the O'Shea link, it feels too low down the priority list to commit significant resource to it.
I did get the impression Mckenna wasn't too happy with Wolf at the back end of the season - had Edmundson not injured himself I think he would have finished the season, that didn't feel like a horses for courses change. But still feels low priority. |

Yeah, definitely gotten some things correct previously. Feels like this is walking away from Smodzics as the utility forward, leaves room for 1-2 big signings at left 10 and striker if desired. Really then need to focus on 1 if not 2 CMs |

Got to be honest, never been that impressed with him and has really struggled when playing against Premier League opposition in the past. Would prefer Sarimento or Smodzic, especially if we are looking at £18 million. |

Shaw was good, Walker directly at fault for both of Spains goals by trying to mark the same player Stones already had covered. [Post edited 14 Jul 2024 22:08]
