 | News Comment | McAteer Fee and Personal Terms Agreed at 09:51:27
Initial question if he is that good why is a promotion rival selling him, do they need the money??? Can’t help worrying if this is a panic buy. On the positive side I think McK may be able to build on his potential I have probably pissed off those for and against this signing!!! |
 | News Comment | McKenna: Azón Deal Not Yet Complete at 18:58:34
My worry is the time it takes for all these new arrivals to fully integrate especially if some are not match fit could it be the end of September before KMcK knows his first 11? |
 | News Comment | McKenna: We're Disappointed With How Hutchinson Exit's Been Played Out at 18:50:47
I think the difference in the reaction to the departure of Nathan and OH says it all, I don’t think Omari will get as much first team football this season as he would like but I think over a couple of seasons his skill will shine through. Whether it is he or his agent who is to blame can be debated I think there is enough blame to share but we move on. Town have pocketed well over £45 allowing for some payback to Chelsea let’s hope we use this wisely! |
 | News Comment | McKenna: We'll Review Our Process Around Shootouts at 10:01:26
Agree on the above point re Sami he struggled last season in the premiership so could not see featuring except as an occasional player next season if we are promoted, so while sad to see him leave he deserved the chance to take a more lucrative contract. As for lessons learned one obvious one is not to let Al Hamedi near the penalty spot ever again, assuming he stays!! Think we should all chill out in these sultry August days about McK being out of his depth it is far too early for such speculation |
 | News Comment | McKenna: Hutchinson Didn't Feel That He Could Contribute Today at 09:52:10
The problem is if we let Omari go without getting the fee we deem appropriate what do we do the next time? Against that I can’t see him playing for us anymore, can you imagine the reception he would get next time he lines out at PR?? so let’s rip the plaster off Maybe we should take the €35m and whatever extras we can get and strengthen the squad question marks are beginning to emerge about some of our first 11 - Clarke, Ogbene and Philogene who has picked up a lot of injuries. As for OH he will either linger as sub peeling out 10/15 min sub appearances or will join Brentford and end up back in the championship, good riddance! |
 | News Comment | No Bids For Davis, Town Won't Sell This Window at 19:22:02
Glad to see Lief is staying, after Friday night would like Omari to stay too, we don't need the money. It is a bit late letting him go now as it would be hard to replace him. Perhaps KMcK can work his magic on him and persuade him to stay on the understanding he can go if we are not promoted. Any word on other moves for Hackney I see he played for Boro today. |
 | News Comment | Davies: Two Harsh Decisions at 11:59:56
Agree penalty was harsh but it was a clear handball. Not sure of Davies’ logic re disallowed goal is he saying it can be a foul if the fouler is much smaller than the player he fouls? Anyways the referee blew his whistle so we can’t speculate what Palmer may have done |
 | News Comment | Blues 'Closing in On' Cajuste Return at 14:13:42
I would welcome Jens back especially as it looks increasingly like Hackney is not coming. Like the last two posts I do wonder why other clubs have not signed him, question marks over his fitness Even if he comes I think we still need another midfielder and of course back up for George up front |
 | News Comment | Brentford Make £35m Bid But Fail to Meet Terms Ahead of Release Clause Deadline at 19:21:48
Does the opening paragrah not say it all "The 5pm Omari Hutchinson relegation release clause expired yesterday evening with Brentford having offered the required £35 million fee but not having met the required payment terms" Unlike Delap the ball is now in our court, of course we can sell if the price/payment schedule is right but it is up to the club or have I missed something. An unknown factor is what Omari wants and how he might react if reject a £35m/£40m offer? I think this might depend on who makes the offer, this is where the man management skills of McKenna might come in to play |
 | News Comment | Ipswich Town 0-6 Manchester City - Match Report at 19:51:10
It was interesting at the very end as most of the Town players applauded the North Stand Delap was up chatting with old City colleagues, to be fair he kept trying for Town today but we were just outclassed by a very clinical City team |
 | News Comment | Town's Broja Deal Off at 16:40:57
Agree we dodged a bullet, my sense is if the £30m did arise we would have been cock a hoop because it meant we stayed up! But the wise heads might just wonder if we could have spent the money more wisely! |
 | News Comment | Bialkowski Announces Retirement at 16:35:39
One of our better keepers, his player of the season 3 years in a row says it all! Wishing Bart a long and happy retirement! |
 | News Comment | Town Make Clarke Bid at 10:11:09
Would be a great addition if we can get him! We have to trust Ashton when it comes to managing the fair play rules. |
