Thread | How many players from last season ?
at 08:19 18 Jul 2024
Will start against Liverpool ?
Still more to come in , but I think those saying 4 or 5 will be correct.
Any less than that will hamper our start imo

Thread | And now we actually in the PL
at 09:47 23 Jun 2024
We see the problems every promoted team has in attracting the higher calibre of players.
It is not going to be an easy summer for Ashton or McKenna. I can see our sights slowly lowering to players who will want to come rather than players we need. [Post edited 23 Jun 16:09]

Thread | How do we replace 10 players ?
at 04:58 4 Jun 2024
10 players being released this summer is a fairly big turn around , especially as we are used to topping up the squad over the past 2 years with 4 or 5 players.
There is also the reduced capacity for loans in the Premier league.
Of those 10 players, probably only 3 or 4 played regularly in the squad, but with only 2 loans allowed , the need to bring in at least 8 players on permanent transfers is most certainly there.
How much we are prepared to spend is another matter altogether. With the amount of players we will need , it seems unlikely , but not impossible that we may splash out on a £20 million Hutchinson. That would certainly lower our sights on other targets, with the ground improvements and managers new contract already coming out of the pot. |

Thread | The bottom line

I have never thought KM would go anywhere.
And even if he does, I don't see how supporters can turn on him after what he has achieved.
What I will have a go about, is if this club is not ready for the start of premier league season, because we were dealing with the manager deciding where he wanted to be for weeks on end. |

McKenna was hoping to keep contact with Manchester United under wraps.
Personally, I am glad we know about it. |

Thread | OK we all want to know one way or the other

The only truth any of us know is nothing has been said from the club officially.
The only person at this point who does know what is going on is Kieron himself.
The speculation coming from reporters and journalists is connected to rumours that he would listen to other job offers.
The simple truth is that has to be the case, because even people with alot of extra time on their hands at the end of the football season would not be wasting energy on a story if they knew 100% he wanted to stay at Ipswich.
This in turn would put him very high on bookmakers lists for every feasible job which becomes available.
So we sit and wait to see what happens. I think next 48 hours will see this story come to a complete end one way or another.
My own opinion is still that he will stay where he is, at least for the coming season , and maybe beyond that too. |

Thread | Time to own up

Going into these last 2 games, I think it's time to hold my hands up.
Never at any point did I expect us to end up being promoted from this league this season.
....and yet here we are with 4 days to go, still knocking on the door.
So.... whatever happens in the next 2 games , I will not be calling out ANY player's, no matter their performance.
They are all a credit to this football club. And I am proud to call you Ipswich Town players.
To a man .Well done to each and every one of you.

Avoiding defeat at Coventry.
I really don't think Huddersfield will be able to stop us on Saturday getting 3 points. So Tuesday night is the game of our season imo. |
