That leaves us down, Luongo , Cajuste, Phillips , and Sammy Morsy if he goes . And leaves us with Taylor, from our midfield of last season. I know they didn't exactly set the world alight but we do need more than the returning Humhreys. |

Yes, he had no idea how to run a football club, he didn't invest and oversaw the worst spell in the clubs recent history.
BUT, he did wipe out the clubs debts to make us an attractive investment.
The fact that investment is now going to be cashed in , makes me wonder who and when will our new owners emerge and how much they plan to make out of the club? |

Kieron McKenna has in many ways become Ipswich Town over the past 3 seasons.
We play his way and have done since we were in the first division.
We now have almost all of his own signings, his back room staff , the ground and training facilities have all been improved under his tenure.
Therefore it's hardly surprising after a disastrous season in the Premier league, we still have a majority of supporters in the keep the manager camp.
In many ways the clubs fortunes are linked to his next season. Mckennas reputation as the brightest star on the horizon of young british coaching talent has taken a knock with the nose dive into the championship , it has also undoubtedly persuaded more than a few supporters to start to question his game management , and single minded approach to tactics which at times last season bordered on McCarthy- esque
The plus side is we all know what we will be getting next season and this is often preferable than waiting to see what a new manager will bring to the table.
However, the good will bank of itfc, in which Mckenna has deposited vast sums in two promotion campaigns has been severely drawn upon in the last 6 months or so.
Incoming players will not be bought with the bulging wallet which the Premier league supplies, they will have to settle far quicker into the yawning gaps left by those who have gone or returned to pastures new. The excuses of playing Manchester City at the Etihad on a saturday afternoon are gone. Instead we will be playing teams with less resources than our own , which brings an entirely different kind of pressure as does the short odds on a quick return to the Premier league.
Whether you are Mckenna can or Mckenna can't. The bets have been placed , time to spin the wheel. |

The part of this speculation which does cause concern is why he doesn't come out and say so. |

Remarkable how some as collective Ipswich supporters return to Marcus Evans tenure as owner to cheer themselves up , rather than face the problems of now |

Very difficult to say what the core of the team is anymore. I definitely wouldn't rule out virtually anyone leaving. |

The success of next season depends upon the recruitment to the centre of the team.
Maybe Morsy can continue as lynch pin , although at a lower level of influence than our last season in the championship. Humphreys will be returning and his improvement will need to be assessed. Taylor has convinced very few so far that he has the consistency to hold down a permanent place.
So that leaves us shopping in the midfield department for at least 2 excellent additions who would tip the promotion scales in our favour. |
