BrizzleRed Posted August 31, 2021 Report Share Posted August 31, 2021 This is already starting to look like us all over again while Ashton was here. I know Ipswich didn’t exactly set the division slight last season, but surely they didn’t need this many new signings. MA is increasingly looking like that shopaholic who gets a buzz out of buying new things, but after a short time, they don’t feel new any more and he just wants to go out and buy more. I’m sure their fans are lapping it up, as under Mad Mick, the old owners kept the purse strings very tight. Once the reality sinks in that they are lumbered with a team of misfits, they won’t be so happy. Ok, he could surprise us and actually make more of a go of it with a strong manager in place, but after witnessing the total train wreck he turned our club into, I certainly wouldn’t put any money on it and can only see a few years of pain coming up for ITFC fans.

Mark ashton is interested in mark ashton Absolutely mate. I’ve got nothing against Ipswich and actually think of them as a proper football club. That said, now they’ve got that parasitic slimeball there, I won’t be wishing them any good fortune whatsoever. I put him on a par with agents as the most destructive, self centred scum of the football world. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would have liked to have seen Johnson without Ashton. I suppose we'll only know judging by whether Sunderland fly past us on the way to the Prem, or whether he gets sacked mid season for being off the pace 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect the author didn't actually visit Ipswich. I was a reporter once. It is never your job to call someone an arsehole in your stories. But you can give the reader a hint of their personality in the selection of quotes from that person you run. I did similar with a particular [non-West Country] council leader on many occasions. Except his quotes made him sound like Kim Jong Un rather than David Brent. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Geoff Posted August 31, 2021 Report Share Posted August 31, 2021 Bersant Celina, not a bad signing to be honest. Bombed out, first time round, because he didn't do enough 'donkey work' for Mick Mcarthy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

richyy66 Posted August 31, 2021 Report Share Posted August 31, 2021 New chief executive Mark Ashton has delivered a signing, on average, once every five days since taking charge at the start of June.
