The fact that he’s started the last 9 suggests they are planning on him being with them next season, which is good news. MA Definitely said there was an option to buy….don’t know obviously if any set terms. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought they had assembled the best squad ever at that level, surely winning the league by a record amount was a forgone conclusion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their forum seems to like him overall, with the views best summed up by one who wanted him saying ‘One week he’s Pirlo. The next week Onslow’.

Pezo Posted May 26, 2022 Report Share Posted May 26, 2022 It's the same old thing he said when he was here, "we look at international markets", "we work hard" ect ect - it's all things fans want to hear. At no point is MA ever going to say I know the fans want me to do X but we're actually going to do Y, here is the reason why everyone else does X and here's why we think that's a worse idea than Y. The guy lacks depth of knowledge - or certainly doesn't show any in interviews. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ipswich fans think he’s the best thing since sliced bread - I doubt they’ll have the same view in 18/12 or 2 years from now. 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
1960maaan Posted May 26, 2022 Report Share Posted May 26, 2022 (edited) I couldn't do it, made it through the first clip with his usual PR shit, where he says this isn't PR shit, but no more. Man it was hard enough listening when he was talking about my team, let alone the Tractor boys (don't Google that BTW ) from over by Norwich. Just tried the link, it looks like it's going to work then disappeared. Mods ? Edited May 26, 2022 by 1960maaan 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Ipswich fans think he’s the best thing since sliced bread - I doubt they’ll have the same view in 18/12 or 2 years from now. The big problem is that he costs clubs a lot of money - both in salary and in some of the clunkers he buys as "punts". There is always the suspicion of the old pocketing of brown envelopes as well. If he was just smarmy and talked a lot of rollocks that wouldn't be so bad. Lots of people in football suffer from verbal diarrhoea. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A perfect fit for Leeds but he would be scrapping for media space with their smarmy, rollocks-talking manager. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
