Davefevs Posted December 7, 2021 Report Share Posted December 7, 2021 They really do believe everything that comes out of Ashton’s mouth don’t they! Recall “you’d be surprised at some of the names that are interested”, “global search” etc. And can you imagine Jones leaving Luton! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BetterRedthanBlue Posted December 7, 2021 Report Share Posted December 7, 2021 Ah yes Nigel Pearson who is currently working under restrictions because he is undoing the damage a certain someone left behind... I don't see Rooney going to Ipswich either they need to aim a bit lower someone like Simon Weaver from Harrogate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading this thread , and understanding that Ipswich fans might think we are jealous is hilarious though. Well they cannot say we did not warn them. Shame, as I have always had a soft spot for Ipswich and it is sad to see the car crash we all know is coming . Cook will be delighted, he wanted out as soon as he knew the clown was arriving, but only with a cheque in hand. Cook would be great for Preston. I’ve met several. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's everywhere in my place, and for the most part people think it's ridiculous. But impress the right person and that doesn't matter. The sad thing is football seems to be an industry that is impressed by it. Whether it's down to the money involved, or that many of those involved in it are ex-players and therefore haven't been subjected to this nonsense in a traditional sense, I'm not sure. But it's an industry where being a talker seems to get people further than it might do elsewhere. In my opinion at least.

Davefevs Posted December 7, 2021 Report Share Posted December 7, 2021 Sky Sports News - Curtis Davies, Tim Sherwood and Jamie Mackie giving Ipswich a bit of stick. Davies saying there will be disharmony because not all 19 can play.

Why would LJ leave Sunderland unless he was pushed, which is possible but not right now. As for DH, assistant manager at Stoke could be working in the EPL next season.
