    Yeah mate, but it isnt completely unknown. This one isnt my pick at all. I think Watson will be a rare talent. However we already have Mundle in the squad. It is pure bottom line profit and gives a lot of headroom now. Watson isnt going to a Chelsea or Man City where he will disappear. Like you say an add on, and we are protected. Hate the idea of him not showing his talent flourish here, but I trust the club ultimately. I could whine a lot about this, but I am going to keep it under wraps. Will love watching him from afar.

    It certainly would. Not sure I like the scenario where he doesn’t help us get up, we stunt Mundle’s progress and basically just prep JC for a championship run for Ipswich in 25/26 mind.

    Hmm. Don’t love that one, mid-season.

    Would be really disappointed if Dodds goes but delighted for him that he’s getting a manager gig again.

    Can’t begrudge Dodds going for a HC role

    Also whilst I’d be disappointed for Dodds to leave and think he’d be a big miss, I also don’t think it would be right for us to stand in his way if he has this opportunity and wants to take it.

    Mind, I can’t see it but if Clarke ends up back here I hope that also comes with a side of him binning of Ian Harte for yet again a terrible idea fed to him that Ipswich was the best place for him.

    TBF, Mundle is going to have to be wrapped in cotton wool for the rest of the season, injury he has had is nasty

    I think only hindsight can be this certain it was a bad move. I personally don’t hold a grudge for Harte getting Clarke the premier league move he wanted. It didn’t work. He can come home.

    I'm being totally selfish in thinking I would have liked to see him develop and flourish with us for a season and although I have no doubt he has been scouted and Brighton think he is going to be a top player on the near future, I just think it's too early and he could afford to play here another season at least!

    I hope he goes and smashes it, the idiots who mock him would soon shut the **** up

    I’m amazed by that tbh. Thought he was miles off that level.

    Yes please, he needs to be playing at a higher standard to show whether he can cut it at us

    wow yes that’s impressive. League one playoff position.

    shows how far we’ve come that he’s frankly a long way off first team picture and he’s going on loan to a team placed where we struggled to hit for 4 years
