    Something happening behind the scenes was my first thought. They've gone to **** in the last month.

    Agreed mate. It depends on what criteria and perameters they're using, but the Ipswich squad seems massively over valued compared to their league positions and performances since coming down. Other than bright starts to both seasons, they've not really pulled up trees as they tend to gradually fall away.

    Absolutely. They've got to play Portsmouth, Lincoln and Charlton still. If they're going to be a threat for promotion they'll have to take points off them. That's not a bad thing for us.

    Can't see them not making the playoffs now. Going to get mighty competitive. Need to just focus on winning our own matches frankly

    As an aside - this could be good news for us if Ipswich don't go up.

    They're about to get money behind them due to the takeover, and Paul Cook loves Grigg. If they stay in League 1 it would be a natural fit for him to go there.

    Think they will make the play offs now tbh. They have a good squad, just needed a good manager.

    Good appointnent by Ipswich. His teams play good football. Be interesting to see if they can push on this season or not but you would imagine they will be well setup for next season if still in L1.

    Wanted him rather than Lee Johnson. Good manager. Will be favourites to go up next season if they don’t this one.
