    Whlst for a while it seemed Stoke used to take most of our players, who were somewhat deemed to be past expiry date, seems that mantle has now been taken over by the Tractors boys, down at Ipswich...

    Last night played Coventry and a decent win, how-ever have a gander at the team, and maybe a few names you remember...


    David Stockdale
    Danny Collins
    Aaron Cresswell
    Ibrahima Sonko
    Lee Bowyer
    Jimmy Bullard
    Keith Andrews
    Carlos Edwards
    Grant Leadbitter
    Michael Chopra
    Jason Scotland
    Substitutes
    Arran Lee-Barrett
    Damien Delaney *
    Jack Ainsley
    Jay Emmanuel-Thomas **
    Daryl Murphy *** ....yep that one....


    And coincidentally Coventry also had two...Roy O Donovan and Joe Murphy.

    In my opinion of what constitutes a cast-off of any club:

    David Stockdale
    Danny Collins - Cast-off
    Aaron Cresswell
    Ibrahima Sonko - Cast-off
    Lee Bowyer - Cast-off
    Jimmy Bullard - Cast-off
    Keith Andrews - Cast-off
    Carlos Edwards - Cast-off
    Grant Leadbitter - Cast-off
    Michael Chopra - Cast-off
    Jason Scotland - Cast-off

    Substitutes

    Arran Lee-Barrett - Cast-off
    Damien Delaney
    Jack Ainsley
    Jay Emmanuel-Thomas
    Daryl Murphy - Cast-off

    Basically, almost their entire first team is made up of players no other clubs really want because they're either ****e or too old. How woeful.

    Most teams buy players who they can believe add something to the team. They're competing for other teams for quality.

    Ipswich have literally bought a team full of players who either no one wants in the top flight (or even the Championship), or who are either too old and past it. They've bought all the players who other teams have essentially been desperate to get rid of.

    Nuggsy. Oh I remember the days of loving him in the championship (They tried to get past Nyron and he said no no no) Club legend basically for all the wrong reasons apart from maybe 10 games in the promotion season.
