Mixed feelings on Moore. He has real pedigree and we've lacked someone who can attack crosses for a long time, but it does seem a strange match for Walter's supposedly high-pressing, modern style. Maybe Moore is more mobile and better at pressing than I'm thinking, he did play at Ipswich after all. As with the sacking of Rosenior and the Allsop situation it again gives a slight whiff of Acun listening to the clamour. I really hope it's a Walter target and not just the 'brain team' thinking he's got a good scoring record and nothing else matters. The quoted 3-year deal with him turning 32 next month sounds totally wrong too. I hope that's not true.
Maybe Walter is adapting his style
Realises what you need in This division and going for it
 
If all the ones whinging and panicking are as accurate as the ones doing the same during the Euros, manager doesn’t know what he is doing, team playing the wrong way etc, etc…then we are nailed on for an automatic promotion spot.<laugh>
 
Spoke to an Ipswich supporting mate today about Moore. Here is his response:

‘Loved him. Can be frustrating as he's not the most mobile, but he's a very good footballer. Scored some crucial goals for us tbf’
 
Think the first couple months will be a grim watch. New coach and coaching staff and an almost entirely new squad to gel together. Every day there’s a new rumoured outgoing. McLoughlin is today’s. I hope to be proven wrong and we start the season strong but I can definitely see us at the bottom end of the table by October. I just can’t see us having a cohesive and settled squad by August 10th. It’s a massive ask of Walter.
You need to smoke a joint mate and take a break. Its becoming a genuine concern how negative you have become!
We know absolutely nothing, zip, about what is going on behind the scenes. You cant spend your life worrying about things out of your control, it makes you sick.

Enjoy the ride, we will be signing players and if they're crap we can at least enjoy the best food in the Championship and throw sausages at Tim.

Tbf, that post (below) is a very reasonable, balanced, realistic one at this stage!!
