Ok guys, going away from the normal who you prefer to be Ipswich Manager, who would be you ultimate nightmare out of some of the names mentioned? You can choose more than 1 option (Hopefully)!
Megson is the major No for me, and would hate to see him in our dugout. Others that I wouldn't be enthralled about but could get myself behind them at a push are: Shearer Curbishley McCarthy Southgate Terry Butcher (Not sure how I feel on Butcher) Plus a few others but I don't think we would be seriously considering too many more
Wouldn't want:- Any ex Town player McCarthy Megson Bryan Gunn Glen Roeder Strachan Would quite like an up and coming foreign manager we know jack about!
Something i glad to see is that nobody has mentioned the likes of Dalgleish, Souness, Phil Brown and other similar managers as they would be a nightmare!!
Do not want to see....... JWM............Changes his mind too often Spanish.......Too angry after a loss Hampy........Thinks Shearer is a good idea, nuff said TB..............Sits on fence for too long PTC............There's only fifteen minutes to talk at half time, I don't think that's long enough Jonah.........Uses big words that the common footballer will probably not understand Cider..........Always drunk, but probably functions better that way Would like to see Supers......He knows more about ITFC than the rest of us put together P.S. Please don't take offence I'm only 'avin a laugh
With ME/Cleggyâs track record and general reputation in these things (I.E., clueless about football â rather unfortunate in the circumstances) Iâve previously mentioned that their next appointment might be of the Gordon Strachan/Alan Shearer variety. I hope that the recent Shearer speculation is merely that he was on holiday in one of the many locations where an ME Group subsidiary company has an office of some kind (pretty much everywhere as far as I can see), or heâs just yet another golf playing pal (perhaps I should have taken up golf). Iâd fret about Terry Butcher as well â seems to have been doing ok in Scotland but before that was a disaster with various clubs down here. Iâve noticed that Tisdale and Robinson have been coming down in the betting. Any rumours about those two???
just had a quick look at oddschecker. there is only 1 company now taking bets on the next manager & they make Mick McCarthy a 4/7 shot. Next is Curbishley at 7/2, then Butcher at 7/1, Burley at 8/1 & Shearer at 12/1 With most companies having suspended the market - makes me think something may be about to happen
Another name has appeared (as 3rd favourite) for job - Frank Yallop Former player who went off to mange in the states - not sure what he knows about the English game these days
Changed my mind, any of the people I listed in my last post are welcome as ITFC manager, ain't none of 'em could do worse.
Why wouldn't some of you want Curbishley? Did a fantastic job with Charlton and was doing well with West Ham til he left.
