Do you think Clarke would want to come back? Imagine being headhunted away from your current job, increase in wages, saying your goodbyes, party, slice of cake, balloons etc, only to find after a few months you were in fact not even needed, sitting around doing next to nowt. Your employer calls you in saying that they have made a mistake but been in contact with your former employers and being told they are willing to take you back. You would feel a right ****ing nob!

Ha well I've personally done similar in my own career. Obviously not in any way relatable. But I moved companies and hated it and went back 6 months later. Didn't feel a knob at all myself, in fact I was excited to be back amongst my mates "enjoying" work again

Unless it was his idea of course ...

... surely you can't think it didn't cross his mind.

I've done that with almost every job I've had <laugh>

I would echo the suggestion that its going to be hard for ANY player coming in, that isn't a starter, to make an impact. But we were never likely to bring in a new starting striker ahead of Isidor. There just isn't the budget for that and frankly January isn't the time to be splashing out loads of money on a mian striker.

Realistically whoever comes in as this additional striker only needs to score a couple of important goals to get us points to have made the impact we needed.

Our promotion fight will come down to the 2-2s versus Plymouth, the 0-0s versus Burnley etc. A Danns goal in either of those would have made him worth it alone.

This.

One single last minute deflected tap in that gains us 2 points could be worth in excess of £200million.

Danns is good backup really and will likely bag a few. We can't be like last year's Man City with Alvarez on the bench in case our £100m striker doesn't bag 3 goals a game.

I dunno. I've seen plenty of people leave jobs for a bright new future, only to realise that the grass isn't greener. They quickly ask their old boss if they can come back and end up slotting back into their old team without a hitch - usually with a payrise in their pockets. He's inside his 6 month probation period after all!

Cant relate to it either. I've had the one and only job for 27 years. :emoticon-0101-sadsm

If Jacky were to come back, surely he wouldn’t want to go back to Suffolk at the end of the season.

I don’t think he will (but believe he could), would we want him to be brought back for good if we went up?

Disaster at Ipswich but would it be different if he slid into the league ‘at home’.

I honesty think if he’d hit the PL with us it’s a different Jacky.

But then, Mundle genuinely does have a higher ceiling and better balance to both feet.

One thing is certain, Jacky would have an impact. Mundle is nearly fit but he’s gonna take 4-5 games minimum to get back on full steam. That’s a big chunk of what’s left of our promotion season.

From what people have said about Mundle's injury, we need to treat his return with proper kid gloves and not rush anything.

Clarke back would allow him as much time as he needs to get up to speed.

Id have him back in a heartbeat

Yeah, we don’t wanna rush him back and he’s gone for season, with no cover.

Edwards signed for Burnley. £8million obligation to buy is a steal.

That’s annoyed the **** out of me, in hopes on Parker stopping him playing his game.

If Danns isn't ready for the Championship, then presumably other Liverpool loanees such as Doak, Koumas etc aren't either?

Will be a good signing to push the 2 we have and give us something extra.

I don't want to sound a pessimist (but I am)... but I think we need to be really sensible with these players. Because our season is probably most likely to come down to 3 games in May. We need the likes of Mundle firing and on form then.
