I think you’ll find your opening sentence is untrue ….

Still waiting for the detail on that one.

 

Would be interesting to see the facts that back that particular claim up.

mr chansiri gave our manager far more cash than ipswich,its just ipswich  got themselves a top manager who has great contacts ,especially with man utd,so thats our owners fault? thats what i have said in the past get a good manager with great contacts ,that gets your team top loan players,but remember we are weeks behind other teams and it will take several months to get us on a level footing,replacing older players is needed as well

Ipswich got taken over by a US investment company and had a cash injection of 200M bud, thats around the figure DC has spaffed away during his entire 8 years at this club, which these days, if you look at the accounts runs off season ticket, merchandise and tv money, DC invests very little.

Ipswich wont need to invest as heavily this season because, via planned well thought out recruitment, they put together a decent young squad last season capable of not just getting promoted but of being competitive in the championship, ala sunderland the season before (youngest squad in the championship last season) and Plymouth, Where as we built a side with a single aim of getting promoted and now we are having to assemble a side quickly because weve chucked it together at the last minute and changed manager, so lost any impetus, any fees we pay for players will be minimal, such as Wilkes for 70K, we dont pay millions any more kid because the owners spent it covering up his mistakes, and has even had to take out loans to cover the shortfalls, its mostly free transfers.

Mckenna wasn't a top manager, infact bud this is his FIRST managerial appointment, he and Michael Carrick were coaches at OT, Mckenna did spend some time as an assistant during JMs time as manager but never in charge of 1st team  affairs. But he was a well respected coach, hes been backed though by solid recruitment and the tractors haven't been shy to fork a few quid out, Broadhead and Hirst were both 1.5M fees and Davies the flying LB cost around 1M from Leeds academy, when was the last time we spent a million quid on a player pal?

And to cap it off, pay on the gate today for non members is £50, hardly encouraging walk ups are we bud

All that you say is spot on correct. Sadly I think you and many others are wasting time trying to educate mr Bassett who doesn’t answer any reasonable questions and steadfastly refuses to provide support for any of the “facts” which he constantly pedals on here. Frankly I can only assume he is in the pay of mr chancer or maybe he’s taking everyone for a ride and he’s the forums clickbait king? Who knows but I can guarantee he won’t be there today waving his “ I luv you mr chancer” banner. I give up

[rogets]

Two newly promoted sides, two sides full of fire and determination, only one result

 

Expect a 0 - 0 draw with a couple of half hearted attempts from the away team

[iansheff]

Well here is hoping for a win and get 3 points, today's line up against the tractor boys.

 

[Al Bundy]

Another wholesale change at the back.

 

Ipswich will win this.

 

1-3

i said they got a top manager ,i did not say he had been a top manager elsewhere,he was well chosen and got great contacts which helps,but as you seem to know all the answers ,tell us who will buy us as then? while ever we carry on this hate campaign against mr chansiri it will put buyers off ,lets hope we can  sort our selves out ,get together and then he may sell or get more investment,but while ever theres this fans hatred  it does not help,
