Maresca for Chelsea. A bold move.
Can't see him getting much more of a tune out of them than poch.
Good bet for first sacking?
1.) 04 Jun 2024 03:20:54
Ben
I am hoping 1st sacking in next season EPL is Russell Martin at Southampton.
Marescu will do okish at Chelsea. top 5 or 6 next season.
2.) 04 Jun 2024 05:41:46
I think he will do well too Baz. He seems to thrive with clubs that flout spending rules! ??
Interested to understand why you want Martin biffed first tho? Maresca was the only gaffer that talked twoddle during the season, and I didn’t read anything from the Saints gaffer that would create dislike? Like I say, just interested; I’ve probs forgotten something again! ???.
3.) 04 Jun 2024 07:43:27
Bold prediction baz. First sacking will be Ipswich boss after not winning a game pre Xmas.
4.) 04 Jun 2024 08:42:31
Different league now, not arsed haha.
5.) 04 Jun 2024 10:59:21
Aus . there is more chance of yoh going on a date woth Skippy the Bush Kangaroo than Ipswich ever sacking McKenna even if they were to get relegated
Back to back promotions, a newly signed 4 yeat contract. McKenna is definitely in the top 4 best ever Ipswich managers
Perhaps you need to calm down a tad on your continually erroneous Ipswich predictions Aus ?.
6.) 04 Jun 2024 11:07:08
Brighty.
1) I have a particular dislike of Southampton since 78/ 79 season when their very dirty side unjustly defeated Tony Currie inspired Leeds United in cuo semi
2) As for smug RM . his smugness grew bigger and bigger in dismantling of Daniel Farke and Lèeds United in each of those 3 matches last season.
Want him sacked asap and Southampton relegated this season please.
7.) 04 Jun 2024 11:50:48
Ok Baz, I can understand that now! ??.
8.) 04 Jun 2024 14:06:43
Baz. I guarantee you if Mr Ipswich boss gets his choice of in comings or it’s perceived that way and they are in bottom 3 by Turkey time. He gone.
Happy to wager a baldy hair cut on it.
9.) 04 Jun 2024 16:52:42
No point on a bet Ausmeister because you would do another Bermo and welch on it when you lose ??
Just my Baz guarantee that more chance of you Aus becoming the next Aussie Prime minister
than Ipswich sacking McKenna at any point next season R or not!
Fat and zero chance.
10.) 04 Jun 2024 19:13:07
I just don’t think Southampton will be able to contain premiership teams like they did us. They’ll be the first to concede in matches and will then be up against it. He needs better defenders to stay up.
11.) 04 Jun 2024 19:35:31
Agree with Baz, can’t see Ipswich sacking McKenna regardless next season.
Similar to Luton (overachievers) and Burnley (big name manager) this season, who I can’t imagine considered firing them.
12.) 05 Jun 2024 07:18:42
They’ve tied to him to a four year contract, and made him one of the best paid managers in the country, and are probably, as a business, budgeting on being relegated. Yes, of course they’re going to sack him, if their forecast looks like being accurate, just so that they can put a £6m dent in their own budget! Makes perfect financial sense!
He will only leave if a big club comes in for him, and they pay up the compo that his new contract will oblige others to pay Ipswich to even be allowed to talk to him.
13.) 05 Jun 2024 10:16:03
They’ve given him a new contract and the players he needs to rebuild the team.
Hey ho. They will still be rubbish and staring R in the face from get go. You are deluded if you don’t think they will sack him. Somebody will have to cop the blame.
Question. Who usually cops the blame chaps.
Mark my words as prime minister. He is as good as gone.
14.) 05 Jun 2024 10:19:33
150% spot on logical facts Bright
Aus hasn't got a didgeridoo.
15.) 05 Jun 2024 13:46:47
More juice for the sacking bright.
Tell me Ipswich above bottom 3 at Turkey and he good.
Otherwise gone.
100%.
16.) 05 Jun 2024 15:19:23
Is that the same " Aussie 100% " guarantee that stated Ipswich would drop to mid table last season ???.
14 May 2024 14:05:30
I watched the playoff between mkdons and Crawley the other night. The dons were absolutely hammered. Max Dean and Lewis bate played for mkdons. Dean was lively but bate was very average I cannot see us offering lewis a new contract not really improved any in his time with us.
What really confused me was mkdons with a average gate of just below 10k per week are in a 30k stadium. The ground the other night was shockingly empty.
I know the owners are hoping for the championship or even Prem football, but surely have a stadium that big with little atmosphere is a disadvantage?
I always thought when hull city built a 20k stadium it wouldn't be filled.
It's like the Saudis. You can build as many big stadiums and have big stars to play in them but if there are no fans it is not going to work.
1.) 14 May 2024 14:36:57
Ben
I always liked Max Dean whenever I saw him play
Georgey and I lamented the sale of Max Dean ( another potential Leif Davis )
Aa for Lewis Bate . nope.
2.) 14 May 2024 18:59:24
I’m sure you praised Lewis Bate on several occasions Baz!
3.) 14 May 2024 19:05:57
The club obviously decided Joseph was the better prospect. Can't keep every player who comes through, epsecially when others are better. Move on, pal.
4.) 14 May 2024 20:22:41
Nope OP shock horror you be wrong . Lewis Bate has never impressed one . not that he had many chances in 1st team. but even in U21s he was meh.
5.) 14 May 2024 23:51:48
Yes baz I've never seen anything from bate even 21s gyabi always looked a better prospect.
05 May 2024 18:11:35
Just seen that kal has won the West ham player of the year vote.
With the help of the leeds fans!
Well done kalvin!
1.) 05 May 2024 18:28:44
He received over 60% of the votes ??.
2.) 05 May 2024 18:31:59
Thoroughly deserved ? ?.
3.) 05 May 2024 18:51:18
That’s actually taking the piss out of the lad.
4.) 05 May 2024 20:02:52
He's done more to win that than his treble last season.
5.) 05 May 2024 20:14:46
I think Leeds fans should vote for Luke Ayling at Boro too
Played 19 games
EIGHT assists . eight!
Give Ayling a new contract . his loan move by DF looking foolish ?.
6.) 05 May 2024 20:26:44
You could look at it like that Cork or you could say that all those Leeds fans took time to vote and he still means something to them.
He is still one of our own!
7.) 05 May 2024 20:30:46
Hasn't Luke won the same at Boro?
:-)
8.) 05 May 2024 21:12:46
You wait until it's Citeh's turn. Kal will win that too. ?.
9.) 05 May 2024 21:20:05
Hasn't he just Sheds?
28 Apr 2024 13:41:44
What happened to piroe?
I've been think why has Joel not worked this season at Leeds.
Was it extra pressure? A semi big move to a big club can get into the head of a player. Expectations are higher and the pressure a footballer puts on himself can be greater.
Is it the different system or different role?
Having watched his goals for Swansea there are a lot of him just stood in the box an the ball played to him or arriving in the box late. Maybe our players are just not looking for him in the same way.
Being a big fish in a little pond at Swansea Maybe their forwards looked always to play him in?
Maybe he hasn't integrated into the group very well or is a bit of an outsider.
Or maybe the intensity of playing at a top side means he cannot find the same space as he did.
Anyway it has not worked. I think most of us had him top scorer this year. Will farke persist with him next term or is he destined for a loan etc.
1.) 28 Apr 2024 14:14:00
How about putting DF out on loan next season!
2.) 28 Apr 2024 17:19:28
? Yes and to your neck of the woods.
11 Apr 2024 10:59:14
It is good to see that rapha had a good game and scored a brace for Barcelona.
All the talk since he went to Barcelona is of him been out of favour not fitting in and being sold on.
Every time I've seen him play for Barcelona he has put 100% in as he did for us.
I know he is never going to be the most skilled winger Barcelona have ever had but sheer work rate makes up for it.
1.) 11 Apr 2024 13:20:01
His second goal was class ?.
2.) 11 Apr 2024 14:11:33
Said before. Leaves Barcelona on a free or in a box. Fact.
3.) 11 Apr 2024 16:16:22
How is otva ' fact' Aus when it hasn't happened ( yet)
Your opinion : yes
The p word ( prediction ) ok.
4.) 11 Apr 2024 16:21:02
? Aus. Money ? talks and his agent loves it. Plus Barcelona aren't exactly debt free.
5.) 11 Apr 2024 16:26:31
" Continuous Tippy tappy sideways and back 7 yard passes Farke Ball is quite often a yawn fest and at times very ineffective. AIMO.
Mix it up Farke! Encourage instruct your players Gruev, Amps etc to make KP style 25/ 30/ 35 yard long passes out wide/ over the top etc.
6.) 11 Apr 2024 16:58:03
Just watched raphas second dill. Excellent finish.
7.) 11 Apr 2024 17:00:14
And baz use to call me boring!
Now I am the first to admit …. I was boring
But at least I was insightful and correct?
Fake got points than Belisa this season than when we went up., in a harder leauge … plus we have had at least two games where we’ve been blantedtly cheated costing us 5 extra points
Give it a rest baz or come back when at least like me you are right.
8.) 11 Apr 2024 17:21:41
Is this the ' In Orta We Trust' Berma of 4 days ago .
newsflash Berma
Court of Arbitration CAS have confirmed today thst Leeds United have withdrawn their appeal over the £24.5 million JKA wages award
Well done Orta
Well done Berma .
Not.
9.) 11 Apr 2024 17:36:50
Berma this points Bielsa living rent free in yer noggin is amusing
only thing that is relevant is if Leeds go up this season .
Being 3rd as they are isn't enough
And as for style of football " Farke ball" is certainly less entertaining than Lèeds GREAT managers style of play.
Sorry.
14 Oct 2023 16:15:56
He said we would be looking at loans primarily.
If the loans are as good as jadon, rodon and spence we should be golden.
21 Jul 2024 10:21:01
Agree op on wober. I said when he first went out on loan that I wouldn't mind him back and he was probably the most English football ready of the group.
I never understood all the fist shaking calls of no loyalty at these loan players. Of course they had no loyalty to leeds. They had been with us barely a season. And offered a way out even before they came to Elland Road.
It was the situation at the time made by marshe orta and rads.
If wober wants a second chance and if farke wants him he will be a big plus for our team.
As for mes. I have to agree that he will make a great goal keeper one day but I still need convincing that will be in the English league. I think he still needs to command the box more. Every corner against us he is crowded by the opposition because they know he is not confident in the air. But I must say with a settled and solid back 4 last season he was much more settled and pulled of some amazing saves.
As has been mentioned before all the outgoings this year have not affected the core of last years team. So some decent signings eg. Bogle will only make us stronger.
11 Jul 2024 20:39:10
I agree with above. An OK signing. Bit of guile and experience. Against lesser teams when we don't need two dms a goalscorer from midfield would be nice.
11 Jul 2024 20:34:25
Bobby Kippax next signing just you watc.
09 Jul 2024 14:36:28
Ive not seen much of the 21s since they started charging to watch the matches. There is a lad called Chambers as well.
Some talent coming up.
09 Jul 2024 10:18:26
It would be nice to have a goal scorer in midfield. Cannot rely on rutter. his shooting is wayward at best. Gio needs to find that calmness when shooting instead of trying to take print off the ball every time.
Do you think this debayo from the u21s
Is being lined up for defensive cover for the first team? It seems he has mainly played cb but some lb and rb.
