I wouldn’t say you hear a lot of leaks from the club now, that’s one thing that has always been generally good. The flip side of that is there has to be some transparency when things aren’t going so well. Burying heads in the sand isn’t the way to go, but we’ve seen this already this season when they refused Spors to be interviewed by Alfie House, supposedly JS was happy to do it but was told no by someone above him.

Ipswich’s team didn’t change much over the Christmas. Didn’t they win all their games? Just saying
-
That is correct

I’ve forgotten a few times this season that we’ve been playing. Equally I don’t feel that if I switch of the radio or turn off the TV that I’m particularly missing out. They’ve been incredibly predictable for years -
When Rasmus goes things will get better. Sadly, he won’t.

I’m not going to predict a score. I’m going to predict that I’ll forget the game is on because I’ve become that bored and uninspired by the club. -
100% I wasn’t convinced at first but I am even more so now. Will Still always said he preferred four at the back and yet never did, even when we signed the players. Now Tonda Eckhart is wedded to this same thing but with more sideways passing.

End of the season

This entirely. Unfortunately you can’t cure people of stupidity or being cocky etc
-
It’s not difficult to build a squad, shifting players on I get is different but they’ve wasted a lot of time and money
-
Agreed! One thing I do recall is when the game was crying out for pace and a change he waiting until the last ten minutes, by which point the game tempo had generally died off (if we were chasing the game).

I’d love to know who the “one” is that voted yes. 😂

Sport Republic strike me as people that want to be clever and do things on the cheap. They could be safe but no they’d rather follow data and statistics rather than good old fashioned scouting of watching a player. Data means fuck all if a players heart isn’t in it. They tried to build something two years ago and arguably did very well under Wilcox and Martin, JW then left and recruitment was cheap and tatty that summer. It has been a colossal catalogue of errors ever since. It is beyond shameful.
-
Because Sports Republic haven’t done that in seven attempts. That’s probably the fair answer 😂

So if you had to choose between Russell Martin and Tonda Eckhart right now you’d pick the latter? I find that incredible. I’m not a RM fan by any means but I’d take a manager that’s got us promotion over one that’s managed a handful of games. You could argue that Tonda is being too “proud” of his tried and tested hybrid 3-4-3 defensive tactic and is too naive or stubborn to change. Ag least with RM teams they kept going right the way to the end, we’d actually set up to win.

I would love to be a fly on the wall at their board meetings. What the fuck happens? What do they discuss?
-
And between Tonda Eckhart and Russell Martin?
-
BINGO - the 3rd one
-
Yep, he thought it wasn’t a bad game.
-
I’d take Russell Martin back in a heartbeat. Beggars can’t be choosers, at least you know what we’ll get with him.
-
This is probably the firmest no I’ve seen in any poll in recent years
-
He’ll give the same shit he gave last time, and the time before that, and the time before that.
-
Russell Martin was brilliant compared to this guy. Yea it was dull at times but you knew we’d control the game, create chances and have players that would have a go until the end.
-
Get Rasmus out. Get Tonda out.
-
If this was Spors appointment then that’s two in seven months that are awful
