Your thread is interesting you are right nothing has been heard of Pardew as you say Looked on the Ipswich Website and there are a number of stories with Roy Keane involved Perhaps Pardew stories will come out next week

Perhaps Cortese sacked him after all could explain why we have no signings either

Sorry totally disagree we need new players and you would have thought Pardew would have brought some in by now as Derry says we did lose 13. The sooner they come in sooner they gel which was the point being made earlier. So in my opinion you are talking Bollix if there are not some new players by next Wednesday but if there are I will be quite happy and you wont be talking Bollix. If we are to get promotion we need to hit the grounding running as suggested by other posters

Yes of course you could be right we will have to wait and see

Yes I agree with you but if another poster had posted this thread I think we could have discussed the topic without having a go at dear old Alpine Pardew did make a great deal of the fact last season that he missed Bosman Bargains as he did not join SFC until Mid July so I had expectations that we would have had a couple more signings by now

Who knows but another chance to engage with fans missed

I would have thought the details were known sometime ago which would have given fans more time to organise their trip

I think 9 is probably over the top but at least 6 new players I would have thought

So probably some new players befor Wednesday next week

No because we need another half a dozen players to make up the squad it is OK having 11 good players but if the replacements for injury or suspension are crap then problems arise. Look at England when Ferdinand was injured we got Upson playing we need four five new players But I do expect some signings this week

What he is saying and I agree with him is that Pardew was saying because he was late in coming he missed lots of Bosman gems well he has not got any so far this season as Dixon will cost money We have lost Semi Waigio Antonio Thomas James plus others who played from time to time

So what are you suggesting 1 We sell them now or 2 Get in two players in case they leave

Perhaps we are not signing anymore players

Yes I was there although it was tense it was not as tense as the FL cup Semi Final against Leeds when Terry Curran scored Early I thought we beat Plymouth over Easter but I will check when I return from picking my daughter up from the Station

Although it was an important goal it was not as important as the Leyton Orient one. If the Charlton game was 0 0 it was still possible to get promoted by getting two more points but the Leyton Orient goal clinched promotion

He may not like playing for Alan Pardew Wants more money as he has lots loads through bad investments. Who knows there could be many reasons or as you suggest none we will see in time

There is nothing wrong with it but it would be good for fans if the echo had really up to date info others are not glued to the Internet like you and me. You seem to be a well rounded and reasonable person and I doubt you would saidthe things that Cortese has then perhaps AC Milan may not know you. Just feel things could have been handled a little better

Thats a strange response. I just think he has been confrontational on a few occassions which does not put him in a good light.

Lets face it Cortese is a bit strange really often looking for confrontation

Fair enough if that is all you want thats OK. Others may want a club that plays reasonable football and looks after its fans and announces new in a reasonable way so that all fans can be kept up to date by all media outlets

Yes I agree with you about Cole but not Glenn Johnson

That was five years ago he did not perform well enough in the Friendly Internationals otherwise he would have been picked

So how do the other countries cope then?
