Feedthewolf 5,885 Posted July 4, 2022 I guess they're one of the bigger clubs in their division, in terms of squad size, budget and average attendance. Which makes it all the more hilarious that they're still floundering around down there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cambridgeshire canary 7,797 Posted July 4, 2022 In terms of the third tier yes, they are pretty big compared to other teams in the divison. Does not help their own self image as seen in the headline though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Worthy Nigelton 1,299 Posted July 4, 2022 Are they a bigger club at that level than we are at Championship level? A few years ago, I'd have said definitely now I'm not sure. Most people expect us to be there or thereabouts every time we're in the Championship. Are Ipswich viewed the same in League One? I'd say not even without my yellow and green glasses on.

A Load of Squit 6,260 Posted July 4, 2022 Mark Robins says it will benefit 'bigger clubs' but doesn't mention 1p5wich specifically. They also claim they have one of the 'best squads', we'll have to wait and see about that one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mason 47 1,921 Posted July 4, 2022 I would argue we've been the much bigger fish since our re-emergence from League One. Big year for them, this. Probably as 'put together' as at any point since they've been down there and McKenna seems fresh enough to get something going. As with the past few managers though, it'll come down to how he does when the going gets tough that'll dictate whether they challenge. Lot of good teams down there, mind.

CANARYKING 707 Posted July 4, 2022 Quote “ The Blues have, without doubt, one of the biggest and best squads in League One “ , shame they finished 11th last season. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Highlight of the piece is a comment that Robinson has given the thumbs up to the decision, c/w a pic of him with his thumb up. That’s proper journalism.
