Time to go Delia 0 Posted April 22, 2009 Hoddles a good manager and would rather have him than any of our last few managers , but dont see it being him as they have just sacked Gorman and he usually goes hand in hand with Hoddle. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
astrodyne 0 Posted April 22, 2009 FFS - Sven at 16/1. How out of touch with Championship football are the bookies? 1600/1 and I might consider a punt - only consider it mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Barry Brockes 147 Posted April 22, 2009 Having seen the new Chief Exec. on Look East they clearly have someone lined up who is expected to sign on the dotted line very shortly. No hanging about there, advertising the job, long-listing, short-listing, sounding out other people, speaking ''off the record'' to the Northern Ireland FA etc. They knew who they wanted and bang they''ve gone and got him. Sounds as though Jimbo''s fate was sealed some time ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Time to go Delia 0 Posted April 22, 2009 Afraid the whole set up there makes us look what we are , a skint lower league outfit with half a squad of poor players. Next season we could be behind Ipswich,Peterboro MK Dons ,Colchester and Southend .Pride of Anglia ? i think not . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xxxx 0 Posted April 22, 2009 Sky Sports News sources understand Roy Keane will be named the new Ipswich Town manager within the next 24 hours. Ipswich sacked Jim Magilton on Wednesday following the club''s failure to make the play-offs in the Championship this season.New chief executive Simon Clegg told Sky Sports News that Town were close to appointing a successor to Magilton at Portman Road.Former Sunderland boss Keane is now understood to be on the brink of accepting a return to management with Ipswich.Keane left his role at the Stadium of Light back in December, having spent just over two years in charge on Wearside.Duringhis time at the Black Cats helm, Keane led Sunderland from the bottomof the Championship to promotion to the Premier League in his firstseason.The Irishman secured a 15th place finish in the topflight last term, but had presided over a disappointing run of formbefore his exit in early December.Glenn Hoddle had beeninstalled as the early favourite to take the Ipswich job, however itnow appears that Keane will attempt to repeat the success he enjoyed atSunderland with Ipswich.
