Its rumoured Ipswich are in for the Cowley boys,

They would be better off going for Hurst imo.

Maybe a defeat but with over 40,000 there, it's cash in the coffers for the cause!

Atleast they managed to get their team there again. Think of the extra money they'll have next season for the budget.

They’ve just bought houses in Lincoln apparently ?
I think the brothers egos in the end will force a move but I think they realise the higher up you go the more ruthless it becomes and for now will stay put

Haven't bought here but have been looking to buy to save on the commute according to a few itk people on our forums. Doesn't mean they still won't move though of course, but I don't think they will be going to Ipswich.

Probably is but I reckon a club like Ipswich will want a chosen name to take the reigns, maybe an ex player or someone that has more FL experience.  If/when they leave they owe us nothing, hoping we can get a little more time from them first.

Been looking? For nearly 2 years?

Jolley moved here within the month.

The problem with Ipswich is well known - no money. To get a “name” would mean a big investment plus a bigger transfer budget than McCarthy’s. It must have crossed their minds that the Cowleys are relatively local and a manager on the way up is better than one on the way down.

As far as style of play, the Cowleys are bright. They will not clone the Lincoln method but they will use a higher pressure game than Ipswich fans have been used to. The Cowleys would be adaptable. Hurst isn’t. Shrewsbury are playing exactly like Grimsby just with some better players in a league where fewer sides are outright cloggers. Hurst will do OK, he may even get promoted but to win things he would have to be a lot better tactically in selections and during games.



“If all mankind minus one, were of one opinion, and only one person were of the contrary opinion, mankind would be no more justified in silencing that one person, than he, if he had the power, would be justified in silencing mankind.”
