Bogle to Ipswich apparently. Let's hope that stops one ridiculous rumour!!


I hope not, the buggers following me!  I'll have to move

Mind you Hurst is definitely in for Kayden Jackson, Toto and Nolan, one more ex Mariner and I can start watching the Tractor Boys as they'll be Town reserves

Incidentally eight pages dedicated to Ipswich Town in this mornings local rag, seven of them 100% Hurst, they're even giving away free Hurst masks at the first game tomorrow, there isn't one cupping his ear unfortunately. The local wurzels will have to wait a while, get on his back and then they'll see him in a different light unless of course he leaves them for a better offer.

I seem to remember Angol was a real handful when he came on against us last season (in the home game).

Scored 3 against us in 2 games last year, but we were really shite at the time so that's probably equivalent to just 1 goal against a decent team!

Oh, and we most certainly wouldn't be paying £300k for him. That's just ludicrous.

Let me tell you what I have heard,

My source is very close to the club ( he lives in Harrington St )

The big signing is 6ft 9in striker who has played 110 games in the Ugandan Premier league scoring twice,

The hold up is getting International  clearance not just for him but for his mother too,

She is coming as part of the package as he does not want to leave his mam,

She has been offered the job of kit person as she is very good at washing and ironing,

He is 30 years old and only took up football at the late age of 27 when he realised there was a lot of money to be made from playing the game.

He loves Grimsby because he has lived on a diet of dried fish sold for £2 a block (10lbs ) shipped in from Youngs Seafood.

You might not believe a word of this and I do not blame you but it will happen because Bentley told me it would.

Let's get real, Omar a pipe dream due to finances, Angol never worth their valuation of 300k, half of that may be worth a punt.
Probably an unknown like Hearn, Lump etc who will come on in leaps and bounds with us

Was Lump really an unknown when he'd played a few hundred games at a higher level before he joined us?

How anybody can seriously think that Town would be ABLE to spend £300K never mind someone from Mansfield reserves. Where on Earth would this money be coming from. We couldn't scrape £300K up even if we sold our full squad

Angol has scored more goals in his career than the rest of our strikers put together. Think he’d be a decent signing, but the money would probably make it unlikely, not that Town would be paying 6 figures for anyone.
