Quoted from Ipswin



I'm not sure Hollowy can claim either of the two victories, aided by the all round feelgood factor maybe (which can't last forever) but hardly as a result of his tactics, input to the team selection etc.


Well, it's a massive coincidence then isn't it. The buzz that went around when the rumour started to unravel (about IH) must have been immense around the club. It impacted the supporters massively so god only knows how it felt to have an experienced premier league manager coming into the club as a player. We're not 1 step below the elite anymore, we're 3 divisions below and the gap is massive.

Give the players and the staff the respect they are due



“To put it in gentleman’s terms if you’ve been out for a night and you’re looking for a young lady and you pull one, some weeks they’re good looking and some weeks they’re not the best. Our performance today would have been not the best looking bird but at least we got her in the taxi. She weren’t the best looking lady we ended up taking home but she was very pleasant and very nice, so thanks very much, let’s have a coffee”

Absolutely nothing. I'm just very cautious about us going overboard about Holloway that's all. PR wise he's great (even if he is as mad as a box of frogs) but results and football wise we don't know yet

I was over the moon when we appointed Newell - say no more!



Ahhh, once bitten twice shy!

I like Ipswin's style... come out and be negative about new managers and 90% of the time you can claim to have been correct about the manager not being all that. It can make you look very knowledgeable

Because they all inevitably fall short in the end.

Hopefully this time we can tons of ups until that time comes.

Quoted from Superdan147


Nonsense, He can claim the Mansfield win for sure. Despite only 1 training session there were signs of things he wants to implement. I,e committing men forward when in possession, leaving a man on half way line when defending corners and players in more space to receive the ball. These are things we’ve not been doing until Saturday IMO. Looking forward to more of that Saturday, hopefully with 11 men!


Don't worry. We could be 10 points clear at the top of The Premier League and in the Semi-Finals of The Champions League and 'Swin would still find something to moan about.

He seems to have given the players some confidence, which is a quality we have been saying on here that has been lacking in the squad for some time. That alone can make a world of difference.
