*~*~* Ipswich v Sunderland match thread *~*~*

You can’t blame the manager for a poor substitution if the player can’t hit the target from 14 yards.

Scores a goal, it’s an excellent substitution, not that this board would have recognised that fact.
It’s not the fact he brought on Adil.

It’s the fact he’s taken BA off who was one of our best players today.

Then it’s the fact he takes off Pritchard,

It’s the fact he doesn’t bring on a striker until 83 minutes.

It’s the fact he brings on f***ing Burstow who I don’t think touched the ball,

It’s the fact that Bellingham played f***ing 89 minutes - he’s shouldn’t be in the first team at the minute never mind playing as a striker.

That’s what the manager is getting blamed for and rightly so - he’s clueless we have regressed massively.

When Clarke goes we will be lucky to score another goal,

I can’t see how Beale was responsible for that, unless he said, ‘hey, lads, make sure to miss any sitters and give away soft goals’.
He will have a key role to play in keeping the players’ spirits up, but the main story is about recruitment.
Anyone got a shovel for this poor lad who’s shoulder deep in sand ? (From the head)
 
Same shit different manager. Honestly what was the point in getting rid of Mowbray and have us watch the same shit with a different manager. We’re much quicker going backwards than we are going forwards
Because Mowbray told him to his face he’s had enough you do better he was sick of the inquests after games why did you do this why did you do that,0k you do better and that was it after the Millwall game
 
Hes just a stab in the dark manager tbf.
Yes, I think that’s true.

Mental that they got rid of Mowbray without a replacement lined up.

They then scrabbled around and ended up with Beale. I don’t blame him for taking the job on tbh - it’s those in charge of the football side at the club who have questions to answer.

Well run clubs have the replacement lined up before the current man goes whenever possible. We never, ever, do.

Your right..that's how thick some are on here.

Ba off though, nah having his best game by all accounts
 
What a waste of time this appointment is.

Speakman needs to take a big dose of humility, peddle Beale, show ambition in bringing in a manager with pedigree and give them scope to bring in their own back room staff and involve them more in the transfers, even if they get a shortlist rather than their own say.

Sacking TM was the right decision at the time only based on the premise we were going to show some ambition in the next appointment. But this is just ridiculous
KLD needs to give him the ££££ to do that.

Hope Beale has the bottle to hold his hands up and own his mistakes.
If he throws Adil under the bus or mentions individual mistakes he can fuck off.
He's a right buzz kill Beale like. Trying to give him the benefit of the doubt and allow him time but is he actually watching the match and making decisions based on what's happening or what? He and we have to be better than this man. Ipswich were full of desire, weren't better than us but they absolutely wanted it more.
