to be fair to mick mac, he never played 7 defensive players when we were playing teams as bad as us.
 
I'm sure that up until this summer Ipswich hadn't paid cash for a player in nearly 4 years, all academy players, free's or loans and players picked up from the lower levels. He's a good man manager is Mic Mac and has proven time and time again he can build a team with little to no resources at all. However his record at the top level is awful and when he does have cash to spend he don't half waste it, some of the garbage he signed for us and Wolves at Premier League level was a joke.

I dinnar like, we used to play Colin Healy and Jeff Whitely together, and we'd use that great lummox Kevin Kyle to shield the ball in the corners for hours on end. Even when we were getting results we played some horrific football under Mick McCarthy.
 
I met Mick at a player of season do and chatted for over half an hour and was really taken with him typical down to earth Yorkshireman who knew what he was doing. Not really supported but Bob didn’t have the money. Disappointed when Mick went.
 
15 & 19 point season fuck me man
Exactly - the 15 point season was abject - he came up as champions and spent more than some other teams have and failed abysmally. Reading some comments we are almost moving into 'anyone but Coleman' territory. We are in dire straits but that doesn't mean we shouldn't aspire above someone who has previously failed here so abysmally. Never forget we came up as champions and only got 15 points.
