Huddersfield vs Ipswich Town Preview & Matchday Thread

Declined comment thus far as believe there isn't much than can be added from recent performance. There's little to no enjoyment following this team anymore and no offense to anyone, but a certain sense of apathy such has been the continued results and non-improvement. (The players and management seem not to give a damn so why should I show any interest ?)

One or two of the new kids who featured may have showed a level of promise but it's going to take a whole lot more than that to make this club competitive once more. Needless to say, whatever was going to occur, McCarthy was always going to be at the end of it all to oversee another week of mishap and inflicting further damage on the club.

I guess our perennial on the sidlines forward McGoldrick is injured. God that guy must be made of glass, should have shipped him out when the chance was there. At least we would have a body that can play 90 minutes without getting injured

The flip side to that is Thousands of Town fans created like hell at the prospect of Didsy going to Leicester and challenged Evans to show his ambition by keeping him, we did. Now though it is Evans was an arsehole for not cashing in on him. Damned if he does and damned if he doesn't, that is not to say I am supporting him cus I ain't but as I stated elsewhere not everything the club does is always wrong.

When Leicester bid for him I didn't want us to sell. In hindsight I would have but at that time I wouldn't and I think Evans deserved credit there.

Evans isn't a football man, he needs someone who is football wise to do the running whist he sits in background. People like Clegg and Milne aren't good enough. He needs a David sheepshanks to help him (even if he did get a lot of abuse). Someone of that ilk

That is spot on, he was a good man who got dogs abuse for nothing.

It's a shame he moved on but I guess there's absolutely no chance he'd ever make the backward step to come back to Portman Road. If you look back to when he joined the Town board in 1987 he had absolutely no football experience whatsoever, but clearly he had an affinity with the game which he's now been involved with for almost 30yrs.

Given it was he who brokered the sale of the club to Marcus Evans in 2007, the one thing he could still do for us would be to find a new buyer to take over from Evans, but again that would be highly unlikely.

I'm not sure how you find another David Sheepshanks but there must be other talented business leaders like him, but certainly you guys are right it is a David Sheepshanks lookalike that's missing from the Town Board.
