He's not a bad manager and doesn't seem too bad a bloke but he's the type who won't take advice from anybody-a bit "pig headed" is putting it kindly.He was told what to do by many a few on here.Sorry he got sacked but you take your chances

I think it’s easy for us older posters to confuse Ipswich of old with the modern day set up.  In the last few years they have really fell off the pace when compared to most of “Premiership 2”

No real money, and crowds sub 15k on many occasions

Someone appears to have wiped the ticks and crosses scores when the threads were merged.....is this weeks "Post of the Week" now null and void?

Quoted from bradzmilne
Not nice to see anyone lose their job.

But, I for one will put my hands up and say I cannot stand the bloke and I don’t think it’s something I’ve ever put on record on here.

When town got promoted, obviously it was the first success since 1997/1998. For a generation of fans (myself included) that meant we saw absolutely no success during our lifetime to that point.  The overwhelming sense of desperation to see any sort of anything other than town plummet from one division to the next was immense. OK, granted we had the 05/06 season but that’s another story of misery for another time.

The day at Wembley was one of the best days of my life. Yet even still, when cupped his ears it left an awfully bitter taste in my mouth.

How dare he ? How dare he try and take the limelight from a day that I’d waited my entire life to date for ?

Regardless of what had been said before, why couldn’t he just be happy and enjoy the moment. If nothing else - let the fans enjoy their moment. We’d waited so many years of just pure dross for this and regardless of absolutely anything, we indirectly paid his wages for 6 years of those. Why couldn’t he have just let it slide for another time ?

I’ve been called petty on numerous occasions for feeling that way and “oh yeah, but it wasn’t aimed directly at you” however that feeling will always be in my stomach about the bloke.


Do you know him personally? I doubt his first thought was to spoil your day. I'm sure he was enjoying the moment and just pushing back at some of the unwarranted bile, abuse and hate he received at BP & places like Halifax that season. I'd move on life's to short & you're a long time dead.

The broadcast media have taken him pieces this week Matt Holland, Alan Brazil and Adrian Durham have all destroyed him at some point. I doubt he'll be out of work too long.

There's no way Ipswich are going to take on another no mark lower league manager. Paul Lambert 1/4 at the moment

Compared to Hurst, Jolley is potentially a far better manager. I base that on his willingness to learn from his mistakes and not being too stubborn to do something about it ...... plus he has tactical ability for one-off games and can get players to perform.

New manager expected to start in next 24 to 48 hours,

I was told Lambert a couple of weeks ago so I expect it will be him in charge at Millwall on Saturday
