[Albion] Kieran McKenna

Good player that

That’s not strictly true. We had a superb start to the season. We lost only one league game before being thumped 6-1 by Villa on 30th of September. Things started to go tits up when the injuries started piling up, especially when Solly March got crocked away at Man City.

 

[DJ NOBO]

We all know he wants Man U, but if they go with more experienced coach my hunch is he won't come here, he'll just use all the speculation to drive up his contract offer at Ipswich, sign and say he always wanted to stay.

Disagree.

He’s just watched all last year’s promoted clubs, get relegated.

Plus we have a reputation for being unusually well-run.

If it’s Albion or Ipswich he’s choosing us

Think we could se a curveball here where he ends up at Leicester.

Except Leicester are in FFP shit and are almost certainly going to have a points deduction next season.

Chelsea: Kieran McKenna no longer in contention for Blues job

Ipswich Town boss Kieran McKenna is no longer in contention to become Chelsea's next manager.

[DJ NOBO]

Agree. You don’t want a manager who’s already indicated where he wants to go next already!! Rate Utd and other chaotic rich 6 clubs go, he’ll be constantly linked with and a massive distraction. It’s a no from me also.

Only failing managers don’t get linked with other jobs.

There’s a reason Maresca wants out. PSR.
He won’t go there. Ipswich better positioned than Leicester.

 

[Hamilton]

I understand, but we will never get a 100% Brighton manager as simply put, we gave no ex-players / managers with connections good enough to manage the club.
McKenna wants manu, if we got him for 3/4 years while he is trying to prove himself to the manc board surely the club would benefit?

100%. If we got a manager for 3 or 4 years I’d be delighted.

 

[trueblue]

Honestly.. McKenna should stay at Ipswich. Do a season in the Prem.. THEN move. As we've seen with Kompany, even being relegated wont hurt his stock.

Kompany has a massive international reputation as a player to fall back on. Rightly or wrongly, that helps.

Worries me that we've been left hanging too long now. Usually, for us, when we are left waiting it doesn't end well.

Likewise. As said before, depending on who we get, I am hugely fearful for next season.

I'd assume we haven't been able to land our first choice on the list

One week! That’s hardly left hanging too long. Besides, no one outside of the club knows what the intentions of the board are or the state of progress.

It was 10 days between Potter being announced as leaving/ RDZ announced as being hired. We're currently on day 9.

What absolute nonsense.

You don’t finish 11th and top of a Europa League group without winning a few games.

 

[banjo]

B/H weekend, maybe everyone involved are just having some family time. Announcement in the next couple of days.

Wish I was this calm haha feels genuinely like it has been weeks!

We want an answer this week...

Fab usually bang on. Don't like being 3rd choice for McKenna. But it is what it is. Financially I feel like Ipswich could push the boat out to match us salary wise. Will be a hard call for him I'm sure.

The independent had this last night. And HITC confirmed it this morning. It’s McKenna.

 

[Uh_huh_him]

Wasn't it said that any manager is potentially 6 games from the sack? That is especially so in these times. McKenna needs to move on from Ipswich, the Premier League is now a graveyard for promoted clubs.

He sounds very promising. My main concern is that as a manager he seems only to have tasted success. What will be be like in adversity for sure as night follows day he will surely meet some in the PL.

are you saying we may not win the league, next season
