Hi all - Ipswich fan in peace

There's a rumour up here that you might be looking at our former manager George Burley as a fixed-term appointment to (eventually) replace Sami. I know George was at Palarse for a bit, but there's a bit in favour of the bloke:

a) can work on a budget
b) Plays free-flowing football
c) Has a good record with developing younger players.

Don't know if it's likely, but George was interviewed by our local rag recently and he admitted he'd only go back into management if "the right club, with decent youth team players to help develop and a good background of stability, came along". If you do go for GB, you'll probably also get Matt Holland as a first-team coach (ex-Bournemouth and an ITFC legend) and, if he gets fed up with Gus, Mauricio Treacle again.

Could be a winner!

I'm looking forward to the thread suggesting we're getting Dowie in.

If we want a manager we'll come for Mick McCarthy. You can have Burley, you know free-flowing football, good with younger players........

Some things money can't buy, managers without a pedigree isn't one of them. Burley.

Ah George Burley, Was a good manager once, whatever happened to him? Was it the drink? Shame because he was good for a while.

It is a shame , I heard a few stories and it really isn't surprising .
