    It was a sad day. But even if they had won they would of still gone down. Lets hope that Ipswich can make one last push towards the play-offs.

    Up The Blues :D

    A tie to Millwall did not help our cause...

    Meanwhile Monaco are keen to bring back Jimmy Juan at the end of the season. :(

    to be honest it would've been a bonus after such a turnover of players this year to even make the playoffs.

    and then it probably would've been a long year next year (sunderland style) in the premiership if they's made it.

    better to build up a stronger team with a few more youngsters and make a proper tilt at it.

    next year might be good......

    BBC is also reporting that Jimmy Juan is going back to Monaco at end of season and that Sito will be leaving the club as the club "can't afford to have 2 Right-Backs."

    Who'll be the new manager now that Royle has gone? I was never a fan.

    How about Frank Yallop?!?!?!?!?!

    How about Paul Mariner?

    They've had success in the US... especially Yallop.

    I think Yallop is just getting started with the Canada national team.

    Curbishley is the obivious choice. That would be great. Be will probably be an unkown.

    In all seriousness, Bruce Arena would be great.

    Butcher is coming down here to manage Sydney FC since Pierre Littbarski left.

    How about the guy from Luton Town- he's brought them up three promotions in three seasons or something like that- doesnt sound bad!

    Magilton favorite for Town job?

    I dunno if he has the crudentals to be manager...I think he should be part of our coaching staff, but not manager.

    Surely someone wants to take this job? :confused:

    His contract ends after the WC I think...and he says he's open to overseas coaching opportunities.

    Interesting past days...

    Alex Bruce, son of Steve Bruce, comes to the club
    While it looks like Ian Westlake will be leaving.

    My god... could this start be any worse? Actually, not pointswise.

    Dead last on the table, and I am not pleased!

    Was Magilton a mistake? I'm actually a bit shocked they gave him the reins.
