Scored the winner today v Villa
Think its okay having these players but not at any cost , if as reported Huws took a voluntary pay cut because of a conflict between Warnock and Mccarthy on who pays what, well done NW and the city for sticking to their guns ,as the lad wasn't delivering value for money .
I'm guessing that's why Okeefe and Kennedy went , good players but overpaid for squad players .
At last a sensible value for money sensible policy is happening.
I am not aware of any conflict, only that Huws was earning more than what Ipswich were able to pay so rather than sit on his backside & collect his wages he decided to forgo some money in return for playing time.
I doubt we will see O'Keefe in a City shirt again as I don't think that Warnock rates him. Kennedy on the other hand has been loaned out so that Warnock can see him playing competitive football on a regular basis & if he keeps up his current form I think that he will play a part for us next season.
At least we still have Kennedy.
I would love that too. Think Lawrence has elevated his value beyond our price range now. The time to have signed him would have been last summer. Was Lawrence's experience so bad that he wouldn't want to re-join us though?
You might be on to something here. Was Who's on a big appearance bonus??
I think perhaps though he's just not a Warnock type player? In that he's very calm and measured, wheras Warnock likes combative blood and guts type players.
I'm a bit pissed off Warnock never gave him a chance to be honest. Maybe it was a cost issue.
He was poor for us though in all his appearances, PT didn't pick him either and when he did, he let him down big time at PNE. The best case scenario is he plays outstandingly well for Ipswich, so we either sell him for big(ish) money or he comes back into our first team.
He was never available for Trollope as he was injured up until his last game or two, by which time the whole squad's form was in the dumps. Bit of a nightmare scenario for him to come into the team on top of lacking match time.
Hopefully smashes it at Ipswich like you say. I'm not holding out much hope of him getting a chance for us next year if Warncock is still here though.
That's not true, he came off the bench in our third league game of the season, started at PNE and we had 4 games after that with PT. Trollope didn't give him a go when our midfield was absolutely hopeless so there must have been something off. He's started like a house on fire at Ipswich too but vs Fulham he was hopeless. I don't think Warnock fancies him but he's been very complimentary about his attitude so hopefully he can be a "new signing" for us next year or we can get some money for him. It doesn't always work out for everyone but I wish him well whatever happens.
I had it my head that the PNE was Trollope's penultimate game. You're right, I'd forgotten that sub appearence/s. Very few minutes if I can remember right. But all irrelevant now I suppose anyway. Going forward, it would be amazing if Who's can prove himself to be the player I've hyped him up to be at Ipswich.
