There is a bulldog who lives next door called Rocky.  I'll have a go in my lunch and post some pictures up later.

For the record I like Roy Keane and think he'll do a good job at the tractor boys.

I thought calling him an "excuse of a human being" was a little over the top, as someone telling me today they were "embarrassed to be a human" when they heard about the Jade Goody musical.

I know Magilton was a scummer. But he's probably too embaressed by them to talk about Oxford nowadays.

Its a brutal sacking. Couldnt even wait for the final 2 games of the season. Looks like he might have been chatting to Roy's agent for a while?

Looks more like the chairman wanted to raise his own profile a bit. Look at how much dosh Ive spent. Disloyal fans as well.

Keane is one of these British managers, who look great in the Championship (Keegan and Hoddle spring to mind). So actually I think it will work out for them.

I doubt it, Marcus Evans is more secretive than MI6.

I would guess that Jim Magilton already knew that he was being sacked when he went to go and see his mother.

Interestingly Ipswich as a town is smaller than Swindon, yet it is accepted that they are higher in the football pyramid than ourselves. There aren't that many professional football clubs anywhere near them, but then we have to go 40 miles west/east/north to find one near us.

It really makes you think doesn't it.

The fact that they won the UEFA Cup and had a decade in the top division under Sir Bobby probably helps too.

The UEFA cup - a poor man's anglo-Italian.

You mean he doesn't leave laptops with all of Ipswich's business plans on tube trains/in lapdancing clubs/insert other random place that fuckwit "I'm actually a civil servant but I have James Bond fantasies" types might leave national secrets here? It's not a high bar is it? Smiley

I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought this was the most worrying news in the thread.

It is true. I read it yesterday somewhere, there aiming for it to be out in 4 months.

Then I too am ashamed to be human. I'm ashamed to have been born on this planet. I'm ashamed of all sentient life. I'm just ashamed
