Next Ipswich Manager

[ICTRoughi]

Lots on twitter about Terry Butcher being the next Ipswich manager. Funnily enough, a C*unty fan started the rumour last Friday but I'm seeing some of the Ipswich fans are wanting him too.

Thoughts?

It seems Paulo Di Canio and Alan Curbishley are the main names at the moment being mentioned.

However, with the great start ICT have had this season, I wouldnnt be surprised if Terry's name isn't at least mentioned as an option.

Personally I think he'll stay. He's got unfinished business with ICT and has made the team his own. It's shaping up nicely now. He loves the area too, and despite his history with Ipswich, I think he'll be with us for a long time to come yet.

County fans going on all bleddy week about this. I was waiting for Staggy4life or Jailender to come on here and start a rumour.... but we‘re doing it ourselves!!! Its County fans on Twatter claiming to have ‘reliable info‘ and about 3 ITFC fans saying he could be an option.

[Snafu]

Can't see Terry leaving for a while yet.

Rita says he's not allowed to go. She likes it here and wants to stay. So there.

Quite amusing that this topic is one of the hottest on CTO AND over the bridge. Those boys are obsessed with us! Tough being in our shadow though.

Exactly! Rita wears the trousers

and according to Terrys book, green dresses also. Butcher will stay.

I reckon he will stay aswell but it's always worth a debate.

It would be stupid for him to go now especially when we have an important game next week at Sevco.

It's public knowledge that he bought a house in the Ipswich area last week...

[PaderbornCaley]

There he is! Obsessed.

Hahahahahaha! OBSESSED!

[Haugh Aye]

It's public knowledge that he bought a house in the Ipswich area last week...

Its public knowledge that Cownty fans wouldn't know what a house looks like.

[PaderbornCaley]

staggy4lifes 'public knowledge' comes from his google search finding one person chatting on an ITFC page... obsessed indeed.

Next he'll be claiming Houston isn't on the brink and Thompson isn't after Adams.

[AJS]

I'll just say obsessed too, everyone seems to be doing it .

Dont think Terry will go, said countless times that he is settled up here and is making real progress this season and knowing him he will want to see the job through.

Rumor Mill for this nonsense....

TB is only mentioned once on the ipswich town forum

[PaderbornCaley]

Nah Don! It should be kept here, just for the comedy value.

The poor souls OTB might not be able to find it.

Told you all before Terry is going to be the Ferguson of the NORTH long may he reign

So it's between terry butcher and Owen coyle for me ! Won't be happy with curbishley he's been out the game too long !#NextIpswichManager

[PaderbornCaley]

Well that settles it! Fans talking pi5h on a football forum is more than a rumour!

[ICTRoughi]

After seeing that Terry Butcher wasn't on the sky bets list. Might aswell delete this thread Admin.

[KingBeastie]

"Rita says relax!"

[Renegade]

It's public knowledge that he bought a house in the Ipswich area last week...

You are obsessed! But also in this case correct.

IMO Butcher probably would leave for Ispwich, it is the club he supported and played for after all. Whether he'd be offered it or not though is a different story.

[+bughtmaster]

Sorry I forgot to say obsessed

Some amount of roasters on this thread

Let's not beat about the bush here if Terry was offered any of the three dream jobs in his head( England, Orc/Sevco or Ipswich job he'd be off down the A9 without as much as a farewell wave

Butcher is a nomadic manager who has been with various clubs in different countries I'm afraid those who thinks he will stay for sentimental reasons or because the highlands has nice scenery are sadly deluded

Butcher is a legend at Ipswich Town, he captained them and to manage them would be a great honour for him

If the rumours circulating regarding him selling up and buying property in East Anglia are correct I will wish him well and there will be no negativity or public outcry from me
