Ipswich

Promoted to the Championship last season, they're averaging 2.4 points a game. What a job Kieran McKenna is doing.

I really hope they go up, especially if we stay up, as you'd imagine back-to-back promotions would be a step too far.

United/City/Sheff U away aside, they gave us as good of a game as any last season - especially at Portman Road.

Really impressed with McKenna, doing a fabulous job!

We were running away with the league and lost some matches at the end of the season that should have been certainties and The Tractor boys pipped us at the post ( was Ramsey in charge?)

Yes Ramsey - and we absolutely blew it, winning one of our last ten games when it looked as though we were going to walk the league.

The ten league games plus a semi-final replay, all within 27 days in April, was simply too big an ask.

A cruel end to a brilliant season.

They are actually a proper club, good fans and an away end that reminds you that the old days that were not all that good. As for 62 its done we dropped the points, leave it and move on after 60 years. They have carried the flag in the 80/90s for smaller clubs so deserve some respect. Lets hope we are still around to see Leicester and Ipswich next season....UTC

Didn’t we get robbed in the FA Cup semi against Spurs with a couple of dodgy goals we didn’t get?or was that the year we got to Wembley,just edited it ,we beat Fulham in a replay ,went to the first leg at Villa Park and it snowed .

Kieran McKenna is a very impressive young coach who plays a very attractive style of football.

Future Man Utd manager 100%,

I’d love him here.
