Being in the Premier League usually means doing well in the Championship the season before, so.........
Subscriber CaaC (John)+ Posted October 27, 2018 Subscriber Posted October 27, 2018 Lambert's first game in charge and Ipswich lose 3-0 to Millwall, happy days ahead. Edit: I think I got that wrong, Lambert was watching from the stands so maybe he is not in charge yet?

Marc Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Weird appointment. I have to hate Lambert now but i'll still never forget them 3 years he was our manager, unbelievable times. I wouldn't be inspired if I was an ipswich fan, he hasn't done anything of note since leaving us 10 years ago. He knows how to pick a sinking ship though, he's made some terrible choices of jobs/clubs As for the big club debate, it's tiresome and if you're looking at it with a level headed approach, neither us or them can say we are clearly the 'bigger' cub. The two biggest factors are trophies and fan base. They clearly win trophies we clearly win fan base. Don't forget we don't get a couple of thousand more than them, it's about 10k!!! We also had loads of years of shit around the bottom end of the championship and league 1 and still averaged 25k. Blackburn have won more trophies than Leeds it doesn't make them a bigger club. Storts has always had a soft spot for ipswich. Villa's trophy cabinet trumps Tottenham's, does that make them a bigger club?
Dave Posted October 28, 2018 Posted October 28, 2018 Based on his previous work he should keep them up, but I can see the atmosphere being a rather poisonous one given his Norwich connections and that he will prioritise results over sexy football.
Lucas Posted October 30, 2018 Posted October 30, 2018 Ipswich lost Waghorn (12), Garner (10), Celina (7) and McGoldrick (6) in the summer. That's their 4 highest scorers from last season. All replaced by League One players unproven at this level. You do the math. Asking for trouble. Worst team we have played to date this season without a doubt. Could have seriously put a big score on the board that game. Going down for me. I can't see how Paul Lambert is going to keep them up, I really don't.
