Pitch Inspection: Pre-Season

A new season beckons on the murky horizon. New signings bid to etch their name in Ipswich Town folklore. A chorus of passionate fans follow their club across Europe, in hope of seeing silverware lifted by their beloved blues... Or... The Town players are back on Monday, let's have a look at how they're shaping up for the new season.

My ITFC 11

In this blog, I am going to pick my ultimate Ipswich eleven, since I began watching the club week-in-week-out. This is an idea I hope you, the reader, will participate in, sharing your own ultimate 11's using #MyITFC11 on Twitter. If you do wish to take part, don't forget to tweet @Hubitfc so I can see the great squads you all put together.

The New Guys – The Holy One

In this blog, I will be looking specifically at Town's new goalkeeping addition, Tomas Holy; the pro's, the con's, his role in the side and an overall conclusion as to whether he will be a key part in Town's promotion bid.

Town’s Transfer Targets #6

After the recent retained and release lists were announced by Championship clubs, every free-agent under the sun was batted around with a possible move to Suffolk. Frustrating, right? Well, unfortunately, I'm going to add to the unofficial rumour-mill by supplying FIVE potential names that could move to Town for a staggering fee of absolutely nothing.

Town’s Transfer Targets #5

In this blog, we will be looking at three more potential targets for Paul Lambert, all featuring within weak areas of Town's current squad. As previously stated, these may not be the most feasible options I have suggested. However, for the sake of meeting a brief and looking at some more experienced heads, these are the best that I could find.

Town’s Transfer Targets #4

In the previous three transfer blogs, we have searched the English leagues for talent that could aid Town's promotion bid next season. But not this week. Instead, we will be looking to Scotland, a place Paul Lambert knows well, to assess the talent that could make the move to Suffolk in the Summer.

Paul Lambert: The Pros and Cons

The Paul Lambert Predicament rolls on at Portman Road, with fans somewhat divided as to whether he is the right man to take the club forward. 3 Wins in 30 games, a lack of goals and confirmed relegation leaves question marks over the Scotsman's ability to manage this group of players.

Town’s Transfer Targets #3

In my opinion, there are three key areas in the Town squad that need to be strengthened heading into next season: central defence, wingers and strikers. In this blog, I'm going to take a look at three additions, from each of those positions, that Town could make to bolster their unbalanced squad.

Town’s Transfer Targets #2

In this blog, I am going to look at 3 stars that could be available on loan next season. On top of that, each of these players, if they performed to a certain standard, could be allowed to leave their club on a permanent basis; for the right price, of course.
