Had to happen. Best of luck to him.
Kieran McKenna / Ipswich manager
- Thread starter RonaldoVII
- Start date
Brilliant news
Except that the RR is having a hard time finding quality coaches for 6 months period.
Not sure how this will be good for RR or the club at this moment
Bye you did nothing.
I don’t know why people are celebrating this, in a way other than wishing him the best on a good opportunity to progress his career. Anyways, you do you.
All the best. I don't think an immediate brain drain is good for us, especially considering how Rangnick is having to scrape the bottom of the barrel for replacements.
Best of luck to him.
He was a prominent figure in two failed regimes how do you expect us to react?
tbf Carrick wants a time out from football, he is not available
He must have a heavy heart about his time at United, everything has been downhill since he is in the coaching team bar a couple of good moments
Well, he did get banned from here
He isn’t the reason why Jose failed and the club hasn’t had success since Ferguson retired, so it’s hard to direct abuse at every assistant since 2013.
Good luck to him. I hope he surprises a few people and does well at Ipswich.
And McTominay? Can he go there as well?
Is it? Perhaps he feels ready to go it alone - the proof will be in the pudding. He's still very young though.
we can think they aren’t good enough, but they obviously think they are which is the point.Literally everyone was clamouring for them to get lost a few weeks ago...
Instead of staying and learning from a well respected experienced coach, they’re off to spend time with the family and coaching at ipswich.
we will see if it’s the right move or not. Hopefully Rangnick made it clear we need changes.
Imagine Rangnick doing really well with ManUtd, surely there be teams willing to bet on McKenna as their manager. Just like Arsenal thought Arteta learnt from Pep.
That was what I was referring to.
That's all ifs buts and maybes.
If Rangnick does well. If that means that somebody will award McKenna credit within that and ignore the last few years. If they'll overlook his lack of a playing career. If Rangnick doesn't bow out at the end of the season and the new manager categorically does not want hangover staff.
It's very different to an esteemed former player that worked under one of the best managers in history, they are two very different sets of circumstances. Waiting out this opportunity would have been looking a gift horse in the mouth.
It is disgracefuly that youtubers' campaign has driven out a professional. With this, I hope United halts at following the shameful example of Arsenal and their youtuber leeches.
Gonna be a tough job that, good luck to the fella.
Wonder what motivated Ipswich to make that appointment.
Not saying he won't do well, I have absolutely no idea but I can't imagine they do either.

Quite the punt by Ipswich.
Funny thing is, would rather have kept him on and not bother with Armas. Armas is down the pecking order for Ralf but was available due to his 1st to 3rd choices unavailable, and would rather have Marsch if possible than Armas.
McKenna is a lame duck coach, plus he has more experience coaching and better experience than many lower league managers at his age. He's coached and manages younger levels, been part of Mourinho and Ole, been around European comps, and PL.
It is a very credible and measured hire by a club like Ipswich.
Alan Brazil has been rolling over his grave many times over the demise of his beloved club.
Ta ra abit
Couldn’t give a shit..I’ll have no interest in how Ipswich are doing now than any other time in their miserable existence
Are you a Norwich fan or just someone who posts like an idiot ?
If I get a bad meal in a restaurant, I blame the chef - not the guy who prepared the vegetables
Arteta is a former relatively high profile player. Carrick had more chance of a Prem job than McKenna. Carrick and Arteta are not comparable to McKenna in terms of their chances at a Prem/Championship job.
Very little chance of that. He'd be getting less pay and would just be getting a similar role there considering Pert is McKenna's assistant. If anything Ramsay might get promoted at Utd if Rangnick can't get replacements for McKenna and Pert.
Get in.. 3.5 years wtf 
Had Ragnick came to United before Xavi was appointed Barca manager, they would have appointed McKenna instead.
Won the U18 title.
You know the likes of Klopp did not suddenly start in Dortmund right ?
We have the shittiest plastic fans in the world, that's why. Its embarrassing.
Seriously, what does this even mean?
No because Phelan is important to us. He does not take training. He does not watch training either. His shorts are the key to our squad balance.
