His name is bound to be linked with most Championship vacancies to be honest.

And Mick comes to us? Be like when John Bond came in.
All that's for next season, let's just get the job done this year first.

If we go up you never know but don't blame him if he went to a bigger club if we don't get promoted.

let us hope we can keep him for at least another season If we are still a league 1 club I wouldn't be surprised if he moves on in the summer. Hopefully we will get promoted and keep hold of him next season. It's the first time in a long time since we've had a manager that is liked by everyone, players and fans won't have a bad word said about him.

Living 10 miles from Ipswich and working with many Ipswich fans I've followed their slow decline closely. They are a club in decline. Attendances down to as low as 13k, bored fans, toxic atmosphere etc. Also got a chairman who is afraid or unable to invest so their season is usually over by Christmas. Too good to go down, nowhere near good or consistent enough to challenge promotion. In this context Hurst is exactly the kind of manager they need, able to work wonders on a budget and unearth gems that others have missed.

Girlfriend’s family are Ipswich fans. Been to see they 5 or 6 times over the last few years and they’ve always been utter garbage. I think this Salop team would stuff them.

I'd echo stowmarket shrew too...plus we chatted about this during the journey today to the game!
Ipswich are in a real need for a team who'll work hard and hungry players looking to prove people wrong.
Limited budget but Hurst has shown what he can do and how to spend money wisely.

I'd tell them he's a Norwich city fan...that'll put them off.

If Hurst goes offer the job to his assistant with mat Sadler as player/coach.

Mowbray & The Cowley Brothers have also been linked with the Ipswich job. Toxic crowd with a club going nowhere. Norwich would be a better fit for Hurst.

It’s a minor miracle that we have managed to keep hold of Hurst this long. I really thought someone would have tried poaching him by now.
Hasselbaink was gone by December when Burton were in a similar position.

Mentioned this in another thread. Knew Mowbray was being looked at for Ipswich but if they are looking down the leagues is hard to ignore the achievements of PH.

I would have to say what a thoroughly good manager and all round decent chap Mr Mowbray is and I have sent a letter to the Board of Directors at Ipswich Town FC recommending him for the post of manager/head coach at their club for the forthcoming season.

No good us losing sleep about whether Paul will stay or go. He has been a breath of fresh air at the Meadow and his achievements in such a short time without spending a lot of money are remarkable.
We would all love him to stay but if he does not you cannot do any more than wish him well and thank him very much.
I do hope this is not too big a distraction for him and Chris with the upcoming play offs. It could be argued he has not won anything and the Check a Trade final loss and missing out on automatics mean all our eggs are in one basket to have something tangible to show for our seasons efforts.
Either way Paul, Chris and all involved with this squad, have given us a fabulous season and I hope it continues, it has been far better than fighting the battle to avoid relegation. Thank you Paul, Chris et al!

Sadly if he goes, he goes and there is nothing we can do. It would be good to see him stay and build on this year but we can't blame him if he moves on. Perhaps we will offer Chris Doig a chance if he doesn't go as well.
For personal reasons it will just be another reason to dislike Ipswich!

Looking at that list - you should be telling all and sundry that he really wouldn't suit them. There are much better listed including the lovely, charming, Mr. Mowbray!

I think he's bound to go somewhere he's the equivalent of a striker who's just scored 40 goals

I'm guessing it very much depends on whether we go up or not. There is a half-decent chance he will stay if we are in the Championship next season. If we don't make it, then he's likely to move on.

Even if we go up, a club like Ipswich will have much bigger crowds, a bigger budget, and a higher salary. Moving to them would be a no brainier for PH
