MARK AND KIERAN ON MANAGER'S NEW DEAL

[@Lee33006]

I hope Mark Ashtons contract has been elevated too as hes been inspirational at this club, what a guy 💙

[@BenjaminBloom]

Be still my beating heart ❤

[@chezlesvincakes]

Will there be a Blue Mondays special on this?

The way Ashton looks at Kieran, its like he's such a proud dad and I don't blame him 🥹 So happy with this news, best signing of the summer and really cant wait for the new season now COYB

[@غديࢪ-ق4ك]

Ipswich Town fans and Ali Al Hammadi from Iraq, we wish you all the best💙💫

[@s.g.engineeringltds.g.engineer]

That’s the first time I’ve seen Kieran almost get emotional during an interview! Just shows how much he feels for the club. Come on you blues, up the premier league we go!

[@thailandxo9509]

Mark Ashton is gold. I don't think there is any club in England just now that can offer better working conditions for a manager than Ipswich Town FC. Kieran is writing himself into our history books with bold letters

[@johnllewellyn3481]

Kieran and Mark and ownership, thankyou. Management and ownership brings success. That's why we, as fans, still get misty eyed about the time when I saw Barca, Rael et all and won. Anything is possible. Don't give up. Johnnie Llewellyn

[@craigwythe4581]

I bumped into a gentleman while on holiday in Spain, who was from Enniskillen. He saw I was wearing a town shirt, and told me his town in Northern Ireland are so proud of Kieran Mckenna.

[@hannecatton2179]

Justifiably proud.

[@dannygrimson2622]

What a lovely pair of blokes. Confidence without ego. They appreciate the heritage of the club and feel the passion we have as fans. I'm so happy Keiran can continue his journey with us. All the very best for next season. Uppa Towen.

[@marvinsymes]

I think mark ashton is very good at his job. He has recognised the family feel of the club and added another level of professionalism without ruining the culture.- Bigger clubs could take note.

[@youyu_yi]

This was the most important update this summer, love this club and love this manager, up the blues !!!

[@chriswright5016]

Thank you to our wonderful owners and Kieran for extending this amazing adventure. I'm truly overjoyed and very emotional.

[@geoffkeig7055]

Get in! Let's get amongst it now Town, bring on the squad strengthening.

[@evandavidge3168]

So much class and humbleness showed by this duo, which will continue to be a recipe for successful growth of the club, whatever the outcome next season.

[@SuperLeonDenny]

YESS!!! We've STILL Got Super Kieran McKenna! :)

[@kopanomolebatsi7938]

🥹🔥One Thing This Club Is Amazing At Is Formally Updating Its Fans. Next Season Is Going To Be Great. Sending Support From South Africa💙🇿🇦…Been a fan since First Touch Soccer 2015

[@andrewcuffe]

Best News for the club 25 years ..

[@Benjamin00720]

Brilliant news. Have every faith in him keeping us in the Premier League. 🎉

[@clabby154]

Great interview- fantastic management team and as fans how lucky are we to have them in charge! Let’s not forget Frank Yallop who created the spark that lit the dying embers of this club 💙

[@calvinliu6304]

Congratulations kirean his new contract...

[@ianaitchison9434]

Fantastic news not only for KM and his staff but the club and the supporters ❤

[@petergraham9381]

That was quite a scare you gave us, Kieren! Great to hear you're staying, looking forward to the new season...

[@whomanbeing]

It was the media, not Kieran!

[@ianmiles4447]

​@@whomanbeing he said himself that he considered the offers, also the short career comment I don't quite understand, he's 38, could manage for at least another 30 years 🤔

[@chailuvgidwani]

What a manager

[@hannecatton2179]

And what a C.E.O. and owners !

[@MultiverseOfMiles]

YAYAYAYA HES STAYING😁😁😁😛😛😍😍

[@whomanbeing]

Excellent news!

[@jamesalsop9295]

Absolutely fantastic, great teamwork, honesty and communication. Been a supporter forever, have seen good times, seen low points but never as professional as now. Bring on 2024-2025, under estimate the potential of ITFC and let's prove them wrong again.

[@ColinTurner-yt4sn]

Well played mark Ashton and Kieran let’s target the premiership now

[@Jules551]

Superb news , who else but Keiran to keep the Ipswich journey moving forward ...I.T.I.D...

[@simonbartlett1558]

Simon Bartlett here from the gold coast Australia, I was born in Ipswich and have been a keen supporter ever since moving down under in 1972. At 62 years of age i'm thrilled to see the tractor boys Go Up ! Thankyou Mark and Kieran , wot a year . Ps i met Sir Bobby Robson and Paul Mariner At a game in New Zealand many years ago. i got there autograghs on a 1978 FA cup final Program. Good Luck in the Premier League.

[@Azzamanify]

We've kept Super Kieran McKenna ❤️

[@Jabberwok28]

We will here THAT around the terraces this summer.

[@johnd7288]

So happy he's signed and staying at super Ipswich town ! Now let's rock the premier and stay there !

[@SeanSullyy]

What super news. The last couple of weeks have been tough. McKenna leaving would have really taken a toll on me. Which is kind of absurd because it’s just football, but that’s how special he’s been to the club! Thank you is in order to Kieran and our owners.

[@dannyp2143]

Great news. Thx for staying 👍😎

[@joshskeemer8658]

Superb news Keep at it boys!

[@andrewjones8656]

Great to listen to Kieran, one of the best, if not the best talkers of football. We have a good feel good factor at this club, between manager and board, unlike some clubs. Looking forward to some new additions, and now Kieran is staying it should lure in lots to choose from.

[@franklinrwful]

Very wise, after all Kieran has done for Town the owners and fans will have much more faith and patience in him than he would have received at another clubs.

[@rossturnbull8047]

What a great outcome, common sense prevails!!

[@geralddaish754]

Very reassuring words from both. Thank you gentlemen. Uppa Towen!

[@Moat86]

spot on, I had no doubts about the outside noise, just headlines.

[@adrianwilliams469]

So pleased that saga is out the way now let's concentrate on next season and do it our way and hopefully winning can become a habit top 12 I predict.

[@hannecatton2179]

There IS a God ! And he has showered his bounty upon us . All praise to him.

[@alliswell2114]

Thankyou Mark ....

[@markwarren38]

So so happy this is sorted😊,,,Norwich fans are sick 😂

[@CiaranMallon]

Well done Kieran

[@jdigity72]

I don’t think this was ever in doubt but great interview and news!

[@Steve-vw3fw]

Kieran made a smart decision in the end , took awhile but got there eventually, can only be good for our club. Onwards & upwards lads !!!!

[@jamessargent8780]

Very noticeable how they appear on the same page.

[@TonyHavenMusic]

This news has convinced me to get the season ticket ❤ see you at Portman Road

[@hannecatton2179]

You are a bit late to the party but a great decision.

[@garybarnes3446]

The best news

[@Benjamin00720]

Keeping our biggest asset will give us a wonderful chance of success (staying in the Premier League). He's an exceptional coach, who gets the best out of our squad. So happy he's still on board.

[@neilwade9870]

👏👏 Nice one guys, very happy !!

[@BarryArcher-i1r]

I always thought you would stay Kieron McKenna and I am so happy I was right and now I feel confident that the ownership’s and the ceo will get behind you now all the supporters of Ipswich will get behind the club

[@tirtoananda4348]

Congratulations For Kieran McKenna. Wish All The Best & Goodluck. See You Soon In Premier League Season 2024-2025 For Ipswich Town FC.

[@laketaal]

It's a no brainer. Keiran just cannot fail personally. Even if Town go down he will still be in demand by top clubs (Vincent Kompany, for example). He and his family are reported to be happy in the area. We may have to go through all this next year again when Town qualify for Europe. Keiran is a massive attraction for players who can see how he improves them. Just look at the huge improvement in Omari Hutchinson and he is not the only one.

[@andycarr3711]

'We'd like to think it's worked out pretty well' Mckenna on originally being offered the job by Mark.

[@chrysalis66]

Get in!!!!!

[@mcleods-bd8ol]

Great interview 💙💙

[@STST]

He was ALWAYS staying.

Thank god can go to sleep tonight now with mckenna signing we will get better players coming here now 😊

[@loose167]

WEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE'VE GOT SUPER KIERAN MCKENNA...

[@Deborsen]

Most important deal done in May 💙🚜

[@JemAllen-c4n]

Ipswich Town fc premiership amazing team spirit 👏

[@sanmateoflights]

Smart decision. If he keeps Ipswich in the PL, then he could manage Real Madrid one day, oh wait, even a relegation will guarantee a job like Bayern.

[@Tripgeek]

I could not have borne a Kieran McKenna team playing against us this season ❤

[@PorcupIneOmg]

Congratulations on behalf of the fan Torpedo Moscow! ❤

[@BalikKertapatiNakNgapoKau]

Congratulation Kieran McKenna,, Bagaimana dengan Posisi pemain belakang, ada dua pemain yang bermain di posisi belakang yang masa peminjamannya habis sampai 30 Juni 2024, Axel Tuanzebe dan Cameron Burgess, keduanya bermain di posisi Bek Tengah, apakah mereka berdua akan di pinjam kembali ataukah merekrut satu pemain baru di posisi belakang, dan dengan memaksimalkan memberdayakan Elkan Baggott sebagai pemain pelapis yang sudah kembali dari peminjaman Bristol Rovers, Untuk sementara ada tiga pemain posisi sebagai Bek Tengah yang ada di Ipswich Town : 1. Luke Woolfenden 2. George Edmundson 3. Elkan Baggott Masih butuh satu pemain lagi untuk mengisi kedalaman squad,,

[@simonburrows2029]

I am, of course, delighted but now the pressure is really on for him to perform. COYB

[@MuhammadFarrel-k8u]

Good luck ipswich. Thank you Elkaan , do the best. Indonesia premier league fans. 😢😢😢🇮🇩🇮🇩🇮🇩

[@EnglishMooseBoy]

SO FUCKING HAPPY 😊

[@carlmichael5592]

With Kieran, top 10 finish. Without him, relegated. Simple as that.

[@darylsnell6799]

Can you ask First Eastern if the open-top bus is available for another lap???

[@adih4052]

Lets crack on ❤

[@robinperronjones5024]

4 years is a long time when there are huge clubs out there wanting good managers. There must be “get out” clauses before the 4 years are up just in case a large club comes knocking. The EPL is different than the Championship

[@evanworby3960]

He was never leaving in the first place, it was only media rubbish as usual! His goal was always to take Ipswich to the premiership and manage them there.

[@haniaj2023]

i believe on this too....mark said times and times don't listen to outside noise....

[@TheRealBelly1982]

UPPA TOWEN 💙

[@johngreene7911]

Matt Holland, that goal against Cameroon

[@amilliontoms]

Kieran has played a blinder to cash in on the speculation with a bumper new deal, whilst his stock is at its highest. Who knows how he’ll be seen come Christmas after several spankings.

[@JustiiceBraave]

Sign some new players ( Sheaf , Greaves , Berge , Barkley, Gronberk... )

[@Droneaway-72]

Kmk could even trump the legend that is Bobby Robson Onwards and upwards

[@windemup5316]

How much transfer kitty do you think he'll get?

[@ufc334]

BLUE ARMY!!!

[@marknorman8133]

How much too stay !

[@christopheredwards4428]

onward and upwards great news europe next year?

[@markcole5187]

Woohooo!

[@TonyHavenMusic]

No we have to back him in the transfer market, not 20 championship players for 10 million each but 2 or 3 premier league experienced players to mix with our youth 🎉

[@princeasante4351]

You are wise for staying there buddy. Chelsea and Man utd will have destroyed you

[@MrTrevorhann]

I hoped...it happened...C.O.Y,B

[@shawngladding8196]

Best news ever .well done mr .aston

[@MuhammadImHardBruceLee]

The world's best-paid hostage...

[@adeoyeemmanuel132]

Your reason is to let club to stay in premier league in many seasons in jesus name. I want to survive in the premier league

[@MICHAELCAMPBELL69]

Like when Kieron didn’t like the word convincing

[@ulwanf6399]

Please buy striker 🌟

[@alexking805]

United are going to regret this

[@shahid1296ify]

They'll do it the shark way... Attack from behind. So when you see Haaland in the penalty box.... Attack from behind😆😆

[@ianmiles4447]

Short career 🤔 at his age he could easily manage for at least another 30 years, glad he's staying for now but takes a bit of shine off for me.

[@Philip__325]

Mckenna looks like he’s being held hostage here 😂
