Bring Delap back - fans on O'Neil priorities

- Published

We asked for your views on Ipswich Town's appointment of Gary O'Neil as manager and what his first priorities should be.
Here are some of your comments:
Mark: We must get at least two quality and proven goalscorers and our midfield needs additions. Also the manager must have a plan A and B. Our priorities must be to stay in the Premier League.
James: This is not a good appointment at all, however we have to get behind it. The one thing I think needs to happen is getting Liam Delap back on loan. If O'Neil can use his BlueCo connection to make it happen this would be a great bit of business.
Malcolm: I imagine he could do a decent job, but starting off with perhaps 50% of fans against him means there will be zero margin for error when the season gets underway.
Paul: O'Neil was not the most fantastic appointment but certainly not the worst. It's not a name we associate with exciting, free-flowing football but then again, the best that could be said about last season's football is that it was competent apart from some outstanding performances, among them Coventry away. We crave the excitement of the two promotion years from League One to the Premier League but I'm sure most supporters would be more than happy if O'Neil can put a squad together to ensure a modicum of safety.
