Transfers
View attachment 307656
My main focus was on CB AND MC, Martin and Ben-Haim both take hefty wages but will start most games, Keane and King the big buys, hopefully in a couple of years they will be Prem Quality. Herd and Mackie both add flexiblity with positions and add quality. Glass is keeper back up, will look in January or next season for a proper number 2 keeper and Devine will go back out on loan, he probably wont come to anything.

Lost some dead weight and loaned out the good prospects, Chopra can be bought for 350k. would have kept on Lee-Barrett if I knew there wasn't a replacement for him
Friendly's

Up and down preseason reading was only game with my regular starters so that was biggest let down.
Season 12/13
August 2012
Capital One
Northampton 0 - 5 Ipswich
View attachment 307653
Great start for King lower league opposition, but 4 goals on debut is a good start.
Championship
Wolves 2 - 3 Ipswich
View attachment 307652
King came on after the Doyle goal to grab the winner.
Championship
Ipswich 3 - 1 Cardiff
View attachment 307651
Gave King a start for the winning goal last game and he comes up with a hatrick, he could have had a few more. He seems to be getting behind any defense and has good aerial presence.
Championship
Nottingham Forest 2 -1 Ipswich

We should have won this after the sending off, Herd is out for 2-3 weeks.
Capital One
Ipswich 2 - 1 Sunderland
View attachment 307649
We destroyed Sunderland in the first half, they had 2 shoots and scored one. Great display against Albeit struggling higher league opposition.
August round up
View attachment 307648
King and Keane already proving their worth.

Just the one loss so a very good start hopefully we can push on, We drew Preston in the Capital One Cup so a great chance of getting through to the next round.
