Reminds me of the lad who came on loan from the USA a couple of seasons back, big fast lad, almost propelled the team to the playoffs (thinking Barnsley for some reason). Now at WBA, Daryl Dike. I thought Simpson looks a better prospect and a lot cheaper as well 😙😉🤣 Just looked him up while you were typing 🤣 Signed in January and then done a hammy 2nd game, out for the rest of the season. Think I’d rather this lad 👍

Looks very heavy footed even at league 2 level going off that video. But our hit rate with young signings has been so good lately that I trust what the recruitment team are doing if he comes here.

What a shocking miss from the chance at approx. 0:17 - 0:22. Doesn't look great to me besides that - I reckon Boothy would be able to beat him in a foot race. Edit: Personal life Simpson played rugby when he was young, representing Langley school, while also participating in athletics while representing Great Yarmouth and District Athletics Club. He was offered a professional contract by Rugby union club Leicester Tigers in March 2018, but turned the offer down so that he could pursue a career in football. The size of him says rugby union player. I don't think he's got enough pace for that sport either. The Ipswich fans think differently regarding his pace. www.twtd.co.uk/forum/476491/joe--what-is-your-view-on-tyreece-simpson-(n-t)/They'll know better than I will, if they've seen him. He looked rather sluggish in the video (100% of my knowledge of his existence).

Potential for some to roll out the old criticism of 'his thighs are too big for him to run'.

I'd take anyone right now FFS. The fact that we've only signed Boyle so far is of great concern. No it's not, as not much activity has taken place anywhere, as has been pointed out a number of times. However, the fact we aren't hardly being linked to anyone who would be an obvious starter is a concern. Loans for promising young EPL players and lower league punts are pretty much it 🙈 I really hope DH proves me wrong, but feels like we're being run like the Card Factory/The Works 😆

I do feel like dean isn’t going to be putting even the levels in he did pre premier league.think if we get transfers fees in a portion of it will be re invested in players,however wouldn’t imagine the portion to be a big one.I’m normally fairly positive in general however feel like we probably won’t capitalise on the squad we have there now,will slide maybe to mid table this year and then when contracts are up to the bigger earners/more experienced squad members are up they won’t be renewed.not all doom and gloom because still think can finish mid table/just above this year just think with few teams just outside playoffs seemingly strengthening and couple who were lower mid table too the division will be tougher this year,couple that with fact that realistically we over achieved last season might be a lot more up and down season.would always add though that it’s football and it rarely makes any sense 😂

I think we’ll go from strength to strength as a club doing what we’re doing, and that is a refreshing feeling.

I have no idea what this lad is like but Critchlow was doing well at Swindon then got pushed up a division and hardly got a game. There may be various things which contributed to that but he is back in League 2 this season. The message really is doing well in League 2 doesn't mean a player can step up one division never mind 2. Could be one to develop, if so that sounds fine. Would probably be a fair way off the first team though.

I have to agree, most players we have been linked with appear to be for development not to fit in to the first team squad never mind the first 11. We may have some players of the quality needed to improve the attacking quality we are hoping for we just have to hold on a little and see what transpires.

A mate of mine who knows what's what at Ipswich has said for us to get hold of this lad the asking price is around £600k. Say the following.
Definitely has the physical attributes to compete, technically not bad and does score. Did well on loan at Swindon for the first half of last season. Think he is poorly advised which has led to him being on the way out of the club.
He's not slow but also not blisteringly quick.
Rates him as a young striker but says its one of those that could either take off and be a big hit or flop.

We need to back ourselves with these moves.

Nobody gets them all right for all sorts of reasons.

Seems very low risk at that price, could likely get a few 100k even if he wasnt up to it here

I think the key point is that it doesn't say 'Ipswich are open to a swap' (inferring that there is confirmed interest / pursuit), but that the original article (East Anglian Times) speculates that "Ipswich could yet use him as part of a sweetener in a part-exchange deal" from any one of "plenty of suitors".
There's a subtle, but important difference. And it means nothing as that could apply to any interest.
Its the difference between a lead/leak and speculation/bullshit.

Looks like a bit of a rehash of the link from earlier this summer does that. Town do really like him though so if he becomes available I imagine they'll make a move. Alternatively they could wait til he's out of contract next summer. Long term target with moving variables that one.

Do you think Championship Football is a bridge too far for him right now? (having only played for 6 months in L2) I suspect the real reason Town like him is because he'll come cheap.

I have a few spies here n there. They like him, which doesn't necessarily mean we're 100% going to sign him but he's of interest. Just like Hudlin was and Jessie Debrah is for example. There's always lots of moving pieces and it's all about timing to get the best deal when any other interested clubs are looking the other way. At this moment Simpson would be 3rd/4th choice (depending on whether they find a loan for Phillips) and a B team project but one they would hope they could turn around relatively quickly like they did with Sorba and Russell. I know signing B team players isn't always exciting, but they've got a job on persuading someone to come in when Danny Ward and Jordan Rhodes are both high end earners and both performed pretty well last season, they're in the box seat to start. The money or wage structure isn't there to bring in a high class first choice striker either atm unless Dean changes his mind on budgets. On the flipside to that, having Ward contracted til 2023 let's them plan accordingly ot try get a B team player up to speed. They spend a lot of money on Canalside so projects like what Simpson/Hudlin would be are important to it and the future. Yeah they'll cost less than what Ellis Simms would have done but playing a slightly longer game might heed the same results in the end. Fingers crossed anyway.

Whilst most of football has a time horizon of 3 months (and that’s being generous), we can look 12 - 18 months out and find players who don’t fit what the impatient clubs are falling over themselves to get.

Couldn't agree more.
Sensible, patient and intelligent planning by the club.
When you read the floods of tears on here because someone hasn't played as well as hoped for 60mins, or a high profile player has not been signed, just a shame these traits are not more widely found in the more vocal element of the support base.

Given the turnover of director of football - moss, rebbe, Webb all left within a few months before we settled on bromby then you could say that logic has also applied in the boardroom for too long.
