The season is over for Ipswich Town. Before focusing on the Premier League, the players and supporters will celebrate their promotion, but this Championship campaign still has one more twist to come.

After defying the odds to earn back-to-back promotions, Kieran McKenna’s team had an amazing season. Their return to the Premier League was ensured with a victory over Huddersfield Town on the penultimate day at Portman Road.

Considering their resources in relation to the two teams that were relegated from the Premier League the previous season, finishing above teams like Southampton and Leeds United was quite an accomplishment for the Tractor Boys. However, that is just what transpired, setting off crazy scenes in Suffolk, where the festivities are undoubtedly still going strong! But defender Woolfenden brought up Goodman during the open-top bus tour around the town, saying the pundit predicted Ipswich would finish in “mid-table.”

Don Goodman addresses charges made by Luke Woolfenden Speaking to FLW through OLBG, however, Goodman reconsidered his remarks regarding Ipswich. Let us examine it in chronological order. I said both teams might aspire for the play-offs, which most Ipswich supporters would have been content with at the time, starting with Sunderland away on the opening day. After that game, I chatted with Kieran McKenna, and he mentioned how difficult they found it.

They started off strong, and I was always complimenting them, but after winning one, drawing six, and losing two games, they went into a nine-game slump. Everyone started writing Leeds off since they were closing the gap. However, I declined and emphasised how challenging that stretch of games had been—matches against Norwich, Leeds, West Brom, and Leicester (twice), all of whom ended in the top six. Again, flattering, I also predicted them to bounce back in their subsequent run of games against bottom-half teams, which they had generally defeated and had not lost to. I couldn’t help but scratch my head and wonder, “What has upset him?”
