4 times Ipswich Town got it massively wrong in the transfer window
Taking a look at some of the biggest transfer flops at Ipswich
Ipswich Town has had mixed success in the transfer window, with some signings not living up to expectations.
Ivar Ingimarsson and Nathan Ellington were past their prime when they joined Ipswich and had little impact during their short stints at the club.
Tamas Priskin and Finidi George were high-profile signings that failed to deliver, with Priskin managing only one league goal and George unable to help the club avoid relegation.
Ipswich Town have had some ups and downs in the transfer window over the years.
The Tractor Boys look as though they have got their player recruitment very much right this season, with them flying high towards the top of the Sky Bet Championship.
Indeed, they are a side with plenty of talent and ability right now, but they’ve not always had hit after hit in the transfer window.
Here, then, we’re looking at four times Ipswich got in wrong in the market…
var Ingimarsson
The Icelandic defender joined Ipswich with his best years behind him, with him joining on a free transfer from Reading in the summer of 2011.
At Reading, he proved something of a cult hero with close to 300 appearances being made but his time at Ipswich was far shorter in duration, with him playing just eight times for the Tractor Boys before moving on.
Indeed, he left the club in early 2012 to bring down the curtain on his time in Suffolk, after what was a fairly forgettable half year or so.
