Makin: I Was Wrong
Former Ipswich Town defender Chris Makin has admitted he made a mistake when he left Town in the summer and joined Leicester.
The 31-year-old returned to Portman road for the first time since leaving in the summer on Saturday playing for his new side Leicester City.
Makin: “I had my reasons (for leaving). Sometimes you make decisions in life
and they don't work out and this is one of them.
“I can't say I regret
it. I made a decision and I have to back myself but you have to look at all the
facts now and see it hasn't worked out.
“It is all ifs and buts and I have come back here playing for Leicester.
Ipswich are top of the league and I get substituted. But you just have to get on
with it – there is no point in moaning about what has gone.
“It is one of
those things in football, you have to take the bad with the good.
“I have
to sort myself out, you never know in football what will happen.
“He (Craig Levein) is the manager he makes the decisions, and he can do
that.
“My future here doesn't look promising but you have to accept that
is part of football.”
Makin who got a less than warm reception when his name was announced over the
PA or when ever he touched the ball but he insists that is what he expected and
that chants that we cannot repeat on STB were false as he took a pay-cut to join
Leicester and added: “It was good. It was as I expected and not a problem. I
enjoyed the banter and it made for a good atmosphere.
“It was nothing to
do with money. I took a pay cut to go to Leicester, so all that calling me
greedy was not right, you need to know the full facts.
“The fans gave it
to me both barrels but I have had a lot worse than that at various
clubs.
“There are a lot of good supporters here at Ipswich Town, I know
that, I have experienced that this weekend so I'm not worried about that.”
