Exactly. The club could give a statement at 9am this morning and there's a new story that emerges at 9:30am and people start demanding a response to that.
We have to live with uncertainty. Let's say the situation is that KM has been offered another improved contract by Ipswich but there's serious interest from Brighton and he wants to speak with them before deciding. A perfectly reasonable stance for everybody to be taking. You're not going to get a statement from the club saying that's what is happening. As I said before, Ashton has just said there will be lots of speculation, we will hear from the club when there is something concrete to tell us. We're not going to hear about every stage along the way. |

Premier League clubs don't give out statements confirming or otherwise reports in the press and social media regarding their staff. It would be chaos. Literally days ago the CEO gave an interview saying there will be all sorts of speculation and we should take it with a pinch of salt, when there are some facts to give us we will hear about it then. I'm sure McKenna and a lot of the coaches and players will have other offers to consider, that's football. |

Of when you discover a band in the back room of a pub. They're really good and they start to play better venues and you're pleased for them. But now they've had a couple of hit singles and they're on the radio all the time and they're about to announce a big tour that will be a sell out. This intimate little thing you love will become something else and you're really happy but also slightly put out.
I've realised it's going to be harder to get tickets and more expensive. I'm going to have people at work telling me we're rubbish instead of asking me how we got on at the weekend and giving a snort when I say we beat Morecombe. |

Yes, a lot of that season was behind closed doors wasn't it? I remember sitting watching on the laptop on my own wondering why I was bothering. Wasn't there some dross from Evans about how there was good stuff happening but we couldn't appreciate it because we didn't get the full picture as we weren't in the ground?!?! |

This is going to be difficult to work out for the club. Many people have to work weekends or have family/caring issues which means a season ticket is out of the question but they have been regular attenders when they are free. Personally I've been going to whatever game there is when I haven't been working, whether that is League One or Championship or whatever. I am now facing a more expensive membership (I guess) and the prospect of fewer games as getting hold of tickets will be harder. |

The only thing I can say to those that disagree with it is to just see clapping the coach into the stadium as the same as clapping the players onto the pitch because that's all it is. It obviously wouldn't be going ahead without getting the nod from the club. |

I find it strange that this simple and obvious point has to be explained again.
In the Ashton and McKenna interview the club put out a while ago KM brought up the coach welcome against Norwich without being asked about it, saying it was another great bonding moment between the team and the fans. |

Why are supporters being supportive? Yes, wouldn't it be better if nobody came to watch at all? Certainly hope nobody turns up wearing a replica shirt or an ITFC scarf. |

Reply | Couldn't be prouder of the team
at 12:18 28 Apr 2024
I think what I'm most proud of is that we're doing things properly, with integrity. In modern football it's a bit like taking a peashooter to a gunfight and somehow still winning. Not breaking all the financial rules, not being funded by dodgy money, not coaching our players to throw themselves to the floor every time there's contact in the box. Of course, if we go up next season we'll struggle to compete with teams and get patronised over and over again by pundits that overlook all the above... |

Such patronising comments from Dixon. Man U score a deflected goal and it's, you can see the extra quality, he gets lucky with the finish but... Coventry score a deflected goal and it's , that could've gone anywhere but you'll take it |

I think the attitude shown by both Watford and Middlesbrough shows how good we are and how well respected in the game we are. I wish some of our fans could see it. Really good Championship teams are unwilling to get into a full on footballing battle because they fear they would lose. |

We've been closer to winning than losing both games. Of course two draws is very frustrating but it's the same for Leeds and Leicester. It's very very tense for all of us. All the success we've had has come from doing the right things over and over again, knowing that it won't always get you the result in the short term but sticking to the method will pay off in the long run. |

I think this is a very good point. Looking at the stats from this weekend's matches we had 21 shots, Leeds 19 and Leicester 17. A total of 57 shots produced 1 goal. We all had more possession and a higher xG than our opponents. These are exactly the sort of figures that have been produced all season but the rub of the green hasn't been there. |
