JET: Fans Shouldn't Be Stressed Over Pre-Season - Ipswich Town News
Town midfielder Jay Emmanuel-Thomas has urged fans not to be too stressed about pre-season, despite the Blues having lost 2-0 to Luton on Saturday. The former Arsenal man says he expects “big things” coming Town’s way when the season proper begins.
The 21-year-old said: "This season I can feel big things coming our way #TractorBoyz.”
He added: "Twitter is hilarious the things people say on here lol #Unbelievable.”
"Living outside your means #NotCool,” he continued, presumably making reference to criticism of Town's lack of spending so far this summer.
The former England U17 and U19 international says fans oughtn't to get too concerned over pre-season results: "Some fans worry me, stop stressing over pre-season and f****** support your team properly while we prepare for the start of the season #Mugs”
After some negative comment regarding that tweet, he added: "99% of fans understood the tweet, there’s just 1% that can’t seem to think and just be sensible about it #LeaveItYeah.
"I will soon stop interacting with fans and be like some others ballers and just ignore the tweets I get. And then who will the mugs talk to? lol.”
