For all those trying to twist the 70/30 McCarthy out brigade, just see what the attendance will be this Saturday against Hull. This will show you how the majority want a new man in charge of Ipswich, regardless of what Evans will throw in the pot next season.
I will be attending whatever the result but there are many many fans who will not return to Portman Road until we have a new leader. |  | | |  |

If Mick stays I won't be renewing our two adult STs. Burton game was final straw for me. 33yrs a ST holder & my daughter for 10yrs. Bored of micks tactics, his "doing us a favour" attitude & to all those "be careful what you wish for" brigade I say I wish for a manager who can rise above the anti manager chants and treat the position of manager of this great club with a bit of respect, prove people wrong with your football. I'd take McGreal or Mowbray , let's unite the fanbase again. Don't be told this is as good as it gets. I'll miss my usual seat, but I'll survive and do more away trips. |  | | |

Carayol May be a part of the jigsaw we have been missing a pacey winger/ wideman
His looked electric from the highlights and he was ill
Something we really have been missing |  | | |

Why do people who say we are boring then say they’ll do more away games when quite legitimately we’re more likely to go with a more defensive approach. Plus the fact you’re then giving more money to the competion rather than the club you supposedly support? |  | | |

Maybe because of the negative and boring home performances we have seen over the past 2 seasons. | | | |

Away trips tend to be better atmospheres, it's not just the football. A day on the road and (usually) singing for my team till I'm hoarse. If some fans want to keep pouring good money after bad into MEs pocket, that's their choice. I've decided no more. | | | |

So you’d rather finance the competition than the club you supposedly support. Strange. | | | |

The majority wanted Pulis out and look at WBA now.
Fact of the matter is we as fans want the absolute world. Is our expectation of ITFC just?
Sidenote - if Mick moves on I'm sure we'll move forward, but do we really think the WBA lot who were delighted to get Pulis sacked - with them NOT IN the relegation zone have a clue?
End of the day, if we're winning games people will go mate. Look at us vs Charlton 14/15, over 26,000 there that day.
If Mick goes, sure, the gates will fly up to start with. Then if results are crap, many will leave....... [Post edited 25 Feb 2018 18:23]

But those WBA fans would probably argue that whilst they may be in a better position had Pulis stayed, for what? Another season of dull, uninspiring football just targeting 40 points...I think most of them had got to the point where they were happy to take the gamble, much like Mick here | |

I won’t be renewing either. By doing so I feel I’ll be sending a message to Evans that all is good. It’s not. The relationship between manager and fans is at an all time low. If the so call actual attendance Wednesday is accurate then Evans ought to wake up. Will he? Doubt it. | | | |

Being in the top tier,,,
maybe beating Man Utd / Chelsea at home.......
not playing teams like Burton this season.....
having some very decent players on their books.....
Surely you'd rather be in the prem every single season under Pulis, than trying to win the lottery and get out of the championship?
When are people going to realise football isn't snowboarding, you don't get points for triangle football etc...
It's not rugby where you get an extra point for tries. | | | |

To tell you the truth, and i dont miss many home or away, we play the same way nearly every game,home of away. Even though we switch from 4 at the back to 3 sometimes the emphasis is always we hold what we have got even when its 0-0. Yesterday for once we did get the balance between attack and defence about right . That something we have not really done since the first few games of the season. Imo. |  | | |

The majority of fans still go to games, I'm not sure why everyone so obsessed with attendances.
When Mick was appointed manager, our average attendance in Jewells final season was 18,328 and last year it was 16,981 - so it has dropped less than 1,500 in Mick's 6 years which isn't bad really.
In the 5 seasons previous to that it had dropped from 22,445 to 18,328 so 4,000 fans in less time - Mick hasn't really done that bad all things considered has he? |  |

To be in any away end supporting ITFC it’s inevitable you’ll be financing the other club but that’s the way it is. I’ve enjoyed some of the best atmosphere at namely Fulham and Charlton in recent seasons. | | | |

And a gamble is just that. You are more likely to lose at gambling. Just a thought. |  | | |

Not knocking your numbers but can’t help feel mildly amused that for someone asking the question ‘why does everyone seem so obsessed with attendances?’ you sure seem obsessed with attendances!! | | | |

You miss the point aswell
Those WBA may not feel they’ve lost the gamble, even if they go down. Similarly those Town fans who have long had enough of Micks football won’t see it as a gamble, as if they’re not enjoying what they’re watching then it can’t get much worse for them | |

That's your choice - as it is every fans choice
Ipswich Til I Die - don't think that applies to you though. Maybe 'Ipswich Again when I Feel like It' is more appropriate? |  |

You may not feel the same after 7-odd years of finishing 12th, downing tools as soon as you get to 40 points, and playing the flat back 9 against the big boys... | |
