What's your personal highlight of the Banter Era? For me, the way Delaney told Jewell he was off to live in New York and needed to be let go, and then turned up at Palace a month or so later and enjoyed a promotion and a long career in the top flight. I also like very much the fact Jewell signed Ingimarsson (sp) simply because they were at the same resort on holiday at the same time and Ingi did of course turn out to be an absolute knacker of a player. Also the gangsters arriving at Playford Rd looking for Chopra. What are yours?

Hello old friend!
Indeed.
Are we allowed to add Macauley Bonne's miss tonight?
I really feel for him. A Town fan and he is going to feel dreadful about that. He did at least create the chance himself with a super run and chip over the keeper. I think the ball spun so that it bounced up higher and more suddenly than he expected, preventing him heading it from the position he was in and allowing their keeper (who did very well there) to come back and save it.

Fair to say Bonne redeemed himself after that miss. There’s no sign of the banter era clearing off though.

One of the best threads in TWTD history, but I do wish we could stop adding to it.
Here we are again

Just for the records, 2-0 away to Barrow with a first half performance so utterly awful, that a dreadful second half performance passed as an improvement.
I keep imagining that Pet Shop Boys music video with images of people like Hurst, Lambert, Cook, Coke, Best, Bennetts, Harrop etc etc as the faces of the girls. Nightmares incoming tonight.

I see no one has added getting massively excited about loads of signings in the Summer - "best time to be a Town fan since the Robson years" - and completely ignoring the precedents of the last two Summers we made lots of changes - 2009 and 2018.
With a new manager about to come in and another statue completing the Holy Trinity at Portman Road I think now would be a great time to call and end to the banter era and have this thread locked.
Do it Chico. You refused when Hurst came in. You refused when Gamechangers bought us.

We lost to Barrow on the telly last night my brother. I’m sorry but we are still in the Banter Era.
