“Hey Lee,
If it’s true and Phil has been banned, this is an incredibly tone-deaf, ludicrous decision which has backfired on you within minutes of the announcement.
They have done more for the club over the years than Mr Lambert has, and ever will do.
They maintain an unbiased, largely polite (when they are able to get to the threads quickly enough!) website, one which makes our club respectful, compared to the dross you see on other boards.
This is a bad, bad move - and you may have just burned any remaining bridges of goodwill you had left.
You seem like a decent guy from what I’ve seen and heard. This is poor.” [Post edited 28 Nov 2020 21:14]

My effort
-------------------
Incredibly disappointed at the banning of a local member of the media from the press conferences and matches.
I understand that a team was leaked, but to target the owner of the website rather than the person who leaked the team is utterly bizarre in the extreme.
You need to sort this as it is appalling PR for the club and is completely unjustified action from Paul Lambert. The team displays are bad enough on the pitch without his making things poor off the pitch too. |  |

..but lambert himself tells us that he is a strong, strong character who doesn't feel pressure and has been at some huge clubs.
...why would such a strong character ban someone who runs a forum.
...if he has banned Phil, then he has banned the biggest voice of the fans, and also shows himself to be incredibly weak. |  |

Yeah wasn’t sure or we could or not - I assume it’s public somewhere or someone guessed when they posted it the other day? | |

Quite right. They can go fook themselves if they really have banned Phil. I know he gets grumpy when people comment on his head, but he's streets ahead of many other forum owners and local hacks.
Given the building pressure anyway this would be a monumentally stupid move. |  |

Fiik. But it never bounced so that's the correct email if anyone else wishes to make their views clear. | |

eMail sent again. Also sent one to ME earlier this week. Fook em I’ve had enough now ffs
The way my club is acting at present is beyond me
Over 40 years I’ve been a fan. 40 bloody years. I’m a guy who 53 years of age and find myself for the first time ever feeling the need to demonstrate my utter annoyance.
Lambert is simply a joke. He should have gone months ago , last season even
You now ban the an owner who runs a football forum because someone supposedly leaked a line up
Continue down this road and the club will be even worse than it is now because supporters will hit Evans hard where it hurts ....his pockets !
Do the decent thing and speak to the fans |  |

Dear Lee,
I was appalled to hear that the club had banned Phil Ham - a local independent journalist who served a community of thousands of Ipswich fans for decades.
The transgression is evidently not his fault. He did not post the material and the leak came from internal sources.
I will not be spending any of my money with the club until he is formally reinstated and apologised to.
The move that the club has taken appears to be motivated by reasons other than your leak, which is disappointing and frankly shameful.
I look forward to a response that is not templated and proposes a resolution. |  |

My email gone too. Evans can fcuk himself if he thinks I am putting another penny into the club via ifollow or any other method until those jokes Lambert and Evans reinstate Phil and publicly apologise and then they can both fork off for all I care.

I sent one to everyone's favourite Supporter Liaison Officer as well.
I am seriously pissed off that it has come to this. I can't see how anyone in a position of authority in the club comes out of this with any goodwill from fans at all even when he finally sacked. It really is time to reform the Supporters Trust - although I'm sure the same old locals will try and seize power to get patted on the head by the club higher ups. |  | | |

Another e-Mail sent to Lee O,Neill but cannot see Evans losing money by breaking the ridiculous contract he has given him. Can see us staying in this League for a long while as long as Lambert plays football from the back.....we are not Man City. |  | | |

@ Phil,
You probably don't want to be associated with promoting protest emails. But it would be useful to sticky this for people that do want to. | |

I respect you are receiving a number of emails on this issue right now, however it is incredibly important to convey how poor the decision to ban TWTD from press conferences is.
I appreciate the position the club are in regarding leaks of sensitive information such as squad selection, however, this TWTD is no more culpable than Twitter and Facebook, that both host much more damaging content routinely.
Phil Ham moderates TWTD as fairly and as quickly as he can, and this decision shuts out thousands of lifelong fans and the best interests of a collection of people that are bigger than Paul Lambert, yourself, and Marcus Evans.
I respect that the overall communication towards the club has been fractious for a very long time, and I also appreciate certain views and information shared online are counter intuitive to the aims of the club. However, by clipping the wings of the fans and a dedicated servant of the club rather than investing more time and energy to help work together with us to mitigate these problems you (as a club rather than an individual) are going to stand to damage a lot more than you stand to gain.
Kind regards, WK

That's a good point. I'm not a ST holder so I never consider withholding my support. But I am buying all our game on iFollow this year (not sure who gets that money though).
I'm happy to do likewise. I'm not signing up for another game until there's an apology and he's reinstated too.
It's just so mind-numbingly stupid and counter productive at a time when we need more togetherness not more division. | |
