Before the game I was willing to regard it as, if not exactly a clean slate, then a chance to get a good result with a fit & freshened-up squad and give ourselves a pathway to salvaging the season regardless of who is or isn't manager.
Didn't happen, did it (though after the half-hour I could only half-watch so correct me if I missed anything). No point raking over it all; yes Posh knew the pitch but we were completely outplayed after the first 20 minutes and so the familiar cycle begins yet again.
Lambert not doing the media has infuriated me. I usually have a pretty thick skin for this stuff. But this is the worst Ipswich team of our lives, the worst situation the club has ever been in, and to duck the local media week in, week out is utterly abysmal behaviour. Insulting and uncalled for. Disrespecting the community and town he set such great stock in early on. Everyone should be disgusted.
What the hell are he, Evans and the club thinking? It just gets worse and worse, to the extent I'm pretty much beyond words.

The whole thing is such a mess. I'm trying just to be numb to it at this point because otherwise I'd be absolutely losing my sh!t about it.
As Joe says, Lambert clearly doesn't want to be here. The only time we hear from him now is when he's telling the national press how great Celtic are or that we really shouldn't be playing football and it should just be cancelled. Great message to send out that. He just wants a pay off now and knows this will be his last gig in football. Evans either can't or won't pay him off for now so we seem to be at a stand off.
You've had a lot more patience for Lambert than many, so to see you at this point shows just how bad things have got. It isn't sustainable, in fact it's killing the club as every game that passes mires us further in this crappy league and drives more fans away. I don't think Evans fully appreciates how grave the situation is in terms of the future of the club. How many STs does he expect to sell next season with us in the third tier again post-pandemic and with Lambert still at the helm? Even with the salary cap being scrapped, any competitive advantage that might give us will be eroded if the fans all disappear. [Post edited 10 Feb 2021 10:50]

Yeah I was patient, and not always right although I don't massively regret giving it time. But it seems too far gone now, we need a massive uptick in form before season ticket renewal time otherwise we are absolutely fcuked. And that's not going to happen — we'll probably get enough wins to set us fair for ninth or 10th and, incredibly, the club seem to think that will tide everyone over.
Also I just think the optics and attitude are an absolute disgrace and utterly unbecoming of Ipswich or, indeed, any club. ITFC works when everyone is together and engaged/invested. Now that they are less so than in my lifetime, I worry massively about what lies ahead. | |
