Only a few seats remaining |  |

No real surprise that anyone connected with Norwich was enjoying Evans tying a hand behind our back. [Post edited 15 Sep 2022 20:40]

Yeah, that. But then I also suspect Sutton would be a c-unit even if he had never heard of Norwich. |  |

Emphasising the transformation from the "when we we're playing hoofball under Mick Mac in front of 16k!" days and the toxicity of those games and the feeling around the club. I think it was actually 15k Town fans demand exciting passing football, and some sustained attack... that's the first rule |  |

Ironically, we were much better at attacking under Mick than we were the two blokes that followed him and the two blokes who preceded him. [Post edited 15 Sep 2022 22:42]

I wonder if at this time of reflection whether Evans has acknowledged to himself that he was a total and utter failure here and took the club back twenty years. Answering my own own question, probably not. Some Town fans still think he wasn’t to blame for the rot. |  | |  |

15k inc season tickets, who didn't go. More like 11/12k bums on seats. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Probably only 12 - 13k on Saturdays and 10 or 11k on night games. It was proper dire looking back. |  | |  |

Worth mentioning that it's great winning despite the opposition and league you're in. You don't lose the feeling do you? When that second goal went in the other night I wasn't immediately thinking "yeah, but we're in League 1 and Bristol aren't exactly great" I like watching entertaining football and I certainly like winning. Maybe, maybe "careful what you wish for" can actually be forgotten. |  | |  |

On the subject of ex-Budgie summarisers, I was listening to R5 the other evening when Norwich were playing Brizzle, and they cut to the reporter at the game who gave a score update. When they cut back to the main game's commentator, he pointed out that as well as Norwich going well in the Champ, Ipswich were top of the division in L1. Dion Dublin (summariser in question) promptly cut in and said "I only heard one team then". |  |

For a couple of seasons. Then he abandoned the high press, sacked off Stephen Hunt, and went "solid". |  | |  |

16k?!!! That’s pushing it. At least 4K of those came dressed as blue seats. |  | |  |
Pompey crowd to be 28k+ - just remarkable on 20:53 - Sep 16 with 1261 views | geg1992 | I think there are still thousands of tickets still to be released - not sure what they're waiting on. I don't remember seeing any of the restricted view tickets for sale? Also most of the sir alf upper (upper part) was never put up for sale - perhaps part of the donation tickets so they reserved these until nearer the time? |  |

The worst thing was how many fans started to just give up, lose connection with the club, leave season tickets unfilled Sadly some have never come back But the good news is, we are now playing football temps Ipswich way and fans are streaming back Don’t listen to the bollox about different levels and lack of funding The bottom line is, no matter what level Ipswich Town play, Premier League to National League… we come to Portman Road to watch a team trying to entertain, to attack, not play anti-football End of |  |
