… of Sutton Hoo will you answer the clarion call? Will your vocal sword add to the McKenna armoury? A doomsday weapon of technically empowered adversity slaying culture. Over the Waveney they will flow - like a diseased plague of mutant inbred Orks - hot yellowy liquid* frothing from their snaggle toothed mouths. Will we stand tall? Our silvery blue armour shimmering in the midday winter sun. Pure bred Suffolk (and in some cases North Essex) battalions, drawn from the sea and the field, the very shingle of the Shingle Street – Stowmarket, Lowestoft, Lavenham, Woodridge (chic armour, very chic), Bury St Edmunds, Felixstowe, all the IPs, Beccles, Dallinghoo, Woolpit, Eye… yes they will come, they will march to the sceptred temple, the holiest of places – Portman Road – our fortress, our mecca. (*yes, its mustard) As brothers, sisters, fathers, sons (but not married to each other, like you know, our visitors) we will STAND – not sit, with tartan rugs, and a thermos (yes you Block C) – arms interlocked, our blue livery fluttering in the wind that surges from the glistening Orwell. And as our cherished warriors emerge something remarkable shall happen, an epiphany, a moment – the Churchmans will LEAD a song – ‘Barclays Falling, All Around Us, Ipswich Playing, Having Fun, It’s the season, Back to back promotions, Merry Christmas, Norwich Scum’ – a song taken up by ALL – relentless, a cacophony, like the sirens call, deranging the opposition players and their banshee half-cut leader. And as if audibly signalled, from the North Stand flank a huge emblem, a dazzling standard, shall be raised aloft – BLUE ACTION assemble. And battle shall commence, oh yes it will – and we, the privileged few with the golden ticket, will go into a higher state of blue being - CAN YOU FEEL IT - my blue brothers and sisters - CAN YOU SEE IT - for our Blue Elysium awaits us.. 13 years of darkness, of Norfolk's Mordor shadow - BUT NO LONGER - if you commit yourself, your very lungs, your very minds, your very being… WE SHALL PREVAIL… by the mystic powers of Giovani Dos Santos (yes its been that long) THIS IS OUR TIME. Be the 12th man/woman, repay the beautiful gift McKenna, Chaplin, Morsy, Hladky et al have given you. BELIEVE. SCREAM!!!!!
