I think that the term you are grasping for is tell and not clue.
Regardless of your sleuthing, it would be a brave man to take a bet on 'us' as the outright winners on current evidence. This was simply my line of interrogation. Am I wrong? Do things not risk descending into farce at this point?
Perhaps try and put aside getting triggered by someone with a new account having an initial post on the more negative side of things and subsequently hurling insults based on Norwich City. It's such a weak and somewhat predictable response. Itself quite farcical. [Post edited 24 Aug 2025 12:50]

How many games are necessary then in your opinion before a farce can be declared? 6, 9, 12? | | | |

The OP had one shot, one shot, to try and take us down and they wasted it on this. Very poor effort. |  | | |

Lol - are you implying that I will be banned for literally just having an opinion and wanting to share it? | | | |

No but you blew any credibility you might hope for on this obvious attempt at trolling. | | | |

It’s probably a difficult concept to understand, but seeing as you made the effort to register and troll I’ll help you.
Bookies don’t make Ipswich favourites just on a whim – they build a market. They crunch the numbers on form, squads and managers, add their margin, then let the betting shape the odds. If punters pile on Ipswich, the price shortens. The club has nothing to do with it – they don’t set the market.
And struggling in the first three games doesn’t suddenly make the bookies wrong. There are still 43 matches to play, so the bigger picture matters more than a slow start. Odds are about long-term probability, not knee-jerk reactions to a couple of dodgy results.
Your effort at trolling was pretty poor, there were so many open goals for you to try and put away to wind us up but you pretty much missed them all.
Anyhow, thanks for dropping in to say hi, it’s always reassuring to see that other fans feel threatened enough to come in, register and try to wind up, suggest we’re doing something right after all. |  | | |

None of what you have said actually changes the fact that if not now it could soon look farcical that Ipswich are favourites for the Championship.
I do appreciate some of the arguments that you raise though. [Post edited 24 Aug 2025 15:57]

Errr, yes, it might reflect poorly on the bookies or it might not. You keep missing the point that Ipswich being favourites with the bookies is irrelevant to the fans.
Appreciate your efforts but you’re really not very good at this trolling malarkey. | | | |

My thought is just after a few more games in the current vein it could start to become a farce (to others, not neccessarily the fans). That was the only point being made. [Post edited 24 Aug 2025 16:07]

If not a farce then what?!?!? As much as it may hurt to face facts things are at least somewhat at risk of descending into farce.
I do think that the team can go on a run at some point though. | | | |

I've not been fussed about whether we're favourites or not. However, I do know it's still early days and a lot of our signings haven't played yet. A lot can change in 9 games, let alone 9 months. | |
