The start of a new and successful era. We need to be patient because Shef Utd will, no doubt, try to frustrate us, like Derby did. I think HMS Pish The League sets sail tomorrow evening. |  |

The lack of patience that is creeping in to the fans I find far more concerning than anything else at the moment. We play best when the ground is entirely with the team.
There's been a lot of anxiety in our home games, and that does spill onto the pitch. We need to get off to a good start, an early goal would be ideal. But if the frustration starts to creep in again, with groans on misplaced passes or when the ball travels back, we might find it a tougher night than it should be.
Hopefully 2-0 by half time and everyone can relax. |  |

It's more anxiety than impatience.
After two decades with very few bright spots, the club has finally had a fairly brief period of consistent sunshine. Last season, the rain came again and people are desperate for the summer not to be over yet. They are fearful the carefully-worked spell has been broken - hence the fretting over the old team disbanding and some of the back-room sorcerer's apprentices moving on to other jobs.
We are repeatedly told that this is the best chance Ipswich has for rejoining the Premier League. Which has morphed into a desperation as if it were the only chance. After four games, in 20th place with no wins and three points, some fans can feel it slipping away, that results show up our squad strength and spending power as a mirage. It's hard to feel patience when the sensation is of scrabbling with finger-tips at the edge of a cliff.
The above is not how I feel at this point, but I can see where people are coming from. We need wins to get things rolling, but, until then, we also need to help hold up those whose morale is battered and fragile. [Post edited 11 Sep 11:47]

Boll@cks to the battered and fragile. We're all walking wounded at the moment.
But get behind the team. Let them know we have belief and confidance even if they dont.
That is the way to break out from our current position. |  | | |
