Not so long ago this forum used to scoff at the sense of entitlement shown by fans of other clubs. Now anyone visiting thhe forum would think what a load of entitled w-nkers our supporters are.

Given the OP demanded Mick do so much more when we had sweet FA it's more than a bit rich to say the least.

It's weird how all of these posters slag off fans first and foremost isn't it?

….to watch the team, but don’t you dare slag off the people getting paid to play in the team.

This forum is the worst place for it.

Crikey. You have got a better memory than me. I will admit to being critical of McCarthy’s style of football, but recognise that the funding he got from Evans was inadequate. Both you and Bloots were around when McCarthy was manager. Would you rather watch thenfootball played by his teams or the present one?

You didn't at the time, which is interesting now. As is you suggesting you don't remember it then trying to minimise it all in the same sentence.

I'll watch Ipswich no matter what, it's not a preference thing at all. But the hypocrisy of posts like this is astounding.

….play different styles.

That’s hardly a shocking surprise is it?

Calling our fans “wa*kers” because they think we should be doing better than we are, considering the players and investment at our disposal is the issue here.

I am responding to what I consider to be an unwarranted level of criticism of the current situation . If the term w-nkers offends you then I apologise. I think a bit more patience could be shown . If we fail to reach the play offs this year then I will feel very disappointed, and the criticism being aimed now would then be justified.

There was sufficient patience shown during last year’s embarrassment when we were told that we couldn’t compete due to financial factors. The shoe is now on the other foot and we should be top of the league based on the same financial factors that made it acceptable for us to go down without a whimper. So now, patience has run out

With the up most respect, that is total rubbish.

We have assembled a hugely expensive squad and often watch us pretty much forgo playing in the first half in the hope our "finishers" will come on to get the job done. We are watching expensive players either totally under preform, or show only 1 or 2 moments of quality. It isnt good enough, and is the reason we are 5 points off 2nd spot.

We aren't playing anywhere near the level we should be, and its being called out. I believe that to be perfectly acceptable, as long as its done in a constructive manner.

I'd be shocked, if not devastated, if our own manager its nipping his hair out at what is currently on offer. He has exceptionally high standards, and he'll not be close to happy

Nothing offends me. But your hypocrisy and attempts to slag people off says a lot about you and the others doing it.

People pretending this place is abyss of anger and hatred so they can get a pat on the back and divide people more is very tiresome.

Expectations change when significant cash has been invested into the team - who would have thought that? Truly shocking behaviour. But no, let’s call it entitled. Utter bollox.

I don’t think it was actually that we couldn’t compete financially in the Premier. It was more that our sudden rise left us generally ill prepared.

Not that you are doing exactly the same thing, but on the other side of the argument.

Perhaps grab yourself a dictionary and look up hypocrisy.

Your lack of self awareness is stunning.

Look forward to your smart arse response, dont forget I once posted about a match I didn't watch, as you love history so much.

As circumstances change, which they have given the journey we went on over 3 rapid years, expectations rightfully changed, that is directly from KMc himself.

The reality is we would want to be not only delivering really high quality consistent performances at this level with the investments and recourses available, the objective would be to pushing along with the pace setters, if not be the pace setters ourselves.

We are short of where we want and need to be, the club will know that and will be looking to address that themselves. To suggest otherwise is unfortunately delusional and more of a hinderance than helpful.

Perfectly understandable progression isn’t a straight line, but equally understandable to acknowledge where current issues are that need to be addressed to help us find the path again to where we want to be, on a football forum.

By calling people w@nkers and demanding they do as you say? Interesting tactic there how does that work exactly?

How much more patient do we all need to be so we can all live harmoniously under your approval?

Literally more threads calling out ‘moaners’ than actual ‘moaners’. I’d say it’s these threads ruining the forum and creating division rather than posters offering their opinion that we are underperforming.

It’s bizarre.

Mate, theres no point arguing with Mullet. His opinion is the correct one, its in the sites terms and conditions, especially subsection c, which permits the use of history even if the accuracy is somewhat sketchy.

Also, hes allowed to accuse you of exactly the same thing he continues to do, whilst he will pick a specific part of your post to try to belittle you.

I know, ive been there many many times.

Plenty of people on here (myself included) turning up at PR to cheer the team on, whilst at the same time identifying that we are not hitting the levels we ought to be with the resources at our disposal.

Not really necessary to call long term fans w⚓️ because they thing we ought to be picking up more points than the likes of Hull who aren’t even allowed to sign players for a number of windows. I doubt KM, Ashton, or the owners are particularly satisfied with this season. Not sure why it’s frowned upon to say so.

Those whose patience has run out do look faintly ludicrous though, given that we’re 3rd, 5 points off 2nd and with half a season still to go.
