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.

I really don't consider it entitlement. I consider it holding the club to account in some way.


and in what way are you holding them to account ?

theyre doing the best they can imo, which at the moment isnt far off where we actually want to be at this stage, it would be nice if the fans were doing the best they can as well, but clearly our opinions diverge on that point :)

'Holding the club to account' just sounds so, um... what's the word?

'Polarising', probably, in the sense that when I reflect on what I said it's a bit too much, and when I reflect on your 'Reasonable?' I think "Hmm. Not unreasonable".

And yet holding the club in third place to account does seem a bit pompous and entitled to me, even though I do feel the same frustrations that I'm sure every other town fan is feeling - we should be doing better.

I don't really know what to think.

I do think the nature of 'support' has changed a bit over the decades, but that probably reflects society and culture as much as anything, and of course is magnified greatly by online discourses such as this.

COYB is all I can say.

I certainly believe we are a long way away from where we want to be, but calling another person a wànkèr because they have a different football opinion on a forum is absolutely wild.

Spot on. Loads of entitled fans this season.

Obviously they will kick back on you with this post. Entitled fans are the first to moan they aren't allowed an opinion, but then moan you're not allowed an opinion that they are entitled. That's how it works on a forum, they are allowed an opinion, your not.

Well done, nothing wrong with highlighting entitlement.

The counter argument is that this “gee, golly gosh, we’re little ol’ Ipswich and we’re just happy to be here” stance as seen very often last season in the prem is precisely what’s holding us back. There absolutely should be pressure and expectations on players and management. The game has changed now. Our owners are ambitious. Sleepy Suffolkians need to wake up.
