Yep. Really felt like a significant moment tonight in terms of the crowd's relationship with this team. Felt like a very Ipswich reaction to Sam. Was great that he got that reception. Really pleased that he got an ovation when he warmed up and a burst of his song. And clapped on when he came on. Classy. But the blue army just after the clap had a bit of an edge to it Felt like we finally put the ghosts of 23/24 to rest and now this is our team. [Post edited 20 Jan 22:59]

A "burst" of his song? Disappointingly, that's probably the loudest I've heard at least the part of PR I'm in this season. I wonder what those singing that would have done if he had scored. |  |

Ah cheer up! He's a back to back promotion winning captain. Was great to sing his song for one final time with him on the pitch. And I say that as someone who thinks our crowd needs to liven up! But atmosphere was better tonight. |  | |  |

Sorry disagree. For any time an ex-player is on the pitch he is an opposition player. It really is that simple. And "cheer up". Perhaps when those who berate the lack of atmosphere at the ground put as much effort into supporting the current team as those who sang Morsy's song when he came on. |  |

I'm about to spend the entire month of February on the train to support the team! We won and Morsy got the reception he deserved. Win win I think. |  | |  |

He joined us at our lowest ebb and played a massive role in dragging the club right back up. He gave us some of the best memories and moments we’ve had for a generation. It’s not a lot to ask to give the bloke a bit of love in what’s reasonably likely to be his last ever appearance at PR when we didn’t get the chance to do it in the summer. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

The clapping was fine. Though, McKenna was not happy with the fans singing his song when he warmed up - a proper shake of the head when that started. |  | |  |

Yep, this - I didn’t want to applaud him, but I don’t begrudge anyone else choosing to applaud the homophobe. Their choice, innit! |  | |  |

I’m pleased he got a good reception. He deserved it and I wish him well. It’s done now and hopefully it lays to rest that exciting team. The fun it gave me cannot be taken away or his part in it, but it’s all about the current team and the future now. |  | |  |
| Morsy benched on 07:49 - Jan 21 with 509 views | Kieran_Knows | I was surprised last night, I have to say. Knowing this fan base, I thought we’d have spent 90 minutes singing his song. Instead he got a nice applause as he warmed up, little rendition of his song but as soon as he stepped foot on the pitch, I even heard people jeering him which I quite liked to be honest. Aside from that, I love Morsy as much as the next person, but I thought he looked a bit of an old man out there last night. Looked slow in his play and didn’t think his passing was as crisp as it was when he was here. Appreciate he’s not played much football in 6 months, but I had expected a bit more from him when he came on. |  |

More or less ‘disgraceful’ as masking homophobia behind religious belief? |  | |  |

If you’re going to make serious allegations like that you need to provide st least a shred of evidence. |  |

It’s been discussed to death before - it’s totally fine that you and the majority don’t consider Morsy’s actions to expose any level of homophobia, it’s your perogotive- but for me, hiding behind religion when he’s previously been fine to wear shirts with betting sponsorship on, shows a level of flexibility in his religion I.E he actively chooses how/when to apply elements of it (as is his perogotive) he made the active choice to draw the line with showing any kind of visibility/support of the LGBTQ community - that’s a discriminatory choice and as such, homophobic. But each to their own, I forgot he was playing after everyone got all dewy eyed, until Young told him to f**ck off. [Post edited 21 Jan 10:37]
