I’d love to hear from those who worked tirelessly for it, those who work boots on the ground around Ipswich day in day out regardless of their persuasion. What do they make of this Farage visit and the media Reform have put out?
How many times have local people been given a voice by the club to see this happen now?
Our owners must be staggered by the reaction too. I can forgive them for not understanding the implication, but surely they can’t ignore this. The club is the centre of the town effectively, and if the judging panel discounts the award on the Town because of the connotations of a Reform connection, then that’s a massive blow to those who worked tirelessly so hard for Ipswich isn’t it?
Given Morsy was posting tirelessly about Palestine and some of the ownership supposedly questioned this and voiced disquiet about it, surely this is worse? Farage has openly been antisemitic for decades and aligned himself with antisemites across Europe and the Atlantic.
Likewise we have had refugees as guests and part of the foundation programmes haven’t we? There is a hell of a lot of community bridges potentially burned in the wake of this stunt isn’t there?
I guess the only silver lining is that Farage picked 10 and not 88 to have on our shirt. |  |

I don’t need to, nor would I want to get into a pissing context with someone making stuff up and presenting their opinion as facts.
You’re wrong on this is all. |
If the sponsors, who keep this club going, were even remotely as concerned as you are making out, the club would have apologised.
The fact that club did not apologise as well as the fact that not a single sponsor has said anything probably means you are making this out to be a little bit more than this is.
Please do feel free to add context though, I'd be fascinated to hear it. |  | | |
