Was that just the 'Banter Era' or 'Peak Banter Era"?

I still maintain that Ward wasn't a bad player. He was just in a very bad team.

Blimey that first tweet makes it even worse, what a horrible time to support this club that was. Not sure I saw a worse player for us than Hawkins, tells you exactly where we were going under Evans.

Here's the thing - without those times it was horrible to support the Club we wouldn't really be able to appreciate where we are now.

100%.

Brings me back to a question I've asked before, if you could go back in time to the 2015 play offs and change the result so we got to the final (and won it), would you?

With the benefit of knowing what's happened since, I don't think many would.

I also certainly appreciated England's success in 2018 and 2021 more because of the dross served up by Town over that period.

The club should hold back our next three signings to announce them at the same time and recreate this epic photo

Ward had been a decent player but he was 35 & hadn't played much in his 2 previous seasons.

I'm not rising to that one

It's 106 miles to Portman Road, we've got a full tank of gas, half a round of Port Salut, it's dark... and we're wearing blue tinted sunglasses.

I often think back to that triple signing as one of the low points showing just how far we have come since under our new ownership.

It was so frustrating that we would not invest in young players, whom we may have later sold for profit. Ward was 35, as was Chambers, so in some matches our full backs had a combined age of 70.

Hawkins had been released by Portsmouth and went on to score one goal for us.
