Pains me to say it but Norwich is a nicer place then Ipswich and Norfolk in general is a nice place, stunning beaches etc. Its just the football team although in my older years I find myself less psychotic these days when we play them. |  | |  |

Well it's been many, many years since you've had anything to celebrate! Enjoy it, it probably will be very short lived. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Norwich is a fine city, steeped in history and pubs galore. A wonderful place to live where many of my formative years were spent and i hope some of my latter ones too. But the football club is an absolute joke of a no mark team with fans so desperate to cling on to anything they can call success that they'd call a quarter final a trophy. I grew up among them, I was made, at school to sit through their European cup "run" and I was the only kid screaming for Ze Germans, I have been behind enemy lines, faced them down at school the day after we might have lost (or smiled knowingly after a Bryan Gunn air kick or an Alex Mathie inspired thrashing) and despite no longer being among them, despite having only 1 bloke at work (who is outnumbered 2 to 1) over whom I would be able to crow I have never, ever in all my life wanted to win one game of football so badly. I cannot watch the updates during the game, I can't join the chat room, I can't bare it until it's over. Please Town, I implore you slay the banter era once and for all, end the hoodo, poach the canaries, not just for Ipswich, but for the good of Football and give me something to cheer that i haven't been able to for so many years that I have lost count. Walk forward brave boys in blue, seize thine enemy and make yourselves immortal. Do this boys and you will walk with giants, you shall become part of the very fabric of history itself and we shall call it Incestpendance day. COYB [Post edited 14 Dec 2023 12:01]

Agreed. I wince at the "Norwich is a sh*thole - I wanna go home" chant at Carrow Road, knowing for many home is Ipswich. Not all bad - but it's no Norwich. |  |

While I don't particularly have any against Norwich on 11:46 - Dec 14 with 4364 views | patrickswell | Maybe, it’s because I’m getting older, but I’ve found myself reflecting that sanity comes from remembering that Norwich are our rivals and not our enemies. That being said, the fact that their streak in the derby has coincided with both the rise of social media and the Age of the Podcast, leads me to conclude that there are several prominent people in those sectors who really deserve to absorb a derby defeat on their platforms. The vibe leading up to it from them has been generally resigned and respectful of what we’ve done so far. Please let the coup de grace be administered on Saturday, so we can all move on. |  | |  |

I think Suffolk is at least on a par with Norfolk tbh, there's a lot of really sh1te parts of Norfolk and generally speaking Suffolk is a bit nicer on balance I would say. Agree re. Norwich, it's a nice City to be fair. Some nice architecture, good arts scene, some nice independent food and drinkeries. I wouldn't say it's anything to write home about particularly relative to many others in the UK and I wouldn't be in a hurry to spend a weekend there if I didn't live locally, but it's definitely a cut above Ipswich, without question. I do fecking hate their football team though. |  | |  |

Bit ironic too given they boo the side at the first hint of any adversity. Entitled and delusional bunch of whoppers who wouldn't know good support if it smacked them in the face. Even Delia is calling them out for the dross they are. I notice plenty of empty seats in their game yesterday too. A few points off the playoffs and people still cant be bothered to go and watch. Nothing little club. |  | |  |

YoYo Champions doesn't trump anything. Literally Swansea, Portsmouth and Wigan have won more major honours than you have in the last 20 years and they have spent most of it it the bottom tiers. You have achieved nothing. Zilch. That doesn't change if you beat us Saturday either. |  | |  |

Walk along Prince of Wales Road 10pm on a Friday night and tell me there are worst places in Ipswich than that ? They put bouncers on the flipping train station to stop the troublemakers. Yes there are nice parts in Norwich, there are nice parts in Ipswich I don't think locals quite appreciate parks like Christchurch Park properly. But there are also rubbish bits, just like Ipswich. Alot of Norwich pubs are overrated, there's just so many of them you can find more than few that suit you, but Norwich is a bigger place, it's a regional hub for the whole of Norfolk that the rest of Norfolk feeds into. Ipswich isn't like that it shares that with Bury and because we have good connections to London & Cambridge, Ipswich has less focus in Suffolk as a whole as a result. In Norfolk your choice is Norwich and that's it,everywhere else is a multi hour journey away, so naturally Norwich develops more shops or restaurants or an arts scene because it then has more visitors spending money there. |  | |  |

Yes agree as a county Suffolk is at least equal to Norfolk, my comment was comparing Ipswich & Norwich. Suffolk has lots to offer and my company is 90% remote workers from all over the country and its always nice to hear how others speak of Suffolk when peoples location gets brought up in conversation. Surprised me how many have actually spent a holiday here as we don't actually appreciate what's on our doorstep. At least I am guilty of that anyways. |  | |  |
