Just logging after 48 hours… 01:47 - Aug 30 with 2020 viewsDecageBruce

Still a headless club with a disappointing transfer window and Ashton due his P45?

Some people are never happy

Then they wonder why we call them trilling budgies.

Edit: Just noticed the question mark at the end of OP - are me & Mutters taking this the wrong way? Even so ...

I’m holding back on my uppie or downie for this reason as I know very well sarcasm does not come across well always in written form…. I await for further developments.

Headless club couldn’t be further from them truth. If we are referring to the transfer window now look at the revolution that’s happened this summer, the high value sales, the reinvestment, the acquisition of talent into slots we need to deal with due to leavers, contracts running down.

I voted down with nothing more to add.

I'm tempted by an uppie as I think Ashton also deserves a PS5. Can't discount the impact of next generation gaming.

I know that was then, but it could be again..

In the past few days we signed the final member of the WBA back 5 who stopped Ipswich from having any meaningful attack in our 2-0 defeat during our promotion season, our closest rival’s second best player whose stats are not that far behind Hayden Hackney, a long term striker target who is a big upgrade on AAH and broken the Championship transfer record in a player who many believe is Europe’s new young hot talent.

People are missing your sarcasm here, however the thing to do now is just to get the unity back, the atmosphere ramped up, and this frankly superb looking squad firing ASAP.

Blimey, he's caught a big fish here!

Isn't the OP taking the piss out of all the transfer window bedwetters from a week or so ago?

Exactly this.

Surprised so many haven't clocked the question mark.

My attempt at sarcasm after a few drinks obviously wasn’t obvious. I’ll go and scrub up on my grammar and writing skills, and get back in my basket.

FWIW, I wouldn’t say I wasn’t a little concerned with the state of the squad (lack of depth in certain positions etc) but what I have learned over the last 3.5 years is that our club doesn’t stand still now. There may have been, in the past, what have been seen as panic buys but I was always confident we’d get bodies in.

Also, short term history also shows that we often go back for known targets but also get surprise ‘left field’ signings.

Overall, it still feels that there is a small vocal minority that don’t trust those in charge of the club be it with recruitment or management following a rough season (ahead of schedule) in the Prem, which has been a learning curve for us all, and a slow start to this season with an incomplete squad.

It *is* literally invisible in the list of subject headers on the ‘front page’ of the forum, on my phone anyway, which is probably why many are getting caught.

You can only see it when you open the post, but how many people then read the subject header again? You tend not to because you’ve gone on to read the body of the post at that point.

Genuine question… why would you expect to the the question mark in the header on the homepage when it only makes sense for the body of the text and not the title?

Just wondering if there are diff views to the board other than what I have set atm.

Thanks

I think the original sentence should have begun with "Are we..." for the sake of those who don't understand punctuation.

Off to the match now. Do you think the newbies will be paraded?

I meant in the first couple of lines that appear under the subject headers on the list on the front page of the forum (which is called the index apparently ).

Having seen that, your brain tends to skip it when you actually open the body of the post. Well mine does anyway. Apologies for the lack of clarity in my earlier post.

I infer from this that you are pleased with the last couple of days' business. So is everyone else.

So why reopen old wounds and sow division when we should all just be really excited to see how this new squad does?

I agree that we should all be excited and I am. I don’t see anything wrong with a tongue in cheek post after all the negativity that I’ve had* to read and has dominated this forum for the last little while.

* I appreciate I don’t have to read anything but living a long way away from Suffolk TWTD has been my central source of ITFC interaction for many years even if most of it is just through lurking
