Hold your nerve time
at 17:51 1 Sep 2025

Building a team good enough for the Premier and to stay up is the plan. We know most the team were not good enough for the premier last year no matter how much we loved them. Hopefully most of the long term new signings will be this time.

Trust the process

Can anyone explain why Chaplin started on Saturday ?
at 17:33 1 Sep 2025

I think if a player is in your starting 11 his value is higher when selling or negating a loan fee. Lots of football fans seem to forget football is a business as well.

However if Chaplin had of had a brilliant game , scored or assisted then perhaps we would not have let him go.

But also a nice touch to give him a game. I know someone in the comments has said McKenna would not play a weakened side but I don't think Chappers would be much behind Szcmodics

I like your team that you have picked and can see that happening.

I think we find several players on the bench regularly that cost more than 17 million however!!

List of targets
at 22:27 27 Aug 2025

I am not sure the lists will always be in order anyway.

If there is an order it might be down to price an availability amongst other things. Its not as simple as 1 to 10 being 1st to tenth choice.

Or if Hackney decided he did want to come after all would we still sign him? I think we have the funds if we wanted him as well.

Could be make a trio of south Americans? I think we will get the Uruguayan defender but unlikely to get the Mexican but you know know.

In Mckenna and Ashton I trust

Half the 150 million spent last season recouped with 3 player sales!
at 19:52 16 Aug 2025

With the fees received for Hutchinson , Delap and Broadhead thats almost half of last seasons spend recouped all ready. If the Muric loan becomes permeant and we receive a fee eventually that will be more than half last seasons spend back.

From our signings last season we still have

Jack Clark
Sammie Szmodics
Greaves
O Shea
Phiigene
Ogbene
Ben Johnson

Have I missed anybody?

I think just the AAH to go this window on a permanent move.

Unless a huge offer came in for Leaf I can't see him going.

This does not include younger players going out on loan like Baggot , Barbrock or Humphries. Not that I expect those three to go on loan but perhaps one or two will.

One to three players to come in not counting Ivan Azon if things go well.

I agree , we are well stocked in this area. Centre forward and centre midfielders are the priority.

Arguably Broady is our best number 10
at 17:58 26 Jan 2025

As much as I like Leaf , Hutchinson and Morse I don't think they should necessarily be guaranteed a starting roll.

I think Hutchinson should be competing for his starting place now we have 2 excellent reinforcements .

Chelsea have made a second approach for Delap this window....
at 18:15 14 Jan 2025

If we accepted a huge offer but got to keep him on loan until the end of the season would be better. Thats if we sold in the first place.

I posted this in the summer but will post again.
Philogean - He says I am the one and Billy is not my son.
at 09:33 7 Jul 2024

It certainly will be a Thriller if he comes here but thats if he does not Beat It to Palace. I realise it's not a Black or White decision.
We could re-sign Ben again but I realise that a lot fans think he is a smooth criminal so unlikely to happen.
I know it's a bit Off the Wall but they don't really Care about us , it is Bad I know but he could feel like a Stranger in Moscow at Palace or Everton. But at Ipswich We want to be Starting Something so he should come here. Don't believe what the Sun reports its the Man in the Mirror that knows what he is talking about. I don't think Aston will Stop till he gets enough. Omari said he Could Rock with me>


I think I managed to reference 13 Micheal Jackson songs in the above post but realise most of you are too young to catch that. I think I was still drunk from Englands win last night when I posted the above.

We’re after Jesus.
at 15:13 6 Jan 2025

On football league world it says there is $100 million buy out clause on his contract so I expect they would like quite a high figure for him.
Also I found links that Everton and West Ham have made offers on him as well as Arsenal having a bid rejected.

This is defiantly not a nailed on signing but he would be a superstar for us and we would certainly rise up the table over the Easter weekend.

Played 4 of the top 6 so far
at 18:08 30 Sep 2024

Well 6 games in not only have two games been against the top two but 4 of our games have been against current top 6 teams .

Five of our six games have been against top 9 teams so we have only played one bottom half of the table team .

Fingers crossed we can be the Hammers or is that the Irons?

Bonne to southend
at 09:51 10 Sep 2024

I think we all loved Bonne and most of still do of course. He was a great player for us the first half of the season and I am so glad he achieved what he did for his home town club.

Would love to see him as guest at Portman road one day or in the Fanzone.

Wishing him great success at Southend.
