I like how they 'take time' over throw ins etc but we 'waste' time |

Went to first leg but couldn't get anyone to take me to Amsterdam (was only 15). As i lived in Cambridge, out of local radio range, i was listening to National Radio sports programmes none of which had commentary, just periodical updates when a goal went in. 3 years later both legs of the final (with spurs involved) were live on tv.... Unbelievable relief when the whistle went though, great times. |

Have my doubts over this but if true he needs to get away from here if he's going to realise anything like his talent, which is probably mid table championship, but who knows? Same goes for one or two others. |

I think it’s a fair point and I’m certainly not dreading L1 in particular, what have we been achieving in the championship anyway? Bit unfair on the fans though, I think the general consensus is more we that we wanted something decent to watch allied to an occasional tilt at the prem.
What I’ve found unpleasant is that whilst fans of most teams are allowed to dream a bit about what they’d like to achieve, we seem to have to know our place in the world and not get above our station. Little Ipswich, boring championship club that loses every year to lower or non league sides in the cups. Wasn’t too much to ask for a bit more surely? |

My mum kept me on the straight and narrow as well. I’d been a supporter since about 1973 when I was 7 and for the first few seasons we were fairly successful (ridiculously so compared to the last 30 years of course). The first season which wasn’t as good tested my young patience and half way through it I told my mum I was going to change to (bizarrely at the time) Man City. As a result I was given the biggest b*llocking in my life up to that point and told I should stand by my team and never give up on them. I told her I’d keep with it until the end of the season........we won the FA Cup. Lesson learned, but for now we desperately need a bit of relative success. |

Comment | Town Topic: Memories of The Beat

Had everything and would have run through a brick wall if bobby had asked him to. I think the time I found myself disagreeing with bobby was on a few occasions when he played beat but really shouldn't have because of clear injury. But Kevin wouldn't have ever wanted to have let him or anyone else down by not playing. One towering header at Everton lives in the memory (in a losing cause FA cup quarter final) which ronaldo but few others could ever match. Met him once or twice in recent years and echo others comments about what a great bloke he was. The club is a poorer place without him but we so desperately need to build new memories and legends. Trouble is if we ever unearthed a player like h8m these days, Man City or Chelsea would steal him at age 15 or 16. |

Went to the quarter and semi but couldn't get a cup final ticket so it was on tv for me, unforgettable though, was convinced Arsenal would score right to the end. Having supported town from a young age (nearly12 when the cup was won) and being laughed at by all the big club hangers on at school, they all ate humble pie on the Monday morning! |

Valiant but ultimately misplaced. Unlike the glory seeking kiddies most town fans taking this course of action are ST holders of many many years standing who simply can’t or won’t stump up £500in advance anymore for the same old rubbish. I’m sure many still attend but now pick and choose games all of which doesn’t mean they don’t support the club anymore. Turning a glory seeking argument against town fans is for the large part pretty unlikely to hold water! |
