Beginning of the end for Blue Action?
at 10:36 11 Mar 2024

Apropos of very little here, and talking from a purely anecdotal perspective, I think part of the teenage support experience is going away, getting drunk and excited, and acting like a nobhead.

I got punched in the head at Carrow Rd in 1996 (Danny Sonner scored a blinder, and I deserved it), and, 3 years later at Swindon, I got basically told by about 30 Towun fans to sit down, shut up and fck off, after turning up drunk and giving some poor old Swindon steward grief over pretty much nothing.

I've also, in more recent times (maybe 10 years ago), started on Sitters and his mates at the back of the NSL over not much at all, prompting a mid-game downstairs 'chat' and, happily, an amicable resolution (do pass my best onto Sam if you see him, Sitters...)

Of course, I am now an exemplary Towun fan, and many others in North Lower follow my lead when passing comment on Keith Stroud's excellent refereeing, along with many other issues.

Simply, if you're punching people at football, then you might be taking it a little bit too seriously.

In any case, I've a lot of love for Blue Action; the OPs post is a bit wild.

Both teams descending into a eternal fiery torment would also be nice.

Your hated footballers
at 07:50 26 Feb 2024

Rob Green the last budgie I properly despised; piss-poor keeper, who should've been nowhere near the England team.

Sutton is a clown voicing nonsense, loudly, for money (plenty of others doing that nowadays, to be fair; hello, Joey Barton...)...

Difficult to think of any more recent ones; Bamford is a tart, but I don't hate him.

We're scoring for fun again, since the end of the transfer window
at 23:36 20 Feb 2024

There was a ball from Sarmiento out wide to Burns in the lead-up to the first goal, that was almost as good.

Watching the goals again here
at 23:18 20 Feb 2024

That 2nd goal absolutely stinks from Hladky; inane goalkeeping.

The goals at Watford and Preston are forgivable, that's the (occasional) cost of how we play - but that's a huge error tonight.

Anyway, he (and we) got away with it.

Uppa Towun.

Could we go down this year?

Morning Churchman, morning everyone.

Honestly berserk to step back and see just how far we've come, in such a short space of time.

Some of that , of course, is simply due to having management who actively wanted to see us succeed - but, even so, we're quite some way ahead of just doing the basics. It's bloody lovely.

Oli Hawkins; being passed to death by Northampton (!); losing 4-1 at home to Peterborough..... really wasn't all that long ago....

Uppa fckun Towun

The Al Hamadi signing reminds me a bit of when Paul Mariner joined.
at 09:06 11 Feb 2024

I'm pretty excited about this one.

Similar to when we got Holland and Tommy Miller in back in the day - I'm a big fan of getting lower league teams best players in, and seeing where they take us....

If Al-Hamadi scores at 2-all yesterday, the North Stand falls down.

Moore “underwhelming”
at 20:12 10 Feb 2024

Steve a couple of weeks ago, now ITFC_Forever - the TWTD elders are all surely being squashed.... strange times, indeed.

Moore did OK today - couple of nice hold-ups and lay-offs, a couple that, as mentioned elsewhere, bounced off him a bit. Underwhelming a bit heavy, but it's all subjective.

Blue Action, indeed EVERYONE… start preparing for WBA

It was quality, man - forget these clowns.

If Broadhead could finish, we'd had been 3-0 and out of sight at HT.

QPR being denied 2 very strong pens this season at PR - as bad as that point was, it should've been even worse.

Decent enough player, hampered, as you say, by injury. Not at the levels of Morsy or Luongo, but that says more about them, than him.

Too good for Chesterfield; could see him at a Derby or Bolton...

Yeah, probably being a little daft with the CM comment - Travis has looked good.

Agree with this, mon ami, not that you need my validation.

Been apparent since Boxing Day and poor old Hirst's leg going pop, that we need two strikers, and looks like some cover needed for Davis too. I'd personally get another CM in also, as I'm unconvinced by Taylor, but acknowledge that I'm fully in the minority on that point.

The back office have done a lot of good things in the last 3 years - however, they need to produce today. Big day, unut.

Any of your other halves been converted to football/Ipswich by Kieran McKenna?
at 16:04 25 Jan 2024

Amen to your last paragraph - and, conversely, it's bloody brilliant seeing the amount of kids round town now wearing the Towun top, as opposed to the usual Big 6 guff.

Away fans sounded brilliant throughout despite the adversity
at 20:53 23 Jan 2024

I was directly opposite the Towun corner (in with the home fans), and Sarmiento's goal was some kind of exquisite torture for me - like a tantric goal celebration. Had to make do with furiously tapping my foot and looking at the roof whilst a load of very cross fans filed out around me.

Foxes fans incredibly harsh on their team, and very very quiet - goal and perhaps 2 other occasions aside, they didn't make too much noise. We were in excellent voice.

Very good point last night, obviously.

At some point we’ll need to go back to a keeper who can use his hands
at 12:34 23 Jan 2024

Yeah it's wild - I mean I disagree with Steve, and Hladky made a couple of banging saves last night (that one from Chowdhury in the first half was particularly good...) but poor old boy, reckon he's flatter than Flat Stanley after that pile-on.

Why is no-one talking about Aouchiche's miss...

He's a pure lemon, Beale; a charlatan of Paul Cook proportions. Talks a brilliant gig; fully incapable of delivering though.

I'm naturally biased, but there's no way Mogga deserved the sack up there.

They do alternate between decent and dross up there; Lee Johnson somehow got the gig up there too.

Do Sky commentators hate us?

Andy Hinchcliffe just as bad...

Sky very fond of the 3 relegated clubs (particularly Leeds, not that surprising I suppose) and Sun'lan'....

Garry Birtles remains the worst ever, mind.
