Maitland-Niles to Complete Move on Thursday
at 22:25:53

I find it unbelievable that there are people on here who are knocking this signing without having even seen the guy play. Remember the impact that the last teenage midfielder we signed on loan had? We don't know what impact Maitland-Niles is going to have yet. Perhaps wait and see before forming a judgement, because if he has anything like the impact that Johnny Williams had, it'll be a phenomenal signing. I'm not saying he will or won't - I'm just saying that surely it's logical to see him play before judging.

As for holding back our own youngsters from getting in the first team - perhaps, quite simply, they aren't ready for first team football yet and maybe he is? I'd rather us play a quality loanee in the side than a youngster who's not ready for first team football, purely because he's 'one of our own'.

Just a quick comment on MrBloo. I'm guessing that the reason that people are rude and abusive towards you is because those people have watched Mick McCarthy take over as manager of Ipswich when we were bottom of the table and heading for league one - in two seasons they've watched him completely transformed the fortunes of the team, despite financial constraints which restricted him to only spending £10,000 on transfer fees. I guess they maybe find it frustrating when people not only fail to recognise what Mick has achieved but actually slate him on here and that frustration manifests itself in abuse. I can understand that personally. The style of football has not always been as attractive as other teams (who've invariably had the benefit of a substantially greater budget than us) but I'm afraid Ipswich put in many cracking performances irrespective of your view.

Charlton 0-1 Town - Match Report
at 00:09:16

I think the best thing to do with regards to people making inexplicably negative comments on here after a game like today's, is to simply laugh at their sheer ignorance and total irrationality. Most town fans watching the game today would have felt immense pride that, despite being without Berra (our best central defender since joining the club) and key players such as Bru, Williams, Bishop and Hyam, we were still resolute, held our own, played some decent football and clinched a fantastic win. Only those who are utterly blinkered, ignorant and don't grasp what goes into making a decent football team would manage to display negativity after today's game.
