We have to remember where we were.
at 10:32 20 Oct 2024

Yes I know where we currently are and but for Southampton capitulating late on to Leicester we'd be bottom three. But we have to realise where we were just two seasons ago. Yes, the bubble has burst, reality is setting in. But providing we stay positive and make a few adjustments we'll be o.k.

Parking Fine
at 16:09 7 Sep 2024

Hi everyone. I would like to know if anyone has recently received a parking fine from Parkmaven for parking in the Buttermarket in Ipswich. I went there 30th of August. Unfamiliar that they had changed from the plastic disc to registration monitoring I went to the car park and was surprised to just be able to drive in. Left the car park for just over two hours. Returned and looking at one of the signs it said PAY ON LEAVING. I got in the car and drove to where there is normally a barrier where I expected to maybe pay by card. Nothing and no staff member in the booth on exit. Thinking obviously wrongly I exited the car park believing that maybe they were in the process of changing the method of payment and so until work had completed the car park was free. Then I received a photo of my car leaving the car park with a £60 fine. I have paid due to the fact I am shortly on holiday and although I have written to the Company I cannot risk delaying the payment and a further £40 being added to the fine.

Relentless March.
at 13:33 2 Sep 2024

Anyone else fed up with the relentless march of price increases whilst at the same time having the Government constantly whinging about the mess the Tories have left them and the Country in. Leading to more tax increases and cuts. If they were that concerned why didn't they concede the election and let the Tories carry on. Of course they wouldn't because they are all suited and booted now with a nice little earner for the next five years. Don't get carried away with their promises or lack of as it turns out. Just another 5 years doom and gloom on top of the Tories 14 years of the same.

My only concern.
at 10:42 29 Aug 2024

I believe our buying/loan window has been very good. Maybe another centre forward in before the close. My only concern is that so many have come in and the gelling process takes too long before we get a decent points tally on the board.

More strikes by ASLEF

Isn't it about time passengers got the service that they pay over the odds for. Every year already over inflated fares for travelling by train go up by even more. Have been lead to believe train drivers on £60,000 a year, when junior doctors on just over £14 a hour when the minimum wage is £11.44 an hour. Very soon I travel to Southampton, for myself and wife it cost £336 return. Had to laugh, heard a joke recently where a comedian said "Instead of your regular train there's a replacement bus service." So I gave them a tin of pineapple and said "That's your replacement money"

Water Company Fines.
at 18:28 6 Aug 2024

I know someone recently brought this up but fining these water companies is pointless. Apparently they have by the regulator been allowed to raise bills by £94 over the next few years. Thames water are apparently being fined £104 million. All this will do is mean we get worse service for paying more money. Surely their task is to provide drinkable water and remove unwanted items in the sewage and then not allow untreated sewage into rivers and seas and prevent leaks. A basic requirement. Why not make the likes of Thames spend that money on improvements. You can bet your bottom dollar the board members and shareholders won't suffer it will be bill payers.

Greaves

Jusr read the letter Greaves sent to Hull fans. Incredible and humbling. If he's as good as Hull fans say and by his great attitude to his previous club looks like we have a decent player and a very decent chap.

So 5 in and 9 out
at 13:59 17 Jul 2024

So we have 5 in and 9 out. Do we think there will be more or less than another 4 before the window closes. Just wondering as we also have to think about the January window where the last two seasons the bulk of our buying or loans have taken place. Then of course there are still a few currently named in the squad such as Ladapo, Al Hamadi and Baggott plus another one or two who may or may not be loaned out or sold.
