Comment | TWTD Launches Butcher Tribute Shirts
at 20:17:41
rgp1, to describe anyone as a treasonous traitor is a crass tautology. Judging by the ignorance of your earlier comments you will probably need a friend to explain what that means.
Butcher is a legend, for Town and England. To hear you question this is a disgrace. Weigh up what you have done for either and see how it compares.
England were free to offer him a role if they wished. I totally understand why they haven't, but he must have earned the right to continue his career -- look at Andy Robinson as a case in point.
Your small-minded remarks betray your bigotry, and belittle the greatness of Butcher's achievements and character. Every true Ipswich and England fan will be disgusted by your lack of respect and loyalty.

Comment | Town Considering Robson Stand Tribute
at 23:53:05
If you had a vote on what the fans wanted, I predict 95%+ would agree with the proposal to rename a stand after Bobby. Please, please let's not hang about and allow Newcastle United to steal our Bobby and name one of their stands first. The national press and news have been making too much of his connections with Newcastle and have underplayed his 13 years with Town. Let's not allow people to forget that it is here that he developed to become one of the best and most respected managers of his era, and where he won his only English silverware.
I also think that it seems right to recognise both of our mangers who did so much for us and our country. Remember the club that we were before Alf took charge and what he achieved with us (League Champions!) before leading our country (World Champions!) -- So why not a Sir Bobby Robson Stand and a Sir Alf Ramsey stand? It would give them both the honour that they deserve as well as reminding us and our visitors of the proud heritage of the club.
On the subject of the shirts for the Newcastle game, which will raise the most money, auctioning 11 (or 22) shirts, or letting all Town and United fans have a chance to buy one at £40? I think the latter. |
