When's the first full on press conference Phil?
at 17:54 25 Jul 2024

Other clubs seem to be starting to do 'full' press conferences. Are we expecting one soon?

As I understand it there are lots more requirements to put this on in the Prem and provide access to players, etc.

Japhet Tanganga weighing up his options amid strong interest following his release by Tottenham. Millwall keen to sign Tanganga permanently while Ipswich in the hunt along with Luton. Clubs from abroad also eyeing the in-demand defender. #ITFC #millwall #ltfc #lutontown

Wolves tabling a motion to scrap VAR means it will be debated on voted on.

Suspect it will stay but with some changes to address the main concerns voiced by Wolves in the article.

Prior purchase history needed for home Cov tickets
at 18:07 29 Apr 2024

Up until fairly recently this fixture was advertised as a cash on the day fixture. Probably unsurprisingly they've introduced the need to have a prior purchase history of home fixtures before you'll be allowed to buy one on the day tomorrow.

Bench Cam is a classic
at 17:15 25 Feb 2024

The reaction between Al-Hamadi and McKenna when the 2nd goes in is a thing of beauty.

Bench Cam is running TownIn5 a close thing for my favourite Sunday viewing these days.

Moore winning fouls that Hirst wouldn't get given
at 21:12 11 Feb 2024

Interesting to watch the player cam back and see how Moore won a couple of fouls. I think in similar situations Hirst either wouldn't have won the foul or it would have been given against him.

Not entirely sure what Moore does differently (less 'armsy' maybe?) but hopefully Hirst can learn from him when he's back. Always feel he gets hard done by but maybe if he makes some minor tweaks he won't be.

Excellent interview with Ali Al-Hamadi on TownTV
at 19:35 8 Feb 2024

Particularly liked the bit where he got pulled up for calling McKenna gaffer and then referred to him as boss for the rest of the interview!

Really intelligent and grounded bloke.

Black Cat Roundabout/A421 Closure this weekend
at 17:14 12 Jan 2024

For anyone who travels over to Portman Road via the A421 and the BlackCat roundabout. It's shut all weekend. Don't think it's been particularly well publicised and I know there's quite a few Town fans from the Beds/Bucks area who go that way.

Referees and the Key Match Incident Panel
at 13:06 20 Dec 2023

Interesting insight here into how big decisions are assessed in the EFL. This is outside of the routine refereeing assessment.

85% percent accuracy/success in most jobs would be viewed as pretty good but I think many of us expect refs to be up in the 95%+ zone.

Two Birmingham Fans Arrested For Misogynistic Chants
at 10:03 26 Nov 2023

Article here from The Athletic. Worth bearing in mind with the derby coming up. Whether you think the law is right or not, the "she's a wh0re" chant would almost certainly hit the same bar as this, particularly if Delia is present at the fixture. There's a good chance the two individuals end up with Football Banning Orders as the threshold is fairly low to get one these days.
