Thread | The Premier League.
at 20:21 20 Apr 2025
99.999999% certain we’re going to be relegated next Saturday. I’m quite relaxed about this tbh. The journey here was so much more enjoyable than the destination has proved to be and although the players, manager and staff have worked incredibly hard, it’s been just a step too far currently.
Positives……
We can renew our rivalry against the yellow peril up the A140 on and off the pitch again next season.
We have a magnificent fan base on the whole who, apart from a few dissenting voices, have backed the team home and away.
We’ve been privileged to see some of the best football players in the world up close and personal, breathtaking at times.
We’ll get some extra games to attend and be in a much more competitive league.
There won’t be the big team (it exists) bias that appears to (subconsciously at least) affect officiating at times. I will add that hasn’t in any way majorly affected our league position but is feckin annoying nonetheless.
My lad will be back from his travels and will be my football match day buddy again.
Half and half scarf selling spivs won’t be littering Portman Rd like some second rate Sunday market.
Roll on August, the Championship and let’s keep behind the lads and manager for the remainder of the season.
Love this club.
Uppa Town.

Not impressed with some of the referees decisions, McGin seems to be able to get away with all sorts without a yellow, never a booking for Axel for the first one. Up against it now.

Thread | Not Enjoying The Premier League.
at 16:04 25 Jan 2025
Liverpool haven’t needed to get out of first gear yet. The same as Citeh last Sunday.
The gulf in class between the top six or so teams and the rest is ridiculous, and even then, the next six or seven teams are way better than the bottom four.
Apart from the fact that seeing the best players in the flesh on a regular basis is something to behold, even with the huge sums of money we’ve spent, we’re not even competitive in some of the games.
Should be grateful for how far we’ve come as a club but I’m starting to really miss the championship at times now.

…..From the Brighton fans. ”Christian Walton, he’s one of our own” after he passed the ball out for a corner.
Shouldn’t have but it did make me laugh. |

I’d have taken that before a ball was kicked. Yes, we were pegged back twice but great effort from the lads and super entertainment.

Better team for the entire game. Pressed brilliantly and carved us open at will. They could and should have won by a much bigger margin.
Best team I’ve seen us play so far in the Premier League by some distance.
The end. |

Probably deserved 3 points overall, but pinch me, we’ve just equaled one of the biggest clubs in world football and I’m absolutely buzzing.

…….I,m currently doing a word or words of the day to replace plants of the day on Facebook and try to bring a little chuckle or a little smile to my friends on there, many of whom are going through a bit of a rough time with various different problems that life is throwing their way.
Looking for genuine words that are rarely or now never used in the English language and was hoping some of you might have some interesting ones I could use with accompanying meanings. Rude or risqué most welcome too.
Thanks. |

Thread | Yerevan or Tbilisi or both?
at 13:15 17 Oct 2024
The lad and me are considering something a little different for next autumn’s trip, he watches a lot of Bald and Bankrupt, and we quite like the idea of Armenia or Georgia although they appear to be a bit of a pain to fly to but time will be limited so it seems flying via Istanbul is the best option.
Anyhoo TWTD travellers, would we better based in Yerevan or Tbilisi, or maybe split the two and spend a few nights in each. Advice on alternative flights also appreciated 👍 |

Thread | Spectacles And Redecorating.
at 13:56 8 Oct 2024
Just had to fork out over £300 on new glasses while at the same time redecorating the kitchen and hallway at our cottage plus new flooring at a cost of over 2.5k.
Where are these free donations coming from Sir Kier and Boris as I would like to apply.
Kind regards,
Disgruntled from Stoke Ash. |

Matched one of the Premier League’s best teams all over the pitch. But for them having the best goalkeeper in the world, we would have won it.
The Towen will be fine, good game to watch and chuffed as feck this afternoon.

Thought I’d share this with you all. Went to Sarajevo for a 3 night break with my lad a couple of weeks ago. Absolutely blown away by what a beautiful country this is. Fabulous scenery, still very cheap to eat and drink (the local beer was excellent) and incredibly hospitable people. Visited Mostar and some other small towns and places of interest while there too.
Not overrun by western tourists yet either which was very refreshing. A real melting pot of cultures and some stark reminders of their turbulent recent history.
Highly recommended for a city break and right up there with the other more well known destinations we’ve been to. |

This time tomorrow morning, like many of you, I’ll be (hopefully) donning my new Ipswich replica shirt and waiting eagerly for my lift to the football. Early start to get down to Isaacs or the Arcade Tavern for a couple of snifters before heading off to FPR to watch us take on the mighty Liverpool.
Let that sink in, Liverpool, Salah, VanDijk, Trent, Robertson, Darwin, etc etc.
We’ve come a hell of a long way in two years and whatever will be will be.
My son, now 24 has never seen top flight football in the 18 years he’s been coming with me. He’s absolutely buzzing.
Enjoy the ride fellow blues. It’s great to be back. |

Great set. Beer 8 quid a pint. Acoustics not the best but still had a cracking night dancing away with some random lads who had flown over from Ireland. Would give it a 7.5 out of 10 overall.
Those of you who are going on Sunday night have a great time. |

Any other TWTD ers going. Looking forward to seeing them again, last time was the Black Ice tour in 2009/10.
Will surely be the last time they will tour I would have thought. |
