Comment | Aluko Back With Blues Ahead of Crewe Clash
at 08:15:12
Too many still far less than objective,but understandably as fans expressing their frustration and feelings ! Passion is good ,but observation needs to be coldly clinical, objective and analytical ; it’s very plain some of ‘our’ team on the pitch lack technical application and critical decision making !
The ‘ TOP’ team in the Club Managerial structure need to step in, step up, apply some pressure for a re jig of the Coaching group and persuade Cook of the sense of urgency which needs to be introduced .
No reason for panic, but a mid- season reassessment of realities !

Definitely leaves the most positive and genuine impression ; a balanced standpoint ,a careful and modest assessment from a man whose values seem well founded !

PC you’ve had your way ,got rid of 20 or so playing staff,benefited from new owners and great background impetus ,BUT continue sadly to fail !
Who else do we, or can we look to in order to produce better individual performances, or better and more confident co-ordinated Team performances ?
There are just so many areas and reasons for discontent,and too many physical and technical failings or weaknesses ,all of which come under your areas of responsibility .
No doubt we shall hear from you with a mixture of acceptance, political diatribe and empathy with our wonderful supporters ; all that would be quite reflective of your hopeful smoke and mirrors projection .
Very very sadly we see NO concrete evidence you know how to coach, nor that your coaches have enough nouse or input to effect improvements ; and can you ,or he, tell us exactly whatPeter Reid is bringing to the set up ( or is he the shoulder for each to cry upon ?) .
This is dreadful by any measurement you might want to present !
PC ,your credentials are looking exceedingly thin !

Comment | Cook: We Fully Deserved Something Out of the Game
at 18:45:51
No good feeling anything , no good talking through what might have been ; we’ve got to emphasise our strengths and ability by EARNING the victories and scoring the goals — and not conceding too often in the second half !
Get a grip ,change the results !

Comment | Sunderland 2-0 Ipswich Town - Match Report
at 17:37:40
PC you and your coaches still have a great deal of work and convincing to do ! Where are the cool,professional heads ,and calculating minds in this team ,particularly in the crucial scoring positions ?
Possession and favourable stats count for nought ; balls in the back of the nets bring the results and points we seek .How many goals have come from set pieces, from corners ? Where is the necessary dominance when we have either the ball or the free kick ?
Something’s wrong with how this promising squad fails to perform and deliver ; we’ve individuals regularly singled out for in effect doing only 80/90% of the job ,and failing to effect the final pass etc — reports indicate this is a team failing of similar proportions .,
We all desperately wish the Blues to have a run of success and to bring pleasure and joy into the homes and weekend — BUT you’re failing despite wonderful support !
Get angry with them ,don’t spare the Rod , make them all feel really guilty ,let’s believe there’s humility and determination amongst this group OR there’ll need to be changes .,

Comment | Walton: Players Love Receiving Such Phenomenal Backing
at 17:59:40
That’s ITFC and the smashing supporters we’ve had for all the long years I can remember ( since the 1950’s ) .
It’s a superb demonstration of the generosity of spirit which epitomises the passion for ITFC !

Seems very much a genuine character and balanced human being with bags of enthusiasm and desire to perform well !
Sir Bobby was always intent on having good character and characters in and around the team: in that regard would guess this man would figure !

Comment | Cook: We Deserved to Win
at 19:42:00
PC admits to bias - and why not ? But it shouldn’t disguise or deflect from cold objective analysis that the ‘old ‘ shortcomings still exist ; it shouldn’t be only the ‘ flair ‘players expected to see the game home ! For years and years ITFC have needed goals to come from the mid- field and from set pieces ,and I submit we still do .
More than a few recognise certain players with no ‘end product ‘ : at professional level such weaknesses ought to show signs at least of improvement and elimination for the good and benefit of not only the team, but in our case , more and better goal scoring opportunities arising and taken !
Lots going in the right direction , still some to do but well done ITFC !

Dealing with inconsistency ,be it within the team . OR the Officials is a consistent requirement - though the latter is most irritating ! Like players they as individuals can and do have an off day ,but time wasting is hardly difficult to either recognise or deal with !
The report indicates this Official Team were lacking in several respects ,BUT it entirely down to ITFC to always perform and self justify ; currently the frustrating inconsistency and seeming lack of technical ability to finish is proving a very real handicap !Get to it ,Team ,show us better !

Comment | Town Place Norwood on Transfer List
at 12:55:14
Sadly there was always a character fault line evident ,and it very soon showed ! Undoubtedly a fully committed individual on the pitch , he had no special technical assets ,nor the physical qualities to cause defences any great problems in the penalty box; fitness and a bullying attitude were strengths but unfortunately he simply could not control his mouth and emotions ,getting totally needlessly carded on many an occasion .
A likeable fella maybe, a class act on the field never ,at least not in an ITFC shirt !
Nevertheless wish him well and hope he can put troubles behind him ,and make the very most of his talent for the remainder of his career .

Comment | Ashton: We're Trying to Change the Culture of the Club
at 22:52:04
What our NEW TOP man has to say ,even if with care and discretion , is so so relevant !
For years it’s been very very evident M E either wasn’t too interested , or hadn’t a real clue, about how to set up a functioning Management team and structure to run ITFC .He seemingly always failed to give away his authority ,and there was absolutely no route or commitment to effecting change or indeed any improvements within the business .
But we must now look forward with real and renewed hope !

Comment | Ashton: Cobbold Stand Has a Lifespan
at 22:41:56
It’s been only too obvious for years and years that little or no attention has been paid to the ground and the Town estate in general .
It’s has about the same level of planning and forethought as the reality of actually developing and building a proper side and reserve resources to progress to and maintain stability at the highest levels .
There’s lots of potential to provide a much better ,and better resourced stadium ,and to add facilities which ought to be readily available,but which lack of imagination and drive have to date typically hampered .
Overall what we are now seeing is a proper Management Team focused on seemingly all aspects of running and developing the business that is ITFC .
Good on yer chaps , all behind you , press on !

Sort it , AND sort them out PC ; somethings very much amiss with a side apparently lacking conviction,confidence and consistency !
Where on earth is the self belief and (STILL ) the hunger to score enough goals to win ,certainly in these circumstances ?

TH you have a very valid point ! BUT WHY ? Motivation should most naturally come from within , yet too often it seems we lack that drive,determination and the sheer will to dominate, dictate and show our best whilst going on to WIN !
