As Perublue said, perfectly summed up.
Great leader, who will be ,missed, but the right move for the player who wants to keep starting matches and the right move for the club who need to continually improve.
Who could have imagined when Morsy signed that he would have achieved what he did with us? |

What a harrowing read.
So pleased to hear he has found love with a wonderful lady and has battled through his demons to know set himself up to help others. Some people are truly inspirational. [Post edited 6 Jul 15:44]

There was a bar, which I think was called "Spuds", just along from the Malt Kiln. Then it revamped to "Blue Riband".
I think "Spuds" had sand on the floor, as part of its theme......... |

My dates may be a bit out, but I seem to remember that for a few seasons after our '78 cup final victory, Arsenal would come into the West Stand 3 or 4 times a game (possibly from Churchmans). To be fair, the West Standers done well and more than stood their ground. |

Whenever I hear this song, it reminds me of the time when we were on our way to an away game around the late 80's and it got postponed. Ended up at QPR v Luton or Watford ( my memory is shot).
Just after the final whistle, whilst "Life's what you make it" was blasting out on the tannoy, a mini riot took place in the left hand corner (as you look at the pitch in the away section), where the away and home fans managed to break through the cordon and attack each other. |

I enjoyed Civ 1 and loved Civ 2. Didn't like Civ3 and was unaware that 4,5,6 and now 7 exist! |

I'm crap with dates etc., but remember going to Oldham twice, quite quickly and getting stuffed 4-0 , or 4-1 both times. It was bloody freezing both trips and definitely snowing at one of them. At least one was a mid week evening kick off.
Bizarrely, I remember watching an Oldham ticket tout (God only knows why because the ground was half empty), approach the Ipswich directors outside the main stand, trying to sell them tickets. |

Yes, thinking about it, I think the throw ins from the full back areas are where I mostly noted the problem. |

It's strange how Kieran hasn't noticed this and done something about it. We work so hard to retrieve possession, it seems a travesty to give the ball away so often, so cheaply. |

We were exceptionally poor at throw ins on Saturday. There rarely seemed any players available and we frequently lost possession very quickly after our throw in. Hadn't really noticed it much in other games this season, but it really stood out against Forest. |

I only ever spoke to Kingy on 2 occasions, at the same match.
Me and my mate got a taxi from Belgrade to FC Sartid, with a random Town fan we had just met. The driver took us to the town centre (small), so I asked him to show us where the stadium was before dropping us back at a bar in town. This was about 4 hours prior to kick off. After half an hour or so, Kingy cam up to us with 3 other police (from memory they were all plain clothes) and said "all right lads, are you leaving shortly, because the grounds a long walk away?" I just nodded and they left.....it was 10/15 minute walk.
Halfway into the 2nd half, he approached me and my mate and said "How's it going?" We nodded and said "Good, great trip so far". He then went on to say " You're with the Clacton mob, aren't you?" We both just pi55ed ourselves laughing. We both lived in central Ipswich and just outside. From that day, we called them the Police Unintelligence Unit. |

I watched us getting beat in there several years ago, when I was in Paris to watch Rennes beat PSG in the cup final. Hope the Ipswich result is far better tomorrow. |

Been there a few times.
Once was for the Full Members Cup (or something similar) midweek semi final defeat.
One of the few grounds where I can remember a "National Front" flag regularly being displayed in the side stand near the away end. |
