Thread | Ipswich Town FC truly is dead now
at 16:19 13 Apr 2021
In its’ place is a new vision run by one of the most ruthless men in football, a hardened negotiator with experience of physical infrastructure development, backed by billions and billions of American dollars.
The days of Ipswich as a Corinthian club run by and for gentlemen & lady amateurs, in a sleepy backwater, known for conviviality and harmony and an overall sense of Suffolk out on a limb weirdness and uniqueness, are over.
I feel very sad about this. No I am not unexcited about the owners and yes Evans was a disaster. But I feel something important has been lost now, never to return. |

He still seems to think it’s possible for us to sneak into the play offs.
He’s either very positive, utterly mental, or a great actor. He does come across well though and I hope against hope he decides to stay this summer whatever happens. Presumably Evans will back him like he has all his managers (apart from Mick). |

What was that line in the original Evans deal contract about selling for no more than he bought the club for..? I’ve searched the news function but I can’t find it and I’m sure there was some clause in there along those lines. |

Even though he is sort of sticking around with a small share. And in a way we all have Sheepy to thank as I believe the original deal was engineered such that Evans could only sell a certain way...?
Now, important question boyos; is the Banter Era over? |

....Officially end with the departure of Evans (even though he is staying in as an investor) or should it continue until we are back being competitive in the Championship? |

Never apologise, never explain. It’ll never be enough for these people. You have every right to protest. |

Has anyone asked at these pressers that Lambert is dodging, Why does the Manager keep dodging these pressers? |

“First of all, contrary to what other people say externally, I know that our medical team and ground staff and everyone else work extremely hard to try and provide the best possible facilities and the best possible outcome for all of our players,” he told TWTD.
Gonna have to point me at all the people calling those staff lazy Lee. Although the words “try” and “best possible” do tell us quite a lot which I’m sure is not what you intended since I am also sure you’re not that clever. |

Thread | Very wise words here
at 11:22 1 Feb 2021
“The football club (Ipswich), it’s gone down the route of a lot of loans, some loans come in and all of a sudden they go away at the end of the season and the next ones come in. You can’t keep doing that, you have to have your own team of players here and maybe one or two loans, I get that, but not an influx, it’s very difficult to sustain that”
Very sensible and good words. Important. Good! |

A deeply emotional man who is very sensitive. Look at his presser this week after a win compared to last when he was getting so bitter at Our Phil.
Hopefully he isnt up and down like this with the players all week, if he is no wonder half the time they play like strangers. |

Thread | Goodbye friends! (yes this is one of those terrible look at me posts)
at 09:17 19 Feb 2020
In a couple of weeks I am moving to Germany, permanently.
Since I don't care much at all about Ipswich Town anymore and haven't been to a home game in about 2 years, and since I won't be in the UK and won't have much interest in domestic politics and whatnot as I settle me and my family into a new culture & country, it seems a good time to recuse myself from TWTD.
I think I started posting here in December 1998 so that's a lot of time to have spent guffing about arguing over Louie Donowa, Holland or Kinsella, why Jim went mad (the great modern tragedy in our history btw) etc etc.
I'll be here for the rest of the week so get your digs in now before your favourite social conservative tedious moraliser leaves forever.
SUQ, etc.
PS, I added this as a football thread since I know some good TWTD mandem these days don't open General threads and frankly I want to bother them one last time. XOXO. |
