Thread | I have only in the passed week realised that the bloke from
at 14:44 24 Sep 2024
Master Chef’s name is actually John Torode. I have genuinely thought istwas Johnty Rode, for all these years. I’m in my mid 50’s, so maybe I should have realised before now? Anyone else got something they’ve realised they have been getting wrong for years (no jokes about marrying her indoors etc). |

Thread | Going to stick my head above the parapet here, but some rich white people
at 19:02 21 Aug 2024
Tragically die in a boating related incident (and I appreciate a black man too) in Italy, which is terrible beyond words, genuinely shocking, and I do mean that, and there is wall to wall press coverage, which I kinda get. Last month, four migrants drowned trying to get across the English Channel in a single incident. And………..not quite the same level of press coverage, was there? Why is that? Guess they are worth less. It troubles me. Really troubles me. Maybe I’m too woke, so await the brickbats. |

Thread | Suddenly feeling a little bit frightened.
at 13:35 6 Aug 2024
First game now just over 10 days away. Liverpool and Citeh doing well in their pre seasons. Starting to feel a bit more real now. Blimey, it's going to be a challenge. I'm suddenly getting "just don't lose 6-0 at home on the first game" thoughts seeping into my tiny brain. How's every one else doing? |

Thread | Yesterday, we were the 9th highest transfer spenders in Europe
at 13:55 17 Jul 2024
With the likes of Spurs, Man U and Real Madrid pitifully trailing in our wake. I know it's early days, and by the end of the transfer window it will obviously be a completely different picture, but our current spending still seems like it's happening to someone else to me. It still seems completely surreal. What are we on now, nearly £60mill or something? £60mill!! There is a part of me that still finds this all a bit scary and not "Ipswich" at all. I mean, I love it, but it does leave me feeling a bit squiffy and discombobulated. |

Thread | Although I very much like our transfer window so far
at 19:07 12 Jul 2024
I would like to see a player or two with a bit of full on Prem experience. A Ross Barkley type figure (yes, I know he didn’t help them stay up). I would caveat this by stating in KM and MA we trust etc etc. Maybe just that one experienced head in there might make a difference. I have only coached at youth level, so I may well be talking out of my @rse…….. |

We, Ipswich Town, are just about to sign a player for £20mill. £20mill. Bloody hell, that seems a lot of money. Our biggest signing last close season was £1.5mill. Wonder how many seasons up to now it has taken us to cumulatively spend £20mill. These are the days. |

Thread | Southgate suddenly feels like yesterdays man
at 19:29 20 Jun 2024
And I will be the first to admit that I have been a Southgate fan in his England role in the past. But having watch Town at close quarters in the past two years, it’s made me realise (no, reinforced) how advanced KM is in his style of football. Southgate is no risk football, KM is all risk. High risk, high rewards. Englands style suddenly feels quite old fashioned. Football now seems high tempo, England aren’t. And it isn’t as though we don’t have the players. |

Thread | So what do we think the finer details are?
at 19:22 29 May 2024
More cheese in the changing room? Platform boots for Chappers? Burns growing his hair back? KM being allowed to wear something other than a black top with a half zip, grey trousers and black trainers with a white sole? Pert legally obliged to keep his top on, no matter what the celebrations? What do we think? |
