Which of these is the most annoying person to be sat near at a game?
at 01:08 12 Feb 2024

There's a bloke who sits behind me in Cobbold C who always talks about Man United which is just weird behaviour. If Town and United are playing he'll have the United game on his phone and also be watching that.

Part of me wants to go easy on him cause he has always gone, even during League One and the relegation, so has been more loyal than me in recent years, but my god I'm so sick of hearing him whinge about Man bloody United.

Kane Vincent-Young was fantastic in his first dozen or so games under Lambert, scored an impressive goal against Shrewsbury if memory serves. Bad luck with injuries from then sadly.

Davis vs Mings vs Cresswell
at 23:18 7 Dec 2023

High praise maybe but I can't help but think Leif Davis has all the good bits from two of our previous left-backs (both of whom went on to represent England). Davis has Mings' attacking prowess and endless ability to just get up and down the line all game, albeit lacking the size and aeriel presence, whilst also possessing the pinpoint crossing of Cresswell. Is Leif Davis the best of the three?

how are T Levels regarded?
at 14:20 6 Dec 2023

So my university (University of Sheffield) does accept T Levels, but says only if they're directly related to the degree. I would say A Levels in Maths and Physics are a safer bet if he's looking at RG unis, which with his GCSE results he should be.

why Rotherham's scoreboard didn't have the time on it.

Or the score.

One more thing - we reached 31 points tonight...
at 01:33 26 Oct 2023

I really wouldn't have guessed that Kayden Jackson and Janoi Donacien would be the longest serving survivors of that team. (Woolfenden did also technically play that season but for all of 45 minutes before being loaned out)

Long shot but anyone driving to the game from Sheff tonight? Had been planning to take the tram but Stagecoach are saying its unlikely to run to Rotherham for the rest of the day because of flooding. Any spare car seats going would be much appreciated!

Roger Osborne - just watched Lifes a Pitch
at 14:36 30 Sep 2023

When he was young my granddad would drive him to Charsfield F.C. matches for whom they both played. My grandad describes him as very shy and quiet (being a teenager in a team of grown men) but terrifically talented. Frequently describes watching Osborne score in the Cup Final as the most surreal and unbelievable moment of his life.

For all the talk about a new centre half Woolfenden and Burgess look absolutely at home in this division.

Weirdly, I used to quite enjoy watching Berra slug it out against Hugill. Same with Matt Smith or Lukas Jutkiewicz or whichever big hard bastard Championship clubs put up against him. If Berra had his gumshield in you knew it was going to be a battle. Normally I'm really against ugly football, and I didn't even rate Berra that highly, buts sometimes in those otherwise dull home draws you had to find entertainment in what you could.

I've waited 13 and a half years for this...
at 23:07 25 Apr 2023

Sure I've only got to the Bolton and MK games this season but after sitting through a decade of absolute cr4p, which essentially encompasses my entire time as a Town fan, my God have I earned this. I'm currently 7500km away in Oklahoma but I had to excuse myself from class when I got the alert for Chaplin's goal to go and punch the air in the corridor. Up the bloody town.

Pick up 2 points from Peterborough and Barnsley and it’s in our hands
at 00:14 19 Apr 2023

I know Posh are decent but honestly given the ease at which this team got wins at the Reebok and Pride Park against similarly ranked teams I'm expecting Town to win Saturday. Barnsley also look to be pretty much out of the autos race at this point so certainly fancy them a lot more than I did at the initial fixture date.

Wembley Dilemma
at 15:18 9 Mar 2023

My family has two season tickets, one is in my name because it was easier to just renew under my name than change it for the same seat once I went to uni, so getting a ticket to the game wouldn't be a problem. My brothers/dad/cousin have noticeably only started regularly attending under Cook/Mckenna, so my Grandad and I get first dibs on the season tickets cause we were the ones who sat through the rubbish years.

Wembley Dilemma
at 06:54 9 Mar 2023

As we all know there's a decent probability Town will be playing at Wembley come the 28th May. Naturally anyone who considers themselves slightly a Town fan will want to be there.

I am currently on a year abroad in America as part of my degree, which presents an annoying dilemma. My year ends and my visa expires two weeks before the final, but I do get a 30 day grace period where I can stay in the country. Ordinarily I'd stay as long as I absolutely could, to squeeze in a bit more travelling into what has already been an amazing year. However Town have never played at Wembley in my lifetime, and having sat through practically every home game of the 2010s I don't think I could forgive myself if I missed a trip to Wembley.

Do I book a ticket home just in time for the final, sacrificing two more weeks here by gambling they won't go up automatically or lose in the play off semis, or do I stay for two more weeks and risk not having the chance to see something Town haven't done in 23 years?

This would be a lot less annoying if Town were just cr4p like the majority of my 13 seasons as a fan.

Remarkable insight to the state of Ipswich 6 years ago
at 19:35 7 Mar 2023

Exciting football in League One>>>>>>>>>>Boring cowardly football in the Championship. If you disagree you care too much about something you have zero control over. I can understand players having a win at all costs mentality but fans should prefer entertainment given that's precisely what watching football is for.

TWTD best 11 - having done the Ipswich 11
at 21:05 20 Jan 2023

Like to think my young age of 21 gives me a good shot of making the team. Played from 8 to 16 as a full back for a decent Fram side, U18s played CDM for Wickham. Now taking it easy as a wing back for a pretty average Occold side in the SIL. Realistically I could play a couple of divisions higher but uni means I'm not around much and I still want to start and get a full 90 when I do play. Current career highlight was marking Zak Brown (who went on to play for Ipswich) in a school match so well to the point he swapped wings at half time.

Very quick and have got a big engine, also very scrappy. Mostly play wing back but can play anywhere from the left of a back three (couple of inches too short for CB in a 4) to a headless chicken of a striker.

Certainly not going to help any chances of a fair play award.
