Thread | The most worrying thing of all
at 09:43 4 Mar 2020
For many years ITFC academy has "propped up the club", selling the youngsters has always been part of what we do, and we accept that as fans. However, what Marcus Evans has failed to make common knowledge in his "5 year plan" is that the academy coaches and staff have been told to prepare for a huge cut in the funding to the academy "if we do not go up this season" This is added to the fact that the "scouts" have been encouraged to "drop standards a bit" in order to attract "fee paying youngsters", meaning that parents who want to pay for their child to get coaching/training at ITFC are more likely to get places than parents who cannot afford it, regardless of ability. The coaches (trust me I know first hand) have already noticed a "huge drop in the standard" of the youngsters arriving at ITFC. They are ALREADY struggling to find youngsters fit for the academy proper BEFORE the budget cuts. The coaches are leaving in droves as they are being paid minimum wage, the administrator left as he was paid £18k a year for around 60 hours and the scouts are "paid" an ITFC tracksuit and 2 season tickets per year! Oh and we also "actively tout" our best academy players each year to our rivals to fund the academy! This has been supported by Lambert in full because he is another Evans puppet. Just one question, where is our future now, we don't buy players and we won't be producing nowhere near the quality that we have in the past. Just another nail in the coffin.

Thread | Who are the REAL fans?
at 18:43 29 Feb 2020
I have read how ITFC fans are "not real fans" by booing today. Despite travelling 5 hours there and possibly more back.
Are the real fans- "the ones who remain silent" or "the ones who vent their anger"
It is my humble opinion that a certain Marcus Evans needs to know that the Town fans have had enough now. Venting your opinion does not make you a "fair weather" fan, it shows you care. What is ruining this once magnificent club is actually how patient the fans have been. Marcus Evans preys on the fans who love the club and lindly renew season after season. It is about time we stood up together and boycotted games to hit him in the only place he cares about, his pocket.
