Thread | Newcastle ticket
at 16:41 21 Apr 2025
Got a Newcastle ticket going spare - can’t get down to return it in time as I don’t live in Ipswich.
Can meet at the stadium to exchange.
Let me know if anyone is looking.

Thread | So much pride
at 05:24 25 Jan 2025
Born and raised in Ipswich, but now live in the Midlands. I’ve always taken pride in supporting my boyhood team against all of the glory hunting Premier League fans (my local team here are in League One)
But I’ve never been more proud than seeing my seven year old son bound into school on non-uniform days or into football training wearing his Ipswich kit with pride.
Even at seven the kids still poke fun at Ipswich (all in good spirit). Neither of us could wait to ge to school after the Spurs and Chelsea wins and give it back to his mates (perfectly fine for a 33 year old man to make fun of a seven year old in these circumstances).
Even his football coach, when he first went in his Ipswich kit, said ‘trust me, by the time you’re grown up you won’t support Ipswich any more’.
Obviously, it’s helped that since he’s known football we’ve been absolutely class. Maybe his allegiance will change one day, maybe peer pressure will get too much.
So proud of where we are now as a club.
Just some reflections from a man who is too exited to sleep before setting off to Anfield. [Post edited 25 Jan 5:26]

Thread | Pride
at 18:10 2 Nov 2024
As the anger and disappointment starts to settle a bit the main feeling I have is pride.
We’re up against some absolute powerhouses - not forgetting the money Leicester have spent in their last spell in the Prem.
I know we have also spent a lot, but we’re bringing through young players who don’t have the Prem experience.
They’re giving their absolute all and but for a couple of decisions or moments which have gone against us we would be in a much more comfortable position.
I hope we can use today’s anger to the officials to propel us on. We spent last year powered by everyone writing us off and we need to channel that again.
As a squad and as a fanbase.
We played well today and I’m proud of this team.
We can do this.

Thread | Sunday's Game
at 10:39 24 Sep 2024
I have two tickets for Sunday's game for me and my son but having looked it appears that they are a row apart.
My son is only 7 and even if we're three seats and a row apart, I can't really leave him sat on his own.
Seats are in the Sir Bobby Upper on Rows W and X 154 and 157
Just hoping there are two lovely people out there who wouldn't mind swapping two seats sat together for two very slightly apart? Or two people who maybe aren't going to the game and their seats will be spare?
I've called the ticket office but there isn't anything they can do. |

Thread | Walking in a Stewart wonderland

Considering we are on the verge of an incredible promotion.
Considering the opposition on Saturday.
Can we get a 'walking in a Stewart wonderland' going on the 11th minute? Be incredible for Hudds fans to join in (they don't hate him for leaving, do they?!) and have 30k singing it. |

Anyone else seeing a lot of parallels with tonight's game and Barnsley v Sheff Weds last year?
Similar time, although the Barnsley game was maybe a few weeks on. Barnsley the in-form team flying along and Wednesday had wobbled from a 10(ish) point lead at the top.
At one point I had all but conceded the league to Wednesday and was aiming for second but this game turned it all around and they suddenly looked more than catchable, whilst Barnsley looked a real threat.
I know Leeds are already an immense threat to us, I guess what I'm saying is that maybe Leicester are the ones to catch and tonight could be a similar turning point like that game was last year.
Leicester have a lot of parallels with Wednesday - top but getting on the manager's back. Not happy with style of play etc. It's not a long stretch to see them completely implode. |

Thread | Football Cards
at 09:46 20 Dec 2023
I've recently dipped my toe into collecting football cards, saw a bit of hype and thought I would get involved.
Not in it to try and make money - but I got a few cards from a box break stream and wondered if anyone can give some advice on dos and don'ts?
Also how to value the cards as it seems a minefield unless one has recently been sold somewhere. I.e. got a /50 card, but can't see any guide to value on it. |

at 10:54 13 Dec 2023
The pressure is on Narwich on Saturday?
The decade undefeated is all they're clinging onto at this stage, they're fearing a loss coming into it and it seems to mean everything to them.
We've got the confidence and belief in what we do at home to not have to feel any pressure. The worst case scenario is that we lose...not the end of the world. Give them the victory their season is depending on and we move on with bigger things ahead of us, comfortably still sat in the top two. |

at 09:43 7 Nov 2023
Which is by no means a moan, they've been excellent away performances.
After draws at Hudds and Brum now, it would be really nice to have a really comfortable win and just keep the momentum rolling.

I know this has been covered, but I’m getting really bored of this whole ego filled ticket mafia the membership scheme has created.
Just created a bunch of wannabe Twitter popular weirdos offering out their tickets to get the points.
Would love it if the club took the points off every single one of them. |

Thread | Would we be the least disappointed to not go up?
at 11:58 18 Apr 2023
Hear me out here - I would obviously be gutted if we didn't make it now.
However, what a time to be an Ipswich fan again. Everything is so positive, if we don't go up this year then we've got an unbelievable squad ready to go again next year.
It might be the third tier but what a joy it is to support this team again.
On the flipside - Plymouth are enjoying their run, but judging by their comments they're viewing it as an opportunity they won't get again so there is some pressure and inevitable disappointment if they don't make it.
Wednesday fans - well we know they weren't even happy at the top. They don't have a manager they believe in, the squad is ageing and I don't know how confident they will be if they don't make it this year. Imagine there would be a lot of negativity around.
So therefore is the pressure on us the lowest, in some ways?
Not discounting Barnsley to make it either. |

For the gamblers amongst us...
Don't know if this has been posted already - but we're set to break the record for the shortest priced team in the EFL (excluding last game of the season) now at 1/7 (1.14) on SkyBet to win tonight.
Previous record for L1 was 23/100 (1.23)
We're good - but is it a forgone conclusion like this suggests? |

Thought at the time it looked quite tight but wasn’t many complaints.
Just watched the highlights and pausing it when Bonne flicks it on it looks pretty tight, possibly even onside.
Big moment in the game. |

A lot of talk about who we would want and it's obviously one of the key positions we need to fill with a couple of signings before August.
What about Mo Eisa from Peterborough? They've put him up for sale, only bought for £1.3m so won't be silly money.
Assume he would have played at Bristol City when Ashton was there too?
Started really well when he joined P'boro just lost his way, think he would be a really good signing. |
