Reply | Dogecoin - Anyone on it?
at 17:40 5 May 2021
Theres a saying that when taxi drivers start telling you what shares to buy you know its time to quit the market.
I think the same can be applied to football fans on forums discussing breakthrough points of alt coins ;-).
No one can convince me that Etereum is worth half of what Amazon currently is.
I only buy this stuff cos I can see that the whole world is on a get rich quick band wagon. The selling timing will be important. |

Yes absolutely. The whole thing is the biggest pyramid scheme, fuelled by greed and also using the same amount of electrify as ireland. |

Its just gambling really. Musk seems intent on making the joke coin the big one. |

Reply | I wonder if every single out of contract player gets released
at 20:27 29 Apr 2021
Im not sure how anyone could value him at 1mil now. Who'd pay that for a guy that has pace as his only asset. He cant header. He cant out muscle anyone. He doesn't have any particular tricks. He cant lead the line. He doesn't move his defenders around or give them any problems. he isn't even a very good goal scorer. |

Reply | Edwards
at 09:58 22 Apr 2021
I didnt watch it, but Edwards is far from our worst player. You've backed quite a few like Lankaster and Wolf who have been equally shocking in many games.
I know its partly banter and what else is there to do now that Lambert / Evans has gone, but lets give Edwards a tiny bit of credit. The EADT pretty much said he played well.
Im sure he's one that would get another club if he left. And one probably higher up than where we currently are. |

Reply | With all the talk of giving Cook a transfer window...
at 13:14 21 Apr 2021
Absolutely.
We need to make sure that transfers in are quality ones. Zero point in chasing volume of players again as it never works.
Plus Im concerned that this data approach to transfers isn't even being introduced until the Summer. So who is out there scouting these players right now?
I read Norwich got Buendia based on data approach. We have been so far behind. Bad recruitment has killed this club more than any other factor. |

I would keep Norwood over Hawkins.
Plus Id like to keep Morris. I only saw him play 10 minute cameo once before he got injured, but I thought he looked like he had something. |

Reply | The one thing which does bug me about Cook...
at 11:40 16 Apr 2021
But he's not singling players out. I think thats the difference. He's just saying collectively its not good enough.
And boy isn't it refreshing to hear.
This isn't a cosy life boys. You get paid to win us football matches and entertain us.
Are you not entertained?
No we bl00dy aren't. |

Reply | How long does Cook get?
at 09:19 14 Apr 2021
I think somewhere along the way you have to go with a guy. Its clear that the players need to take most of the blame here. Lets not increase the pressure on Cook unnecessarily. Im sure he puts enough on himself. He has until the end of the year in my book.
I very much doubt the new owners will tolerate long periods of failure. I think we are in a different scenario to Evans. |

Thread | Players desire

In his last two interviews Cook has said that he doesn't think the pressure does affect the players and Im not so sure it does affect our players a great deal (the pain).
He cant be more clear that far too many of the team don't care enough. They have given up. Some know they will move on cos they haven't played well. Some are under the misapprehension that they might be worth better things (which they are not). And some are just taking the money.
Where are those nasty faces? Like Magilton used to snarl at people when he wasn't happy.
Way too many leaving the fields smiling in past games after being woeful.
This lot are so bad as a collective that I cant even tell who is still decent in such a poor bunch. Theres barely anyone in the squad without a significant list of minus attributes to go with their few positive ones.
I wouldn't blame Cook for just dropping anyone now and never playing them again if he thinks they won't be here next year. Id rather the U23s just played.

Reply | Worrying if it is Colchester
at 22:19 8 Apr 2021
When Colchester turned up at Ipswich about 15 years ago, having never played us in about 50 years, and their fans treated us to abuse on the scale of Norwich fans. I decided from then on I don't care a t0ss about Colchester. No cheering their score at half time or whatever we used to do. |

It was part of the deal that they have to offer shareholders the same pro rata rate they are buying Evans out for |

I think a few on here need to reflect a little on the generosity of what Evans has done given the context of how much abuse they gave him.
Evans has written off multi millions in a way that the pension fund won't want to do. I suspect that we will have a year or two of funding where progress is expected. If we continue to wallow then the question will be what happens next. Pension funds are not likely to want to continue to throw money at it.
But Im sure the American owners know all this.
At least its a change. It feels like we needed one. |
