Comment | McKenna Commits Future to Town
at 20:25:23
This is brilliant news. This is the Ipswich way; keeping faith with our talented young manager whose attention to detail is second to none, who is respected by the players, who understands that success isn't built in a day, that a club is more than the sum of the parts, that our club is special place to be, that it is a club of destiny. We have not had it so good for many a decade. What a privilege it is to support the Town and to have McKenna at the helm. |

My favourite player of all time, an iconic self-effacing player for Town, deceptively good with his feet and his movement, and with seemingly supernatural abilities in the air. I would have loved to have met him, to tell him what joy he brought to my early years watching Town. RIP. |

Comment | Jackson: I'll Always Be Extremely Proud to Have Played For This Brilliant Football Club

Very sad to see Kayden go. He could always be relied upon to put in maximum effort both going forward, and tracking back late in games to help out the defence. He was a top professional and fully committed to the club. He also comes across as a very decent person, and I'm sure many of us will be following his career with interest and wishing him well wherever he ends up. |

I can breathe again. That is fantastic news - life will be tough in the premier league but now we have the best man in charge, along with his support team. Another gripping season in prospect. |

Comment | Williams Remains at Town
at 08:58:40
Even in the last game he played (was it QPR?), there were some flashes of brilliance: well-timed last-ditch tackles (some of them across the other side of the field), and a gut-busting overlap run down the right wing which Hutchinson ignored. People were just over-critical of his solo runaround, at the end of which he was dispossessed. He is an essential part of the squad, and we should support him fully. |

My Villa supporting friend told me "He was excellent in 2018-19 in helping us get promoted. Most Villa fans were disappointed we didn’t sign him for the Premier League when we went up."

Town v Southampton is the final game of the season. They should move it to Portman Road. |

Comment | Blues Legend Beattie Dies
at 08:39:55
Those of us lucky enough to see him play through the glory years of the '70s know that Kevin was a giant amongst footballers. I believe that he was the best defender that Britain has ever produced, who could have walked into any team in the world. He was the spirit of Bobby Robson's team and is etched into our individual and collective memories. Who can forget those rangy runs out of defence, blond hair flowing like some demigod, glancing up for an incisive pass, but often just choosing to just keep going, slicing through the opposition like a knife through butter. The excitement in the crowd was palpable, We used to sing 'Kevin Beattie walks on water', and sometimes it seemed that way. He was powerful yet graceful, and in complete control. 64 is much too young to die. As someone of his generation, I hope that that the outpouring of affection and admiration seen on this message-board for this humble legend will be absorbed and passed onto future generations, because his contribution to the happiness of so many Town supporters deserves to live on. |

I'd love to see Roberto Martinez at Portman Road if Everton let him go. Intelligent, attack-minded, loyal, interested in development youth players. Granted he hasn't done so well at Everton, but the expectation there is Champions League football. I think he would thrive much better in an environment with a shoe-string budget and without prima donna players. |
