Reply | Can anyone explain why Chaplin started on Saturday ?
at 08:48 2 Sep 2025
This seems very simple to me. Chaplin on Saturday because he was fit and up to speed. Longer term he's lots down the order. He knows that. The club knows that. He goes to play somewhere he clearly loves. We keep the squad numbers correct and lose a salary presumably. There's nothing much to see here. It's sad but this is why footballers say that it is ultimately a job and that they are going to work.
Playing is merely the culmination of the work they do day in and day out. |

How about all the new players get ten games before we start vining the coaches. Because when you sack the manager the whole set up goes too. |

After three attempts even a poor trolley goes away. Go away! |

Made the goal. Played in Szmodics for his post hit shot. Led the line well. Not sure what Hirst you watched unless just on the telly! |

UEFA are just fending off the inevitable time when footie will be playing a glabal league - mostly in China and Saudi with the occasional guest game in the USA. This is why TWTD is so apt an acronym. |

Changing the state pension age increasingly to older age qualification is in a way dealing with the issue.
We will be more likely to take the retirement age steadily towards 70 before we drop the triple lock - whoever drops that as a political party might as well commit suicide. |

Reply | McKenna HAD a lot of credit in the bank...
at 18:25 15 Mar 2025
Well that's one opinion. Another is that we've all been in a big learning curve. We have changed a lot of players from league 1 to Prem. Spending what we've been allowed to spend. We've given it a big shot. We go again. Hopefully with McKenna in charge. Anything else is just short sighted. |

As an OAP now I've had to come to terms with being less agile. My experiences in supermarkets are increasingly ones of "get out of my way old timer". The lack of politeness and indeed simple kindness has diminished. One of the few stores left with some manners both in staff and shoppers seems to have Partners. The trouble is can I afford to shop there? |

Reply | People keep banging on about the 140 million quid spent
at 07:41 27 Feb 2025
Exactly. When Man City spent more than that in January alone you get to see how little 120 million buys.
What we mostly have done is buy younger, resellable talent that we can rebuild with. The older players are mostly either top Championship talent who may help us get promoted again or loans that can be returned. Of the three teams that got promoted we were possibly seen as the weakest. We may well finish the strongest of the three. That may be all we can expect. Follow the process? |

I think you'll find there's a tie in between Spurs and Culford School. Slightly ironic as when I was there we weren't allowed to play soccer! Ahhh those were the days. |

There's a 14k fan base that will forever be blue. They don't moan. They just go silent. Then there's the 7k that came back in league 1 when it looked like we weren't flogging all the silver. And then another 8k that me and my bro call the Roy Keane Prawn sandwiches. Sadly they are only here to be on telly with their half and half scarves |

When my dad was alive... he died 1978... we'd go all Town home games and may be half a dozen games at Carrow Road. I was in the Barclays when Fashanu scored the goal they played repeatedly on the intro to MOTD. I saw Cyril Regis score a fabulous goal for WBA. I was in the South Bank Terrace when 35,000 crammed in to see Spurs. I was also there when Town won the Texaco Cup and half the stadium seemed to be Blue and White.
In those days neither club was completely fixated on the other.
My team is Ipswich through and through but I don't loathe Norwich. |

Tot up the morons on social media. The vocal Mob. I've left Twixter because of the stupidity. Most of TWTD seems to understand the whole picture. Goalkeepers are always in the spotlight. Blame the first goal on Cajuste and Broadhead for not tracking the runner properly. Blame it on Morsy for being in the box and not on the edge. Then blame Muric perhaps.
Blame the second goal on losing possession upfield. On Morsy not getting tight on the shot. Then maybe see what a full stretch save it actually was. |

As a Bury lad now living in Essex I have been a ST since about 1970. I am proud to have survived all the Paul's and Roy Keane. Perhaps our American owners can rename us Suffolk Phoenix and make us a truly global franchise. Then it'll not matter where you live! |
