No mention on here about "Outbreak" on tv last night

Fascinating documentary about original outbreak in China and how it affected different countries and how they reacted (or didn't) over the following months.

I needed a reminder why I got fed up
at 18:28 9 Jan 2021

So decided to watch us on TV just to see if we played some attractive football now.

We don't and in fact the football now is more dire than 5 years ago. I'm out.

Following my late night rant yesterday
at 09:54 13 Dec 2020

I thought I might clarify my comment. The reason I have not logged in for 2 years is that I found the constant negativity a bit depressing and got fed up of arguing with posters regarding the state of my beloved Town. The constant (and it has been constant) belief that changing the manager since (and before) Magic held the post has NOT worked. I think it hasn't helped in any shape or form even though we seem to think it will now. The only way is to keep our fingers crossed that someone with VERY deep pockets comes in dig us out of the hole we are in, because no matter what some think the players we have now seem not to have enough skill or mentality to turn things round, even if we change the manager. It would take another 7 or 8 really decent signings to get us anywhere near competing in the championship and we havn't had that since McCarthy's early years.
Oh by the way I have supported ITFC from near and far for over 60 years and recently called it quits on my season ticket renewals at the end of last season. I await all the comments telling me I am wrong

Reading some the comments

I wonder if some of the people on here are actually Town fans by the way their vitriol spews out all the time.

My thoughts so far on the season.
at 18:28 22 Sep 2018

Like last season but with:
a) worse players
b) Lack of belief
c) poor leadership

What now!

Car boots can throw up some amazing things
at 13:16 29 Apr 2018

A work colleague offered me the chance to buy some Ipswich Town annuals of the late 70's and early 80's plus an AZ Alkmaar UEFA Cup Final programme from the second leg at the Olympic Stadium in Amsterdam. He had bought them at a car boot sale somewhere.
Absolute fascinating reading of the 74, 75 season along with 78, 79, 80, 81 seasons. Full of facts that I didn't know or had forgotten.
Articles of Escape to Victory filming, Johnny Warks first game at 17 and Paul Coopers record breaking penalty saving season.
Also Paul Cooper signing for Ipswich after Birmingham bought Gary Sprake.
Fantastic reading.

The first thing the new manager does
at 22:52 21 Apr 2018

Is to get 2 decent full backs in pronto. If the rest get rid of injuries and stay fit we wont be far away from a squad who could be there and thereabouts.

Met 2 Wolves fans on the way to the game.
at 21:18 27 Jan 2018

Parked the car and it was pissing down so retreived my Ghost Ship bobble hat from the glove compartment and started the walk to the ground. Passing Isaac's I heard the unmistakable sound of a Black Country accent say "hey mate are you going to the football?". I replied yes you can walk with me and I'll show you where the away supporters entrance is as it just near where I enter the ground.
Had a general conversation regarding theirs and ours chances of getting a result. They weren't very confident TBF as they were against a McCarthy side and knew what to expect. I said it would be 1-0 either way whilst the chatty one was confident of a 3-1 defeat.
Got to the subject of Mick and they still hold him in high regard with only their current manager being able to hold a candle to him.
They asked me what was the Ipswich supporters opinion of him. I replied 50% thought he was doing an ok ish job given the circumstances whilst the rest seemed to hate him.
So what do they want then was the next question to which I replied "change whatever that leads to".
"What with the owner or with Mick"
" Both" I answered.
At which time we had got to the ground. We all shook hands and went our separate ways. Them to sing their way home, me to trudge back to my car after another disappointing result.
Anyway it was nice to have a sensible chat with 2 lovely guys from Wolves.
