Apologies to those offended by me and others clapping an opponent
at 14:30 28 Jan 2024

It just makes you a decent human being. I imagine the sort of people who got upset with you are the same sort of plebs who shout and swear at children's football matches.
We all love Ipswich and always want them to win, but sometimes things like this happen in football. That's why it's such a great game. I say good luck to Maidstone.

i agree, it was an interesting watch. They're at Norwich next, so it'll be interesting to see how they feel that compares with their trip to Portman Road.

Yes, Ryan Fraser was great, although Tommy Lawrence was equally impressive.

I agree... I used to buy the odd pie or Bovril 30 years ago but it's now so overpriced. Not really sure why people can't last a few hours without having to eat something.

If we were drawn against Norwich there is no way they'd play the reserves!

Leeds fans in Sir Alf lower

I was also stood on the Shed for that match with a Chelsea supporting friend. As all good mates would, I think he did his best to 'out me' as an Ipswich fan when Kywomya scored!! I've also been in the Norwich end for a derby game. I certainly wasn't daft enough to celebrate Darren Bent's winner. The only hassle I got was from the Police when I tried to break ranks from the Ipswich fans as we arrived at Norwich station.

No idea...but if you don't sort it out ASAP, we're doomed to drop back into League One.

It's just better, isn't it?
at 11:35 16 Aug 2023

Totally agree that the whole club is so much more professional.
Bizzarely sorting out the catering and bars should be straightforward, however they've been woeful for years. Beer can be easily be pre-poured five minutes before half time. (as is the case in theatres) this would ease the mad rush at the start of half time. They are also staffed by youngsters who I feel have never set foot in a pub. It's not their fault, but they need proper training in manning a bar. It's not the same as selling ice creams or pies!!

How did the pitch look last night?
at 07:27 11 Aug 2023

It looked great and the new pop out sprinklers were very fancy. It did seem to play far too fast and at times the players struggled to control (and catch up with) the ball. It'll be interesting to see how the players on Saturday cope.

I think we need a game clock...
at 09:13 7 Aug 2023

They're trying to fix something that was never an issue. I've been watching live football for over forty years and I've never left the match complaining I didn't see a full 90 minutes of action. Even when the ball isn't in actual play there's still things going on...you look at the celebrations, the fans, the players chatting to each other or the management, the seagulls etc. That's all part of the match experience. I don't care if the ball isn't being kicked/headed for 90 minutes.

Electric car batteries

What is needed is the technology to exchange batteries. You pull into the 'battery' station and for a fee, swap your near empty battery for a charged up one. That must the future as it will do away with all the home charging issues. They just need to get smaller!

Like them both, but it still blows my mind that some people will spend £110 on buying two polyester t-shirts.

Well, I hope they go up now.

Yep...I agree; good luck to them. With a fight back like that, they fully deserve to be promoted.

Anyone remember the Full Members Cup?
at 14:44 10 Feb 2023

Yes remember it well and as others have said, it wasn't really considered second rate at the time. I seem to remember us winning 3-2 at Man City in a really entertaining match. I also remember us beating Norwich at home in the Simon Cup (as it was later called). I went to the Wembley final too to see Luton lose 4-0 to Reading, in the same season Luton beat Arsenal in the League Cup.

Yeah, we bought one 2 summers ago. Decided to stop using it when the cost of electricity shot up and I realised on my smart meter it costs about £12 a day to heat. It was nice to use unheated in last summer's heatwave though!

Atmosphere was brilliant today

The answer to this is to bring back terracing (safe standing as it seems to be called these days). Then, as in days of old, people could stand where they like. Perhaps this could be proposed to the club?

Why have we got 5,000 more fans in the ground boxing day than in 2015?
at 13:17 28 Dec 2022

People like to watch a winning team and be entertained, it's as simple as that.
Keeping the ticket prices stable has also helped. With the rapid rise in the cost of most things we buy, twenty quid to watch Ipswich now seems like very good value.

Used to enjoy 101 Great Goals.
I also have a home video of all the goals/highlights from the late 80s , that I used to record from Look East and About Anglia on a Mondsy evening. . It's up in the loft somewhere. One day I might get it digitized....
