Thread | I'd sack the fans
at 15:42 24 Nov 2021
Someone said, "we've changed the team, the owners and the manager, what's left to change?"
May I make myself wildly popular and suggest the supporters?
They didn't show up yesterday from the get go. 90 minutes of standing and sitting in silence, with the occasional "hilarious" snide joke or growl of disappointment.
The atmosphere yesterday was somewhere between torrid and poisonous. [Post edited 24 Nov 2021 15:43]

Had a great steak and ale pie at half time.
Nice meat, decent pastry and served at a nice temperature. |

Thread | #PackOutPR donation bundle
at 23:10 20 Nov 2021
There's something niggling me about this:
https://www.itfc.co.uk/news/2021/november/pack-out-portman-road-donations/
Isn't it effectively people paying a company for some tickets the company could have given away in the first place?
The people donating are generous. The people receiving are worthy. But the club isn't really doing anything charitable themselves are they? Apart from facilitating the transaction and marketing it I guess (while making £40 a bundle). [Post edited 20 Nov 2021 23:18]

Thread | Silver club ticket priority
at 21:38 9 Aug 2021
I bought a membership mainly for the ticket priority for away and home games.
But the Morecambe game went straight to general and it seems like the away ones have too.
Anyone know what's going on there? Seems a waste of money currently |

Thread | Corners
at 15:50 8 Aug 2021
Am I being naive in wondering how it is that professional footballers can't always get a good whipped cross in from corners every time?
Fraser seemed to have a hard time even getting the ball off the ground, all getting blocked at near post.
And the short corners were hopeless too, ending up pegged in the same corner area but without being able to make an unchallenged cross.
We won quite a few but did nothing with them |

Like we dropped down from the Premiership to rebuild in the Championship, like we dropped down from the Championship to rebuild in League One... |

Thread | Are we better because there's no crowd
at 16:54 26 Sep 2020
Do you think there's less pressure on the players without a crowd there who can get onto them if things aren't going right? And is that helping them play more freely? |

Thread | Why start the season?
at 21:04 4 Aug 2020
Realistically in League 1, what is the point of starting a season without fans in the ground?
This isn't a league built around televising matches for armchair supporters and neutrals and there's no international audience to sell rights to.
The domestic leagues that restarted limped to end for 19/20 at a lower intensity and entertainment value, in empty stadiums.
Let's be honest, watching Ipswich last year was hardly a scintillating entertainment package when at the ground where at least you get the fun of a day out.
Would anyone really be frothing at the prospect of streaming it at home with none of the surrounding matchday experience?
I'd say, just wait. |

Thread | Milk crates
at 16:17 19 May 2020
Did children really used to take milk crates to matches to stand on or is this a bit of tongue in cheek rose tinted spectacles?
It's always amused me when people bring it up in memories of yesteryear. |
