The number of Football agents who understand the finer details of transfer negotiations that post on this board is incredible.
Ashton would do well to read all the posts about Delap,so he doesn't make the same amateur mistakes again. The daft fool. |

Thread | Chelsea Womens team sold to Chelsea
at 19:44 3 Apr 2025
Apologies if this was done on here before, but I've just read that Chelsea basically sold their Women's team to themselves for approx £200m.
Just before announcing a pre-tax "profit" of £128m on Monday.
What is the point of the Premier League when this blatant cheating goes on, almost to the degree where the "big clubs" are virtually taking the preverbal Pi5s. This is the same Chelsea that sold the a hotel to themselves to avoid sanctions.
Whilst we all get the lure of the Premier League, surely its time for the big six to sod off to their Super League and leave the rest of us to play football. |

I've supported town over 40 years, I totally get ribbing the club when times are bad. Christ it's all we had for the last 5 years of Evans.
But the joy that some of our fans are getting by absolutely tearing Muric apart on Facebook/Twitter (X) is absolutely disgusting.
What the hell is that all about ? |

Thread | It was always going to be tough....
at 18:00 1 Feb 2025
Toughest Premier League for years (as previous promoted all went down)
Promoted too early (nobody expected promotion last season)
No room for injuries (boy have we had them)
Strategic signings looking for value and potential over expensive "instant hits"
If anybody thought it would be any different than this is deluded. The only reason we aren't cut adrift is down to Wolves being crap (although currently winning).
There's no point flinging around blame, calling people out... its what it is.
In a weird way it would probably be better for Wolves to start to pull away, because it's the hope thats killing us.
This may sound over negative but it's all factual,
There can be positives out of this ... but there needs to be some acceptance of the situation and some realism before we all explode in a massive ball of fury.
Let's not be those fans that turn on the team, we are way better than that.

Just spent a few minutes on a damp and dreary Monday having a read through the inbreds latest musings on "Binner Watch"
There's some absolute belters -
On our game yesterday -
To be fair to Binny McKenna, I think he's realised the best way for them to play is 5 at the back, an unadventurous 4 in front, punt it to Delap and get Davis as far up the pitch as possible while the ball is in the air and Delap is fighting for it. It ain't pretty, but it might give them a fighting chance. I still don't think they'll have enough.
Jesus
They just defend deep ,happy to have 20% possession and launch it to a lump up top.
Hardly West Ham 2003 wjo went down with 44 pts
Theyre boring and wouldnt be missed by anyone
Two of their finer members compared Delap with ....
Grant Holt and (I'm serious about this one) Ashley Ward !!!!
and my favourite one by far -
From "Kathy" - who on Page 42 (its grown to 45 since) of a thread purely about us states -
Had a quick peep on TWTD and someone had started a thread entitled "Never mind. Norwich are losing and down to 10 men". Rent free.
I've said it before and I will say it again, the strangest fan base on the planet. Bar none !

McKenna nailed it at the weekend.
Fine margins and we haven't been on the right side of them this season.
To be fair, we aren't getting embarrassed, we're usally competitive but tonight absolutely lacked "something".
Tough few months ahead |

If it gets rid of some of the pathetic "fans" that spout their sh1t on here or on social media.
Sick of the constant negativity and slating of our team.
Yes it's not great, yes we're making mistakes but the rubbish I keep reading is pathetic. |

Thread | So to summarise our "fans," reactions.
at 11:53 20 Oct 2024
Here's some "highlights"
Burns is a Division One player
Muric is the worst keeper we've ever had
McKenna probably doesn't really care
We've signed a bunch of "mercenaries"
This is like the Paul Hurst season
We are already relegated
I've probably missed several, but they are all geniune comments from here or social media.
I'm not really enjoying the Premier league, I honestly didn't think I would. But some of the guff that spews out of people's "brains" is off the bloody scale.
We are 8 games in. What the hell are some of you going to be like for the next 30.
Oh and please don't bother to post "hasn't happened" or "I haven't seen this stuff". I've read every one of those lines above since 5pm yesterday. |

Seriously, just reading his pre-match words against Man City. I'm not sure we really have any idea of where we are at the moment.
The way he speaks, what he says, is a level way above what we've had before (modern times).
This is a special period in our time - Lets bloody well enjoy this |

Appreciate its easy to get carried away and overly emotional about these things.
But I'm genuinely thinking he's in an elite group of players to have ever played for Ipswich.
I just missed the glory years of 70's and early 80's, but short of Butcher and Wark I'm struggling to think of a finer guy on and off the field.
Might as well stick him in the hall of fame now. |

I'm running out of things to say about this man.
In a team that's all about the collective rather than individuals, he still remains our most important player bar none.
In the ratings I gave him 10/10 today. Complete performance.
What a captain. [Post edited 16 Mar 2024 19:44]
