| Forum Thread | Sheeran throws his hat in the ring... at 10:14 10 Dec 2021
Very close source has let it slip that Ed Sheeran is rumoured to be hanging up the no. 17 shirt in favour of the gaffers trackie. Having already formed a solid partnership with club CEO Mark Ashton with his annual use of his executive box, this is seen as a rapid rise up the favourites list by the bookies. Sheeran is quoted as saying: "I think I can really bring something to the party here. I'm writing a special song at the moment, and I have shared the secret + - x = formula with the boys and they are building it into their training sessions as we speak. From the box I get a real sense of where we're going wrong, and me and Kieron have discussed this over a beer. He's a top bloke, Ipswich through and through which is important. I'm organising a special bus for fans in Framlingham which I know means a lot too. All I can say is watch this space, exiting times ahead" Apparently bookies have moved Sheeran to 6-1 second favourite behind Thomas Tuchel who is now unsettled having seen the Ipswich plans and opportunity. |

"Almost two-thirds of fans of English Football League clubs want video assistant referees (VAR) and goalline technology introduced, according to a survey of nearly 28,000 supporters" ... BBC SPORT Really? I'll take the goalline technology, but you can keep the VAR - the penalty debacles in the Womens World Cup, all being retaken because the keeper moved, players starting to play for VAR, players demanding VAR, refs petrified to make their own decisions - not sure who the 28,000 were but they didn't ask me - you can keep it. |
| Forum Reply | Which academy youth product is going to have the biggest impact this season? at 16:36 10 Jul 2019
Gone with Lankester - if he can get through with no injuries, and maintain the "no fear" approach of youth that seems to disappear all too quickly, I think he could make an impact - if he gets a game. Bishop leaves the youth list now for me, Dozzell has had chances to make a name but drifts out of a game too quickly and has yet to fill out - Downes maybe... |
