at 10:24 4 May 2024
I expect today will be Jackson's last game in a Town shirt. While he hasn't been the greatest player his endeavor and perseverance to stick at our club during some very difficult days and make a telling contribution this season has to be admired.
I hope he signs off today with his held held high and cheers ringing in his ears! |

Thread | I never thought this day would come again......
at 10:20 4 May 2024
Like many I have been an Ipswich Fan a long time and while I dont attend as much as I did the love doesnt fade.
Two years ago, when we were languishing in League one and relying on journeymen and loans in a tired-looking stadium watching the rich clubs get richer, I thought we'd neve play at the top level again.
I won't be at Portman Road today and while I would have loved it to be time for a new generation of Town fans to experience something special that will live with them like Oxford away and Wembley stick with me.
There may well be tears today but this journey has been amazing |

Thread | This season..
at 14:40 1 May 2024
We have lost the least amount of games in the division, scored the most goals in the division and YET some teams below still call us lucky..
On another note.. All the media talk of championship being unpredictable and topsey turvey... The pessimist in me is still dreading a sting in the tail on Saturday knowing another booking for Morsy means he'd miss all the playoffs... 😠|

Thread | Last Season's last three games....
at 17:48 27 Apr 2024
Last season we went into the last three games sitting in third place!
We won the first two of those three and drew the last game!
I'd settle for a repeat of that! |

Thread | Norwich Hangover!!
at 15:09 6 Apr 2024
Never fancied us today! It just looked like their players wanted it more. Unfortunately, too many of our players looked off it today. The season isn't over but if we suffer from a downturn in performance and results that we had after we last played Norwich then WE WILL NEVER STOP HEARING IT!
While they may be promoted via playoffs - although I doubt it! Their whole fan base will be content with stopping us from being promoted and, if our standards slip following this setback, then be prepared to hear about it for the next ten years!
The season isn't over but Watford is a massive test! |

Thread | Watford!
at 17:06 1 Apr 2024
Watford are the sort of team that will give us problems, there are certainly no easy games in the championship.
Whatever happens it's been a great season but success increases expectations and its something we all need to remember! |

Thread | John-Jules
at 16:16 31 Dec 2023
Could John-Jules be someone who we're interested in?
Obviously we know all about him. Currently on loan at Derby until January. Might be worth getting him back on loan as what we saw of him previously wasn't all bad!
Thoughts? |

Thread | MBR Acres and LabCorp.
at 19:11 4 Jun 2023
Those of us at a certain age will recall the furore about Huntingdon Life Sciences back in the day and the discussions about vivisection and animal testing. I thought it was a thing of the past and then I discovered MBR Acres and LabCorp.
MBR Acres is based just outside Huntingdon and is the UK's largest puppy farm. They breed beagles in converted pig sheds and these beagles are kept in cages with an automated lighting and feeding system. They never get let out to feel the sun and rain. On average they breed 2000 puppies a year at MBR. Once these puppies reach 20 weeks old they are sold to labs for testing on.
Huntingdon Life Sciences use to be the main lab in Huntingdon where animal testing happened but the uproar of locals and the constant attention of the animal rights movement had them on the ropes... until the government saved them....they eventually were brought out by (you've guessed it) LabCorp, who are still on the same site and still testing on animals. LabCorp is one of the biggest purchasers of beagles from MBR in the UK. At LabCorp the beagles will be burnt, have bleach poured down their throat via a tube or forced to breathe in toxins via gas masks. This happens until the Beagle's die. If they don't die they are killed as they no longer have a value to LabCorp.
Beagle's are used as they are reluctant to bite and have a placid nature.
I honestly thought these practices didn't happen anymore!
There are alternatives, using these alternatives would put LabCorp and MBR out of business and the results would be more reliable since over 96% of tests performed on animals fail when tested on humans, as we are not the same.
Camp Beagle have been camped on the verge outside MBR Acres holding this practice to account and documenting the movement of beagles in a non violent way since July 2021. They currently have a petition asking the government to direct more money to non animal testing. Please sign it and share it with friends and family and on your social media as I'm sure, if you visited Camp Beagle, the haunting cries of the puppies would weigh on your consciousness forever.

If you wish to know more then there are video's on You Tube of Huntingdon Life Sciences, LabCorp and MBR Acres.
Thanks

If, at the beginning of the season, you were told that come January Ipswich would be within seven points off top with game in hand and had just spent £1.5m on a striker you'd have wet yourself and took it.
Have faith. |

Thread | Cost of Greed Energy Crisis.
at 11:19 10 Aug 2022
I entered my energy consumption into a price comparison site yesterday. The best offer was from Scottish Power and it was £465 a month. This is an annual increase of £3602. This amount is bigger than my current monthly mortgage repayments for my modest 3bed end terraced house.
As it stands I'm on a fixed deal till next September but this is horrifying. I couldn't afford to pay it. I see arguments on here regarding national strikes, boycotting certain media, calling for renationisation of services with arguments against all.
I'd loved to hear how much you're being offered on comparison sites and how that will personally effect you and your family and your personal solutions - will you cut back everything, borrow, refuse to pay, etc..

Thread | Should you automatically support Ipswich Ladies FC?
at 23:04 31 Jul 2022
I've supported Town fwa very long time in good times and bad. Like most I sat and watched the Lionesses during this tournament and enjoyed the journey to becoming champions. I do hope this creates a legacy and the womens game gets the support and investment at all levels to grow.
However, just because you support Ipswich should you automatically support the ladies? In my mind they're two very different games and you could easily support a team that has a closer connection to you. Thoughts? |

Thread | Left Wing Back already at club?
at 12:40 17 May 2022
With the undoubted coaching skills now at the club and a full preseason for McKenna and team to work on players could our problem position alrady have its solution at the club.
Kyle Edwards has undoubted talent and has show a willingness to work back. Once injury free could McKenna see him as the answer to our left sided question? |
