Comment | Downes: We Came to an Agreement That I Wanted to Leave
at 13:28:35
Downes should never have been made to train with the U23s ....should have been restricted to five-a-side with Junior Blues whilst dressed as Bluey ... I'm buzzing he's no longer here ... like I say buzzing ... you know buzzing ... oh just buzz off Flynn ... oh and Swansea are a much smaller club than the massive one you've just left .... bye bye. |

Comment | Sheepshanks: We Need a Beating Heart Again, and I Think We’ve Got One
at 09:42:58
Cannot question the devotion of Sheepshanks to Ipswich Town and his loyalty to Burley despite multiple play-off setbacks was astute.
But he made some shocking strategic decisions ... chiefly the £30 million redevelopment of the ground/training facilities on the back of one good season in 2001.
The construction of the Pioneer stand in 1982 had a been a major financial factor in Town's rapid top flight decline after the departure of Sir Bobby.
Instead of heeding a crucial mistake in Town's history Sheepshanks chose to repeat it on a much grander scale and with far less justification.
Remember also when he reportedly sought to motivate players ahead of a league game against Arsenal by getting them to listen to Search For The Hero by M People. We lost two nil and were relegated soon after ... all seemed a bit left field and slightly comical.
Nevertheless he was for a time feted in the game as a mercurial administrator which never quite stacked up given Town's financial woes ... and ultimately he will be remembered for the fatal hospital pass that was his decision to sell to Evans.

Comment | Ashton: There Feels a Distance Between the Fans and the Club
at 08:54:49
Hi Phil No wish to clash keyboards given the excellent service you provide to us Town fans far and wide. Just having watched the forum online it felt really positive after years of genuine hopelessness so the headline / lead somewhat jarred. By all means reference the sense of historic disconnect but surely the headline lead was Ashton's promise of more signings to come before transfer window closes. |

Comment | Ashton: There Feels a Distance Between the Fans and the Club
at 23:05:05
The story's peculiar lead provides an entirely distorted impression of what was an overwhelmingly positive forum.
Ashton's passing comment was an obvious reference to the old regime and most supporters clearly feel an entirely renewed sense of connection with the club...pointless negativity... opening paragraph is pointlessly negative and serves only as a shambolic misrepresentation of the event. |

Ossie Ardiles style flick on Blackburn debut promised so much but sadly proved the high-water mark in an otherwise forgettable Portman Road career.

Comment | Town Takeover Close
at 18:31:17
The potential upside for U.S. investors buying Ipswich Town is far, far greater than say Burnley who were also recently snapped up by Americans.
The only way is down for Burnley who cannot get any bigger and in normal times struggle to fill pokey Turf Moor even in the Premier League.
In the right hands Town could fly to become a regional football powerhouse in what is a huge catchment area with no genuine East Anglian rival.

Comment | Blue Action Call For Lambert Exit
at 15:47:37
Absolutely the right call, should never have been appointed in the first place. All spin and no substance. Prickly, rigid and stubborn, as a football manager PL is a busted flush. His post match interviews are surreal and often bear no rational relationship with the game of football. Act now or regret massively later. |

".. relatively short trip to Cambridgeshire...".. Peterborough is 93 miles from Ipswich.. hardly round the corner. Great turn out from Blue Army... we will win all remaining games this month and be top by September... |

So apparently an innovative way to woo back casual supporters is to make the task of buying tickets on match day more inconvenient...genius... |

Comment | Lambert: Without Money It's a Different Project
at 06:38:18
All squads are frugally assembled in League One even Sunderland are cash strapped...
Transfers fees are few and far between and with the odd exception are peanuts in comparison to Championship figures.
For Paul Lambert a top six finish is the bare minimum requirement... frankly anything short of promotion would be awful.

Well said BlueySwede ...
Anyone recall how they behaved at Elland Road when Alan Lee's equaliser effectively sent them down in 2007 ... just google a few match reports if you've forgotten ....
Hopefully we'll put them in the play offs. |
