  1. A couple of decisions nobody has mentioned yet 1. Lino making a poor offside decision at Wembley. Win that game and we’d never had contemplated sacking Claude. 2. Believing Gabbi would score goals this season, understandable given his start pre injury but still a major screw up. Had somebody realised then maybe we’d have found a proper striker in the summer. The knock on effect was we were looking for one in Jan. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  2. We’re becoming a noddy club Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  3. So what if the players hated him.I ****ing hate them. Perhaps he knew what a bottle less bunch of fairies they were and kept hammering them. Still you got your exciting football the last 2 games. 10 goals, end to end stuff. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  4. I'll always be grateful to Kat for the sensible way she managed the club and the great memories of her spell in charge. As for Ralph I don't really see what he does, so can't really judge. As for Les legacy. I'll look back on a few good years ruined by poor decisions the past year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  5. This is why back to back wins could really put the cat amongst the pigeons. As I said earlier, do so and we could well be above Swansea going into May. They've got Boscombe away the day we go to Everton. Easy game? Well not if we've taken 6 points from 2 games. We could be 4 points behind Boscombe as their game prior to us is Utd. Boscombe needing a point or win to absolutely guarantee survival is a tough game at their place. We just have to put pressure on sides by winning our next 2. I'm not saying we can catch Boscombe, because I doubt we can. But we can make Swanseas game there a lot lot tougher for them Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Played well today. He's not captain material, never has been Been poor by his standards most of the season. Is head and shoulders above Targett & McQueen Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  7. Well that's it now, we're in do or die territory. It's down to the players mentality now. Can they get over today's crushing defeat and pick themselves up. If they can and they show the fight and commitment from the last 2 games there's absolutely no reason we couldn't win back to back league games. Swansea have Man C and then Chelsea so we could conceivably be above them if we do. I just hope the players believe it. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. First hour was the best performance of the season. Players gave their all, outplayed Chelsea and the formation looked good. I said to the guy next to me “next goals the winner”. Once you give one away at 2-0 you’re always up against it, even more so when you play a top side. They only played for 10/15 minutes, but they’re good enough to beat poor sides in that spell. We played a lot better than West Ham did, but Chelsea missed chance after chance that day. Play like that Thurs and we’ll beat Leicester. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  9. You’re a ****ing idiot. It’s not that “he isn’t isn’t up for it” it’s that he doesn’t give a shiny Shiite. Personally, I’d cancel the player of the year trophy. Not one of the the ****ing useless tossers deserve it. None of them. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  10. The establishment dumped on Powell an incredibly clever man, who is now portrayed as a racist moron. He made a speech warning of the dangers of coloured immigration, but the Wilson government actually legislated against coloured East Africans coming in and revoked their rights to settle in the UK during the same era. They let white farmers in but not the coloured ones, despite them holding British passports. The Home Secretary at the time Skate Callaghan allegedly stated that “Powell's antics were a valuable distraction” from the decision he made to abandon these coloured people to their fate. The whole era was a racial powder keg and no sane person would want to go back to that bleak period. But racism was rife throughout society, Powell was a great scapegoat at the time and his speech also enabled the great and the good to close down debate on the subject for a generation.

  11. You’re right, those home grown players were so loyal. I long for a return of the days when there was real loyalty from our home grown contingent like Lallana , Shaw & Chambers. Luckily Im also old enough to remember the loyalty shown by Alan Shearer, Jeff Kenna, The Wallace’s , Steve Williams. **** the foreign mercenaries, let’s get some home grown loyalists in.

  12. Lambert’s head was already in Ipswich, he was gutted Nicola wouldn’t take their calls. Source- A bloke on Suffolk FM a few years ago. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  13. Rock solid proof then. So your response to my claim that we’ve always sold to bigger clubs when our players want to go and had offers, is that Cortese turned down and ignored Ipswich. I take it all back, how did Cortese manage to fend of the attention from the mighty Ipswich, wow , what a hard nosed businessman he is. I take it all back. I bet Reed would have driven VvD to Suffolk himself had they wanted him. **** me, Ipswich. Wonder if he’d have done the same if it was Norwich Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  14. Course it is. But so is the club saying **** you & setting the criteria for the final accordingly. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  15. God, are you really that stupid. Strange that when we were the biggest draw in league 1, no big sides wanted our players and nobody wanted to leave. Except for Ox, who...........er..............left. Then in the championship, when we were flying , nobody wanted to leave, and I don’t recall any offers for our players. Then we were establishing ourselves in the premier league, the same. It was only once we had established players, proven in the top flight, that clubs wanted our players. How many offers did we turn down during your Pardew to Poch period. Which players were wanted by big clubs. From my memory it’s one, and that one left. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  16. As I said in my post, I’m sure they’ll be thousands of them with legitimate reasons for not going. There always is. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  17. When have we ever stopped clubs picking off our talent? I’ve been watching over 40 years and I don’t ever recall a time. Yes youngsters like Stevie Williams stayed a bit longer, but all players & managers stayed put in those days. The difference in wages wasn’t so much & there was no Bosman ruling. Every single player that wants to leave,leaves in the end. Its happened whoever has run the club. “Loyal core” , what a load of pony. Matt clearly admitted he’d have left when if we’d been relegated when he played, so even he would have upped and left. When was this time of a “loyal core”. There’s no loyal core at any club outside of the supporters. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  18. I remember being at work and following updates posted on the old bbc 606 forum from someone in the room. Just shows how ****ed the club was that supporters were following updates from an AGM like it was a match day thread. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  19. If a miracle happens and we win, I hope the final tickets will go to the people who purchased semi final tickets first. Before ST holders who didn’t go, regardless of how many games they’ve done. No doubt they’ll be thousands who couldn’t make the semi final, that’ll now be free to go in May.

  20. I'd imagine Swansea fans are pretty worried Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  21. This afternoon I had a couple of noggins with a Huddersfield supporter who went to Brighton to watch them . He reckons they were knackered and have run out of steam. Said they were there for the taking but a combination of a draw being a decent result for Brighton & them having a bloke sent off meant Brighton let them off the hook. He's convinced they're going down and we're too good to go down. I desperately tried to convince him that we're shiete, but he said they're defo running out of steam. Just goes to show we're not alone. Most supporters down the bottom are convinced their teams are going down. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  22. Proof? And as the phrase used was “reports”, I presume there’s links to these reports Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  23. Interesting day for Steptoe today. Israeli Labor Party suspends relations with him, but he gets Nick Griffins endorsement. Still with Max Mosley funding Tom Watson, I’m sure he’ll feel right at home. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  24. Where? Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
  25. Great support Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
