Great journalism from Andy Mitten.

We're lucky to have someone with such experience, contacts and credibility who is also a genuine fan at heart, as well as a professional.

Great to see Ipswich back in the top flight. Feel sorry for those supporters who ditched them in the bad times - the extractor fans

Just my 2 cents. But my goal is to ignore the trolls. Give them zero attention. Block them if they annoy me.

I think the worst thing we can do on this site is re-create the ad hominem/ personal attacks that occur across comments on Twitter/insta/tiktok/ etc

Yes it's the manager's job to select or deselect, and to buy and sell.

When the manager selects a player I see no benefit for our club in doing anything other than offering that player unconditional support for as long as they wear the shirt.

It's an old principle but as valid as ever IMO

Yes of course there are no issues when players are delivering. The way I see it, it's the manager's job to select the players who wear the shirt and it's our job as supportrrs to support whoever wears the shirt. Even selfishly, that's in the best interest of the team and our club.

Hope to see a different culture here with the offline tradition of unconditionally supporting whoever pulls on the shirt for as long as they wear it.
