The standard of League 1 football is awful. Can’t remember it being that bad when we were there.

I’m pretty sure I read that we can’t put anything in front of the hotel as that is the only place that emergency vehicles can access the pitch.

Boothroyd just said on BT that he rolled his ankle. Hopefully that means no ankle ligament damage.

This is a ****ing disaster.

My main worry is the lack of plan b. We were too easy to beat today. West Ham, stuck 8 behind the ball and then countered us. We had no answer to it and were slow and pedestrian all game. Hopefully just a blip today, but we have to use the ball much better going forward.

I came from Camberwell 30 miles away. Left at 5:10 got there just as kick off started. That bloody roundabout off the M23 took me nearly an hour to get through.

It hasn’t been the Carling Cup since 2011-12 season. 2012-13 to 2015-16 it was the Capital One Cup. 2016-17 it had no sponsorship and was just the EFL Cup (as it is now officially known, rather than the League Cup). 2017-18 to present it is the Caraboa Cup.

I got in at 9:37. All gone at that time.

7th May 1994, I was 6. Norwich 1-1 Oldham. Rob Ullathorne with the equaliser. It was the last game of the 93/94 season. Things went down hill quite quickly after that.

I don’t know how people will be selling them as only Premier Members will have bought them and your ticket is on your card.

Yep

The inevitable has finally happened. The binners are now actually being paid to go and watch their sorry excuse of a team. https://www.twtd.co.uk/forum/460941/paid-role-for-ipswich-home-games(1st-team-u23)/#9 Perhaps if Webster does go, then the scum might actually do this themselves with the money they’ll make. They can the try and get a tiny bit of atmosphere and save the embarrassment of having attendances under 13,000.

Is overhearing something in a pub, going to replace that they were spotted in ASDA?

Totally agree Hogesar. I don’t know if anyone has been reading the brilliant articles by Cory Varney (https://iwritethings23.wordpress.com/category/football-writing/the-story-of-series/), but one thing struck me when looking at some of the 17/18 highlights on these articles was how many relatively easy chances NO missed. Coupled with this, we also had one of the worst chance conversation rates that season. As Hogesar said apart from the second half of 16/17 he’s not really delivered for us. I think there is a great player in there, it just doesn’t come out anywhere near enough.

Both teams seem to have decided not to bother with a midfield.
