Binners trying to raise transfer funds

[lappinitup 629]

"Town have issued a High Court writ against Suffolk Constabulary seeking

£511,869 it claims it was illegally billed for policing outside Portman

Road at home games between 2008 and 2013"http://www.twtd.co.uk/ipswich-town-news/27572/The still don''t like paying their bills do they?

To be fair, policing costs are a joke. They tell you how many police are needed for an event, then the organizer has to pay their costs. Funny how it''s usually more police needed on a double time Sunday !

Police do not get paid double time for working on a Sunday.

[quote user="Trevor Hockeys Beard"]The comments after the Sudbury Mercury article could have been lifted from the pages of this messageboard.[/quote]And I quote :-ITFC is a business therefore if it cannot provide the policing and

security necessary on match days then it has to pay for it. Having

worked with ITFC in the past commercially it truly believes that it is

more than just a business and that you should be honoured to work

alongside them. When they don''t pay their bills and go bust on you owing

£30k + the next day they are on the phone expecting you to get on your

knees and be grateful they called you and invited you to work with them

again. When you do work with them it is not a simple case of being

awarded a contract there is always some little deal to seal like taking

an advert in the programme, becoming a match day sponsor, taking a

corporate box from them - ITFC if you truly believe you are a part of

Ipswich, pay your rent, pay your policing costs and pay your suppliers -

you are NOT a charity and i beg to question whether you are even an

asset to the community.Brilliant[:D]

If you think that we get paid double time for working Sundays then you are very much mistaken! In my dreams!!

Ipswich town are pure scum. To their very core.

Maybe they could rob the elderly or maybe ransack a special needs school

Can''t wait for their club to die

Maybe they can use the money to pay the St Johns ambulance that they still owe after all these years

[Crafty Canary 451]

Can''t the police do them for impersonating a professional football club?

[Jack Flash 13]

See they are now trying to sell Mings to Bournemouth. Their fans think he''s worth £8M to £10M?  Well watched him play against us 4 x last season and I think he''s worth max £1M. Big lad, with a bit of pace, but limited football skills.

[Marchant 5]

I like the comments on TWTD implying that even if the money goes straight to Marcus Evans, the Police should pay it back because its the moral thing to do! You couldn''t make it up, could you?

All a bit desperate, IMO.

It could turn out to be a massive own goal.

Besides, High Courts are expensive and, if they should lose, McCarthy''s transfer budget, such as it is, could be blown away.

At least we took on a Sunday newspaper, they are taking on stalwarts of the community.

Not sensible.

Taking half a million pounds out of local funds

Scum of the earth

[city-till-i-die 7]

Just LOL

That is all

[93vintage 16]

They clearly don''t want to pay the old bill.

[First Wazzock 768]

Or any new bills either!!!
