Midlands Yellow 3,934 Posted April 15, 2019 Once they start winning games in league one the ground will be full . Could be interesting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crabbycanary3 994 Posted April 15, 2019 It was embarrassing as the camera panned round to a half full stand, clapping their players at the end of the game, saying, with that 'level' of support, they will be alright. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Branston Pickle 3,635 Posted April 15, 2019 (edited) I’m sure they’ll get reasonably decent crowds if they start to do well....it’s that ‘if’ that’s the issue. The big difference in us in L1 and them in L1 is, as PL said himself in the run up to the derby, we had a squad of Championship players. They don’t.

Mr Tea 105 Posted April 15, 2019 I’ve just read his entire interview and it just comes across as the biggest a^^e kissing exercise I’ve ever had the displeasure to read. It’s not anti Lambert , it’s just basic kiss a^^^ing in the scale I’ve not seen since I left school and that was back in 85. its last chance saloon for him work wise and he knows it . I actually dislike him more than the club that’s employing him. grow a pair Paul. Go and get the fans back through skill and canny buying of players not like the above. Have some pride.

duke63 541 Posted April 15, 2019 I think he is going for the hat trick of relegations next season. Premier League - 2017/18 Championship - 2018/19 League One - 2019/20 ?????? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr.Carrow 376 Posted April 16, 2019 Incredible delusion. When we went down we were still getting 25k despite several seasons of dross and Doomcaster constantly talking the club down. There is simply no evidence that they have an extra 13k or so just waiting to flock down if they are in the top 3. They've been getting 23-25k even against us and even seriously struggled to sell out the play-off semi-final, with tickets being available the day before. I would say our fan-base is at least twice the size of theirs- we have several times the amount of Twitter and Facebook followers than them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Feedthewolf 4,844 Posted April 16, 2019 They'll probably get more ST holders next season, as they'll lower the prices and the fans will probably get excited by the fact they're likely to actually win a fair few games. They'll probably bring down the casual prices too, and do loads of 'kids for a quid' to try to get the next generation hooked. Hooked on the footballing equivalent of inhaling butane, but hooked nonetheless. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And then say it's a fresh start, thank him and give him the freedom of the city...erm...town! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daly 500 Posted April 16, 2019 Was it 41000 at Sunderland for a Div 1 game whereas they were playing to much less fans when losing in TP A winning side irrespective of the league will bring in the crowds Can see them getting to the playoffs at least and 18000 to 20000 gates at least Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You may be right, they may make the playoffs, but I can't see it myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midlands Yellow 3,934 Posted April 16, 2019 Will be hard for Lambert to make any more excuses in league one . I think they’ll do ok though and could finish in the top 14 if they have their share of luck . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

keefyboy 17 Posted April 16, 2019 Lambert is a prat. 3 wins in 27 where's the signs of progress. The guy is living in a parallel universe. How did he not get sacked? In the 'life of Paul' he is not the messiah, he is a very naughty disillusional manager. Ipswich are going one way and it ain't going up Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
