Bill 1,788 Posted November 28, 2020 (edited) It appears the binmeister (Phil Ham-twtd) has been banned by Mr Lambert Something to do with the team against Lincoln being put up early on the forum Naturally this has led to much bucket kicking over and pitchfork waving amongst the peasantry - so those who might have an account there might not feel it is a good time to post pro Lambert comments Not the done thing to wind up the simple suffolk sodkickers is it 😋 ? https://www.twtd.co.uk/forum/491734/banhammer!/#102 Edited November 29, 2020 by Bill Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sonyc 5,511 Posted November 28, 2020 A few do realise it's Evans that is the main problem. It will get worse because Sunderland, Fleetwood and even Doncaster could overtake them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
keelansgrandad 6,679 Posted November 28, 2020 Its very reasonable to blame Evans just as many blamed Delia for last season. Fact is, there seems to be a feeling that any team with a special moment in history is "a big club that should be in the Prem". In that case the EPL would have 40 teams. If you are out of the top 26 for any length of time, all you have left is history. But they are right about Lambert. We were his only success. A one trick pony who was given a lengthy contract. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have to admit looking at the League one table around 5pm as I needed something to distract me from my frustration. It's one team that has given a lift in the last few years...unfailingly so. Like something happening in very slow motion. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They're following last season where they started strongly, Lambert gets his teams fit and they're good at getting scrappy results against the weaker teams, only to slide down the table after playing the better teams. They lost to Hull (1st) Charlton (3rd) Lincoln (4th) Sunderland (8th) and Doncaster (10th), and of their eight wins the highest placed team they've beaten is Accrington in 9th.

kirku 1,332 Posted November 29, 2020 On the one hand, I feel a bit sorry for their fans. Evans has totally ruined their club and it's almost impossible to see a viable route back to Championship stability for them unless he sells up. This could happen to lots of clubs, ones much bigger than Ipswich, look at Sunderland. We should be thankful that through some shrewd decisions and liberal slices of luck that we're not in a similar boat. The flipside is that the fans were so blinded by folktales of their meaningless history, as if the black and white photos they've seen of an extinct cup make a difference, they couldn't see how far they were punching above their weight under McCarthy. They're a small town club with a tiny budget. The response to relegation amongst their fans that I know was pretty ridiculous. Hugely overestimating their size and the ease of which they'd get out of that division, oblivious to how difficult much bigger and better clubs found it. They're definitely culpable.

They owe him over £100 million and Evans is "only" £750 million. For many people of this level of wealth this is too much to write off - better to hang, cut the subsidy and wait for something to "turn up." We see it time and time again - the fans get what they want - a "sugar daddy" and the pay for it with years of mediocrity. The mystery to me is that there are still fans who want the same here.😲 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Isn’t some of that paper losses, which have in turn allowed him to save tax on profits elsewhere? And if the alternative is sell up and lose, say, £10 million, or carry on losing £2 million every year, the decision might look different. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lamberts glorious three season spell at Norwich is one of of the most productive in our history, something I'll always respect him for but its more obvious than ever that the tactical nous of Ian Culverhouse played a major role in that! For a bloke (Lambert) who saw leaving Norwich as another step up the ladder in his quest to become the next Alex Ferguson, his pitiful existence now as a has been (debatable if he ever was!)) manager clinging onto what will likely be his last managerial role at a car crash underachieving League 1 club must be galling for him! - For the binmen who sussed Lambert out last season, it must be even more gutrenching to see their decaying club managed by such an incompetent blagger!

alex_ncfc 662 Posted November 29, 2020 It's actually hilarious that some of them across the border think that the likes of Eddie Howe or Nigel Pearson would relish the chance to manage them and would actually go there.
