Jim Smith 2,339 Posted January 5 Bit bizarre to put this out. Smacks of a clumsy PR attempt to try and gain some sympathy from the fans. Not sure why they thought it was a good idea to drive through that mob to be honest. Surprised they didn’t get a lot more thrown at the car. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Midlands Yellow 4,083 Posted January 5 It’s a shame they are not low key ambassadors of the club now with a stand named after them. Should have been long gone by now. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

shefcanary 2,465 Posted January 5 Weird to issue an "official" statement - sure respond to a journalists enquiry, but this seems to be premeditated on their part. What are they trying to achieve with this? What can they gain? All it does is bring the spotlight back on them. Nope, deeply troubled by this. #head scratching emoji# 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ulfotto 644 Posted January 5 I’m sorry but I’m with Delia on this, just because Ed Sheeran put something out on his socials doesn’t make it ok. Ipswich should have already done something and let’s be honest it doesn’t have to be much just a canned statement about a few idiots would have sufficed 12 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nexus_Canary 1,027 Posted January 5 I dunno think it's fair enough, binners need to take responsibility for the yokels and should have apologised from the get go 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

essex canary 506 Posted January 5 2 minutes ago, Well b back said: Are you suggesting that if as a Norwich supporter I drive my car through Ipswich, I would deserve to be attacked ? No but who exactly would you want the apology from and why? The perpetrator clearly and perhaps other parties who have been clearly negligent, inconsiderate or inadvertently linked. I wonder whether the young lady injured in the visitors section at Coventry got an apology from NCFC? Using the logic implied here she ought to have done and it ought to have been public.

nutty nigel 7,643 Posted January 5 Twitter nonsense seems to be the order of the day. Wagner is happy to take a draw tomorrow. Delia wants an apology. And Ashley Barnes is leaving the club by mutual consent. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Graham Paddons Beard 2,450 Posted January 5 Agree with Delia. Any self respecting club would have apologised even if privately But watching the CEO feller kissing the person in the wheelchair on the head like a lunatic priest anointing the infirm , class is not top of their agenda. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
norwich canary 76 Posted January 5 (edited) I bet the Ipswich ultras must have felt well hard attacking a car with a couple of 80 year olds in it. you don’t get much lower than that, says everything about the ethos and morales of that club funny they looked sh1t scared every time they looked at me Edited January 5 by norwich canary 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Raptor 1,238 Posted January 5 Ipswich should've distanced themselves from the fans at the time Even Liverpool do that when their fans repeatedly behave like twats. Now she's just bought it all up again. Hopefully it will have been forgotten about by the return fixture and we don't see our fans out for revenge. I'm saddened I saw the clubs major shareholder wasted at the AGM describing people with a difference of opinion to her as whiney and then weeks later half cut again drapped off Ed sheeran but I don't expect an apology. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TIL 1010 4,798 Posted January 5 The Norwich team coach made it to the ground without incident because it took a pre planned different route so why didn't they follow that instead of the Scum team bus ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Capt. Pants 4,283 Posted January 5 Yes Ipswich should apologise, however Delia's wording is slightly odd as why insist on a public apology? Has she received a private apology? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

norfolkngood 1,091 Posted January 5 Anyone with half a brain would not have driven through that lot ! why that was allowed to happen Delia should be asking her driver , she could of been in the directors lounge well before any fans got there , does not make it right what happened but so easy to avoid Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Social media is full of scum the world over, football fans particularly. The issue here is whether ITFC should apologise. Yes they should. Delia's statement though is a bit clumsy as had they made a public apology we would have heard it 😉! Truth is we'd all forgotten about it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There are conflicting reports. Mick D says that was the case. Other reports at the time said they had been told to follow our coach in on the other side of the ground but opted not to. Who knows?
