DumbleDelia is Magic 0 Posted June 17, 2004 If the scum''s defencive problems weren''t bad enough, John McGreal has just signed a 3 year deal with Burnley! Wow, says a lot for Ipswich doesn''t it when one of their first choice defenders leaves to go to high flying Burnley!! They''ve already lost out on signing Matt Elliott and with players such as Wright and Bent leaving things aint looking to pretty. Never mind- They''ve always got Santos, Diallo and de Vos! Watch out League Championship coca-cola division one league thingy, Ipswich are back!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ayrton Twigge 0 Posted June 17, 2004 DDCan''t say I''m keeping pace with the Championship coca-cola division one league thingy (thank god we escaped in time) anymore - but thanks for the update. Poor old Joe, looks like another season when that magic figure of 100 is unlikely to be mentioned (remember 100 points ands 100 goals) but this time likely to occur - goals against column. Anyway, you didn''t mention that wonderful Mr Wilnis, whats the latest on him? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gazzathegreat 0 Posted June 18, 2004 the 100 goals/points thing - wasn''t that burley? anyway100 goals against100 fans turning up to watch a gamethey might just achieve thatportman road packed out for elton john!!! i know someone who went, must have been good to see the place full again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ayrton Twigge 0 Posted June 18, 2004 Yes it was Burley - but its an Ipswich thing.Just remembered though - Joe did make 100 last year.100 excuses - although I wasn''t counting - at a rate of at least 2 excuses per match then seasons total would be 100. As we all know, Joe gives you at least 2 good ''uns each match. Often, considerably more when he''s on top form.Anymore 100''s anyone? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

susie b 0 Posted June 18, 2004 Well done gazza! That''s 50 without even breaking into a sweat!Here''s ten more just to get you nearer the 100 mark:Their mascot is even dafter than ours.My neighbour is a sad, deluded Binner.They don''t sing, and can''t sing even when a few try to.Their parade wasn''t as good or as big as ours.They only went up via the play-offs not as Champions.The comments on TWTD sometimes beggar belief.Their car park has been used for dubious practices.They seem to eat a healthy diet of very sour grapes.Beorge Gurley (need I say more?)They sold Gaardsoe ''for footballing reasons''. Ha! Ha!Who''s next to add to gazza''s list? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

susie b 0 Posted June 19, 2004 Said with real feeling d-block barclayboy! Good on yer!Just thought of another reason...my uni friend, who is a Binner, couldn''t make his bed or boil an egg when I first met him and I had to show him how to do both things so that he could survive, so, for lack of animal husbandry skills you''ve just got to loathe them a little bit more!
