One Team

Superb news! All the signings have been good but this one is the best yet!

Good idea for a chant too, although was thinking this might be easier!

Superb day @Magger1 hats off to you and the lads. Proper City. Respect.

At least 300 I would say.

******* brilliant! Way busier than I expected and superb atmosphere.

Sounds great, and yes be good to hold some back and do similar next close season, it’s been good to listen to (even when I don’t agree it’s entertaining!) the last few weeks.

Thanks for the information, appreciated.

I may have missed it in this thread, but I’ve only got the first game (Preston) downloaded to my wallet; is that the same for all? Is the expectation we have to download a ticket for each game? I’m don’t recall reading that in the email etc. thanks!

Are there going to be any more? Could keep this going with top 5 managers, seasons, goals, games, grounds, kits….. Great way to pass the time of close season.

David Seal ahead of Tammy Abraham had me laughing for a few minutes, comedy gold! Really enjoyed these though, despite shouting at my iPhone about some of the choices!

Hopefully train strikes won’t impact things.

Don’t remember a player ever doing anything like that before, really nice touch. It’s all a bit disappointing really, for a time I thought he would be something special for us; but this is a classy exit.

I’m enjoying these also but you are right, some of the selections seem bonkers (e.g. Paul Hartley rated above Korey Smith for midfielders), but it’s all personal preference I guess.

Still on for this time next week @Magger1?

Probably in the minority here but I’m really not bothered with him not signing for us and signing for Millwall. Good player no doubt and I loved his goals against the Gas and Man Utd, but some things are best left in the past. It clearly wasn’t a good match for us and him or the timing was wrong, so we move on.

To Mothering Sunday and at lunchtime. ??

Odd one isn’t it? Of all the signings last season he was the one I was expecting the most from.

What on Earth has gone on there?! Arguably the greatest comeback in their history then goes on to win promotion at Wembley!? If he’s been sacked that just sounds nuts. TBF Wednesday fans sound equally as perplexed by it all.

Agreed, it’s who blinks first now. A bidding war is great from our perspective and we just get as much as we can for him. We’ve been clear it’s £25m, but is that like a starting bid on eBay? How high do you think it could go? £30m? £40m? Or perhaps all the same level but different terms for Alex or sell on clauses for us?

Indeed @Olé it’s Mark Ashton we don’t like, not Ipswich Town FC itself.

You have a point there Fevs, whilst people spot it a mile off these days it still prevails in the corporate world. It’s like a game where people try and introduce analogous words or phrases to situations to make themselves think they sound informed; when in reality most people want straight talking.

Quite amusing seeing the Section 82 song become reality! (“20 mill Alex Scott, Alex Scott” increase 10 million each time etc.)

Incredible isn’t it? It’s like he’s been on every 1990’s management training course and is regurgitating each chapter. People have had enough of this in the corporate and commercial world let alone football. It amazes me owners get seduced by so called “modern” coaches and leaders who talk like this. The Ipswich home game is going to be really interesting!

Same here, not much advertising for it, had absolutely no idea we were playing.

Wilson has been Castaway!
