Pukki makes it look so easy

Pukki has been one hell of a find.

He illustrates the reason I feel (reluctantly) that City might miss out on promotion this season. He’s someone who can take one chance to clinch a win when your team isn’t playing well. A bit like, City fans’ favourite, Billy Sharp. I hope I’m proved wrong

Our “rivalry” with Swansea is significantly better than this...

Amuses me that Norwich and Ipswich fans think it’s genuinely vicious, they have absolutely no idea.

 

You should see some of the police conditions on it this year...

I work with an Ipswich fan and in isolation they are I'd say the 2 best behaved sets of fans in the Championship. Apparently they played up somewhat in the away end at Norwich last season, hence the conditions. Therefore you'd be surprised.

Also see thread below.

Now it smacks of overkill but...

Overkill or not, it appears to have more edge than you portray. No allocated away pub for Ipswich either today apparently- a pub was happy to have them but police refused so I read online. Perhaps Norfolk Constabulary are dicks however- that maybe the real answer? No alcohol on sale in away end either.

Hmmm, I think the following photos tell you all you need to know...

Interesting Wonder why then, the policing, ticketing restrictions?

Ipswich fans you'll be surprised to know as stated seemed to cause trouble at Carrow Road last season. If it was a derby without issues let's say, they wouldn't have to kick off at midday on a Sunday. It seems less hostile than many granted.

Then why no segregation in the ground?

Perhaps that aforementioned trouble last season was an outlier- dunno, but for a trouble free derby, there aren't half some big restrictions there this year!

I would hardly call it trouble having a beer fight amongst yourselves
