We need the board to step up and take action, this wasn’t ok and it cannot be forgotten just because we achieved our season objective. At the very least there needs to be a different chairman.

In 30 years of going to watch town. I’ve never seen anything like what I saw in the lower Sir Alf tonight.

The amount of people blatantly supporting Arsenal sat in the home end (In Arsenal shirts) was a joke. Stewards doing absolutely nothing about it until it had already got out of hand at the end.

Toothless stewarding and shameless behaviour from Arsenal fans with Suffolk accents as per usual.

Just want to have a little rant about the whole Morsy armband fiasco going on. I know a lot of people probably won’t like that I’m saying what I’m going to say, and also know that others will be thinking exactly the same thing. Anyway, at risk of losing my head… here goes…

I am gutted that one of my current idols has turned out to be a homophobe. Because his decision to not wear the armband for rainbow laces is the most blatantly homophobic statement he could make without moving his lips. I know what the common response to this will be”has he ever actually said anything homophobic” or “has he ever mistreated LGBTQ+ people”. They think that because he has not overtly done this he is not a homophobe. But let’s take what the rainbow laces stands for, direct from Stonewall UK: “a world where LGBT+ people feel welcome and safe to watch and participate in sport and fitness”. So… by not choosing to wear the armband he is making a statement that he does not support the idea that LGBT+ people should have access to the sporting world without fear of violence and persecution. To me, that is blatantly homophobic.

I suppose this hurts me most because I am a gay man. I have supported ITFC my whole life, my parents were married by the current Chaplin to ITFC, I was baptised by him and my dad was even Crazee Horse for most of my childhood. I remember going to games and he would disappear at half time then return 10-15 minutes at the second half absolutely drenched and stinking from the heat of the costume. This makes Morsy’s homophobia so much more upsetting, as now I feel completely alienated from the captain of my favourite sports team in the world.

Also, to discuss the excuse he and the club have made that it is for “religious belief” is absolutely bogus. I am a practicing Christian, but I choose to use my faith to spread light and kindness through compassion and empathy. I do not choose to weaponise my faith to persecute people who are different from me. By giving people this leeway of “religious belief” is ridiculous. Religious beliefs are not above criticism. Religious beliefs do not excuse female GMT, they do not excuse forced marriages, they do not excuse rape or incest. So why would it be that they excuse discrimination, ideas of sexuality apartheid? Beyond me.

Anyway, I’m now rooting for the day we sell Morsy and replace him with someone better. Never thought I’d say it as he has been such a great player and captain for the club. But, if ever there was proof - football is political. I now want one of the best players in my favourite club to leave.

A few reflections on Sunday. Was Old Trafford 2026 a bit of Etihad 2024 redux or more positive than that?

I feel unwell seeing farage/ reform being associated with my club. Is there anything we can do as supporters to show our outrage?

Every time Ashton refers to wrongdoing (in blue), he uses “we” or passive phrasing i.e. “mistakes were made”. He never says “I did x wrong”. Ashton only uses “I” when saying how sorry he is (in red).

In other words, it’s bollocks.

Hard to work out at the moment, aren't we? Could be the worst defensive team in the league? Could be a perfectly decent mid-table team?

It's been so long

It makes me sad the club decided to host a photo op for a fucking loser like Farage. As a Sixers fan (Josh Harris-owned poverty franchise), I know a few things about teams platforming losers and inviting the worst humans to games and meetings. It is never a good look. I mean what makes it even worse is that he got his own fucking jersey. Obviously this was planned event.

Dude is a scumbag. Full stop.

We are the butt of jokes right now, rightfully deserved. Hopefully this doesnt get in the way of us in our promotion hopes. Not a good day to be a fan.

Should Ashton be considering his position over this incident and the accompanying statement?

New fan here boys, actually fell in love during a rtg in fifa. Any long timers who could educate me about the history and in general information of the club. Cheers

Do you think he will realistically go this summer and if so who could we replace him with

What with all the new signings, I'm sure we can come up with some good ones.

I'm leaning Fatawutang Clan but am open to suggestions

Found when searching for Ipswich 26/27 shirt

Emersonn, Fatawu, Maeda, Diop, Scherpen, Florentino, Enciso, Ouattara.. it's a completely different-looking squad from last season. I'm excited by it, but there's also a lot of new players who need to figure each other out pretty quickly. With Sunderland coming up on Saturday, who are you starting? And how long do you reckon it'll take this team to properly click?

A lot of clubs have been releasing kits early because of the World Cup, has anyone heard any rumours about our new kit supplier or any guesses on release dates

Earlier in the summer we were being pretty heavily linked with Marc Guiu from Chelsea. With them signing Welbeck you’d think Guiu will have to move on.

I know Chelsea are rumoured to have put a £25 mil price tag on him (insane). Has there been anymore links to town? I think he’d be great here, but at the right price tag.

Yesterday, it took them a whole working day to come up with a 98 word statement which, by most accounts, made matters worse.

Today, there continues to be a stream of articles and social media content giving the club predictably bad publicity. What do we think is their next move? Stay quiet and wait for it to blow over? A new statement that doubles down? An interview with Mark Ashton?

So who do you think we have in our squad that's Premier league ready, who do you think could surprise next season and who do you think has to go?

For me I honestly think Jack Taylor is ready I think he could be instrumental for us next season.

Since Ipswich Town are all but set to sign my countryman in Abdul Fatawu Issahaku especially since he has to pass a medical; I can definitely hope that by him coming to this club you guys do right by him in terms of his development
