Wow.

What a day.

My boy and I got into Ipswich at about 9:30 for breakfast, the place was already full with supporters and they just kept coming and coming.

Met two people I knew in the curve bar who didn't have tickets, one had come down from the midlands, the other from Lowestoft....madness!

Glorious day in the sun and the coach welcome, pitch celebrations...the whole thing was just the best day ever.


Wonderful way to cap off my last game with my son who's off to Uni.
Sounds great, very sad I missed. I used to live in Bury St Edmunds and go often. Too far from the West Country.

Not sure about anyone else but I'm feeling very relaxed on this sunny weekend. Nothing significant to be concerned about and a great premier league fixture list to keep an eye on.

Yeah, I was rather unsubtly aiming in that direction. Play offs are brutal.

Impressed with the magnanimous comments here from NCFC supporters.

Ooh, pretty much. Bit of gardening followed by alfresco glass of wine or two, radio chirping in the background.

Lovely isn't it?

Idle thoughts of who we might sign

Watching genius McKenna giving Southgate his masterplan for Euro domination on MNF lol

So much speculation on forums!

Unreal isn't it?

I've gone from cloud 9 to wanting to be back in League 1 with hope and optimism intact.

Just feels like there was something special brewing at the club, really wanting to create something, promotion ahead of schedule etc and a real legacy being made.

Moving now....just another manager. Two years, cheers.

Had the chance to be a club legend, but will never be remembered above Burley if he just ups and goes now, needed to be that PL manager we had.

Sky Sports reporting that his representative met with Berrada and Wilcox from Utd last week.

Agreed- there really needs to be something from the club at this point, it’s gone on for days. I don’t know what McKenna reps want but at this point it feels like any option to get out!

It will be so dissapointing if he goes....honestly, would a single season in the PL have been too much for him!

Why should a manager be loyal? Clubs will happily bin them off after a few bad results. That’s the truth of it. Ipswich may be less like that than other clubs but clubs and fans are quite fickle (we all are).

I would have liked to see what he did with you but I can totally see why he would take the offer from the other clubs.

Lots of rumours but nothing certain, it does appear Manure are looking favourite. I still think there's a chance he'll stay.
