Leaving that friggin' huge gaping space is begging De Bruyne to cross the ball into it.

Yeah and the solutions don't seem overly obvious either. I was all for a salary cap to be introduced to restrain the crazy spending on wages. I then listened to the Price of Football podcast where it's explained that this may widen the gap between the Premier League and the EFL even further. :shrug:

We had our roundtable discussion on the topic at the weekend. If you're not sick to death of podcast style football chat, you can watch three Ipswich fans, an Albion fan and an Ebbsfleet United fan talk about nostalgia, safe standing and new stadiums below. I manage to talk about Withdean and...

As many points as possible, especially as we should play even better, classier football when the pressure is off. Plus each position is worth an additional £2.5 million I believe to Tony's coffers.

Very much agree with this. There is never any guarantee a new manager will be an improvement on the old. None of us could have foretold how Potter's appointment would go. The "in Bloom we trust" ethos is something most of us (including myself) ultimately fell back on, but he's only human, as...

Bloody brilliant. Lamptey awesome and what a beautiful goal!

Ipswich Town's new home shirt, celebrating 40 years since their UEFA Cup triumph.

Except for Yves' crown jewells. :lolol:

Class tonight. For whatever reason he just doesn't see to be able to do this in the first half of games when he starts.

A bit deflating tonight, most likely due to the third goal effectively killing the contest. I look forward to that nervous tension when watching Albion, and sadly that was diffused pretty quickly this evening. I can see the logic to GP's tactics: play a high press with quick players like...

It's great to see how much discussion this topic has caused and people's differing memories and thoughts on the era! Just a reminder that the talks are on at 2pm and 7pm tomorrow (Wednesday) via Zoom. Here's the link again to sign up...

:lolol:

I'd be very happy if we took him. Big difference between being good enough for United and being good enough for us, generally speaking.

It's interesting isn't it. I feel like when we hear those stories today we chuckle wistfully, but if we heard that Trossard had done that before a game, we'd be utterly livid.

Great to see this topic has stimulated conversation and hope to see some of you there virtually at the talk on Wednesday! Kieran Maguire and Kevin Hunter Day on their Price of Football podcast a couple of weeks ago talked about this very issue and they said that those claiming it to be a...
