    Of course he doesn’t sound happy, just lost 3-0. What do you expect him to do? Come on CWR and start doing his Frank Spencer impression?

    So please answer this honestly, tonight aside, do you think we’re currently playing better or worse than we were this time last season?

    Unlikely to happen as Mark Robins doesn’t have the personality of a petulant child

    What slump? We’ve lost a game. It’s what happens in football

    You’re right. He’s definitely going to leave now because we lost a game.

    If any of our players think that performance was worthy of praise then frankly I don’t want them here. Decent players know when they’ve been bad. They will know why people left early. To be honest they got away very lightly with it. 15 years ago the atmosphere would’ve been toxic with a...

    12 & 13 have sold well. Should generate a good atmosphere

    I think a lot of it isn't comparable to be honest. Every club has its own backstory that affects crowds. If we had been playing at the CBS in 2019-20, and Covid never happened, what sort of crowds would we have been getting? I doubt 26k as an average, but I think towards the end of that...

    Whilst we do have support there, would you say we outnumber Leicester in that area?

    Why? Historically Birmingham & Villa were Warwickshire clubs as well. And places like Stratford and Henley in Arden are just as close to them as they are to us.

    I would argue that this is our catchment area. Population within that is about 790k, which is similar to Suffolk. Like you say there might be some parts of Suffolk that support Norwich, but its fair to say the vast majority of the county would see Ipswich as their team

    Portman Road has a capacity of 29k so 30k+ crowds might be a bit of a stretch! Ipswich are the same as any other club that spent a long period going through mediocrity who have suddenly come good. Of course they’re going to get good crowds. If you rank every club across the decades Ipswich...

    Incredible to see how much everything about the club has changed, and all of it is down to Robins. I know Sisu are now gone, but almost all of his good work so far was under their watch. Has there ever been another club in the modern era that has changed its fortunes so much without changing...

    Ipswich’s post 2010 attendances weren’t great in the championship. They weren’t getting anything that we wouldn’t have got if we’d been in that position at the time. Like us, going down and then rebuilding seems to have grown their support

    Not this thing about population sizes again. We know that it’s not comparable. Has people believing that Coventry is bigger than Leicester & Nottingham

    We lost to a non league team just 13 months ago. We shouldn't be cocky

    Its best if it doesn't sell too well during a trial run. I feel that the purpose of this isn't to see if the demand is there, just to demonstrate that it can be done safely and practically for when the demand is there. Too big a crowd in there to start with will cause chaos and then that will...

    He should obviously have a statue. The man has literally saved Coventry City. I honestly believe we would've ended up non league if he hadn't joined back in 2017. However he absolutely shouldn't have a statue whilst he is still manager. Praise in the form of a statue should only be after his...
