    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Consider this: Who are the essential workers ? Doctors, nurses, IT, care & support workers, food delivery, cleaners, supermarket staff ......apart from the medics & IT, basically a large number of lowest paid people in our society. I don’t see solicitors, investment bankers, marketing...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Proud yes, but quite worried as he's been in the frontline of this for the past two weeks without the right gear and to see the government statements in warm words is galling. The NHS and it's staff needed swift action weeks ago. They have been without safety kit and ventilators, etc. and if we...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    Thanks he is aware, but is trying to eat really healthily to maintain his immune system as best he can, so fast food is only a back up. As he’s a doctor at higher risk of contracting the virus he’s avoiding contact with the public away from the hospital, so shops, take aways & family & friend...

    Coronavirus Thread (Off Topic, Politics)

    My son is working on the covid 19 ward & doesn’t have the right protective kit. There are not enough respirators, so the actions of that idiot owner of Wetherspoons by not closing leads to a spike in infection which demand for them outstripping supply. The medics will be making decisions on who...

    My bet is the government will back the insurers as they’ll have shares in those companies

    Totally agree. The communications from those briefings has not provided clarity on some points. It would help if the government addressed the most basic of issues. i.e. Ensuring all out Doctors and Nurses had the right protective equipment, as currently they don't! So what happens when they get...

    The NHS is facing massive challenges. The issues are capacity ... over the past 10 years the number of beds has been cut. The virus hits respiratory functions and there is limited numbers of respirators.... and trying to secure more is difficult with lots of countries looking to buy more. The...

    SISU

    I’ve supported the sky blues since the sixties & Im loving this season. The style of play and culture within the team is fantastic. I think it’s tricky to compare the performance of different managers over the years. For instance there are numerous variables that need to be considered on the...

    Ipswich Fan In Peace

    The goalkeeper for Trakia Plodiv at Highfield road was carried off after 10 minutes and we beat them comfortably that night. It was rarefied atmosphere of playing in the European Fairs cup.

    Meeting with Joy Seppala & Dave Boddy - Thursday 27th February 2020

    From my perspective there are two businesses that both need a deal if they are to prosper. Wasps have a £35M bond to repay and desperately need additional income and for SISU to have a viable business to "sell on", at some point, they need security of tenure. Additionally, for CCFC to...

    Ipswich v Fleetwood

    If Ipswich lose again tonight they could sack the manager before Saturday, which could work against us. So a draw would be fine.

    Well done! It's very reassuring that you've managed to hold such a meeting with Joy & Dave to establish a dialogue and they are suggesting they are comfortable with the finances for being at StA this season. Over to Wasps now.....lets see how genuine they are in seeking a strong relationship...

    Next Season (RICOH)

    I cannot see a quick sale by SISU being realised, as any investor will want to undertake a detailed "due diligence" process and that could take months, especially considering that the training ground has a charge against it and we don't have a ground or security of a venue to operate from. A...
