Not sure if frank or any player ever reads this forum

Lets be honest we are probably going up , and Frank will now forever hold a special place at the club no matter what happens next season For me its the fact hes probably given me the opportunity to watch premier league football again with the old man and my kids .

He will sit at the top table with jimmy , john george and mark and will forever be a club legend .

Despite me shitting the bed earlier in the season its the best season ive had supporting the club and frank and his team deserve all the plaudits for the wonderful job theyve done over the last 18 months



We arent always in agreement but we all want the same thing


Lets finish the job and have the biggest celebration this city has seen since 1987 PUSB 🩵

Him coming in shifted the entire mentality of the club. No longer the underdog. No longer looking at what other teams have. It’s about what we have and having the bollox to own it and be top.

Doug got a lot of stick for his infamous CWR interview when Robins was sacked but he was bang on about everything - including the need for an elite coaching set up to support the ‘deck’ of the players we had.

I've enjoyed all the celebrations, trophies , playoffs ,autos that have preceded this .
Don't get me wrong this is arguably the biggest season by a distance but Notts County away was , for me , the catalysts in everything we've become

He's been nothing short of magnificent.

He's improved players, made us tougher to beat and has a great affinity with both fans and players alike.

Universally loved now.

Comes across well in interviews and always gives an honest assesment at the end of a game.

He's been a breath of fresh air.

It's been an incredible achievement.
Hasn't spent a fortune, out performed 4 parachute clubs, I'd imagine it ranks pretty high in the promotion charts since parachute payments were introduced.

He has more than earned the right to a full season in the Prem no matter what and then the right to go again in this league if relegated.

I'm reminded of a conversation I had the day I met my Aunt for the first time in late 2014 (long story that one, won't bore everyone with details). Obviously at the time, the club was sinking towards it's lowest ebb with the seemingly never ending off field nonsense. We got to talking about the good old days with City. The cup win, the top flight days. Some of the great names she'd been lucky enough to see throughout the years. I remember saying that we'd probably never see those kind of days again. At the time, given what a mess everything was, it didn't seem an unreasonable conclusion. Certainly didn't seem like we were going to be having any new Legends any time soon.

And yet, here we are. On the brink of something special. I've thought about that conversation a lot through the season, how far we've come since those days. And to think, it even managed to get worse from there before it got better!

I expect us to give it a valiant effort and if we come up short we come up short, the gulf is enormous. But we will give it everything in the process

This isn't even an emotional thing for me, it's just practical.
And it carries on the stability we've had for the last 8 or 9 years which I think is a massive factor in our success.

I'm not sure he'd stick around for another season in championship tbh

We gotta back him in prem to keep him. He's already linked to Chelsea and England jobs. His stock won't dip back to second tier imo

I went with my dad to the L2 playoff final and he was doing ok. We went to the 2023 final and he struggled a lot on a bad leg that he got hospitalised for over Christmas. He couldn’t go to the 2024 cup semi final because of that.

He is still not in a good way but I want to get him there to see us get promotion in the flesh.

I’m sure Ipswich thought the same a few seasons ago…it’s just really tough. We will at a minimum take some scalps at home though
