Going on that performance, and I appreciate you watch them every week, but I don't think things are as bad as you think.
You certainly looked better than Sunderland and you had a lot of injuries as well including, I think 3 front players.
A big ask to make the play offs but you never know. Good luck.

I think the 4 wins in 24 there are only so many time u can perform like that and take the positives. Same to you, best of luck

The fans would t like him. Ipswich are the same as West Ham - the fans live in a bygone era and convince themselves they are some total football team

That isn't true. But I think we are allowed to wish for better than tenth in league one.

I remember when we thought that.

Then we got relegated and realised 10th wasn’t so bad.

No, we shared a plane with about a hundred Chelsea fans they had a game in Bulgaria too might have been same city. Flew to same airport as us can’t remember if they continued their flight or got coach.
They were their “boys” too but were okay.

I had your lot in my start of season bet with Liverpool winning title and Leeds, Ipswich and Swindon all getting promoted. Guess who has fucked my bet!

The away pub is the station hotel, away only, 1 minute walk from the station. Police will be outside it. There are an array of other pubs that show live football. Issaacs on the quay if its a nice day. Punch and judy shows the game and does food. An array to choose from. The station is meant to be very good, but im not allowed in.
As for parking, I would recommend Matalan, a sneaky one. It is next to a big Buzz Bingo and the parking is free and about 10 mins from the ground, you will find it no problem. I found it this year and worried about getting a ticket, but you can park there as long as you want, for free. Never that busy either.

Thanks for your really useful tips, the car parking was superb option, most appreciated.

As for the game, glad we won. For the first 30 mins I thought your boys played like they wanted Lambert out and it looked like it was going to be a walk in the park for us but after 30 mins you stepped your game up and I was glad when the final whistle came.

Enjoy the rest of your season and thanks once again for all your comments and advice.

Pretty grim down here at the moment, expect you guys will have a good day.

Any questions regarding places to drink, eat or just go on Saturday or about the football feel free to ask and I will help as best as I can.

Cheers guys

Also wondering what the stewards were up to with your lot. Our Stewards have a rep for being a bit heavy handed

Yes used to meet up with him when Chelsea came to town and at their place in that big boozer behind the shed, tapered off a bit when footie trouble intensified in the mid seventies. I

Yes sorry Kilcoyne getting his name mixed up with the old city skipper, used to go to lots of matches with him and his brother Moz, Tile Hill lads, think Moz might not be with us anymore sadly.

I think Wiseoldfool is referring to the annual CCFPA gathering in 2010 (40 yr anniversary) when they managed to get lots of players from the brief ICFC jolly, to attend.
I was barely out of nappies in 1970 but that hasn't stopped me collecting old City progs since - home and away. I have a fairly battered Trakia away which I managed to get signed by nearly everyone (CCFC) who played in that match, including the top Trakia player of the time who the committee managed to get hold of.
If he's referring to another 'anniversary', apologies!

Wouldn’t that be like every team? boothroyd only became Hoofroyd when we started losing. There were no complaints when we were gearing up for a top of the league clash with Leeds and Norwich
