    It's my signature trade mark!

    I have no idea how it made the news in all honesty
    Surely 95% of people who are on thousands a week do the same. You often read the stories of players who have purchased their parents a house or similar.
    Its nice but nothing more than I would hope or expect.

    I think it was all done privately and ty posted it on his instagram page, could be wrong because all tweeting stuff frazzles my brain.

    I try to be to cynical.....I'm sure he is just happy to be able to do it...I know many have done such a thing in the past but two years ago Mings probably thought he would never be able to.

    Ty is a great lad and is a huge credit to our club both on and off the field.

    So this is your idea of the Ipswich board being more tolerant than our's? I guess you were just desperately searching for something you could be offended by!

    Are you really offended by being called a tool Dave or are you just trying to score points?

    Of course I'm not offended, just pointing out Guru's double standards. I saw a story on our local news BBC website because Ty comes from Bath, I didn't know if it had been published down your way, it was a nice story about a nice gesture from an Ipswich player, so I put the thread up on your board only to be jumped on by Guru who didn't like the fact that I had put an exclamation mark at the end of the thread title, something I do with every single thread I create!

    Honestly, you couldn't make it up!
