    Westy, your wasting your time with Carrabuh, hated by the Budgies as much as us, probably more so, a nothing no mark wum of the highest order, he'll post anything to get a reaction, an absolute scumbag ****.

    QPR away mate. ;)<ok>

    Ipswich Town and Atletico Madrid :emoticon-0137-clapp

    As soon as Stoke got rid of Pullis they have there two highest finishes.

    Wet Sham fans cannot wait to get rid of Allardyce (at least some fans have morals at?)

    You do hoof the ball for 90 mins. Your team have absolutely no soul and neither do your supporters who endorse the crap your team puts out.

    There was a time in the first half when they pulled us down to their level, but half time team talk/rant by AN and we started playing on the deck.

    Golden - we had a man sent off at the start of the second half, have you completely bypassed that!?

    Seriously if you wind back and watch the first 45 minutes and get your tinted specs off I think you would be surprised that we didn't just hoof it and you did you fair shairs of av it also. How do we have no soul?

    I've had some decent discussions with some on here but some are just plain deluded it's quite scary!

    Carra - it's a comparison, christ. Get your head out of the sand, why some of you on here are quite so obnoxious and really buy into the fact that Norwich play sexy football 90 minutes every game is laughable. Sure, you've got a good side but rightly so you've just come down and have premiership class all over. We don't have much ££££ and we don't have such quality on the ball! To laugh at an inferior sides game plan really is quite funny. We'd love to play open expansive footy at Ipswich, as would any fan but if we had this season we wouldn't have made the play offs. We'd have been 15th or so again. We can mix it up well. Sure, we go direct quite often but with Murphy winning flick downs at will vs pretty much every side ( bar you I'm going to add ) it hasn't been a disaster playing such a way. We get the ball down in games too for spells.

    Anyway, you've won and now face Boro in the final. Confident?

    If points were awarded for the altitude the ball reaches, you'd have been promoted by January.
    Plus, we've done the whole country a favour - imagine if the Wembley final was your shower vs Middlesbrough <yikes>
    Attritional hoofball plays blatant gamesmanship / timewasting <doh>
    Not exactly riveting Bank Holiday viewing, you'd have to agree <ok>

    Westy - I've not seen a single City fan say anything even close to "[we] play sexy football 90 minutes every game". If you can find me where one of us have said that, fair enough, but at the moment it just looks like you're exaggerating.

    It's impossible for us to play great football every minute. Especially when many teams set out to completely stop us playing that style. That's the point. It's not nice to see football being ruined as a spectacle just because one team forces a tennis match. But I accept that it's effective when you have low quality players

    Crikey moses I will give this one more go to the very thick bunch of some on here.............

    ** YOU ARE A BETTER FOOTBALLING SIDE THAN US! We have to work out a way to beat a very very good side over 2 legs. First leg was very 50-50, first half we did well, 10 men you killed us!
    ** Yes we go direct to Murphy, but he was top scorer on 27 so is that a disaster!? If we play open footy we would have come 15th or so.
    ** We've even come on here and said well done to you beating us. Myself/ Warky said well done. Now why can you not say anything positive or return the remark?

    There draws the season to a close for us.

    Excellent post Westlake33 and pretty accurate summary of your season (and ours!!). <applause>
    Good luck next season!!!
    No, not confident next Monday, but just hope it's a good game and may the better team win

    " Especially when many teams set out to completely stop us playing that style. "

    Seriously what is wrong with you lot. We're inferior in midfield, we're hardly going to let you get your groove on and tear us a good un for 180 minutes jesus christ! If we're doing spoiling tactics, up to you boys to up your game, move us around and do it that way! We're not going to put the white flag up and let you win.

    Some of the absolute tripe on here bangs of arrogance and very much like Arsene Wenger comments. We've even come on here and acknowledged you did well and we get this sort of rubbish back.

    Cheers JR Fan - you seem to have a better understanding of it than some of your other derogatory posters on here :)

    Err, westy, you're going to have to point to where I said you should put up a white flag. I don't remember saying that.

    I accept that your tactics worked, but I'm saying you don't actually need to do that always to stop a better team and not doing so is not raising a white flag. You can stop a better team without spoiling tactics. When we went up under Lambert, do you really think that the gulf in class between us and, say, Tottenham, was the same as the gulf in class on Saturday? I don't. And yet Lambert found a way to beat them without resorting to hoof.

    I'm gonna be honest with you westy mate, because I like you and your contributions are normally interesting and level-headed, but the problem on this thread is you keep banging on about how gracious you are.

    It comes across very much like you're on this thread only to goad us into saying things you can interpret as (I) arrogance or (ii) ungracious in victory. It's why it seems so disingenuous when you deliberately misinterpret what someone has written as us saying we play like Barcelona or that you should surrender.thats not what's being said.

    You say "now why can't you say something positive about us". Well, exaggeration much? Or are you just fishing. You can't expect us to lie so as not to hurt your feelings. If we're going to discuss style, people will bet honest. That's neither ungracious nor arrogant, it's just honest opinion. If you want lies, go elsewhere. If you want compliments, you'll find them in the fact that many of us have said MM's game plan was spot on, Binners massively exceeded expectations of league position this season, etc (all comments which are there and I, amongst others, have said). they're there if you choose to look. But it seems to me you just want one last chance to tell us we're arrogant or ungracious without foundation.

    Er, Cromer, clearly you're not familiar with FIFA Rule 174.8(c):

    "Teams that show passion, commitment and resolve while being comprehensively defeated shall:
    (i) be automatically promoted;
    (ii) be awarded the title "great",
    and if, during such passionate defeat they loudly accuse their opponent of arrogance and ungraciousness, such promotion shall be to the Moral High Ground League."

    It appeared a totally good natured celebration by our fans. The Ipswich players were at no time in danger, and some even shook hands with a few o the celebrants.

    Plus, the same type of thing happened at Southend, Preston and Middlesbrough after their play-off victories. Without rival fans becoming self-styled 'supergrasses' <doh>
    On the plus side, many Town fans have said how OTT this all is - the sensible ones.

    The police have a difficult enough job to do at a local derby without idiots running on the pitch, and there's nothing wrong with assisting her Majesty's finest with their enquiries.

    I seem to remember one of yours saying that if you win you would be running onto the pitch letting off blue flares.
    Can't for the life of me remember who it was.<whistle>
