Yes Guthrum it was slightly tongue in cheek. My suspicion is that Ipswich did everything by the book and REQUESTED the postponement and the EFL/FA once again proved their incompetence by saying yes to it before squads were confirmed. The blame is entirely on them imo. However it is a bit weird that your club only ever named two players publicly and the one who didn't get called up was never named. I suspect thats because they knew it wasnt as set in stone as they wanted the FA to believe and so were trying to avoid bringing attention to it after they'd incorrectly said yes to the postponement. Bit **** for your fans too
That’s right, it’s a complete joke it has been called off although I’m fairly relaxed about having the break before the run in , can see it has its advantages
Their forum seem to have really latched onto my post as showing we know nowt about our opponents. Perhaps I should have lathered it in more sarcasm. My post was designed to illustrate exactly why Ipswich wanted the game off as they would obvs miss the 2 called up but needed an imaginary 3rd ( who they never actually named) to get it called off. Numpties.
Dear Ipswich fans, Could one of you give unstableblue some benzodiazepines please before he gives himself a coronary yours sincerely The NHS edit, no idea who phil is mate. Just because you're all incestuous and all know who this Phil is because he's related to you all doesn't mean we do. I've asked my mum/sister and she doesnt know who phil is either.
To be fair 99% of them are talking sense, its only one or two that are numpties. Bit like on here really. Well ok, on here its 99% numpty, 1% sense
Same with Leigh - not been in last 10 Jamaica squads and never been in one squad under their current manager.
From theirs....... "Going forward the EFL really needs to amend this rule because clearly it can be taken advantage of, even if I don't believe that is what has happened here" Hmmmm, yeah right. I'm gonna let it go now
One thing that seems a bit odd about this, is how come they knew their lad Leigh was called up for Jamaica a few days ago, when we didn’t know that Russell was until today (if that’s the case)
I think that's the real issue here - the clearly incompetent EFL/FA don't give a damn about fans either. Have we even had a murmur from them about the disgraceful Exeter postponement? I tend to be less worried about the actual game as our level-headed coach will just take it in his stride and have the lads up for it all the same whenever petrified Ipswich deem it's safe for their expensively assembled team to face us.
I can only imagine this is a country Mike Bassett 's England played against in a world cup warm up game.
