YOUR season

[shabba]

What a day, what a team, what a season.

Tell me about YOUR season, what has it meant to you, what memories stand out as special for YOU?

I've loved this season, I've watched every game, many with my dad - a good handful at PR and even took my mum who hadn't been for 40 years. Even went with the wife (which is hard as we have young kids), and we won every time.

Some great memories of celebrating with my dad, our texts on tuesday night games. The ultimate was the match sponser hospitality day and its lovely that my dad is now the proud owner of a fully signed match shirt from a promotion winning squad.

Loved all the podcasts relating to town, and have really moved away from the Prem etc to really get more Ipswich content. Really rediscoverd my love for the club and its been so enjoyable this end of season run, the football has been immense and I think we all feel connected to the players, the club and the community again.



I wrote this on Sept 1st and its still bang on the money:

Just a random thread to appreciate what is going on at the club right now, especially given the years of decay previously.

Lets really try and enjoy this moment, even if it doesn't go as smooth as we'd all want, but look at all these positives.......

+ Money behind the club, and its good clean money at that, driven by passionate, likable, smart custodians
+ A special manager, clearly a very smart guy with a very bright future, someone who can actually take and improve players
+ A very strong squad, players either young and upcoming or in their prime, mixed with some wiser old heads, of course we always want more but the squad really doesn't have any glaring weakness.
+ The fans are back, great support home and away
+ Everyone pulling the the same direction, lead by a CEO who is really delivering, improvements being made in every area
+ Playing great attractive, attacking, possession based football which is brilliant to watch
+ Great kits, great sponsor - being linked with such a high profile star is great exposure
+ Now we are the ones taking rivals best players, and they WANT to come here, so different to taking cast offs like in years gone by!

Lets really try and enjoy this season, of course promotion would be nice but we must realise we will be winning alot more this year then if we are in the championship next season.

Its just so positive and I'm really loving it.




I'd love to hear your own stories and memories from this amazing season....
