Ipswich Town v Aston Villa preview and matchday thread

[barmy billy]

Jesus christ Billy lighten up, I was actually trying to have a laugh hence the LoL and lighten the mood !! You know what really pisses me off is that I seem to be the only one that ever gets bloody stick despite several posters agreeing with how I saw/ see things and yet nothing is said, it really is starting to get to me so its best I shut the f*ck up.

I edited my original reply for the "good of the forum"

I'm sorry, but I've had enough of this nonsense. Something is going seriously wrong with this forum and I want no part of it.

[marko69]

Billy, I'm certainly not speaking on behalf of Mike, but I am on behalf of the forum........ Get some perspective! Seriously, go on that TWTD forum...... Or check out a Hibs or Hearts forum. This place is kindergarten, mate.

Not long ago Billy i had similar opinion. I got pelted because i was born in Norwich nevermind i'm related distantly to the Cobbolds. Thing is its opinions. I'm happy to listen to most because we all care. Its ITFC for goodness sake.

I might not agree, hell you might think i talk a load of old tosh, My wife does but shes a city fan.. Thing is we all care. For me and i hope Mike you to. Just listen and replying be respectful because at end of day we all want the same thing.
I love opinions, that's one of the reasons why football is best sport on the Earth...

Yesterdays game for me was not boring, In fact i marveled at the skill on display for i was a defender and i thought defensively we were brilliant. Going forward we had 17 shots, 4 of which were on target plus another hitting the post and two on the line clearances.

Aston 'Multi Millions' Villa had 14 shots NONE of which made our goalkeeper troubled.

[Frosty]

Come on chaps, isn't it sorta good to see a bit of spirit on here regardless of opinions??

Just remember this is only a small 'site' (think of it as your local pub to meet after a game), using that analogy, I have had far bigger arguments with mates of 30 years on various subjects and no-one has lost an eye or anything.

Some posts could perhaps be 'edited' but we are grown ups for gods sake and I don't feel like being a Policeman (nor should I)

cheers Dave

I've my battles on here as you well know Dave, but they have always been with individuals and not aimed at the forum as a whole. I have always apologized if proven out of order. The thing is that now people are abused and put down if rhey dare to disagree in any way with the 'experts' who go to every game, on the basis that 'you were not there so how can you know what you are talking about.' The real fans issue raises its head regularly as well.

It's not fair the people should be put off stating what they think because they know what sort of muck is going to be thrown at them. When challenged you get the 'I say it as I see it' and similar excuses thrown back you. I agree with Marko about enjoying the match reports, they are first class and are to be encouraged, but the verbal abuse is not necessary and not warranted.

Sorry, but I have had enough.

[number 9]

Frosty, are we allowed to post highlights on the forum? I think that would be a great way for everyone to express their opinion based on what they see. I know it's not the same as being there, but it would certainly make for an interesting post-match thread.

[arana peligrosa]

Unfortunately, what was said in the above is accurate enough, and as for wanting to stay away : I don't fault you for it.

There are certain names that feel they have a license to attack other users and just use whatever language they feel is necessary - because :

A - They know they'll get away with it

B - They're too dumb to realize the potential consequences of their actions


One established member was recently labeled a 'cocksucker' for speaking out after a score (along with an instance of other derogatory terms) while I myself was subject to unnecessary abuse by some "abrasive degenerate half-wits" (for want of better words) and all for some minor obscure difference of opinion.

Bottom line, if users feel it's open season to use whatever language and insults that come to hand towards others, then you're going to be losing participation at a steady rate. It's one primary reason why I use these pages less these days and the only alternative is to hit back and go on the offensive yourself - but then it only inflames the situation and makes matters worse.

Seems you're damned if you do and damned if you don't (not just here, but message boards in general) and before the obligatory "f*ck off if you don't like it" - would just hope for a place to comment on club action and team scores - without unnecessary insults and those that feel they have license to say whatever they choose and no actions are undertaken.

Of course, get them on their own and face to face, they'd run a f**king mile, (but) all to easy to hide behind a screen from however far away and take the easy option.

Will not be participating in this thread again, things sort of a culminated a bit recently and the previous response made a valid point. As the owner put it, we're only a small community and favor it over any other Ipswich discussion board, but you need to make a distinction between 'spirit' and tolerance of abusive behavior.

Edit - Number 9, you are allowed to put up highlights, but they won't provide enough insight into respective games to offer a proper opinion. (Two or three minutes coverage compared to someone who was at the game for the entire duration ?)

SJ .......... sometimes I read your posts and come away seriously confused, so it's no surprise that other posters on here are sometimes taken out of context. (no offence intended)

I take on board what you are saying about 'personal attacks', however, sometimes I re-read certain threads which have gone a bit 'pear shaped' and I usually come away with the opinion that some things that are said are perhaps taken out of context and on most occasions are resolved by themselves. If I really thought a thread had gone badly 'south' I would 'lock it'.

In regards to this comment "One established member was recently labeled a 'cocksucker' for speaking out after a score", yes I should have edited the thread, but even by your own admission this member almost always opens himself up for negative comments and to be honest I can't decide if we are dealing with a glass always empty supporter or a Norwich troll (lately I have been suspecting the latter). In saying that I personally don't have an issue with Norwich supporters posting on this forum as long as they are 'transparent'.

Cheers Dave

Bart didnt have a single shot to save ....which in many ways makes our inability to sitck one of the many chances we had, all the more ahrd to bear. I thinbk sat was the first time Villa had been able to "hang on" to coolect a point.... had to be against us didnt it lol !!

[Earl Blue]

Hey BB,

Over the years I have seen quite a lot of this and to be honest you need
to stand your ground as your opinions are as important
as others, irrespective of whether some agree or disagree.

There are no 'experts' on here mate and I too am sick to the teeth of those
who imply they are..

This is a general football chat site created by what I believe are
down to earth people.. Anyone who feels the need to rise above that and
disrespect others opinions should consider leaving the forum..

Anyway please stay for the 'good of the forum' mate and ignore those
that bug you.

[Charnwood]

Hey BB, you and I have had our "run ins" over the years over what I can't recall but we both got over it and moved on. The forum will be less interesting without your input, have a rethink mate, we do like you really even if you do write crap sometimes.........
....... as do we all.

[hallamblue]

obviously I don't!

[Charnwood]

obviously I don't!

It goes without saying Liz, yours is all crap.

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!

[herforder]

Peace, love, understanding and tolerance be amongst you all. If not, then kindly fu*k off!
(All said in the best possible taste)

[marko69]

Must've missed the cocksucker post! Damn! Now trying to figure out how that was incorporated into an Ipswich Town conversation.

"Mick needs to be more offensive"
"I'll be more offensive, mate....., why don't you Fk off?"
"Oh yeah??? Cocksucker!"

[bluejacko]

Well just back from boiling hot Sunny Costa Brava, to a miserable wet English Saturday, just read the report on the match, so we woke up the last 8 minuets, and played to get a draw at home ??? something wrong with this type of game, surely better to go for it at home, Ah forgot Mick game tactics of whatever you do don't lose and sod the entertainment, I watched Barcelona midweek and absolutely demolish a p*ss poor Celtic in the European Cup, footie was excellent, then come back to Micks pish, ah well at least we didn't lose

So you didn't see the game,read what frankly is becoming a load of tosh!and then form an opinion.
If you have Grant,Lawrence and Sears attacking the opposition every chance they got and call that just sitting back then quite frankly I just don't know what people want!!
Ok at the end I as well as most of the ground was screaming for Varney and Best but that does not take away from effort put in by the rest of the team.

Ok my comment about not being at the game has annoyed people BB in particular,in no way was this meant to imply that nobody should not have an opinion but i cannot see how you can just trash Saturdays performance on what someone else has said!after all we all saw Saturdays game differently jt seems.
To all that got uptight over my comment i apologise,maybe i should have asked how do you comment on a game you havn't seen.

[herforder]

I don't believe there's any further value in continuing this thread; only scope for potential conflict and angst, which serves no useful purpose and risks alienating other regular posters. Just an opinion, naturally.

[marko69]

On the contrary, I think this thread is serving a purpose. I think everyone needs to read it and realise how petty this particular discussion really is. To close it, and possibly wipe it, just means it's swept under a carpet.

But I do think there is a vital message to people who are easily offended. That message really is saying that perhaps Internet forums may not be the place for you. Not wanting anyone to p*ss off or anything, because I personally love all the contributions on here......., but think about it another way; a whole host of characteristics make up a community. If the more outspoken are reigned in on their views due to pandering to the easily offended, then what has the place become?

Earl, you made one comment about "no experts and being sick to death of those implying that they are"....., Are there really people posting implying that they are experts on here? Or is that how some people are interpreting the posts?

But I do think it's good if people take 5, read through some of the stuff and maybe get some perspective on things. This is a very good forum in the grand scheme of things. We should have more contributing, not less.

Top top post marko, and that highlighted piece is 100% spot on, I wish somebody would show me where anyone has said they are a better poster or expert because I cannot see it.

Some posters who are not able or dont want to attend matches seem to get offended by the truth, I am sorry but how can someone not at a game and who can only read or listen to others thoughts have a better take on the game than those that attend ? You just cant. I was unable to go to the Derby game and you won't find one single post where I am attempting to pretend I knew what had gone on as I didn't see it !!! As for the Villa game at least Five people on here alone who attended all said positive things on the game, Herforder, Steve & Jo, Bluejacko, Hallam and myself, someone who saw nothing came wading in with big opinions slagging the team off like they were in the dugout, just as non attenders get the hump those that do follow the club home and away at no small cost can feel equally irked when you are basically told what you say is wrong becuase we are sh*te every game.

People are way to sensitive and as marko has correctly said they interpret things to look like they are being put down, I would happily sit over a beer before any game with anyone off here and talk football and it would be totally amicable, I know because Rossi and I did it after knocking lumps out of each other, it is nothing personnel !! Sometimes you have take things in the way they are intended, the other day there was a "peedo" joke aimed in my direction but I took it in the way I hope to god it was meant because if it was meant in a serious way then World War Three would have kicked off trust me.

I am quite happy not to post anymore of my thoughts on matches going forward, it doesn't bother me one bit, some people get something from them but if others would rather I and others didn't then great, no problem at all.

[herforder]

Great posts from Marko and Bluemike - can't imagine what prompted them!

However, if we really have lost two regular posters - BB and St J - which the forum can ill- afford, then that's a real cause for regret. Hopefully, given time to reflect, they'll return.

I don't think SJ said he was leaving the forum.....what I think he said was along the lines that ...."he wouldn't be participating in this thread again"...

Thread not forum., that's how I read it anyway.

At least his avatar is interesting whereas some if his posts leave me lost long before I get to the end.

Now sit back and see if he sticks to his word.

Hahahaaaaaaaaaa !!!!

This is beyond belief. Using Barcelona as a 'weapon' against Mick tactics.

We do really have 'special' fans.

Mike .
I along with most others welcome and thoughly enjoy you post-match reports. They enhance the forum considerably. Your second para above though shows exactly why I am quitting and we have words about this in the past. You are effectively rubbishing the comments of those who were not at the game even though they may have listened to it or read reports of others who were at the game. For some reason you just will not accept the opinions of others that differ from your own, whether it be about a match, the manager or the way the club is run. Worse than that, I recall you telling someone fairly recently to sod off and watch someone else if they didn't agree with what was being said. With comments like that along with those from MacPolishBlue (a few posts below), is it any wonder people get pissed off.

That's my final word.

Why do you mention myself?

[Bluemike]

Billy, please try to understand I am not dismissing yours or anyone elses opinions on anything, I have no right to do so, all I am saying is surely if you are at a game you do tend to see it better than listening to commentators on a radio or reading it second hand from someone else, that is all, it surrly has to be correct doens't it ?

Billy you need to stay on here and keep posting, I remember when I was gonna walk away for whatever reason you were one of the people who said not to, I can't speak for anyone else but if I have upset you then I apologise, it was not meant for sure and as I said I would rather quit posting myself, that is not a problem for me at all.

We are all who we are and you have nothing to apologize to me for. I mean that.

I think I just need to take a break.
