If its any consolation at all Mike, if we get to the promised land and the team come round to the North Stand to celebrate, I will have a moment to think of you and all of the pain you suffered under Jewell, Keane, McCarthy, Hirst etc in those far flung places cos I know you did the hard yards. Come August when we play Man City et al, where you were tomorrow will be irrelevant but those who know and suffered it too, know... enjoy the holiday regardless mateBluemike wrote: ↑Fri May 03, 2024 8:26 pmI'm not gonna lie, now I've just arrived at Stansted Airport and checked in to hotel it is hitting me hard that I'm not there tomorrow, I've tried to not think about it and play it down but I'm devastated if I'm honest, I only have myself to blame i guess but who'd have thought this scenario was possible 18 months ago when I booked the holiday.

Re: Championship - Ipswich Town vs Huddersfield Town Preview & Matchday Thread
Same here and I’m a thousand miles away. .. I can’t make my mind up whether we’re going to blow them away tomorrow 6-0 or struggle to win by a single goal. For me it all depends whether or not we can score an early goal. If we do I think we’ll win comfortably and have a party. 🥳.. if we don’t it could be a nail biting 90 minutes which I’m not sure I’ll be able to cope with.
OMG, it’s half past midnight, time for bed

Cheers Wilf, I know you suffered those times too, kinda makes it even harder missing out on tomorrow but I'm proud of the fact I did virtually every game home and away when it was bloody awful. I intend to enjoy my holiday big time, celebrating Saturday evening could get messy lol.Blue Wilf wrote: ↑Fri May 03, 2024 10:55 pmIf its any consolation at all Mike, if we get to the promised land and the team come round to the North Stand to celebrate, I will have a moment to think of you and all of the pain you suffered under Jewell, Keane, McCarthy, Hirst etc in those far flung places cos I know you did the hard yards.

Re: Championship - Ipswich Town vs Huddersfield Town Preview & Matchday Thread
I'm a bag of nerves already. Have just walked into Wymondham in my retro Fisons shirt from the inaugural Premier League season and had some banter with a couple of Norwich fans, but they genuinely (?) hope we do it!
These last few weeks have been so stressful and having stepped back a little from the previous couple of games I can only imagine how those watching the game, let alone lucky enough to be inside PR today will be feeling.

Re: Championship - Ipswich Town vs Huddersfield Town Preview & Matchday Thread
Sky News are giving live updates from inside the ground every 15 mins and I’m buzzing. I’m about to go to the supermarket in my Town shirt and can’t remember the last time I felt so excited about a football match, and I’ve been to some big European games over the past 3 years but nothing compares to this since walking down Wembley Way going to the play off final v Barnsley in 2000.
Did anyone else see Mark Ashton and all the school kids on BBC News at Ten ? I don’t remember anything like this in 2000. Maybe it’s because of the potential back to back promotions.

8pm in Queensland, 90 minutes to go. Been thinking about kick off all day. So glad I’ll be able to watch it live. I feel like this our destiny…
Good luck everyone, wherever you are watching or listening.
I hope it’s a cracker of a game! CCCCOOOOOYYYYYBBBBB!

Just turned on tv for the pregame and some coffee. Nerves aplenty. It seems all the country over there are watching this one?

Apparently a bunch of Huddersfield players have been spending too much time on the beer or the golf course this week? Sounds like some of them dropped from the squad, can only be good news for Town if true?!!!
