@anon_opin Takes one to know one I guess? 🤷‍♂️

Loving the new Ipswich Town shirt. Surprised it’s not @edsheeran in it though. #itfc

[Martyn Abbott @big_abbs]

@markpeo1 @bushontheradio This is the correct answer.

@leonmoore1006 Makes you hope Greaves can find that early form. I’m with you, when we first signed him I thought ‘wow’ we’ve got a hell of a player on our hands. Started going down hill from Villa at home.

@JustinPazlar Not exactly an epic cup game. But going into half-time at 0-0 isn’t the end of the world if we can lift our game in the second half. We’ve got a strong bench as well.🤞

@leonmoore1006 Well can’t argue with that… wasn’t an ideal foundations to build on though was it. Like a house built on sand!

@leonmoore1006 Still time! 😂 🙈

Sorry to ruin everyone’s fun, but this didn’t happen tonight, the audio is actually from over a year ago, the last time Leeds fell apart.

The Request Show returns, next Sunday from 6PM 🎶

As you watch the Aurora this evening, it’s worth reflecting that you’re getting a rare direct glimpse of the power of Nature. Those charged particles causing the atmosphere to glow came from a sunspot complex 17 times the diameter of Earth and traveled across 90 million miles at a million miles an hour. Without our magnetic field to protect us, our atmosphere would have been lost to space long ago. Those colours in the sky are Nature reminding us that we’re very lucky to be here amidst the violence. And perhaps therefore also reminding us not to shite it all up :-)

And of course, Ipswich Town.

They became the first team in 12 years to win back-to-back promotions to the Premier League.

They recorded the best points tally ever for a 2nd placed side in Championship history.

Arguably the greatest achievement ever at this level.

For me @IpswichTown is the story of the season. No parachute payments, spent just £4.7m in the past 2 seasons,shrewd loan deals, clear philosophy, terrific manager, front foot,expansive style, losing just 10 games last 2 seasons. As near as you’ll get to modern football romance.

@johneldridge23 We don’t do subs at half time! Give it 15 mins and that may well happen. Tuanzebe is a better defensive defender, Clarke a much better ‘attacking’ defender.

@leonmoore1006 I questioned it as well at the time. To be fair I don’t think any keeper would have expected the swerve and bounce (no way it was intentional!). But the positioning and concentration of the wall is the bit I was questioning the most 🤷‍♂️.
