Ok, here goes

Its obvious that the problems we have at the moment aren't just down to the team. There is a problem from the very top to the very bottom of this club. In fact, the only good thing about this club is the fans and they are suffering more than anybody.

Although she has indicated the opposite, it is clear that Delia is not seriously open to offers of investment if it means selling her shares. The Fan's Eye column in yesterday's EDP alluded to this and I have long held this suspicion. The Turner's have managed to buy thmeselves a significant amount of influence at the club without much outlay.

Despite having nothing like the assets we have and approximately twice the debt, Ipswich have managed to attract not one, but two people prepared to invest in their shabby little set up.

The board's attitude is simply out of date with modern football and its about time Delia and co realised this. If they can't do a bette job than they already are, maybe they should contemplate handing over the running of the club to someone with a bit more nous.

In its present state, the team needs around £5m of wise investment to get it out of its current plight. I think we all know that is not going to happen so its time to start looking forward to League 1.
