Yesterday he sent me the picture, with following messages, below :)

I have been urging him all week to try and ensure today that the Bluebirds remove the digit from their collective arse and actually put in a decent (WINNING) performance against the 🚜 boys :roll:

………..and there actually is an Ipswich Road in Cardiff.
That must have been imported as the Welsh can’t spell. Isn’t it boyo.

Ipswich get a taste of the late goal medicine they have dished out plenty of times.

Drop to 3rd.

Southampton come from behind to beat Sunderland 4-2 thanks to late goals from January signing Joe Rothwell.

Leicester escape with a draw vs Hull but are now at risk of losing top spot next weekend

Norwich destroy hopeless Rotherham and move top 6.

Millwall continue the upward motion under Neil Harris with a 1-0 win vs Birmingham

Will not be an easy game for us, in great form over rather last 4, 3 wins 1 draw.

Will be another horrible fouling bunch of cloggers

Their fans are quite ludicrous given the season they've had. Certainly hope it affects the team.

My current customer is a loyal Ipswich fan. Goes to most home games. Says the manager has a freebie as no one expected better than maybe mid table.
I said “ do you expect Ipswich to fade”.
He said “not now. I thought they might fade about halfway through but definitely not now”.
That’s todays Ipswich Town Fade Update.

Also said really hope we go up together as that’ll be 6 points guaranteed for us next year.
Not offered me a cup of tea since 🤔
