Had. They are a symptom not the problem.People go to watch football for all kinds of reasons. I understand that work was meant to start on a new all weather pitch last Monday, but as yet there is no sign of any work. But let’s just be clear and up front about it, and let’s see the detailed accounts; what are the costs of any fundraising event taken out of money raised, and where fees have been paid to individuals let’s see evidence that tax has been paid on that income.We were all told our money was needed for the ‘big push’ for category 1 status. I understand that former players need to earn a living, and it’s a struggle for those who didn’t manage to earn big money during their career. Copyright 2015 Turnstile Blues Everything is done to the cheapest possible standard, and if there is a chance to scrape by the requirements of maintaining category 2 by building the pitch in very slow stages, then this appears to be Evans preferred approach. The most recent figures show that the current debt at ITFC is The ground is shabby and dilapidated; look closely at the the peeling paint, dirt and stains around the place. Even much lauded fan owned FC United of Manchester is currently fraught with internal battles, with lawyers involved in claim and counter claim and a swathe of resignations from the board. I know that my perfect football club is unlikely to ever exist. Okey so , I was in discoteque when i heard this song .. & i totally got a flash back to my lovely & precious children... ! That’s really not it. Where is this “investment”? Want more? I wouldn’t be bothered by that stuff if I didn’t keep being told that the owner has “invested” in club.The match day catering operation is clearly run on shoe-string. It’s clear from social media that some fans think of ITFC as Marcus Evans’ club rather than theirs and that’s fine by me if they are happy having that kind of relationship. I urge any of you with a spare hour to go and have a nose around up at the training ground.

I’m not prepared to have that deferential, unquestioning, cap-doffing relationship with my club.I get that if the ethics of how you spend your money is of any consideration in life, then football probably isn’t the sport for you. Judging from the smell the flood was from the laundry room, so detergent laden water was flooding on to part of the pitch, causing contamination.I’ve observed a couple of training sessions on dimly lit pitches because lots of the floodlights are not working. Are we really convinced that the calibre of player currently at the club accounts for all the income we’ve generated, and explains away how our debt to Marcus Evans is so massive?Marcus Evans is no saviour and as there seems to be no sign of him getting out of my club I guess the choice I have is to take it or leave it. Have those taking part in the fundraising matches and cycle rides given their time for free, or been paid a fee? That never materialised, and now without an all weather pitch we risk not even retaining category 2. If people are happy handing over their cash with little scrutiny or transparency about how it is spent and where it goes, then good for them. You Came And Changed The Way I Feel Ende November lassen wir Kimberly Smith alias Kim Wilde hochleben. You came, and changed the way I feel No one could love you more Because you came and turned my life around No one could take your place … Enough. You know, the one we used to own! The one that has been sold at a knock down price and transferred, again without our consent - and without even an acknowledgement at the time to those that paid for shares that make up 12.5% ownership of our club, until the next time the annual accounts were published - I have seen other warning signs that point to a lack of investment at the academy. I haven’t left the club, the club that I grew to love has left me. Yes players have been brought in, and we have wages to pay. Fans have been emotionally blackmailed and cajoled in to supporting the academy over the past few years.As supporters are asked to dig ever deeper and deeper in to our pockets, how about some transparency about fund raising events?

I won’t pay a single penny more of my hard earned cash to watch a game at Portman Road so long as Evans and Milne remain at the helm.No, the football hasn’t been great to watch in recent years, but that isn’t my reason for having Finally. A man who according to the most recent Sunday Times Rich List is worth £765 million won’t even pay staff a living wage, and even had the front to try and get volunteers to do what could and should be a paid role. I have huge respect for them. So I’ve turned a blind eye and tried to stay focussed on the on-field rather than off-field activity, as niggling concern on top of niggling concern has built up, and I just can’t do it any more.According to Swiss Ramble Marcus Evans paid £32 million to take over the club in 2007. When I returned this year they still haven’t been fixed, almost two years later!I’m too world weary to even go in to the money from the transfers of Cresswell and Mings. Maybe it’s an old fashioned and out of touch view that football clubs are well placed to enhance and benefit the wider local community, and paying staff a proper and fair wage which is then spent in the local economy should be something that any decent football club would pride itself on.Ipswich Town was one of only three clubs that a 2010 investigation by Christian Aid could not locate where they were registered for tax purposes – page 38 of their ‘Blowing The Whistle’ report states: “And what of the academy? You came, and changed the way I feel No one could love you more Because you came and turned my life around No one could take your place I've never felt good with permanent things Now I don't want anything to change You can My earliest clear memories of watching ITFC are from the Bobby Ferguson and John Duncan era, so I hardly have a low threshold for unappealing, shite football.
