Third Strip

Ipswich are using their 2008/10 Red Away strip as their third strip this season, not the white one as displayed. [1] —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.134.72.93 (talk) 20:00, 23 September 2010 (UTC)

ITFC Userbox

Just to let you know, I have created an ITFC userbox at Template:User ITFC for anyone that wishes to add {{User ITFC}} to their User Page. Hope it's of use. Essexmutant 16:32, 29 December 2005 (UTC)

Vandalism

I've directed User:Neil m to the Sandbox but haven't warned Unicron as his edit seemed to be no more than a grammatical correction. Thus I gave him the benefit of the doubt suspecting that he doesn't know the club. - JVG 12:37, 13 March 2006 (UTC)

Do we need the "Popular Chants" section? Wikipedia is not a lyrics database. --OpenToppedBus - Talk to the driver 12:03, 27 April 2006 (UTC)

Pride of Anglia

I've created a Pride of Anglia page, following an edit I made to the Norwich City page.

Far be it from me to amend the ITFC page, but I thought you may want to mirror the Official / Unofficial Honours sections I put at NCFC.

Alex Bruce

Alex has at least one cap for the ROI U'21's, and he is listed on his wikipedia page as being Irish, but his flag in the squad list is of England. Maybe someone more wiki-savvy could change it - that is assuming it should be changed Packersh 00:16, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

A note on British English

British English should be used for articles on Britain related topics. Likewise, American English should be used on articles pertaining to American topics. For a clearer example, please visit this sub-section on the differences between their usage. --Siva1979Talk to me 03:07, 2 November 2006 (UTC)

Famous Fans

There seems to be quite a lot of 'X' supports team A and team B but also watches Ipswich occassionally. The links seem pretty tenuous to be honest unless anyone has any evidence of the people listed also saying they support ipswich, they should be removed.--Nuhouse 21:28, 9 November 2006 (UTC)

Remove the section as cruft, and the trivia section should have relevant points merged into the article text. No trivia sections, please. Punkmorten 11:48, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Famous fans - rubbish, remove per Punkmorten.. The Rambling Man 11:53, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

FA drive

Hello all. Having successfully driven three articles over at Wikiproject:Cricket to featured status over the past couple of months, Dweller and I are turning our attentions to our home clubs, starting with Ipswich Town F.C. and then onto Norwich City F.C..

Naturally, we don't own the pages so we'd like to encourage as many people as possible who have a passing interest in pushing an article to WP:FA or in the clubs themselves to get involved. Typically, this process will start with me slapping a few dozen {{Fact}} tags on all uncited "facts". It will make the article appear unsightly in the interim, but it is a very useful way of picking off original research.

While I realise there is a Article Improvement Drive already in play in the Football Wikiproject, I'd still like to encourage others to join in on this mini-version.

Please feel free to contact me or Dweller if you'd like to contribute to the drive or, better still, just get in there. The Rambling Man 11:53, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

NB I'm a self-declared Norwich City fan (yeah, I know) but would be pleased to see both of East Anglia's biggest clubs as FAs. If you see me editing here, please don't assume vandalism, even if I appear to be blanking material - it usually means it'll reappear somewhere else; check the edit summaries. so, we're working on Peterborough and Southend. Joke. --Dweller 12:04, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Caps

Did David Linighan really win a full England cap? --Dweller 14:44, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Couldn't find it anyway so it's gone. The Rambling Man 14:19, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Away kit

Is it just me, or does the away kit player appear to have a spear impaling him through his waistline? --Dweller 16:00, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

I now have spears running through shins. --Dweller 21:15, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
Seems to be an IE issue. Firefox has no problems. --Dweller 15:55, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Proposed hack of history section

Bearing in mind there's nothing there pre-1960, the History section is very over-detailed. I've therefore created a daughter article, History of Ipswich Town F.C. and dumped the current content there.

Assuming no-one tells me this is a terrible idea, I would like to precis the existing History copy (and of course add some pre 1960 History too).

I'll wait for at least some consensus before I begin hacking, because this may be a contentious thing to do. --Dweller 16:34, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

I have no problem with that at all. Just like the Arsenal F.C. FA. The Rambling Man 16:44, 15 March 2007 (UTC)
Just don't leave it in that completely unreferenced state! As a neutral, I;d say that the biggies for the history section are the Ramsey and Robson eras, and everything else should be built around them. Oldelpaso 18:52, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

To-do list

That's all. --Dweller 17:23, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

ooh, hark at you. Nice. Agreed, will do my best to attend to some photos, depends on my next visit to Portaloo Road (hopefully next couple of weeks, at least for external photos), will do my best hit the history section asap too... The Rambling Man 21:48, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Notable players

I think they need to have played a notable part in Ipswich's history, rather than "any old bloke who won a cap". Amir Karič, for example, has an article that says he made 3 sub appearances for ITFC. He's hardly a notable player in the context of ITFC, unless in an article about expensive mistakes. --Dweller 13:35, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Yeah, in this context, notable really means internationals. The Rambling Man 14:20, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
Amir Karič is a notable player for Ipswich - in that he is arguably the biggest waste of money in the club's history!: (Just-an-Ipswich-fan (talk) 07:12, 27 July 2009 (UTC))

"As caretaker managers"

This, currently reference 14, seems to be a footnote, not a reference? --Dweller 14:21, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

Stats and stuff

Suggestions...

  1. in the managers' table, include a column for % wins, so there's a measure to compare them by. Maybe colour code it by percentile?
    % wins, yes, colour coded, probably not much point since they'll all be around the same I would think.  % first, colours maybe later... The Rambling Man 15:34, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
    Done, without colours. Interesting, actually, and shows Magilton's days are numbered! The Rambling Man 15:56, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
  2. delete all but the most notable "notable players"
    Perhaps a sub-page for "List of Ipswich Town F.C. players" (like Arsenal), copy the lot over there and just refer to the list? The Rambling Man 15:34, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
    I've created List of Ipswich Town F.C. players. The Rambling Man 15:56, 16 March 2007 (UTC)
  3. where current players have full international caps, include that in the squad list
    Not sure about that. Does this happen on any other team page? The Rambling Man 15:34, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

What do people think? --Dweller 15:31, 16 March 2007 (UTC)

  • 1. Useful info, but be careful not to overemphasise it - the fact that it doesn't distinguish between divisions distorts the data i.e. John Duncan looks good from those stats but the team performed unremarkably during his tenure. In short, don't use colours.
  • 2. The trouble with these lists is always NPOV. To retain it, some objective criteria must be used. On Manchester City F.C. I used the club's hall of fame.
  • 3. Don't bother - consider the 30something who won a single cap a decade ago. Oldelpaso 19:03, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
Well I've made a table, you're right it overemphasises John Duncan's contribution, and probably Magilton too (given the way I feel about him right now!) but it's not unusual to see %win. The only thing I might do is take away the caretakers who managed for just a few games because their % are silly one way or another. I don't believe ITFC has a hall of fame, although if we do I'd agree that it's a good place to start for the list I've created as a subpage. The third point, I agree, don't bother. The Rambling Man 19:09, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

since when?

Problem is since when was Shumi a notable player. I thought to become a notable player you had to make more than 50 apperances for that club.

Portman Rd

The "ancient office of Portman" is ambiguous - is this a room or an honour? And if, as I suspect, it's the latter, some explanation (corrollary?) as to what the heck it is would be good! --Dweller 15:48, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Okay, point taken... ! The Rambling Man 16:01, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

East Anglian Derby

This article cites 134 matches since 1902. This was lifted from East Anglian Derby that notes that the match in 1902 was between two amateur clubs. Is this OK? I suggest we could footnote this point of clarification, as technically it could be argued that the two amateur clubs were not the same entities as the pro clubs that emerged from them... --Dweller 17:07, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

You mean Ipswich emerged succesfully while Norwich fans just had posters of Jeremy Goss on their walls?! Yes, I suppose including amateur confrontations could be added.... The Rambling Man 17:22, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
footnote it, with the "caretaker manager" bit? Footnotes will be a good way of keeping article length appropriate. History needs some more chopping, but I'm sure you already knew that! --Dweller 17:24, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
Added a reference/footnote, not sure if it's possible to differentiate between them to be honest, and Arsenal F.C. has at least one such footnote. I know the history is a shade long but I'm beginning to think that we should peer review it and see how it goes. I think all citation neededs have now been dealt with... what do you reckon? The Rambling Man 17:32, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
However, the slant on history looks like it's suffering from a dose of recentism. Fancy chopping it? I'd like to get the peer review up and running anyway... The Rambling Man 17:48, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
Happy to. Started it earlier today (now I'm highly affronted you hadn't noticed. Not.) and will carry on. Slightly hagiographical still - I got rid of some POV about Burley. --Dweller 20:04, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
Notice? Of course I noticed. But that's why we're doing this, to tame each other's excitement. By the way, I left a note on the NCFC talk page, advance warning of things to come. The Rambling Man 20:06, 19 March 2007 (UTC)

Honours

Further to the Peer Review comments, I think the FA Youth Cup win is notable enough for the History section, but I'm not sure about it appearing in the Honours. Ditto, but much stronger, for the decidedly iffy Texaco Cup. However, I'd like some consensus before I march in and ditch the Tex. --Dweller 09:58, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

Further, the presentation style used at the SWFC article is quite pleasing on the eye, see Sheffield_Wednesday_F.C.#Honours --Dweller 10:00, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
I'd list the Texaco Cup win a long way ahead of the Youth Cup win - at least it was a competition for first team players. - fchd 10:31, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
I agree... The Rambling Man 10:32, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
OK. Both retained. Any views on the "tablature option"? --Dweller 10:34, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
Yes, I'd say the Sheffield Wednesday table looks good. Nice work on this article all-round. - fchd 19:46, 22 March 2007 (UTC)
What about the Reserve League Title?

Lead section

The lead currently contains no references; could someone involved in editing this article find some, or use some of the existing ones appropriately? I'm always concerned when potential feature articles don't cite any sources in the introductory section, which often states numerous important facts. QmunkE 10:40, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Michaelas10's comments from the FAC page

The peer review pretty much covered it all. A few comments of my own;

Indirect Vandalism?

Why does this article appear as a redirect from "Shit of Anglia"? Why is that phrase even in Wikipedia as a search term? AncientBrit 16:08, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

It's vandalism. I've slapped a speedy deletion notice on that page. It should be deleted soon . --Dweller 19:54, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

A few issues

Hi chaps, just did another check before supporting and a few things came up which I didn't notice at peer review stage. Hopefully they won't be much of a problem and I'll be able to whack a support on the nomination: Thanks for detailed comments. I'll go through them carefully. --Dweller 10:42, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

  • In the lead "and they last appeared in the FA Premier League in 2001–02." is fairly unnecessary.
    • Sorry to start by disagreeing! For people with a passing interest in football, Prem status is all-important. They'd want to know that the club has been in the Prem and just how recently, as a matter of top importance. --Dweller 08:49, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
      • Hmm, possibly. I'd argue that whilst the casual fan might want to know that, someone who didn't know anything about English football at all would wonder why that was included and not, say, last appearance in League Two. Oh well, it's not a huge thing. HornetMike 19:27, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
  • "The club was founded as an amateur side in 1878, as Ipswich Association F.C. They won a number of local cup competitions, including the Suffolk Challenge Cup and the Suffolk Senior Cup.[2] They joined the Southern Amateur League in 1907 and, with results improving steadily, became champions in the 1921–22 season.[3]" Doesn't read too well. Two sentences starting with they, and feels a bit stilted. I suggest putting something like "In their early days" (except something far better than that!) in at the beginning of the second sentence.
  • "The club won the league three further times, in 1929–30, 1932–33 and 1933–34 before leaving at the end of the 1934–35 season to become founder members of the Eastern Counties Football League. A year later, the club turned professional. The club won the Southern League in its first season and finished third in the next." The thing about them being founder members of the Eastern Counties, then winning the Southern League in between sentences hasn't been cleared up yet
    • Not sure I understand. Please clarify... or fix it! --Dweller 08:49, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
      • I'd happily fix it if I knew more about the club. I'll try and be more clear: the first sentence establishes they won trophies, and became founder members of the Eastern Counties. The second sentence establishes they turned professional. At this point, as far as the reader is concerned, the club are a member of the Eastern Counties league. But then the third sentence establishes that the club won the Southern League. When did the move happen? HornetMike 19:27, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
        • Tried a bit of a minor rejig, it all happened in quick succession, only a single season in the Eastern Counties league before going pro, hope the current prose makes that clearer. The Rambling Man 19:43, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
  • In "The club was elected to The Football League on 30 May 1938" I suggest changing "The club" to "Ipswich". This avoids two successive sentences beginning with "the club". If you're going to do this I'd recommend doing a paragraph break seeing as you're going back to the proper noun, but that fits quite well as it happens on the move to the Football League.
  • "After Ramsey left to manage England, he was replaced at Ipswich by Jackie Milburn.[4]" - You've already said in the previous sentence he left to manage England, just say "Ramsay was replaced by Jackie Milburn". As that sentence's quite small, you might consider merging this: "Under Milburn, Ipswich's fortunes on the pitch plummeted" into it and starting a new sentence with "two years after winning the league title..."
  • "Ferguson resigned in May 1987 after reaching the promotion play-offs.[4]" Might want to point out that he lost in them.
  • In general the history section is a bit too focused on recent history. The best part of 3 paragraphs focuses on the 90s onwards, whilst 3 other paragraphs covers the rest. Whether chopping some of it down or expanding the older sections is the answer, I'm not sure.
    • This came up at the Peer Review and was alleviated. I think that now the recentism isn't too bad. The Arsenal F.C. FA, which we used as a template, has 7 parags of History with 3 post-dating 1986. Currently, this article has 8 parags and 4 post-date 1982, including the 2 shortest parags in the section. I'm comfortable with it. --Dweller 10:42, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
  • I reckon the paragraph beginning with "One of Ipswich Town's nicknames is The Blues, stemming from their traditional kit" should come frst in that section. When you start it with "The shirts worn by players of Ipswich Town" I automatically think "What colour are those shirts?". That also means you get a nice progression where you have an overview of the shirt then it goes into more detail with the crest. Might want to change the header to "Colours and crest" if you do this.
  • "The club was amongst the first exponents of goal nets, in 1890,[45] but the ground remained undeveloped until, in 1901, a tobacco processing plant was built along the south edge of the ground." The relation between goal nets and ground development seems a bit of an odd one. Although, if you were to split these sentences, the goalnets one would be tiny. Hmm...
  • I reckon you should stick this: "Up until 2000 when the stand was completely rebuilt, it was commonly referred to as "Churchmans" after the brothers who owned the plant" in a note after this "as "Churchmans" after the brothers who owned the plant", adding southern before Churchmans in the article sentence. My reasoning is that it's odd for you to hear about the ground being re-developed in 1901, then hear about a stand being re-developed in 2000, then back to 1905. Indeed, it's not clear there was a Churchmans stand built from the current phrasing, so when you talk about it being redeveloped it 2000 the reader has no previous clue it existed.
  • I'm not sure how much the Pride of Anglia stuff has to do with "Ipswich in popular culture". If it were to be moved into the perhaps more relevant supporters section (after all, rivalry is generated by fans - and presently that section is a bit focused on recent attendances/nicknames) then you'd probably have to lose the Escape to Victory stuff. A shame, as it's a fun nugget of information, but not terrible.
  • You don't need that youth team players section. None of the players listed in it pass WP:BIO. Indeed, I've afd'd the ones that have articles.
Sorry this has come so late. I dunno if you want to point out on the FA page that there will probably be a number of things changed. Although this is a long list, most of it is grammar stuff, and isn't that big. Probably not worth bringing up, but I'll leave it to you. Right, bed. Cheers, HornetMike 02:35, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
Hey, no problem. Article has improved thanks to your comments. --Dweller 12:06, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
That's all of the above resolved, thanks chaps. Just two more things (I know, I know, sorry!). Do we know when the club changed their name from Ipswich Association to plain old Ipswich? Also, this is my preference I dunno what you think, but I don't like the panorama centered and seperate. I do Sheffield Wednesday does it, but I think it looks far better intergrated with the text. Up to you, though. HornetMike 21:45, 25 March 2007 (UTC)
Fixed and fixed, hopefully to your liking... The Rambling Man 07:19, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
It is indeed! I've supported, thanks for the attentive approach you've taken to my nitpicking! Cheers, HornetMike 13:38, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
My pleasure, it's good to have so many positive constructive comments from you. We now turn our attentions to Norwich City F.C. by the way, so stand by! The Rambling Man 13:43, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

Southern League

"A year later, the club turned professional and joined the Southern League, which they won in its first season and finished third in the next". The wikilink to Southern League goes to a disambig. What league was it that Ipswich won?-- Zleitzen(talk) 09:27, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Hmm, bad me. Disambiguation fixed, thanks for pointing it out! The Rambling Man 12:18, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Tony1

Oppose - 1a. The prose needs cleaning up throughout. Here are random examples:

  • "The club was founded in 1878 but they did not play as a professional club until 1936" - Remove "they".
  • "The club won the league three further times, in 1929–30, 1932–33 and 1933–34" - "three further times" is clumsy; why not remove it altogether?
  • "The club was immediately relegated the following season" - Relegated to what?
  • "Major success came with Ipswich Town's only FA Cup trophy in 1978, beating Arsenal in the final at Wembley Stadium" - what, the trophy beat Arsenal?
  • En dashes are used throughout, so why not for scores, such as "6–0"?
  • Audit use of commas, for example "A poor start to the season, culminating in a 2-0 defeat at Grimsby Town meant that Burley was ..." - Where's the second comma enclosing the nested phrase?

Please don't just fix these examples. Tony 08:53, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

As per my comments at your talk page, that's not the easiest of instructions to follow. --Dweller 09:39, 27 March 2007 (UTC)

Chronology

The FA Cup win of 1978 needs to be moved up in the para, otherwise there is an implication that that the win was a result of the "flair" fo Muhren & Thijssen - which wasn't the case. Muhren joined the summer following the cup win and Thijssen post xmas that season.

i'd also suggest a list of club players of the year might be of value.

See List of Ipswich Town F.C. Players of the Year. The Rambling Man (talk) 13:36, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
oops! still think the 70's/80's para needs a re-jig to be chronologically consistent. Robin Turner can also be added to the list of players who featured in the Escape To Victory trivia (Osman, Wark & O'Callaghan actually had lines). Oleg mcnoleg (talk) 23:06, 26 November 2007 (UTC)

Honours - Charity Shield Error

Ipswich have never won the Charity Shield - certainly not in 1935 when they were in the middle of the Eastern Counties League. 1935 winners were Sheff Wed 1-0 v Arsenal. The wiki Charity Shield page is also in error. (source thefa.com amongst many) Ipswich performance in the shield has been less than sparkling losing 0-6 & 0-5 respectively. Oleg mcnoleg (talk) 23:35, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

Good spot, have corrected both articles. FA.com says 1-5 & 0-5 incidentally. --Jameboy (talk) 16:13, 29 November 2007 (UTC)
thanks - i only looked up the 1935 game - the rest came from my (slightly feeble) memory - rubbish either way! Oleg mcnoleg (talk) 21:45, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Honours - Anglo-Italian Cup Error

We can't have won this in 1996 as it didn't exist then, in fact we have never won it according to the wikipedia article about it. 82.69.6.197 (talk)

It did exist in 1996, it was the last edition. Genoa beat Port Vale in the final at Wembley. - fchd (talk) 21:34, 24 December 2007 (UTC)
Ok even if it did exist we weren't semi-finalists we were quarter-finalists (English semifinalists)[1] in a competition for Division 1 English teams. Also I notice the official Ipswich town website does not list it as one of there honours and I personally feel it should be removed as if you start listing everytime someone got to quater-finals, bigger clubs lists would be huge and I think there should be some consistency. - Rambo's Revenge (talk) 20:33, 29 December 2007 (UTC)

Do they appear on match shirts or just replica shirts? The Rambling Man (talk) 14:19, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
On match shirts, but rarely on replicas. Think it's only the first 5000 replicas (hence not on mine :( ) It's on the club website as well, in the banners background at the top. - JVG (talk) 14:33, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
Cool. The explanation could be added into the article on the assumption we can find a reliable source to explain what they mean (although I know it's common knowledge, that in itself isn't sufficient for inclusion)... The Rambling Man (talk) 14:35, 30 January 2008 (UTC)
Quite aware, am looking at the sec for a news article or something given the stars were added only 2, poss 3 seasons ago. They're on the shirt but not officially part of the crest btw, if you look at the banner on the front page of the ITFC site (the left logo has no stars, the logo on the shirt background has the 3 stars) - JVG (talk) 14:38, 30 January 2008 (UTC)

Womens team deserves to be mentioned

The womens team has won some silverware and i think it deserves a mention on the article. Itfc+canes=me (talk) 19:38, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

If the womens team is notable enough it should have its own article. The Rambling Man (talk) 16:43, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
Well its not quite and should deserve a mention on this. Itfc+canes=me (talk) 18:50, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
It depends whether they are administered as part of Ipswich Town F.C. (using Admin staff etc. at Portman Road or the training ground) - the article is about the club - not the first team only. If they are completely seperate (i.e. like Fulham Ladies), then they don't deserve a mention here but need as you say a new article about them if they can demonstrate sufficient notability. - fchd (talk) 20:24, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

League Position History

Existing graph
Newly created graph
Ipswich-only graph

I've put together an updated graph for Ipswich league positions, and included Norwich stats for comparison. Do we want to use this here. Might be of value on Norwich City F.C., Pride of Anglia and/or East Anglian Derby too? - JVG (talk) 00:44, 6 March 2009 (UTC)

Great work. I think the comparitive chart should not be on the club articles, but most certainly should be on the last two articles you mention. --Dweller (talk) 11:35, 6 March 2009 (UTC)
Added it to Pride of Anglia and East Anglian Derby. I can quite easily create Norwich-only & Ipswich-only ones as well if we want, as well as graphs for all the East Anglian sides in the Conference or higher. If Colchester United, Southend, Northampton, Cambridge, etc want one... - JVG (talk) 16:34, 7 March 2009 (UTC)

Cobbold family

The Tolly Cobbold article contains the claim that the Cobbold family established Ipswich Town, though this article doesn't mention who was responsible. In fact a search reveals no mention at all of the word "Cobbold" in the article. So two questions - who established the club, and shouldn't the Cobbold family, or certain members thereof, get a mention somewhere? Cheers, Miremare 20:39, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

Have you seen History of Ipswich Town F.C.? The Cobbolds are mentioned there, oh, 21 times. If the Tolly article is incorrect and needs modification, then feel free to correct it. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:42, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
Ah, I didn't notice that, thanks. Miremare 03:18, 6 November 2009 (UTC)

Broom Hill

A new article on Broom Hill has now been created. Please contribute additional material as appropriate. Does anyone have a map or plan showing exactly where Broom Hill ground was located?--Lidos (talk) 09:12, 29 January 2010 (UTC)

Squad Numbers

I've no idea who keeps assigning Mirko Ranieri a squad number (he's been shown as being 99, 60 and currently 50), but he's not been given one by the club, and no other source has him having a squad number. As a result I've removed his squad number, although as he has a professional contract (he is on loan from Spurs, and would not be allowed to go out on loan if he did not have one), I have kept him on the player list.

Also, Devann Yao keeps being added as a current player - he was offered a contract in December 2009 according to some reports, but it's yet to be confirmed that he is an Ipswich player, let alone be allocated squad number 45. As a result, I've removed him from the player list. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Robeff1 (talk • contribs) 17:54, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

TFA?

It's slightly surprising to see that this hasn't been on the main page as Today's Featured Article - there are such an amazing number of FAs about Ipswich FC. I note Norwich FC have been! Has anybody involved thought about nominating it? Bob talk 13:01, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Feel free to try! I believe since I've already been a main contributor to a couple of main page FAs, I'm less likely to get another one... The Rambling Man (talk) 07:45, 4 October 2010 (UTC)
As far as I know that doesn't count against "the score". Are there any dates that might be relevant? Bob talk 13:59, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Ray Crawford and West Stand/Pioneer Stand development

With regard to Ray Crawford's goalscoring record, he is listed as scoring 218 goals in the summary pane at the top of the page. I was personally under the impression that this was 227 goals, so I checked "Ipswich Town FC - The 1960's, from Ramsey to Robson" by Terry Hunt and "Ipswich Town Miscellany" by Dan Botten (both published 2009). Both books cite Crawford as having scored 227 goals in 353 appearances.

Also, I would like to propose a clarification of the text regarding the stadium development. In the Stadia section the construction of the Portman Stand is covered but the development of the West Stand into the Pioneer Stand in 1982 is missed out. I suggest the following amendment (additional information taken from original reference source [50], the ITFC History of the Stadium page):

"The two-tier Portman Stand was built along the east side of the ground in place of the existing terraces in 1971, and the west stand was extended in 1982 by addition of a third tier. The rebuilt west stand was renamed as the "Pioneer Stand" as a result of the club's sponsorship by the electronics company Pioneer Corporation and was converted to all-seating in 1990."


Apologies if I am waffling/talking nonsense/in the wrong place - this is my first-ever post :)

Orchaldor (talk) 22:03, 4 January 2011 (UTC)

Hey, I've looked up Crawford's record in the "Who's Who of Ipswich Town" (Breedon Books, by Dean Hayes), it says 204 league goals, 5 FA Cup goals, and 9 "other" goals which adds up to 218. How do your sources break down the goals scored? I suspect some goals may have been scored in things like the Hospital Cup...? As for the clarification to the Pioneer Stand development, I'd suggest you make the changes yourself! They seem reasonable, but the only thing I'd consider is that there's more detail in Portman Road so it could just be the case that the summary style ended up leaving this out. Either way, if you think it's important enough to be included in the ITFC article, then go for it! All the best, The Rambling Man (talk) 22:41, 4 January 2011 (UTC)
Thanks for your welcome and advice! As you suggested, I have had a look at the the article for Portman Road and I'm happy that I'm not overloading the ITFC article with a rehash of the specific page for the stadium - so I shall be bold and go for it! Regarding Ray Crawford's goals, neither of my sources give a breakdown, so I shall have to research further on this. I have some ideas on where to start looking, once I get some time off :) Orchaldor (talk) 01:03, 5 January 2011 (UTC)

Semi-Protect?

Given a number of anon edits of a seemingly vandal nature, plus the ongoing managerial changes, would it be worth considering semi-protection for the next few days? - JVG (talk) 22:16, 7 January 2011 (UTC)

Done, dude, done. One week semi-prot. The Rambling Man (talk) 00:40, 8 January 2011 (UTC)

Squad table format

A discussion is being held here on the possibility of rolling out a new squad template. The new template, named {{football squad player2}}, differs from the standard squad layout in several ways:

  • It features a sort function
  • Comes in a single column format that can be understood by screen readers.
    • Single column format ensures that low resolution browsers, including mobile devices, do not get part or all of the second column cut off.
    • Single column format ensures less clutter, particularly at lower resolutions, for wide sections such as the Arsenal loan section.
  • It gives nationality its own column; at present flags are featured in a blank, untitled column
  • It complies with Wikipedia's guidance on flag usage.
  • It leaves enough space to add images of current players, an example of which can be seen at Watford F.C#Current squad.

It is proposed that the new template be added to some of Wikipedia's most high-profile club articles, which might include Ipswich Town F.C.. To give your thoughts, please read and contribute to the discussion at WikiProject Football.

Add Paul Jewell to the managers list

144.124.221.17 (talk) 15:20, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

The list on the main ITFC page is for managers who have managed 50 or more games. And McParland is still managing the team until after Wednesday's defeat against Arsenal. The Rambling Man (talk) 15:27, 10 January 2011 (UTC)

Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. Once you find a reliable source, please make a new edit request. Qwyrxian (talk) 05:29, 12 January 2011 (UTC)

Why is the manager list restricted to those who have managed for 50 games? This isn't a restriction on any other English club manager list - and Ipswich have had fewer managers than most clubs. Why 50 games anyway? It's an extremely arbitrary number robeff1 10th July 2011

Also, can the anon editor who keeps editing the squad numbers, please stop? These numbers were based on a report from a fansite that said that the numbers concerned "may give an indication of the squad numbers" for 2011/12. They still have the old numbers on their own page, as does the official site. Maybe worth semi-protecting until squad numbers are announced? robeff1 10th July 2011 —Preceding undated comment added 19:35, 10 July 2011 (UTC).

Please see List of Ipswich Town F.C. managers for a full article. Thanks. The Rambling Man (talk) 20:10, 10 July 2011 (UTC)
Edit Conflict Added a hidden note to that effect [re: squad numbers] in the hope it lets well meaning anon editors know and thus resolves the issue. Semi-Protection possibly wouldn't go amiss though, see if things change... - JCJ (talk) 20:14, 10 July 2011 (UTC)


I know where the full article is, The Rambling man - that doesn't answer my questions.

  • Why is the manager list restricted to those who have managed for 50 games? This isn't a restriction on any other English club manager list - and Ipswich have had fewer managers than most clubs.
  • Why 50 games anyway? It's an extremely arbitrary number. This means that Paul Jewell can't be listed under Ipswich managers until he's been there for over a season. It does not make sense. It makes more sense to list permanent managers. robeff1 18th July 2011

It's not stopping it being too big - at the moment you've got two lines explaining why the current manager isn't listed as an Ipswich manager, instead of one line with his record. 50 is far too arbitrary, it doesn't make sense, and it's not used for any other club. I propose it's changed to list all permanent managers. robeff1 31st July 2011 —Preceding undated comment added 23:59, 30 July 2011 (UTC).

I agree, the current rule does not make any sense. I can see the reasoning for excluding caretaker managers who only managed a few games, but Paul Jewell (and Mick O'Brien) clearly should be in the main article Dergraaf (talk) 20:26, 31 August 2011 (UTC)

I don't see why PJ and Mick (in particular) "clearly" belong in the main article. PJ is mentioned and his stats are updated both on his page and the managers page. Perhaps the best solution is to move all the managers off this main page, that way no-one can complain. The Rambling Man (talk) 07:07, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
The problem with lists like this on mainpages is that unless they have a clear criteria (as this one does) you can end up with things like Barrow_A.F.C.#Managers where you have all sorts of odd things (1977 and 1985 for example, we clearly good years). Either you have a clear entry criteria for the list or a prose summary of the most important managers (in this case, Ramsey, Robson and Burley are the most clearly obvious inclusions) and a link to the list as shown. Blue Square Thing (talk) 10:01, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
Inclusion criterion is clearly stated: "Only managers in charge for a minimum of 50 professional, competitive matches are included here. " so I don't see a major issue. If anyone really does have an issue then I'll remove the lot and just point at the main list. The Rambling Man (talk) 10:23, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

Okay, I had a re-jig. Only permanent managers shown. The Rambling Man (talk) 11:04, 1 September 2011 (UTC)

1974-75 season.

Maybe this is common knowledge with you guys but I've just noticed that Ipswich would have won the league in the 74-75 season had it been 3 points for a win (and Goal difference rather than goal 'average'). Ipswich Town and Derby County would have both finished on 74 points but Ispwich's goal difference would have been +22 and Derby's +18! ..and anyway,their goal 'average' was better.. http://www.statto.com/football/stats/england/division-one-old/1974-1975/table 92.129.99.233 (talk) 06:33, 1 April 2014 (UTC)DESLAWSON

The LFC

Would it be worth adding sections for the academy and/or LFC at all? The L.F.C. are in the same division as Norwich's, and they consider it notable enough to mention theirs... - Cheers, Burwellian (Talk) 20:07, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

Definitely. What sources do we have? It'd be a good thing to add a section dedicated to the Ladies, but better still a standalone article, assuming they meet WP:N I suppose... The Rambling Man (talk) 20:08, 8 January 2015 (UTC)
On my phone making it difficult to do more than simple edits; 3rd time I've tried to type this out already... Ladies have a section on the ITFC official site though seems pretty basic, plus their own twitter. If the Norwich Ladies pass notability then ours would as same division surely? As for academy, it has it's own site itfcacademy.com though no official twitter account; the itfc academy twitter is unofficial, with Simon Milton's account being as close to official as it gets there. I know twitter isn't an ideal source, but maybe usable to find better sources. - Cheers, Burwellian (Talk) 23:31, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

Honours section

This section is poorly formatted, with youth team, reserve and friendly tournaments mixed in with the pro honours. Wiki doesnt typically list such tournaments for clubs in this section, and the club website doesnt list them either so they are up without citation. I think the section needs an overhaul in line with other clubs as part of the consistent standard, at least distinguishing between the different ranks of tournaments (maybe have a pro honours list first, followed by reserve, youth and friendly). Davefelmer (talk) 16:21, 2 July 2018 (UTC)

Make a proposal here and we can think about it. The Rambling Man (talk) 16:35, 2 July 2018 (UTC)
Section made and sourced below. Not included Amsterdam Tournament as its a friendly nor the youth and reserve team tournaments as those arent senior honours either (FA Youth Cup, Suffolk Premier League) nor do they appear in sources. Davefelmer (talk) 16:27, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
No reason to not inlcude friendly tournaments, we have articles about them so we can just note here that they're non-competitive if necessary. Youth/reserve honours are honours nevertheless, this isn't a "senior honours" section, and I can easily source them, so there's no problem with their ongoing inclusion.

The typical consistency across club articles is not to list friendly wins. Nor are youth cups/reserve honours listed either. I'd hesitate to include them as it goes against article consistency but more importantly I have looked and cant seem to find sources for the Amsterdam tournament of '81 nor the reserve county matches. I did manage to find sources for the Youth Cup wins, so if you can provide sources for the others I'd be happy to look at the picture differently. Otherwise I dont think they should be added, as in theory this is a pro football club page and these arent 'professional' honours, plus they are unsourced. Davefelmer (talk) 01:49, 5 July 2018 (UTC)
Well no, this is about a football club per se not just about its professional era. Thanks though. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:59, 7 July 2018 (UTC)
Well, do you have sources listing the friendlies and regional reserve games? Otherwise they should be removed. I can take it to wiki football if you prefer. Its a source based encyclopedia, not one for original research. And article consistency I'd feel counts for a lot too. No other club lists friendlies, no need for this one to. Davefelmer (talk) 21:02, 8 July 2018 (UTC)
Feel free to take it wherever you so desire. Just because we don't have a source for it right now, it doesn't mean it isn't reality. When I get some free time I'll look into it. As you know, sources exist and there's no doubt that all the claims made are 100% factually accurate. Of course you could spend your time sourcing them rather than trying so hard to excise them, but that's a different issue. Thanks though! The Rambling Man (talk) 06:20, 9 July 2018 (UTC)
OK so we've had a couple of weeks to look for sources in support of including this information. I have scoured the internet on multiple occasions and have not found anything. You have had time as well so if you have any info to bring, please share it here. Otherwise, I will be changing the article section to remove unsourced content and content that also in general doesnt belong in the section. Your idea that "there's no doubt" all claims are "100% factually accurate" is based on hot air and unfounded and not the way to include information on a source-based encyclopedia. If you revert the changes, we'll have to take it to the football project page. Davefelmer (talk) 02:15, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
No, it's fine. You have no consensus to make your change. And actually, I haven't spent the time chasing your demands because that's not how Wikipedia works. By all means tag the items you dislike with [citation needed] and we'll work on it from there. If you change the article without consensus, I will simply restore it to the version that was accepted when this became a featured article. So not only will you be wasting my time, but you'll be wasting your own time too. And if, say, you continued to pursue your own agenda rather than apply a consensus-based argument (e.g. like the FA voting) then it's highly likely that you will be prevented from working on any articles in the the future.

Um, if you wanted content included on a source-based website, surely you'd take a bit of time to find some to settle the debate. But if you have no interest in doing so, I will go and seek consensus as you say before making changes. No idea what agenda you are referring to apart from wanting sourced content to be the basis of what is written here, as is the purpose of the project. Anyways, happy to let the consensus decide. Cheers! Davefelmer (talk) 23:19, 26 July 2018 (UTC)
Um, you probably don't realise how many pages I have on my watchlist, how many featured articles, featured lists, good articles etc I curate, but no bother. Of course, I never said I had "no interest" in doing anything so please, reduce your hyperbole. But yes, consensus is required to make the kinds of wholesale changes you keep engaging in. Good luck with your journey! The Rambling Man (talk) 20:01, 29 July 2018 (UTC)

Isn't Elkan Baggott on loan at Gilingham?
