@StPhilipthe2nd @MarkJLittlewood @SeanGM400 I'm well aware of your stance and argument. My argument is that all parties should be allowed to canvass anywhere they like; your argument is they shouldn't in case it "divides" people, in this case the fans.

The problem with Britain is not that Ipswich Town FC issued this statement. It’s that they had to. In a sane Britain this goes unsaid 👇

Ipswich Town@IpswichTown

Following Monday’s visit by the Reform party and its leader, Nigel Farage, the club would like to issue the following statement: Ipswich Town Football Club has, over several years, hosted representatives from a range of political parties. The club remains apolitical and does not support or endorse any individual or party. The club will continue to engage with representatives from across the political spectrum as part of its role within the community. Ipswich Town is proud to be an inclusive, diverse, and welcoming organisation that supports all members of the local and wider community. This commitment remains unchanged.

As far as "bad things to happen to Championship clubs" go, I thought it was Sheffield Wednesday fans who deserved the most sympathy, but Ipswich have just taken horror to a whole new level.

@Adam_Townsend What a ridiculous thing to say from a grown man. A democratically elected leader of a mainstream party would hypothetically visit your club and you wouldn't get over it?? What about the thousands of fellow supporters who do support Reform? Don't they matter?

If Farage turned up at the Albion and used us for some PR, I think that would be it for me with football. I'm not sure I could get past it. Embarrassing from Ipswich. Feel for the many, many supporters who are probably questioning their club right now. #wba #itfc

@StPhilipthe2nd @MarkJLittlewood @SeanGM400 Well politicians couldn't go anywhere then, using that logic. They can't go to any organisation in case it "divides" people. They can't use social clubs, or Town halls, or shopping centres or meeting rooms in case someone, somewhere doesn't agree with them. Football is for all.

If I’m employee of Ipswich Town, I’d be taking a look at Nigel Farage’s voting record on Workers Rights, then start asking questions about why he was given a heroes welcome at Portman Road.

@StPhilipthe2nd @MarkJLittlewood @SeanGM400 No party gets the majority of votes. The government were elected regardless of the majority voting for other parties. That's the way our system works. Football clubs are the heart of communities so are a perfect place for the leader of a mainstream party, to hold meetings.

@StPhilipthe2nd @MarkJLittlewood @SeanGM400 Thousands of Ipswich fans vote/will vote Reform. They are on course to win Ipswich at the GE and are very popular in Suffolk. Why on earth shouldn't those people hear him? Democracy only works if all voices can be heard.

@MarkJLittlewood @SeanGM400 Even at their strongest they are getting 30% amongst polls. So that leaves around 70% of people who don’t support them. It’s just a poor miscalculation, poorly misjudged PR. That goes for any club who do it with any political party.

I don't know how those high up at Ipswich Town could possibly think that - complicitly or otherwise - allowing a political party to film an advert in the stadium, discuss the manager, hold up the shirt and display sponsors' names *wouldn't* be widely viewed as tacit endorsement.
