He added: "I wish they would call it to my face on my own. Because his pint of lager, he would have been wearing it.
"I heard the comments and let me tell you if that's what they think about me and my team then they are sadly mistaken. I'm not having that.
"It really does hurt me, that. Up and down like a bloody fiddler's elbow. I'm alright (sic) one week but I'm not the next.�
The Tractor Boys now occupy 13th place in the Championship table going into their clash against Preston North End at home next weekend.
