16 points is a big ask but not an impossible one and, after a run of generally poor form since Christmas, it would take that sort of return for me to genuinely go into next season with confidence. 

16 points from the remaining 9 is exactly, to my mind, the target to be given to him. Its a stretch, but as you have already indicated certainly far from impossible with the teams we have to play. 100% spot on.

BTW a return of 63 points would be our 3rd best points total since 15/16. 

Unfortunately, once we get over 50 points i can see things fizzling out, as the players start thinking about being on the beach.

Bollox. Good 60m but France too strong in the end. Amazing atmosphere with the roof on

Unlucky Kid, but France the better team.

Your Photo is upside down - if you put the 6N table upside down, Wales would be top

Ah lads. Now you resurrect the thread 

Well done to England. By far the better side. We got murdered up front. JVDF, Bundee and Crowley the only positives for us. Should've lost by way more.

That was a great game. Just got in from the pub. Englands best game since that 2019 semi final. To beat such a good team should give them massive confidence. 
Ben Earl deserved MOTM today and is Englands best player at the moment, but Sam Underhill was amazing too. Also Waboso. Fantastic

We are going to get done by an innings + here.

This thread sums this forum up at the moment. Youth team reaches semi final, and weirdos moaning about LM/BT. Just **** off

How ******* funny would it be if we got battered by Swansea, Liam gets the heave-ho and the Three Wise Men replace him with Joey Barton

What is there to be positive about Tonyx3? We are on a run of 23 points from 21 games and have lost 4 in a row.

If you care to look back at my posts from last season you'll see I was positive about performances in games that we lost. 

I'm calling a duck a duck. 

For me, I expected us to put in a better performance against Ipswich because its the same sort of game as Southampton, West Ham, Forest etc. Games that suit us. So we were only better by default really and in the end we were totally outclassed by Ipswich so in some respects you can say we've gone backwards. 

What can we take from last night that will be relevant to the Swansea game? 

Last night's performance has taken us backwards?  

There was plenty of endeavour on display last night, something that has been missing in recent games. If we can take that to the Swansea game we have a reasonable chance of getting a result. I do agree with you that Ipswich away, is in the same bracket as the games against Southampton, Forest and West Ham, but that doesn't mean the performance last night was in some way guaranteed. The lads put a shift in, against a good side, and could have won, or drawn the game. Ultimately, it's another loss but i can still see the positives from last night.

Let's be honest here. The only people who are being positive about us LOSING is Liam Mannings biggest fans. 

Yea we fought hard etc and had a few chances but it was nothing to write home about. People are talking like it was the performance of the century. Ipswich concede a lot of goals whilst scoring a lot. Rotherham scored 3 there for example recently. So us scoring twice wasn't really as special as people are making it out to be. 

The first half we barely offered anything going forward. 

Where is the issue, with looking at the positives of the performance? You are so glass half empty it's ridiculous.

For me, it was a decent away performance against a team at the top of the league. Far better than the last few games, where we have been terrible.

I suppose you have little choice but to be negative, saying as your mind is made up already.

It’s not about tonight, it’s about realising the bloke has only taken a QUARTER of the available points on offer since 27th December and we’ve now lost four in a row. It’s an absolutely disastrous performance from him in this period.

I thought this thread was about tonights game.

The guy simply cannot react to in game changes. 

Ok, but for balance are you giving him any credit for the starting team, the Conway substitution etc? 

Some mental posts here tbh.

I dont think you can fault our endeavour, and a significant improvement over the Cardiff game. Unfortunately Ipswich dont ever give up and we made a few individual errors.

You would have to be very polarised to directly blame Manning tonight

What a game. Im a little  shouting at the TV 

Come on boys. 

Decent away performance so far. Set up looks good - very good without the ball. Players look up for it. 

Ipswich look very average

Im glad that the myth of Chris Wilder has been blown up. He really is a *****

If it remains as shit. If we finish in the lower reaches, he should depart in the summer and give a new man a chance to work with the players, identify problem areas and recruit accordingly. 

I hope we are tapping someone up now, because it's not impossible for us to be losing 7 games in a row - the 3 we have just lost plus the next 4 (Ipswich, Swansea, West Brom and Leicester). 7 losses in a row, you would have thought, makes his position untenable. Holden was sacked for 6 in a row, Johnson 4 (Pearson 5/7). If that happens, we need a new manager in to guide us through the remaining fixtures, where we will need a couple of wins

Gives us the opportunity to counter attack, which is where we can do some damage.

Do you not have the intellect to understand the difference between "We will go down to League Two" and "I would not be surprised if we ended up in League Two under these ****ing jokers"?

Never mind. I'm sure that you will be straight on here to tell everyone that I said that we would be in League Two when it doesn't transpire. 

Christ.

Don't piss yourself. The very suggestion we will flirt with league 2 football is utterly mental tbh

There are no positives from today. Let's be clear, we are a team playing poorly with a coach looking like a rabbit in the headlights.

We are in deep shit, and the next few weeks will be very very difficult.

I merely said that I wouldn't be surprised. 

 

FFS.

League 2? Seriously ? Today has been shite, but lets not get ridiculous

Unfortunately they won't fire the mood hoover (love that!) even if we are relegated. 

I honestly wouldn't be surprised to see us in League Two before long.

Lets not lose our shit completely.

1) If relegated Manning is of course history

2) We wont be in Lg 2

FFS

Disgraceful interview. **** off Liam. Throwing players under the bus will only result in losing the dressing room (if not lost already) and then the inevitable happens.
