Here we go then.. Let the OTIB meltdown commence..

Not at all. Not calling for the managers head - simply saying when his contract expires and we let him go - I just hope the next manager can take this club forward

Can't see the club extending Pearsons contract at the end of the season. 

3 games in...

Could be a positive wake up for SL? Spend some of the £25m well and quickly or this could be a relegation fight by the next window.

[Spike]

Almost 3

2-0 down and down to ten men, no shots on target, can’t string two passes together,  are we still playing better than them?

Pearson has not  done FA

So he’s done something?

We're the ones with 10 men...

At home and barely heard our fans, all a bit embarrassing today.

[ChrisBW]

Absolutely dreadful no creativity.

That miss will be Pearson’s fault too

No, not at all but overall we have been shite today and you know it.

Pete, rather than rail against your fellow fans, why not instead describe the game. If people are getting it wrong why don't you do it right?

I honestly think we’ve been alright. A bit meh. But 2-0 flatters them. Scored a worldie volley and a breakaway against a team with 10 men about 2 minutes after wells misses from 3 yards. Poor but doesn’t turn us into a horrific side overnight. 
 

I’d say this is the beginning of Pearson being under pressure though. Clearly hasn’t got a good relationship with the ownership and with 7 months on his contract will be very cheap to get rid of. 

[Wanderingred]

Find something better to do on a Saturday guys.

What is there to cheer about or get behind? Feel sorry for the season ticket holders.

Yes but the worry is we've created next to nothing in all 3. Big few days ahead.

I don’t think it flatters them at all. Been very comfortable in 2nd gear.

Watch them get a 3rd

[Johnr1986]

If we are at our maximum in our wage structure it begs the question why we have brought in bang average players to, quality over quantity 

[W-S-M Seagull]

Have I watched a different game to the rest of otib?

Well you see when the game started and it was 0-0 we had 11 players and a chance, as their fans cheered them along ours sat silent in their own stadium...

People seem to get off on it. You can’t defend today. Add the two previous performances it’s going to worry people.

3 shots on goal in 3 games. I am worried that’s for sure.

As in what, this team is no better than last seasons efforts, you cannot blame Scott going.

[yatesuperreds]

Team really needs investment

So OTIB’s season seems to be over in August. 

[Spike]

Constant diagonal long balls into the area..... none of them coming close to threatening Brum and yet we continue trying them.

Re read my last post. Saves me re explaining.

[Tim Monaghan]

The Mark Ashton / Ipswich thread has gone a bit quiet. 

[Rossi the Robin]

I really celebrate when we win and try not to get too down when it’s shite, but today I’m fuming 

[pillred]

At least the gas lost 2-0 as well.
