Ipswich Town away match thread

[P'head Red]

Sick and tired of this, time and time again 

[Bris Red]

Club is in crisis and in freefall, genuinely fearing a relegation battle now. An absolute farce and a disgrace that it could come to this.

[tin]

Great game for the neutrals and an improved performance, but all three goals were piss poor goals to concede from our perspective. 

[And Its Smith]

Sykes, McCrorie, Pring, Gardner-Hickman and Knight had shockers tonight.

We were working on them in training the other week apparently...

More time on the grass needed.

Ah right well that clearly didn’t work then 

[Spike]

Probably the first time I can agree with Manning if he says we weren't clinical enough. I feel for Max, saves a penalty and been let down so many times today.

[transfer reader]

There's something to build on for Sunday there.

 

Immensely frustrating, and suspect defensively in the 2nd half. But solid in the first half and created chances in the 2nd.

Need to find a way to combine the positives from both

This is nothing to do with Manning tonight, sorry. You can say that about the last 2 results, but this one’s on the players. Gutless and weak. 

Wow. You sure you were watching?

Bear in mind that Burns came on for 30 mins against a tiring half fit full back before you dig out Pring too much. Wells puts us 2 up like he should have and we win the game.

**** me the irony of you calling out someone for chatting crap! Fair play that's a classic

The irony of your post is not lost on me.

4 on the bounce. Great!!

[ralphindevon]

What a frustrating club we are, glimpses of great football against some good sides but ultimately let down time and time again 

[Midlands Robin]

Shit, ****, bugger and bollocks

[Lakeside Red]

******* useless defending 

[RedRock]

Cruel, cruel game. 

Deserved something from that.

[bearded_red]

Weak club. Top to bottom.

Losers.

[RollsRoyce]

Oh dear. But, we at least created chances and scored goals. But in the last 30 we were blown away. Much better than the last 3 games. 

Full credit to Ipswich, look at that squad, then look at the results. McKenna is a real talent.

No, I agree they have put a shift in, but their decision making has been so bad. Vyner needless challenge. Pring reckless challenge. Sykes weak. 

So you say they’ve been gutless & weak but also say they’ve put a shift in

Frustrating but I’ve no complaints on that performance. Well done City. 

Eh? We lost!

Yeah, that was a lot better watch than last three. Weirdly, Cornick going off was massive for us.  

[CiderHider]

Ah well.

2-1 up and makes no changes.

2-2 from a goal down our left, no changes.

Ipswich all over us and miss a penalty won down our left, no changes.

Ipswich score to go 3-2 and still no changes, no change of shape even with no subs, nothing at all. 

Manning is as much if not more responsible for the loss than the players.

We were never going to get anything tonight Ipswich far superior to us every time they attacked in the second half they looked like scoring….premiership bound they are.

Two words: game management. On field and off field.

Tim you've said some right crap before but this tops it all. 

Ipswich made changes, Manning didn't react. No plan b yet again. 

Sorry disagree, I’m not a Manning fan but you’re just playing to your predisposition. We played well for most of that game, it takes something for Pring to have been beaten for pace and Burns made all the difference. Difficult to see what changes could have been made. 

[Nugget]

Long drive home that. Fair play to the 400 fans making that trip, the ‘you’re not singing anymore’ was good while it lasted  

[Robbored]

That was a far better performance, largely because Ipswich came at us. Unfortunate to end up with no points.

Really? If you think we will play at anything like that level, which wasn’t that great anyway, you are deluded.

[George Rs]

Dickie looked tired as well tonight, one of the downfalls of playing the exact same centre back pairing since november. Only change i would’ve made was bringing on roberts after we scored our second.
