Yeah Ipswich not won yet but they've had a break to get their shit together. Its not a happy hunting ground for us at all. Last win was 2 decades ago (and that makes me feel old - I remember watching that game in a pub in Manc). So hard to really predict because you'd imagine Ipswich have to improve and fast but we can go there and frustrate their already frustrated fans by keeping the ball.

I'd say first goal might be crucial in a game like this and concentration and not folding is important. Don't want to start like we did at Cambridge. Go there be fully focussed and mean business. Clean sheets have to be the first priority now and then see if we can convert some of our possession into goals. The longer the game goes on level the more nervy and edgy they will get.

I'm going tomorrow. My only other previous visit was that 1-0 win in 1997, so hopefully I'm a lucky charm. I think I'll need to be. Ipswich fans seem to be very confident despite their start. Apparently they've played well in patches but all the new signings (19 all told!) haven't quite gelled.

Confirmation bias or not, we all know that sinking feeling when a side hasn't won in ages and we're next up :roll: . I'll be delighted with a point.

Happy to take an away point today. However, I have a nagging feeling that we need to make up the two points we dropped on Monday, and how wonderful it would be to do that at Portman Road. 😊 #barryknight

Good feeling today. Lee or Sheehan to start?

Kachunga winner off the bench would be nice.

I'd definitely go Lee today. Fills in better than Sheehan. At home to Rotherham I'd go for Sheehan though.

Not sure we’ve found balance yet really in there. I’d be tempted to start Sheehan ahead of Sarce today just for the set pieces and perhaps he can find some space on the ball in more advanced areas. Not that Sarce has been anything other than superb thus far. We just need to find a midfield balance.

I'd go same team as Burton. Got to reward good performances. John needs to earn his way back in. Lee did enough to keep his place. Sheehan on for one of Lee or Sarc.

No game in midweek to half-plan for, so let's go for it. I can see the argument for keeping the same XI, it would certainly be a boost for Gordon and others fighting to get in, although I do think we might miss DJ and Sheehan. Good subs though.

Me too. Sarc is our metronome, he has to start for me. Sheehan a great option on the bench.

Sheehan in for Lee but Gordon keeps out Dec; Aimson on the bench. Tutte and Brocky drop out of the 18 to make way.

Not sure I’d have swapped Sheehan back in for Lee, feels like we’re a bit too open with this lineup.

Pound to a penny they make the first speculative shot on goal. I'd like to be wrong. Come on you Whites :oyea: :oyea:
