  1. Not forgetting Perraud of course.
  2. I suppose it should 🤔
  3. Is that all? Not good enough.
  4. “If Martin doesn't get us up this season” then he never will.
  5. But he’s taking up a place that could be better used by somebody else.
  6. Very walkable. Ok if it’s not tipping down with rain.
  7. They coach Russball. It’s more important to them to have a goalkeeper who can be an integral part of a possession obsession than one who can do the fundamentals of goalkeeping. They see a goalkeeper as a quarterback and not as the last line of defence.
  8. I got some but my snake didn’t like it.
  9. They aren’t real ??? 😰
  10. “statistically” 🙄
  11. Agreed. They don’t close down players quickly enough. They don’t run at them. They just stand off, turn on sideways and hope that the ball doesn’t hurt them too much if it hits them. A common factor in most of the goals that we concede is the amount of space and time that we concede. If a player is ruched then he is more likely to make a poor shot. Ipswich’s second goal took a slight touch of the inside of Harwood-Bellis’s right leg on its way to beating Baz’s outstretched fingers. If HB had been closer to the attacker then he might have got in a proper block. Get in their faces FFS
  12. I have fond memories of the ‘Chrissy Marsden football genius’ waltzing through their team and rolling the ball into their net.
  13. Greatest league in the world, innit.
  14. If we lost all our remaining games, yes, as I read the table.
  15. Isn’t Stephens doing that job?
  16. Watch out or the Bögli Man will get you.
  17. Only ‘a lot’ ?
  18. Thanks for your good wishes. I used to live up your way from 1953 to 1964 at Dovercourt and my dad went to watch you in the early 1960s when Alf Ramsey was in charge. Our specialist shopping was either Ipswich or Colchester but my train set was bought in Ipswich as a Christmas present. The Wembley pitch is the international standard of 105m x 69m. Portman Road is 102m x 75m St. Mary’s is 105m x 68m Not a lot in it but your home pitch is at least 6 metres wider.
  19. Isn’t Stewie out of contract?
  20. I rather suspect it should be Rolf Bögli The British are piss poor when it comes to spelling the names of forriners with weird characters in their names.
  21. Maybe he doesn’t have the nerve to take us further. Maybe he’s not brave enough. Maybe he’s the Billy Liar of the division, chickens out when it looks like he might get what he wants.
  22. I remember that game well. That was in the days when we used to go to away games.
