Hamas will no doubt want to avoid further civilian casualties like this and so drive out into the desert for one glorious final battle, away from built up areas.

Certainly seems a bizarre decision, now that Russ has come out and said that. KWP hasn’t been at his best since his injury but you still start our best player in a game like Ipswich. Having said that, it wasn’t the reason we lost yesterday and the players he did put out generally acquitted themselves well, for 65 minutes at least.

I can’t for the life of me get my head around that. Nathan Jones tenure here was the very worst I’ve seen from any full time manager, there was not one redeeming feature about it. Ugly, route one football which produced appalling results, including defeats in pretty much all our winnable fixtures. The guy didn’t score a single point at St Mary’s in his entire tenure. So called Russball is like any other philosophy; people like it when we’re scoring goals and winning. If Bednarek’s header had been a foot lower and gone under the keeper yesterday it’s 1-3 and the game finishes completely different. Suddenly everyone’s talking about it being a highlight of the season.

You've got to be f**king joking now?!

All three goals were completely unchallenged shots from inside our box, whilst the defenders stood and watched. F**king useless.

F**k this game.

I wouldn't want Bree letting him through there if Lev Yashin was in goal. It wasn't a red IMO but it was the right call to make the foul.

It doesn’t matter if it’s near the post or not. When a shot is hard, low and from close range it’s very, very difficult to get down to it at all. Doesn’t matter if it’s one meter away or three, you’ve still got the same distance downwards to travel.

Any well struck shot from inside the box, if it stays on the deck, is going to be very hard to get to. Gravity is a universal constant, whether the shot is in the corner or not. He’s nowhere near as bad as Forster and Kelvin used to be, getting beaten by low shots from well outside the area.

Unmarked, first time shot from inside the area, which goes through a defenders legs and people are slating Bazunu.

Fallen asleep in the last 5 minutes. Our own fault.

Aaaaagghhhh, Armstrong was on there.

Not quite a throw in from Che’s shot - he’s improving.

So you’re just going to ignore his distribution, playing through their forward line when they press forward and finding our players up the pitch? The fact that both our goals started with him collecting the ball and distributing it forward quickly, whilst Ipswich were still up the field is irrelevant to you? You don’t think the shot against him being an unmarked howitzer from inside the box has any bearing on the goal?

Brilliant first half performance that, hope we can keep it up. All those posts slating him, based on nothing more than a club tweet, are starting to look a bit daft.

Last league game we failed to score in. We’ve now scored at least twice against every team in this league except Leicester.

Ooooooffffff that was a good move.

I’ve no idea what you’re referring too or what you think was achieved by booting the ball away.

You want to see us loose our heads and pick up pointless bookings?

They can f**k off with their booing, they were happy to play on when they had the ball. The ref too, FFS.

Get in, f**king brilliant!

Thumping finish but far too much time there. A shame as we’d been playing well up until then.

A good job we are then really, isn’t it.

Perhaps it was hoped that he would be able to play both games but having assessed his fitness since Boro it has been decided that on the balance of things, it's better in the long run to have him on the bench. All the matches are important, they're all worth three points.

It remains to be seen where exactly they line up on the pitch but who would you rather played? Manning?
