Middlesbrough v Ipswich Town Match Preview

[bjorks]

Haven't u noticed yet, when ipswich lose so does everyone else. So we will still have a chance! I believe we will grab/pinch a winner at the end, on the break. Still believe in the blue boys

[barmy billy]

I do not like to be negative, but I think we will go down 3-0 tomorrow.

I know your father said "grow up son" but don't cry like he does..

[loudnproud]

3-1 to Boro im afraid......hoping the reverse psychology works

We have got to get it going sooner or later, pressure + TV spells probable nightmare but looking at fixtures today they are all biggies.

I honestly fancy a shock win to us, but way things are going a probable draw is the more likely outcome. Losing is just not an option today lads.

Get fired up and stuck in!

[lucy]

Town: Gerken, Chambers (c), Mings, Smith, Berra, Skuse, Bishop, Parr, Tabb, Murhy, Sears. Subs: Bialkowski, Clarke, Anderson, Chaplow, Bru, Varney, Wood.

[James Scharmann]

So Bishop in for Chaplow. I do feel Bishop is wasted on the wing but will see how it goes today.

[Dazzz67]

Good start! defending??

[James Scharmann]

Great start 1-0 down and Gerken going off injured

[ipswichtownNo1]

Get the f@!k in there!!!! Murphy

[Dazzz67]

Boro sleeping! well done lads, hope Gerks is ok

[James Scharmann]

I don't believe it didn't expect us to even score today and Murphy scores after a goalkeeping howler

COME ON 23 GOALS NOW FOR MURPHY

[Magicmark]

Wow that was pure class..Now go destroy them

[ipswichtownNo1]

Gerks sounds ok from tv reports

[James Scharmann]

Murphy shot deflected onto the post so close

[ipswichtownNo1]

Mings looking out of it a bit. They are closing him down real quick on the ball. Just sold berra short.

[James Scharmann]

Smith booked

Typical should be 2-1 in front but no they score another goal from a set-piece

[ipswichtownNo1]

2-1boro. Well worked free kick.

[Dazzz67]

Just turned TV over, everytime I watch them they f'in lose, hopefully things may change lol.

[ipswichtownNo1]

Turn it off dazza!! Only kiddin. Every town fan thinks the same, cos we ALWAYS lose on sky. Saying that its not bad performance so far except the score

[Dazzz67]

lol, back on now so don't blame me if we lose, boss wants it on, sure he just loves watching me suffer, he is a Palace fan lol.

Harsh, being a palace fan he (or she) must know what its like to lose so should not put you through it!!

[James Scharmann]

8 mins added on in the first half

[James Scharmann]

Bishop booked

8 mins added on in the first half

Not surprising after Gerkens injury......

[ipswichtownNo1]

Mings off at half time. Put parr at left back and another attacking midfielder right midfield. Mings doing nothing and poor on ball today

[Magicmark]

Best I've seen us play for a while..carry on like this we will get something out of it today..fingers crossed.

[ipswichtownNo1]

Have to agree mark. Actually looking forward to second half

[ipswichtownNo1]

Boro should have got a penalty there!! Got iff with that one

[Shed on tour]

Bishop booked

Yet the Boro player wasn't booked when he went in with studs high on Berra.
Again inconsistent refereeing
