League 1 - Barnsley vs Ipswich Town Preview & Matchday Thread

[marko69]

Kind of expect six points from the Exeter / Fleetwood games even if the team fails in this.

Got to think “WIN” for tonight to be CHAMPIONS! No “fails”!

Come on, ITFC ——->> BIG win tonight.

[Bluemike]

Massive, massive game tonight, feeling the tension already, to win tonight and set up the dream scenario for Saturday would be fantastic, gonna be a bloody long day at work. COYB'S

[Blue Wilf]

It may be a 'free hit' as some have said but losing would put pressure on that we don't need so I see it as a massive chance to get us ready to take the next step up. We are the best team in this league and we should just play as we can and we will prove it. 0-2 Town and then a fantastic day out on Saturday! COYB's!!

[Charnwood]

I think we’re in the same camp Wilf. Whilst we have to respect Barnsley’s excellent form they’re not at the same level as Town and this should be a winnable fixture albeit a close contest of fine margins. They may well prove slightly more stubborn than Peterborough on Saturday but we won that game with ease and were a class apart.

I fancy our chances of winning more tonight than I would if we lose tonight and have to win at Fleetwood on the last day of the season. The players tonight should have so much confidence after Saturday’s result and with the cushion of two games to play not feel under too much pressure. Compare this with going into the final game at Fleetwood having lost at Barnsley, the pressure would be immense and interfere with concentration which is when things can go wrong and anything can happen.

Let’s not even think about losing tonight, get 3 points, win again on Saturday and let the trip to Fleetwood be a party playing exhibition of football.

[Shed on tour]

For me the best side in the league is the one that finishes top after 46 games. That may very well end up being us but if not finishing 2nd won’t be a bad consolation prize.

Having to win @ Fleetwood on last day of season (for promo) could be borderline disastrous.

Tonight is the night, because Ipswich will thump Exeter @ PR.

Go do it. Show what champions look like.

Edit: Not a fan of “double team” scarves……. But Tractor Boys / The Gas scarves for tonight

Been saying for ages I think it will go down to the last game of the season and I still believe it will. If that does happen, as long as we still have promotion in our own hands going into the game I feel we can get the job done. Obviously I would be more than happy if we can nail it at home to Exeter.

It's my B'day today..................and also my Wife's. Mad coincidence.

I have been strongly 'advised' not to take my phone when we go out for a meal later...

She thinks I'll be distracted.

She's right.

2-0 away 'birthday' win.

COYB

[Bluemike]

Has anyone used ifollow on an iphone? Just curious how the reception will be. I'll be on a personal Wifi network. I usually watch matches on my desktop, but I'll be on the patio today. Cheers!

[Bluemike]

I watched it on my smartphone while on a coach on route to Scotland, it was fine tbh.

I don't have a specific Ifollow app, I just purchase it through the ITFC site.

But as they crossed the border, the sun set; the sundials were ineffective, and everyone missed kick-off.

I don't think so. Not in the US anyway.

[shabba]

Re iFollow, watched many times via phone (browser) and its fine.

Usually watch on the TV via laptop, connect laptop to TV, full screen and it's all good, it does seema little jerky but I think that's just the way it is as the framerate likely isn't as good as a sky tv broadcast.

You need to receive it to your phone, iPad or computer and play it through your tv either by cable or mirror link but best by cable, but you will need to use a vpn in the UK. Message Bluemike to find which vpn he uses as he never has any problem with buffering or sound.

Me 'n' all. Or it was yesterday as it's 04:30h now; up a bit earlier today for football purposes.

[lucy]

I've got a Smart TV that has Internet on. I've managed to log into Ifollow just have to wait and see what happens.

[Bluemike]

Team unchanged

[shabba]

Good to see - no JD though and Leigh is on the bench in his place, maybe a knock for JD?

[Cabanas Blue]

Leigh on the bench but no JD COYB.

[lucy]

Anyone else starting to feel very Nervous?.
