I can’t believe how often we give possession away.

We will struggle in leauge 2 with this line up :(
Surely not with the best squad in league 1. This lot are making last year’s squad look good.
Thing is Shed , that’s just it . We have a squad of good players , but not a “ team” …..

The board must have had something in line. Honestly I have never felt as low as now being a down fan. We do not have a bloody clue, No idea. Why keep changing the team as often as we do. That midfield is lightweight, they have no idea and the defence is just a mess

.... and I’m sure I read somewhere that somebody said why not give the job to McGreal & Dyer. I think that might need a rethink.

Think we will have to agree to disagree on that one Hallam. I just don’t see that these players are as good as people think they are. I feel that some of our recruitment during last summer has been poor to say the least.

I said the same the other day and was accused of being negative, but I know exactly how you feel.

Paul Cook wasn’t here long enough to do that. Sadly ITFC has been dying a slow death over many years.

At least his teams had shape !!!

Honestly this is like bunch of 11 year olds on local rec chasing the ball, One minute ball is left so all town players go there, next right.. see players run there. They do not have a clue. It's a total disaster

I can understand why he was sacked even though I think he should have been given more time. What I can't understand is that there seems to have been no plan about who would replace him. We are a complete mess. McGreal seems to be out of his depth.

This is genuinely depressing.

I wonder if any employees of the Arizona Highway Patrol are watching this. What would they make of the utter dross from Ipswich.

I'd want to know what the f*ck my pension fund managers are up to................

Anyone notice how appropriate the first half-time advert was - Erectile Disfunction

God we need some help getting it up!

The only throbbing veins I have are on the side if my head watch this tosh.

I feel so sorry for the people that have forked out for iPlayer this season is this is what it's been like.

Indescribable tripe.

Makes you feel ashamed to be an ITFC fan.

The new manager, whoever he is, will have a monumental task.

Please don't exonerate Cook from blame, he's done exactly what Hurst did but with Millions more, totally screwed it up.

I'm actually looking forward to my 9pm injection in the stomach, far less painful than watching this bunch of w*nkers.

4-2-3-1, or 4-4-2? Seems to make little difference to Ipswich!
Especially if the 4 in midfield play in a straight line. !
3 5 2 would at least give us some width. This is f**king sh*te no threat going forward what so ever.
Like I said 3 5 2 and we are better already.

A rare opportunity to take in live action and the team is playing largely sh*t. Guess it's just as well don't get to see much regular play. Wish the commentary team would quit with "this wll be an upset" bullshit, all right they're a league below but playing well. If they win today will it really be that much of a shock, not to us at least.

Can see peoples issue with the defense, only now can you take in the inadequacies of that part of the team although got to believe we have names available in attack to get something from this with time remaining. Going to see this tie out naturally and while not easy viewing thus far it's a rare chance
you got to grab. Bottom line seems they want it more than us, motivation seems an issue, not sure McGreal is the right name to deliver on that front.
