League 1 - Ipswich Town vs Forest Green Rovers Preview & Matchday Thread

[Charnwood]

I can’t believe Fleetwood are holding Plymouth 0-0 and Bolton 1-0 down at Wycombe. Sheff Wed now in front 3-2 v MK Dons

[marko69]

And Scotty Browns stats for his Fleetwood side are not too bad at Argyle.

[marko69]

Can't speak for anyone on here......, but I DETEST the 5 sub rule. It is a feckin nonsense.

Sheff Weds 4--2 up on MK Dons

[Charnwood]

Sheff Weds 4--2 up on MK Dons

They look the most likely League One Champions to me. They just don’t know when they’re beaten.

[Cabanas Blue]

Freddie gets his goal our slow fox in the box.

[Charnwood]

Another well worked goal for Freddie Ladapo.

[mendipblue]

Ladapo nice finish to a good free kick

[marko69]

'Bout time Fred!!

[Charnwood]

Could Terry Butcher be right with his 6-0 prediction.

[marko69]

Could Terry Butcher be right with his 6-0 prediction.

That'll be all he's done right for a few years.

[mendipblue]

Davis hits the post unluckily

[arana peligrosa]

Said before time the game would end in a 4 - 0 win for us but we should really try for further goals to improve any goal difference over other challengers.

Irritated that Sheffield W oveturned their half-time deficit but times like this maybe better to focus on own club objectives. Bolton could lose and Plymouth
drop points with it, maybe some have given up on any automatic promotion chance but those would be clear favorable scores if they remain as they are.

[mendipblue]

Fair play to Forest Green they haven't parked the bus and have had ago from the first minute .

[Steve]

Should of been 5 it seems

[marko69]

Should of been 5 it seems

Should've been 10

[mendipblue]

Ladapo misses from 3 yards out unbelievable

[Charnwood]

How on earth did Freddie mid that header from 3 yards out in added time.

[lucy]

Sheffield Wednesday seem dead set for Top 2. I feel we are still in with a Shout if Plymouth continue to Falter.

[mendipblue]

3 pts clean sheet move on.

[marko69]

Ladapo misses from 3 yards out unbelievable

And on another day, that is a massive issue. Today, it brushes things under the "4-0 win" carpet

[arana peligrosa]

it says 24,000 were in attendance today. Don't know, maybe expected more what with the Sir Robert 90 year anniversary and all. It's still a very good crowd but thought maybe a few more seating allocation would have been taken.

I got full-time score of 4 - 0. First and foremost we did what was needed. I expected to win but they were never going to lie down for us and allow us any victory. Other results were mixed, shame Derby and SWFC got victories but Plymouth and Bolton drop points. SWFC score five ?, didn't quite spot that.

all told, a very good score for us, valuable win, seemed we earned it, players redeemed themselves today after some recent poor scores, and back to third in league standings. Maybe we won't get automatic promotion but today showed once again we got certain attributes and when the team pulls together, results will come our way and belief and hope remains well and quite intact.

[Dazzz67]

Well about time boys, good win, pity was not a few more for the GD.

Now we will go on a run and close down Plymouth, Sheffield Wed's are uncatchable as far as I'm concerned.

[JohnnyB]

Good day for Town today. Comfortable reassuring win and Plymouth drop points and Bolton lose.

Can Town make up 8 points,on Plymouth by the end of the season? If they can win next week at MK while Plymouth falter at Peterborough, I'd say, yes they can!

All well said, Saint......, and let's hope it is not another Deja Vu 4-0 like Morecambe. The next game @ MKD will be very telling indeed. Has the manager learned anything from his sides decent reaction from the Brovers debacle. Must say, today's starting line up was very positive indeed. Not sure many would've had it any different.

[Bluemike]

Much better today but against them it should be, could well have been 8 but for the woodwork, keeper and couple of sitters missed but few complaints at a 4-0 win.

Results elsewhere went our way for a change and there's a glimmer of hope looking at Plymouths next 5 or 6 games..

Starting line up was ok apart from Ladapo should be in favour of Hirst, glad he got his goal with a brave header but then missed a sitter, as did Hirst. I thought Jackson was excellent when he came on and fair play to Luongo cus he looked pretty decent too.

lets hope Sir Bobby was looking down on the Town today, and lets hope its the start of a good run,

He's now looking down on Newcastle and having a chuckle. Mike was talking about the Pope earlier........, The Pope is a shambles today.

has been some weird results today mate, I think the Magpies will pull this back fingers crossed,

You can speak for me on that Marko!

Good win. Its tough to gain much confidence against the league's bottom club, but it does make things a bit cheerier, as does Plymouth's failure. Hopefully that settles things a touch, and with our 3 most important strikers scoring, it may help more than it should!!
