as previously said by me he hasnt been hard done by he was only dropped when he got injured and missed about 3 games since coming back from that injury on and off.
where are all the "stop dropping wright" cryers please?

I will admit I was surprised when he wasn't playing but that was because I'd been thinking this injury had cleared up. Makes a lot more sense now why he's been in and out of the squad.

Ok Blueknight i will take the bait

Season so far for David Wright and Ipswich

Blackpool cup won 2-1 ,played
Leicester drew 1-1,bench

Preston lost 2-0 ,bench
Boro drew 1-1 ,played
Qpr injured
Peterboro lost 3-1 ,bench
Sheff Weds won 1-0 ,Played
Scun drew 1-1 played

i think anyone can see that when Wright has not been playing we concede a number of goals , and if he is on the bench it must mean he is fit enough to play or he would not be on there so that counts as being dropped ,he has been in and out for most of the season apart from two spells one where he was dropped and we were very poor and one spell he played consistently and we conceeded very few .I think he adds stability in my humble opinion

Surco

That is a nice set of stats and I am not saying you are wrong but Wrighty playing is not the only factor.

The way RK tinkers with the team week in and week out has a lot to do with results. The unbeaten run we went on also co-incided with Delaney and McCauley finally finding a partnership in the centre of defense, plus a very good keeper in Begovic, which L-B did well to cover for when he left.

So to use those stats to say that Town only perform well when Wrighty is in the team is somewhat misleading.

I wasnt trying to say we only perform well when Wright is playing ,i was answering Blueknights post from before the Sheff Weds game and again today that Wright has not been dropped by Keane ,when clearly like others in the team he has been in and out a lot due to changes and team selection rather than injuries .
And i agree you have to take a lot of factors into account for individual games ,but if i was Wright i would be maybe feeling a little hard done by as his goals conceeed in games he has played and results we have achieved must be quite high compared to when he has not played ?
As for Mac and Delaney ,they have been a revelation but were playing in the Coventry,Preston,Saints,Peterboro games of recent and we let in 9 goals. In that time we played against Blackpool,Brom,Boro,Sheff Weds arguably better sides with Wright and only let in 3 , perhaps he is just a lucky mascot this season !!

David Wright is a good player. However Rosenior has also done nothing wrong at right back. Wrights performances at left back have been okay - yet I think he is better on the right.

Agree jas, ideally a left back should be a natural left footer which David isn't and that makes us a bit limited on the attacking side too because he often has to check his run and get the ball on to his right foot. By that time we've lost a bit of impetus.
