braveblue added 14:33 - Oct 1 Clown. Says he has too many creative players injured. Bishop can't get a game and Dozzell not even on the bench. Not looking forward to another boring display.

WestSussexBlue added 14:38 - Oct 1 Honestly, We're the home team, We're desperate to start scoring and we name Teddy and Sears on the bench. Ahead of them Bru and Douglas make the starting Eleven??

prebsa added 14:39 - Oct 1 Portman Road looks empty half an hour before the game. Such a shame. Won't change until Mick is gone! No change in the line up is a joke! 4-5-1 at home is unacceptable. Playing Skuse and Douglas together at home is in unacceptable. One striker at home is unacceptable. You get the point.

McCarthy - "We need to score goals"
McCarthy - "Winning gets the crowds back"

McCarthy - plays the same 3 uninspiring, uncreative and negative central players we have that have done nothing for weeks and still insists on playing just one up front, even though it was glaringly obvious to every man and his dog that he was isolated on Tuesday.

Incredible.

Hold onto to your hats, Town fans, go going to be a real humdinger today!

surgery added 14:55 - Oct 1 Nice to see his plan of bringing fans back to PR is rolling. For the love of God will you look at that midfield. What a "win treble".

midastouch added 16:18 - Oct 1 What will it take for this daft manager of ours to realise you can't easily win a game when you keep putting out negative team selections? He thinks he knows best but the sheer lack of goals and wins clearly tells us otherwise!

Saw the last two games. Both were very winnable. But the way he sets us up we will never ever take games to teams. Skuse and Douglas are OK players but both were really bad today, really bad. Such a shame when there's bishop and dozzell and Sears all ready and waiting and able to bring an extra dimension to our play.

It's funny how close we could be. Now that Emmanuel (who has been excellent in these last two games) is playing right back, all it could take is bishop coming in for Douglas and all of a sudden we'd look a decent side. And then Webster coming in for either chambers or Berra ( neither of whom can reliably pass a ball) and hey presto we could start to play a bit and create some chances...!
