No poise , no bite in the tackle - seem to be lacking in confidence - what’s the obsession with Hladky distributing to players in no position to receive? Hopefully a good shake up at half time ! |

I would rather pay a tenner to watch them play than our first X1 - at least they play with some pride in the shirt |

MM said that he didn't think we should change managers at this stage of the season as the best candidates might not be available and we should wait until the end of the season to get the right person. I think that the fans would be happy to see the end of Lambert and give Terry Butcher / Kieron Dyer the chance to show what they can do for the second half of the season - they would surely get more out of the players and playing more attacking football- if not then at the end of the season we have the choice to recruit a new manager but if we have progressed under these two we can extend their contracts |

Comment | Lambert: A Win's a Win But it Won't Change the Negativity

Dirtydingusmagee - TBF I didn't actually say we would be better - just that it would be the best time to judge the performances - when we have something resembling our first team not the side that we have had out in the last few weeks - although as I have said they have kept us third
Blue86 - I agree it's frustrating but I guess as others have said before what he says to the media and what he says to the players could be very different - wouldn't be much of a man manager if he criticised his players in public
Hopefully he has seen that 442 is an option - at least he made the call with his subs to gave it a try / will be interested to see what Saturday's line up looks like

Blue86 - in terms of why a good manager might think twice of taking the job you have to some extent answered your own question in that the weight of expectation that comes with the ITFC managers job from over ten years of disappointment and lack of success. They might look at the fact that we are third in the league and the ‘fans' are calling for the managers head. It will take a brave Manager who wants a very poisoned chalice
I don't disagree that the last ten years have clearly challenged our faith as supporters I was merely suggesting that it would be fair and realistic to reflect that the team we are putting out at this moment in time are clearly not our first eleven - they kept going - got the win- kept us in the mix and hopefully we can be better judged when we get some key players like KVY, Downes, Edwards and Bishop back in the team

Not often you see this on this forum but I agree with Betty Blue that the performances have not been great for about 10 games - takes us back to the 4-1 away win at Blackpool where I thought we played well and good value to be top of the table
However I think we need to acknowledge that of the team at Blackpool only chambers and Nolan stated yesterday - we are effectively paying our second eleven and yes we ground out a win but why not give credit for that rather than snipe?
It's a fair bet that the following line up of players unavailable to Lambert would come out on top of yesterday's team (3-4-3)
Vincent Young. skuse Wilson
Edwards Dozzell Downes Bishop
Sears Norwood Drinan
In spite of a whole first team being unavailable some fans expect their replacements, many still learning their trade, to deliver great performances, dominate in away games and win every game.
Why is that ? Is it just because we won the UEFA Cup 40 years ago ?
It's not about happy clapper or neg crew it's more about being realistic and fair

Michael101 - I am not sure how you can state that all the managers chosen by Evans have been ‘useless idiots ?
Roy Keane - promoted with Sunderland
Mick McCarthy - two promotions
Paul Lambert - back to back promotions
Really ? |

North Stand veteran - your comment that no other fans back their club like Ipswich fans is either ironic or misguided
We hounded McCarthy out of the club - would have done the same to Hurst if Evans hadn't taken prompt action and now we are hounding Lambert
No manager of any quality will come here - why would they ? |

at 17:59:02
Only one thing worse than beating a team with ten men and that's not beating them so well done to the boys for turning it round
Great experience for the young players in the team - Woolfenden, McGuiness, Mc Gavin, Dobra and Lankester - lets be honest they are under unnecessary pressure to out perform - so well done to them
With Downes and Dozzell due back soon it's positive for our future
Hopefully we can get Edwards, Vincent Young, Norwood and Bishop back competing for first team places for the second half of the season
As we have seen from results today it's a bonkers league so on the back of today's result let's hope we can get on an unbeaten run

For those that disagree that we deserved to win I would like to know what criteria you use to come to that view ?
According to the BBC Sport website We had twice as much possession - more shots - more shots on target, more corners and crucially more goals !! |

Good experience for the kids and none of them let us down / some fans question the value of the academy if the youngsters are never given the opportunity and then complain when they are ! |
