Reply | A few years ago my son went to school in his Town top
at 12:24 26 Apr 2024
My son went to school today in his school uniform. Walked him in this morning and all the other kids were wearing their uniform too
Did see a couple of Town bags, and one Man City one, but that was about it |

āWe have right now lots of load. It's also same for Ipswich, also have to play three games within seven days and before, two weeks without a game so itās also for them difficult you have to be honestā
I donāt like Farke and obviously hope Leeds come unstuck tonight, but f**k me some people are desperate to whine about anything on here atm |

They mean they would rather they can sell/offload him this Summer rather than pay another seasons worth of wages without being able to play him (as even if he suddenly shows a huge turnaround in form they canāt afford to trigger the fee) |

4 years ago there were no English semi-finalists either, the following year was an all-English final
Itāll take more than one season for English teams to no longer be seen as the dominant force, and likely this season will prove an outlier as you say given the relative finances of the leagues. Although of course, teams like Real and Bayern will remain strong and fully capable of knocking out anyone |

I donāt think thatās their premise at all, just that when the aspiration is promotion the bar is that much higher, and therefore not unreasonable to hope for more than 2 points from home fixtures against teams placed 9th and 15th in the table |

It might do but the OP is spot on about opportunity slipping through our fingers
Had we won yesterday we would have a 4 point gap to Leeds, and with them having 2 tricky away games before we next play. Quite possible therefore that we would go into that 3 game run knowing we need just one win to finish above them
Saints could theoretically catch us still, but youād think them winning 5 of 5 is unlikely, so one win would probably do it against them too
Instead, weāll now almost certainly be behind, just a question of how far
Iād actually go one step further than they have too, had you told me on Friday weād have gained points on both Leicester and Leeds over the weekend Iād have been over the moon, but it still feels like a huge missed opportunity |

Following the theme above Iāve thought for a while more teams should try a couple of early warning shots, for that very reason. Not specific to playing Ipswich, but top level football in general with the modern high keeper approach
I know this is very much opposed to the modern approach where possession is (quite rightly) valued, especially in transition which is where these opportunities come, but strikes me that there could be some real long term benefit if it forces teams to adapt and change the way they play against you. Not to mention the benefit if it actually succeeds! [Post edited 11 Apr 15:47]

Indeed, the last 2 seasons in League One we spent more than every other team in the league, then more than the whole league combined in fees. Our wage bill last season was comfortably the highest in the league
Obviously that isnāt the case this season but using figures from 2 years ago isnāt reflective either, our wage bill this season will again be higher and my own best guess is weāll be just inside the top half. So a phenomenal achievement to be where we are still but not quite to the levels some are suggesting in this thread |

Two. The other two of the top 5 have not won anything, and neither of those have made a final either unlike England
Itās almost like international tournaments only come around every 2 years and require a lot of luck and fine margins going your way to actually win |

Couple of those stretching the definition of building from the back (looking at you Harness v Hull and inparticular Davis v Brizzle), but good lord, some footballing porn right there |
