Comment | McKenna: Proud Night Individually and For Everyone at the Club
at 18:46:08
Only one manager has won two promotions for Ipswich Town FC and that is Sir Alf Ramsey, so Kieran has the opportunity to become a legend in his second full season at the club. That is incredible progress by anyone's standards and he has done it by coaching players to play in the style that he wants to play and that we want to watch. We are privileged to have him at our club. Long may he reign! |

Comment | McKenna Named Championship Manager of the Season
at 06:47:20
Thoroughly deserved recognition for an outstanding manager and motivator. Undoubtedly our best manager since George Burley. Let's not forget George's team also played entertaining football, won promotion to the Premier League and finished 5th, which led to Burley winning manager of the season.
So I would say Kieran McKenna still has some way to go to top those achievements before he can be mentioned as the best since Bobby Robson. I hope he stays with us for many more years as then he will have the chance to surpass George Burley's record in the top division.
Well done Kieran, Leif, Wes and Luke - Ipswich Town is truly back on the football map. There should also have been places for Morsy and Hladky in the team of the season. |

Comment | McKenna: Proud of the Performance in Brilliant Game
at 07:27:52
Kieran McKenna is rightly proud of the magnificent effort that was there for all to see again yesterday. @Phil saying we 'spurned' our chance to go 3 points clear feels wrong to me 'missed out' would be more appropriate given what we witnessed yesterday. |

Comment | Hladky: A Good Point, Every Point Can Count at the End
at 07:06:52
Two amazing saves yesterday. Both getting deserved ovations from the relieved supporters behind the goal. I think Hladky may have even surprised himself with his save from the header. One of our top 3 performers all season - up there with Morsy and Davis. |

Terrific game yesterday and all of the players gave their all at a very noisy Portman Road. Al-Hamadi looks a good buy, but was running on empty after 40 minutes - he will be stronger next season. Chaplin looks a bit lost without his mate Burns. Getting Wes fit and Moore ready to start again could be absolutely key for us. Well done Coventry for getting to the FA Cup semis - I hope you go on to beat Man United after extra time. |

Comment | McKenna: We Didn't Hit Our Usual Levels
at 17:29:44
We missed Burns today. Chaplin is less effective and we lacked the pace to get in behind their defence. We will need Burns fit if we finish third. But it's still in our own hands after Leeds lost. |

Like most of the Saints he played well for 60 minutes, although he expended too much energy trying to get Morsy sent off. After the hour mark, Morsy took control and it was business as usual. |

Comment | Martin: We Were the Best Team, We Didn't Deserve to Lose
at 08:18:45
Russell Martin, I agree that Southampton played well and would have won most against most teams by playing at that level. But you came up against an Ipswich Town side that doesn't know when it is beaten.
In the second half you brought on a ten million pound player and other subs who made your team less effective, while Kieran McKenna's subs were more effective and timed to perfection. So thanks for keeping the game open and playing into our hands. I hope you go on to beat Leicester and Leeds. |

Wise words. Hopefully everyone is enjoying these special moments in this magnificent season thanks to our superb manager, coaching staff and never-say-die squad of players. |

Comment | Ipswich Town 3-2 Southampton - Match Report
at 21:36:00
I was concerned at half-time. Not just because we were 2-1 down and Moore had gone off. It looked like the ref was bound to give Morsy another yellow card in the second half with Southampton looking to exaggerate every contact with our skipper, and we would have really been on the ropes. However, the football Gods were smiling on us again as we got the last laugh on Russel Martin when they collected a straight red of their own.
Make no mistake this was a classic win in a fantastic season. Davis again showing a tremendous appetite and desire to get forward to devastating effect, even though he left the backdoor open a few times. Important game for many reasons, but one where Al-Hamadi can take a lot of belief going into the next game if Moore is unable to start against that lot up the road. Brilliant result! |

Comment | Duo in Team of the Week

Six forwards and a centre half on the right side of midfield. These 'teams' are always good for a laugh, and would be beaten by any decent Championship outfit due to their consistent lack of balance and defensive midfield shortcomings. |

It wasn't pretty but we did enough to win and the defence stood firm when under pressure. Great effort from Moore after Tuesday's disappointment, and Edmundson does so well when required. Hard fought wins are good for squad morale but not so good for the old ticker. |

Comment | Hutchinson: I Turned Down England and Jamaica Calls to Concentrate on Town
at 09:06:41
@midastouch while I agree that Hutchinson has been excellent and is a very exciting player to watch, I didn't have to think too hard about your question - the answer is Kieffer Moore! Before the big man arrived we were sliding out of contention for the automatic places - his impact has been off the scale. |

Comment | Al-Hamadi Out of Iraq Squad
at 17:21:35
Maybe we should get someone to take a look at the other Egyptian midfielders, they must be a talented bunch to keep Morsy out of the squad. |
