Chambers: Positive Results Will Come - Ipswich Town News

Skipper Luke Chambers insists that positive results will come if the Blues continue playing as they are at present. He says the squad still believe they can beat the drop.

"The belief is still there that we can get out of it,” Chambers told iFollow Ipswich following the 2-0 defeat at Middlesbrough yesterday.

"We know if we can carry the plan through that the manager has brought in, the results will come. They have to.

"It’s enjoyable to play in but the results are not enjoyable, but I’m convinced that will change.

"No one would have expected us to get anything [on Saturday] against a squad that has cost millions but we dominated the game for periods.”

Chambers felt the key moment at the Riverside was referee Jeremy Simpson’s decision to award a harsh penalty when Jordan Spence was adjudged to have hauled over Jordan Hugill as they challenged for an aerial ball.

"The referee’s decision for the penalty changed the game,” he added. "That was frustrating and some of the decisions that have gone against us lately have been baffling.

"Every tiny mistake seems to be punished at the moment but that’s what happens when you are where we are in the table.

"The way we're playing is still encouraging, though, and it's enjoyable to be a part of.

"Yes it's a results business but we can't continue playing the way we are and not pick up good results.

"We need to be more ruthless when we are on top in games and have more belief in attacking areas."
