Why are some folk slamming the new loan players after 1 and 2 games?! - it is incredibly harsh....

I don’t understand the point in signing more players on loan unless we need to cover for injury. It’s a policy that’s not done us many favours of the past decade and I can’t see it improving us this season, just pouring money down the drain on midfielders we can’t play. It’s just signing for signings sake again.

Because we've just got used to our new team and now there are yet more strangers in our team?

Bakinson has looked very average for me. Thompson should have stopped the cross for the goal.

I don't think, despite the ridiculous amount of practise they've had... that a majority of fans can process defeat

Because they are utterly pointless, disruptive - and demoralising for players that actually play for Town?

Because prople are unwilling to credit the opposition with effective tactics which nullified our attacking threat by not allowing any space or time on the ball, plus crowding the active playing zone so they were able to intercept a lot of our passes.

Stylistically, we are not a team of hard-tackling bruisers (certainly with Morsy out), so we didn't have the tools to counter that.

Good Lord! Whatever is it?

Same reason they moan about the intonation of Brenner's voice.

Trust the process. Trust Phil.

Hearing the SheffWed commentary on iFollow yesterday reminded me of how good Woolley, Mills and the others actually are. But then perhaps some people want biased cheerleading rather than useful, objective analysis.

We are very one sided in this country when it comes to commentary. You watch a nhl game and follow the home teams commentators and it is hard to tell which team is theirs. They always look for good play and a decent match. Quite refreshing really.

Supporting Ipswich is
1-never thinking the opposition are just better than us so therefore will win
2-always finding 1 or 2 players to blame for everything and never crediting them with anything good
3-still believing we should be competing for European places because we did it a couple of times before
4-deciding who to turn on before they have kicked a ball or taken a training session


I've never known it to be different, and because of our plight for the last 20 years we haven't had the opportunity to witness how that would change in the vastly different digital and social media landscape we now have.

You don't realise how true you are. One defeat and the knives come out looking to over-react. One win and it goes overboard with "HMS P*ss the League" etc.

The modern supporter can't take one win/loss in isolation and accept it for just that, rather than it means we're great or terrible.

You must be pleased your boys are making such a spirited attempt to avoid relegation. Well done Dean Smith I say. Not sure about that away kit though. The colour reminded me of the plate on old peoples’ false teeth.

Exactly this. Except that we can see the tactics didn't work yesterday and its frustrating to watch a team with greater potential play badly every other game.

No Coulsen, no Penney, no KVY.
No Morsy, No Evans, no Carroll. Admittedly we could have played Harper.

Think we need the cover.

Hot Take era.

Some people feel a desperate need to “call it” as early as possible.

As someone else pointed out, Edmundson’s and Aluko’s debuts were underwhelming and even Celina looked well off the pace on his. On the other side, Edwards and Harper looked like the main men (and still could be) when they came in.

I expect they’re also the sort of people who think anecdotal evidence and opinions are not just the same as statistics and facts, but even more valid just because it’s their anecdote or opinion.
