Indeed. Humphreys sounds lively. Although just heard the phrase “Skuse, quickest to the ball” do something is amiss. |  |

Oh dear (n/t) on 20:28 - Aug 9 with 1998 views | IpswichKnight | Why do we do this every year we treat this cup with disdain and get a kick in the nadgers from it, we did not need to make these changes. Fear this will be a repeat of Newport have all the play but no cutting edge and lose 1-0. |  | |  |

Would you prefer us to be under the cosh for most of the game and occasionally scrape a draw? |  | |  |
Oh dear (n/t) on 20:34 - Aug 9 with 1849 views | Wallingford_Boy | I know it’s hardly a priority, but Jesus Christ.. be nice to win a cup game… at least once! Lots of very average players out there doing nothing to stake a claim for a place on the bench. Time to bring on reinforcements. |  |

This is the chance for Aluko, John-Jules and Jackson to stake a claim by actually scoring. Oh well. |  |

We have an ongoing issue of not converting our dominance in to goals. Don’t you think? We need to be more clinical. 75% possession 9 shots 1-0 down That to me is pretty frustrating |  | |  |

We have Jacko and Aluko up front! Ladapo needs a goal, tonight we play a weak leg 2 side, he’s not on the bench. Yeah, yeah it’s ONLY the league cup…. Zzzzzzzzzz. |  |

Listening to the BBC essex commentary, sounds like if Humphreys could finish we would have been 2up before they scored. |  | |  |

For a fanbase so that's so palpably ready to respond to something good and exciting, our representatives do an amazing job at trying to ensure that we end up having to sit back down again and watch the footballing tumbleweed drift by. I'm sure that we'll avoid the mistakes of last year in the league again, but this scoreline is a reminder that our existence as Town fans is a precarious one when it comes to excitement. |  | |  |

I agree we have an issue with the rate of conversion of the chances we create. But I also love watching us dominate teams. I’ll admit that it can be a tad frustrating to watch when we are a goal down (like tonight), but we haven’t lost many games this way…..it’s been mainly draws. I guess I’m surprised at the number of comments on here about our failure to be clinical, when it wasn’t long ago that we weren’t good enough to create the chances we’re getting now. |  | |  |

I actually find that watching Town dominate to little result is more frustrating. 60%+ possession and fluid play is pointless if you don't turn that into a win. 'll take an even scrappy game where we put the ball in the net more than the opposition any day. |  | |  |

Really?! Remember this isn’t Lambertball with loads of possession and no chances. We are creating chances! What you’re describing sounds a lot like MM. |  | |  |

To get out of this division, which is all that matters, you do whatever it takes and McKennaball won't do it |  | |  |
Oh dear (n/t) on 22:00 - Aug 9 with 717 views | Wonky | It's not 'dominance' what it actually is the away side sitting deep on a lead, with a well organised (Chambers) defence, handling our slow pretty build up play. |  | |  |
