Can't help but feel that he got it wrong today. Macateer shouldn't have started as he looks completely shot to bits. Egeli so much more of a threat when he came on but too little too late.
He then takes off Philogene who seemed to be our most likely outlet and just finding his feet. Nunez clearly flagging for the last twenty minutes but delayed taking him off when we needed more energy.
5 days to go and we can address the centre midfield issue and more importantly, the number 9 role! |  | | |  |

Interesting post FB. I shall watch the game back tomorrow, but I’ve seen nothing in the more recent home games to disagree with it. Yes, who??
Anyway, I hope your dad had a better day today, Frimley. |
Thanks Church, updates from my sisters is that he's had a better day, think it's that hard decision time where hes going to end up in a care home unfortunately, but you never know, things may chance, but we'll see.
I think you'll enjoy the game when you watch it, it wasn't bad at all really, we just didn't hurt millwall. Millwall had some limited spells, but the majority of the game was town after i'd say the first 10 minutes.
Unfortunately, we just didn't have that killer instinct when we got close to their box, like each player was just waiting for someone else to make a moment of magic.
we're close, we really are. but there is definitely a missing ingredient or two |  |

You can see we are almost where KM wants us to be
We are solid at the back, we've got that organisation off the ball resolved imo and we're starting to see real patterns of play showing. Our issue is that final ball or lack of really
That Nunez chance where he should have played Egeli rather than trying to put in akpom.. that was golden.
January is big. I don't think this current squad has enough in it to get a big run of wins together to get that top two, but with some very carefully selected signings, we could very well go on one.
Striker and a 10, even if that cost us £30 mill to do it one two real high quality signings, that's where our money should go
Who.......... that's the question |
The attackers need to be practicing taking first time shots. There's really no need to be taking a touch, then passing when in the opposition box. Even if it's blocked, at least it gets the crowd up a bit. |  |

Thank for the update Frimley. Glad he had a better day. Decisions like the one you may have to make re a care home are really tough. As long as you make a decision for the right reasons, you won’t go too far wrong.
Stay strong and make sure you and your sister look after yourselves.
Yes, I’ll watch the game. That lack of killer instinct in front of goal is frustrating though oddly our goalscoring record isn’t the worst.
I detest Roy Keane but he made a good point after the Utd/Newcastle game tonight. All good teams are built on a good defence. McKenna did that in his first six months here and overall (apart from the odd comedy goal) our defence is looking more and more solid. Just that killer bit in front of goal to sort? |  | | |

The subs are surely predetermined, that seems fairly obvious to me. |
But to do that makes no sense!
You have to consider the progress within the game and how different players are doing |  | | |

When I read stuff like this, I worry for the future of our club - so many of you have so little idea what you’re talking about.
Kieran McKenna is the greatest Ipswich Town manager of the modern era and one of the most promising young managers in world football. |
Christ really you rate him that high?
Yes I know he had back to back promotions which should be and is appreciated by all Town fans.
But if he’s that good why didn’t he manage to just finish 17th when we were in ‘the promised land’?
That in my book was a massive failure. |  |

Especially when Sunderland and Leeds are fast destroying the oft-repeated myth that the gap between the Championship and PL is “insurmountable”
Difficult yes, but if McK was such a genius we’d have finished 17th
Instead the season got worse as it dragged on
Watch some of the Sunderland, Leeds matches the players show at least some guile and fight. We had none, it was simply pathetic
And this mindset and performance has continued into this season still the same crap on the pitch 90% of the time even when we are playing crap teams like Charlton, PNE and Oxford | | | |

I guess people are mis remembering we are amongst a 15 games in 9 weeks period and at the start of 4 games in 8 days. Let’s ease off the constant criticism and opinion based presentation of facts around selection and subs in December. All this management of minutes really only starts to show up as good decisions or poor decisions by the time we get into the run in for home. As of now we are third with fairly few injuries owing to over playing. [Post edited 27 Dec 2025 7:38]

Agree with what you said.The table is so close at the moment though down to 10th place it’s so open.
Yes Sunderland are doing brilliantly at the mo,and Leeds have won one more game already than Town managed the whole of last season.
Yet we sit in 3rd place. | |

‘your book’ also has pages where it’s acceptable to ‘machine gun’ people seeking asylum, so forgive me if I don’t take your opinion particularly seriously. |  | | |

Thing is he keeps getting it wrong regularly. For the best part of 20 months now. In fact he will soon have been as disappointing as long as he was successful with Town. |
Yes, it's shocking that we can't even challenge for promotion from League 1 like it was when he got here. |  |

Seems to be getting a lot wrong, is it the poor buys we have made. His selection of certain players or the formation he consists on playing.
However much I like McK, are fans starting to say in McKenna we don’t trust
How on earth we are 3rd in the table is beyond me and only shows how poor this league is this season and we sat with over £60 million worth of so called talent on the bench |  | | |

We are 3rd due to our consistency. Results like 2 consecutive 4-1 away wins, 1 defeat in our first 8 matches, twice registering 3 consecutive home wins, only 1 home defeat all season are too quickly forgotten. If we were more consistent, though, we would be 2nd. Coventry's consistency is another level, though. Compare the striking options to see why. As a collection of 3 strikers, I don't think ours would rate very highly at all in this division. | |

Chappers? |
Really need to stop looking to the past, enjoy them for what they did but they are the answer now.
Chappers has done barely anything at Pompey and I think many forget he played some games for us at the start of the season and also did nothing.
Amazing player for us but it's time to move on.

What a lot of nonsense, very few teams manage to stay up after going up nowadays, are all those managers massive failures?

When did a team last go straight from League 1 to staying up in the Premier League as well? People quickly forget where we have come from. | |
