Anybody know why he seems to have such a down on ITFC?
It was only late in the second half when he seemed to realise we had stopped Coventry playing and were by far the better team.
I’ve rarely heard such bias. |  | | |  |

They have always picked the narrative before the start of the match and try and make it fit. Today it was that Coventry are unbeatable at home and they have Gandalf in goal. |  |

Didn’t pick up on that at all. Both commentators seemed fairly consistent in feeling we were on top for most of the game | | | |

Was going to say exactly the same, very confused when their plan of how the game will
pan out falls apart. |  |

I thought he was full of praise at times for us. |  |

Exactly the same. Thought he was very complimentary towards us throughout the game. |  | | |

seemed a well-balanced commentary to me. By no means a Lampard love-in. | | | |

Think you could probably accuse a few ITFC fans of that too. I thought the co-comms was pretty balanced and reasonable, but you never hear fans saying "I thought the commentators were biased in our favour"! | | | |

Yes, at the start he was saying how Coventry were the better team and were unlucky at Portman Road. By about minute 25 he changed his tune however and was far more reflective on what was happening on the pitch with his comment. |  | | |

I dont think he was anti Town, certainly not in the same way Don Goodman always is.
its just he was doing that typical modern football commentator thing of instantly calling a decision, they then watch the replay, and instantly completely 180s and pretends he never called it wrong first up.
like I think and you can pick any of these when Azon,Kipre of Furlong got fouled, and its like "theres nothing wrong with that/Ipswich trying to win free kicks here/they should stay on their feet more" gets the slo mo replay, "that was totally a foul/Coventry were lucky not to get a booking for that".
same with Clarkes goal, at first it was brilliant, by the end of match it was merely a lucky deflection the goalkeeper had no chance with, even though he then made him his man of the match, because he'd stepped up like he'd asked to him in his pre-match team assessment and scored a goal.
it gets a bit frustrating after 90mins, even if he's chucking in the odd compliment our way. | | | |

Liked it when he said "If coventry are going to have to play through Grimes to get going" (or something like that.........Moments later kicks the ball out for a throw haha | | | |

Paranoid, no fan of Hinchcliffe but thought he called it right tonight. In fact he was very complimentary about us. | | | |

I liked the bit where he was saying how Jack Clarke has not done enough for us this season at the same time that they had a graphic up saying he'd scored 7 goals in just over 900 minutes of football. | | | |

He was a lot more positive about us than a lot of posters on this forum.
Just saying… |  | | |

Yeh I agree, thought they were fair. J2 gets an uppie though for the Gandalf line, that was funny! [Post edited 30 Dec 6:33]

Same goes for refs. On a hiding to nothing. | | | |

Really? He was fairly complementary all game and honest on both teams. | | | |

That point in your third paragraph is spot on, especially the number of times Mason Clarke barged Furlong over. Not sure how he avoided a booking purely on the number of fouls he made. |  |

That's the first time I've watched us on sky for a good year or so. As some know there are other means and ways to watch a match. Hinchcliffe and Goodman are normally very anti Ipswich and they sound very similar in voice. But last night hinchcliffe was fairly level in his comments. So much so he almost called Mason Clark a cheat. In all honesty we were so dominant for a large part of the game that even with bias you would eventually say well done ITFC
In spite of this I won't hurry back to hear them again. |  | | |
