I'll say Fleetwood away October 19'. Long journey, and a proper sh*thole.
Can't think of any since then, I'm sure someone else might. [Post edited 24 Nov 2020 11:17]

Thought it was just me who couldn’t think of a really important game. I realise it’s the definition of important but tonight’s pretty important | |

At the time I'm not sure it really qualified as being that important. It was early season and we didn't yet have the context of our inability to beat top 8 sides. It was just another game, albeit it a potentially tricky one. |  |

Totally agree but some have slightly more importance than others | |

I think by this thread everyone's judgement of 'important' is slightly differing.
I thought the OP meant in terms of where we are now as a club etc.
Think at the time Fleetwood had only lost 2 games in the league. That was the 11th game of the season so they were up there as well.
Felt important on the day, thought they were going to be a team finishing top 6 come the end of the season (which they did in the end).
I was basing that on where the club is right now (League 1 football club) etc, thought that was big game for us. | |

I guess it’s all about interpretation. As Swansea Blue states and I agree “all games matter “
For me they all matter of course but some are more important. In terms of where we are this season and where we hopefully plan to go , tonight is one of those that matters with importance | |

They had only lost twice in opening 10. Think they were 3rd at the time.
"we didn't yet have the context of our inability to beat top 8 sides" is slightly iorrelevant becuase on the day it was two top 4 sides playing, and they are always big games.
As it is tonight actually, it is still 1st v 3rd. If we win tonight, it will still be classed as a big match, big win feel, regardless of our general inability to beat top 8 sides. | |

It definitely felt a big win at the time. Not least because of Barton's antics before the game trying to put the pressure on. And we generally buckle at the first sign of pressure. I think a lot of people thought after that win that we were on the road to promotion. | | | |

I remeber Alex Mathie saying so on the drive home, think the words he 'doesn't think that many teams will be a serious test for Ipswich'.
In reflection, although no one believed it at the time (inc me), Barton's words were too true. | |

There were probably several afterwards, but I remember sitting back after the 2-0 home win against Middlesborough 14/15 and thinking we might really have a chance. It wasn't pretty, but we battled a very serious team off the park and were finally showing some real grit. We beat Brentford 2-4 a week later at their place and you really felt like we could take on anyone in the division.

We actually beat Hull in a really important game the last day of the season in 2006?? We won 1-0 but it still wasn’t enough to make the play-offs. | |

Rotherham at home in relegation season was a must win at the time and although we were embarrassingly hammered we scraped a win to prolong the pain.
But we are largely a hideously gutless bunch. |  |

Not sure they are big games when the season is less than a quarter of the way through to be honest. The league table is still taking shape at that point. I don't really think it qualifies as an important game. | |

Fleetwood away last season was our only win of any note.
We didn't even manage to score a single goal at home in FIVE matches against the teams that finished in the top six. |  | | |

In retrospect ...it's pretty poor really then isn't it
Oh well let's hope things change tonight
Underlying feeling is the obvious outcome but we live in hope....as ever ! | |
