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. TWTD. | | | |

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. | |

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 ! | |
