Go into Newcastle game with respect and humility. Really good side picking up good results lately and outstanding qualities. Go in with eyes wide open. But know our own strengths and off a good result. Last home game before Christmas. |  | |  |

Looked back at Wolves game, pleased to see it out and get winner. Every point precious but three can make a big difference and that had to be our mindset. If we're competitive in games, then moments like that come. |  | |  |

Bobby Robson, massive legacy left here, 30,000 not down to KMc, down to history of club and generations of supporters and so much of that from Sir Bob's team and his success. Great affiliation and good times at Newcastle as well. Someone loved and remebered fondly by people at both clubs. |  | |  |

Lessons from last week, lots of good things in performance. Up to their goal we were the better side in the game. Liked progress in the second half. Our intent in the second half was good, trying to find the second goal. Had moments to get it but didn't manage to before the end. But saw as in previous weeks that opposition can score at any time, they hadn't had many chances or shots at that time. Made a couple of small errors and ball was in the net. We take confidence and positivity from having got a late goal. If we get games to the final moments, subs can come on and get us a result. |  | |  |

Mindset has to be to get second goal. Worked hard on game management and has been better. Need big impact from subs, spoke about it again this week. |  | |  |

Think we've progressed as season approaches halfway mark. Easy to say after win. The way to see it is how competitive we've been in our last six or seven games, one-goal margins, shows we've been able to be really tight in games. Finding a balance defensively, not giving away many chances. Some of those who have come into the club, Dara etc, having arrived late, there's progression, same with Conor Chaplin, Jack Taylor, who have come through the divisions, their performances in recent weeks, there's been progression from them. |  | |  | Login to get fewer ads

Hadn't expected to be in this position after three years, brilliant journey, but still further to go. Remembers first Christmas in Salthouse Hotel. From football side, has all happened very quickly. One moment in the three years? You'll have to give me two, the two promotions. |  | |  |

First home win would be amazing. Performance and win would be a terrific Xmas present for all linked with the club. Had some good days already this season with the games we've won and some of the draws, but we know winning a league game at Portman Road will be a special day. |  | |  |

Delap ban, spoke to the referee after press conference, there's a rule that if there's a fracas on the pitch someone on both teams has to be booked. Watched back the incident, don't see any fracas from our players, but Liam got booked within that. Disappointed about that, had been on good form, was playing well. With George out, makes it a different challenge for the weekend, opportunity for other people to step up. |  | |  |

Options, pretty clear, probably got four or five people who have played as a striker, obvious ones, Wes Burns as well. Ali most natural four we have in the building in terms of profile we usually play, but short of match fitness. Omari played in central positions last week. What's important is we have different qualities in the squad, will need people to step up across the 90 minutes. The team which starts not any more important than the one that ends. Got an idea of a team which starts and finished. |  | |  |

Hirst not back over Christmas still a bit off, Axel further behind but might see him late Jan.

That's baffling. So did the ref just chose a Town player at random? Apologises, Liam, I thought you were an idiot getting booked. Others said wait and see and, yet again, they were seemingly right. |  |

Same. That’s one of the most batsht crazy rules in the game I’ve heard of, and there are plenty! |  |

Maybe KM meant that when a fracas happens you can't just book 1 player involved and as Delap appeared to have been the first town player involved that's what he also got a card. |  |

That's actually positive news on Axel - looked at one point like it might be quite a bit longer than that |  |
