Comment | U18s at Walsham-le-Willows in Suffolk Premier Cup
by thecat at 13:38:09
On the surface it always feels like the competition should be a walk in the park, but in reality it highlights that there is a big difference between youth football and adult football, even lower league semi pro adult football. It will be a real challenge for the U18s to win this cup.
For example there are many ex ITFC players now in local lower league clubs, players that were regulars in ITFC U23s (or equivalent) that were highly fancied for the first team. These players have matured into men who are probably even more capable at the game.
It's literally a game of men vs boys. |

Good luck to the boys! Hope they win it this year.
However, shouldn't this sort of competition be a walk in the park for our boys, considering the support and development they should have behind them?
If we don't win it, shouldn't we be scouting the opposition that beats us for better talent? |

Comment | Spence: More Positives Than Negatives
by TonyHumesIpswich at 01:43:17
agree with most of what has been said above.
Knudsen: hasn't improved a great deal and makes too many mistakes.
Spence: fantastic going forward but gets caught out at the back. He can be our main attacking threat at times which says a lot.
Bart: looks very average this season and I wouldn't want to be a centre half playing with him at the moment
Lambert does need to build around these old MM players though. Edwards aside, I don't rate many of the new signings (saying that Roberts has put in a good shift last two games). Though Hurst is clearly a very likeable and nice guy,I believe he's really made a mess of our team which will take years to sort out. |

........ have to agree with ArnieM ref Knudsen, hasn't improved his game over the past couple of seasons, and continues to make the same mistakes.
Spence has much potential, but at times is far too lethargic - Bart' after all, has saved the team from defeat (or heavier defeats) for a few seasons now, and must get tired of of continuously being expected to do that.
A Goalkeeper just has to have confidence in a settled and effective back line - When has either of our Keepers ever been able to have that in recent seasons ?.
Problem with Gerks' is he will forever be a flapper - if he was ever going to shed that trait, it would have happened under Webster.
In many cases this Club has been far too easy to play for, or frequent the treatment room - far too appealing to some than a wet, cold winter day on the pitch.
We need all to have the Matty Holland attitude of being out there, and doing the business.
We'll get that with this Manager, believe me - or else. |

Don’t get me wrong. I’m pleased with the change in style PL has brought to the club. But we had one good half against a very poor Reading side. I can see better performances in the future, but whether they will be good enough to take points off the majority of teams in this division remains to be seen. I won’t blame PL if they’re not, and I’ll put him forward for a knighthood if they are. |

I'm glad "super bart" is slowly getting found out by you lot, i've always thought he was overrated and only a instinctive shot stopper and not a complete goalkeeper. He must be a nightmare to play in front of as a centre half as he's rooted to his line at crosses and why he decided not to bother getting his shorts dirty with the preston free kick i'll never know. So put Gerks back in for now and get an experienced complete goalkeeper who can keep us up in january. |

Don't panic, we need to finish 4th from bottom to avoid relegation NOT playoffs or mid-table. It may get nail biting, but under PL I think we can do it. Don't forget there are a number of other crap sides in this league. |

Comment | Where Did It All Go Wrong for Paul Hurst?
by SuperBlue67 at 16:59:12
Great article well written. My biggest problem with Hurst and I think cost us a lot points was the discipline. We have a history of being a clean club even with the Butch(hero). we got too many yellows and reds and that shows desperation. I wish you best Mr Hurst but we now have a proper manager and he is getting a team of League one players looking like mid table which to me is a great job in 2 weeks |

whats your take on this CHE? You dont believe we make silly mistakes? And we will survive the relegation battle if we continue to makes mistakes?
For us to survive the mistakes have to stop! End of! |

Comment | Reading 2-2 Ipswich Town - Match Report
by blueboy1981 at 16:26:12
....... Who really believes that we will average 1.3 points per game between now and the end of the season ?
Like I said - a monumental miracle will be needed to average that, whoever the Manager is - far too much ground lost in the first 15 games, is the reality of it all.
The right Manager is in place now though. |

Despite playing well in the first half we reverted a bit to type in the 2nd and were still unable to beat a poor Reading side , with the teams coming up we could be cut further adrift at the bottom and despite any improvements that PL (which have been outstanding so far) makes, we need points now to be honest , loose any more ground and that could be it for us sad to say.! , and if further adrift will ME be up for giving money to a battle it looks like we cant win ?? (i have no faith in him) , just praying we can cut the gap before xmas , and also with Arnie M on this one Knudsen is poor in my opinion also and keeps making the same errors , hopefully Kenlock will be back soon , and maybe even look at J.Emanuel at RB , not sure he will dislodge Spence though , but worth a look from PL. |

Fate is a fickle thing. How many fans would have had us getting 3 points from Swansea? not many I bet. this season should still not be written off and the improvements are showing. with loanees (possibly being recalled) and a couple (if any) of additions in January we could (and should) still finish mid table.
