 | News Comment | McKenna: Matusiwa Making Really Positive Steps at 18:43:11
Mckenna must be delighted with Azor's start in English football. He is looking like a steal in the current market. Currently looking more defensive than Morsy, but gives the team good balance, as we have so many attacking options. First name on the teamsheet if he keeps his level of performance up. |
 | News Comment | Ipswich Town 5-0 Sheffield United - Match Report at 08:11:45
Brilliant performance from Philogene last night - he definitely had his shooting boots on and he linked up well with Davis. Furlong looked assured and Akpom showed some good touches. People criticising McAteer failed to notice the massive impact he had, because McKenna played him on the right and that meant that Philogene was switched to the left, where he was able to cut inside and cause havoc! |
 | News Comment | Philogene: A Special Performance For Me at 07:59:44
All that extra shooting practise is paying off. Three superb goals, the first one was similar to what Omari used to do and goals 2 and 3 were even better! Only the second hat-trick of the McKenna era, but hopefully more to follow. |
 | News Comment | Chaplin's Portsmouth Loan Return Confirmed at 13:47:17
Sad to see Chappers and Woolfy go, but appreciate that they left to get regular football. Changing so many players in one transfer window is not usually a recipe for success. It is a high risk strategy and will test McKenna's ability to get the best out of the newcomers sooner rather than later. |
 | News Comment | Travis: Cajuste Tackle Totally Accidental at 07:22:30
Travis, you shouldn't further embarrass yourself by calling your stamp on Cajuste a 'tackle'. The video evidence clearly shows that the ball was nowhere near your point of contact on Cajuste's chest. If there is any justice, you should be getting a lengthy ban, and the same should apply to the ref who did not take the appropriate action for such a dangerous, cowardly assault. |
 | News Comment | Young: We've Not Got to the Level We Know We Can Reach at 07:36:51
Great player and competitor and he definitely still has a winning mentality. Young delivers quality from corners and free-kicks. I'm hoping he will help to get the best out of whoever plays on the right wing - Philogene could be the main beneficiary. |
 | News Comment | McKenna: Woolfy's Made It Clear He Wants to Go at 06:53:39
O'Shea is generally reliable, but yesterday was the worst performance I've seen from him, as he was bullied by Derby's number 9. However, as captain he is now undroppable, otherwise we would have seen Kipré brought on as a sub. McKenna used to rotate the centre backs depending on the opposition's strengths but that is clearly not happening now, so I don't blame Woolfy for wanting to leave. Our defending was poor yesterday, and cost us 2 points, but none of those guys will be dropped. |
 | News Comment | Eustace: Disappointing Not to See the Game Out in 'World Record' Injury Time at 22:23:26
Eustace losing all credibility after those comments. He clearly sent his team out to waste time and con the ref at every opportunity and complains about some of those lost minutes being added back on at the end. As for Lewis Travis, what a pathetic individual - should have seen red for his cowardly stamp on Cajusté. |
 | News Comment | Newcastle Rebuff Town Loan Approach at 07:39:40
We only play 2 midfielders and we already have 4. I would prefer Humphreys over this lad on loan. Our priority should be to sign another striker and a left back. |
 | News Comment | Ipswich Town 1-1 Southampton - Match Report at 16:52:29
Matusiwa did well today. He has big boots to fill and he was repeatedly fouled, and being given the occasional hospital pass from Palmer didn't help, but he coped with all that was thrown at him and looked like a solid addition. Also, Philogene showed encouraging signs. Great support from the stands as usual. |
 | News Comment | Morsy: Hutchinson Exit Should Have Been Smoother at 13:36:27
Er Sam, so are you saying that if Ipswich had insisted on a fair fee for you instead of letting you go on a free transfer, you would have behaved in the same way as Onari has in the last 2 weeks? Hypothetical, but I like to think you would have behaved like a true pro... instead of a spoilt child. |
 | News Comment | Broadhead's Wrexham Move Confirmed at 18:38:33
Good move all round. Silky player, who can be a game changer, but often hampered by injury and rarely lasted more than 60 minutes. I'm still wondering why we let Morsy go for nothing, we should have held on to him until January. He would have been invaluable for the next few months and we could have given him a proper send off. |
 | News Comment | Chaplin: Role Model Humphreys is Going to Have an Incredible Career at 13:52:17
Not much love for Taylor on here today. He offers something different, but we haven't got the best out of him yet. Humphreys can play in lots of different positions, scores goals and can deliver a decent cross from the left. They should both be playing tonight. |
 | News Comment | McKenna: We Found a Way to Battle For a Point at 08:01:06
@Dissboyitfc it was Jack Taylor not Jack Clarke. He went over to rescue Chaplin who was mobbed by Birmingham's players after he kicked the ball into the top tier following up the penalty. Some muppet from the crowd also got involved, as he clearly felt 11 v 2 were not good enough odds in the melee. Probably the best thing Taylor did all night was protecting Chaplin. And the ref's response was to book Chaplin - I expect the FA to take an interest in the whole fracas. |
 | News Comment | Birmingham City 1-1 Ipswich Town - Match Report at 23:13:23
Not a lot of quality in the game, but we hung in against an intimidating atmosphere and opponents who left their boot in on numerous occasions. Hirst battled away for 100 minutes and deserved his reward tonight. Ashley Young showed good composure and we played better after he joined the fray. Happy with a point, but we must protect the ball better instead of treating it like a hot potato. |
