| News Comment | Morsy: I've Found a Good Level of Consistency at 17:50:17
Doesn't have a bad game. Last Saturday was his poorest game for a while - at fault for their goal and a couple of misplaced passes - but still one of our better players in that game, vitally important at driving us forward. So hard to find players so strong and comfortable at receiving the ball in dangerous areas. Crucial IMO that we start developing/bringing through a replacement for him - his engine won't keep going forever and he'll always be missing 5-6 games a season thorough suspension. |
| Blog Comment | Part One: The Descent Into The Marcus Evans Eras at 19:53:57
Good, balanced article, slightly more sane than the hysterical abuse directed at ME and accusations of 'happy clappers' from some stuck-records on this site. As you say, the fact he continued to fund our losses (and will have made a large loss overall despite a transfer fee profit), should not be ignored. There have been a lot of worse owners in the last decade. That notwithstanding, they were dark days - the club was allowed to rot from the top, and you've hit the nail on the head - the problem was an overall executive management team which was inexperienced and uninvolved. I do think we were massively unlucky too - to be relegated at a time without parachute payments, and then to watch all these 'smaller clubs' get fat on Premiership money. Hopefully we'll be able to put that right in the next month.... COYB |

Seems really very reasonable - to be honest they could easily have put them up 15% bearing in mind the demand is there. Tickets will sell out within a couple of days i reckon. |

Nah - when we lost Didz and Waghorn. Christ it was poor. A teM of triers. McCarthy could only make a silk purse out of a sows ear for so long. Still, those dark days are behind us now. Love this current team like none other. |

Good for us that this is working out, regardless of where OH ends up - Chelsea (and similar) will see the value we add and be more encouraged to lend us other talent |
| News Comment | Town Rebuff El Mizouni Bids at 16:35:02
What I don't understand is why we don't let him go - with a decent % sell-on fee. Would be best to accept a low-ish up-front offer, get his wages out of the door, and then reap the benefit if he kicks on. |
| News Comment | Brighton Winger Sarmiento Set For Town Loan at 11:09:28
Exactly what I was thinking Norwich - move Broadhead up front. Not a Hirst replacement as such, but much more mobile than Ladapo. Then sign a target man (on loan?) also. |
| News Comment | Rotherham United 2-2 Ipswich Town - Match Report at 23:00:15
Harness does seem to do better as a sub. Hirst seems very off thr pace at the moment. Jackson is a good worker but v little end product - again, better off the bench against tiring legs. Generally a reasonable performance against a team who are no mugs (beat Norwich, drew at Southampton), and which we deserved to win IMO. |
| News Comment | Bristol City 0-1 Ipswich Town - Match Report at 22:22:58
Broadhead, Chaplin so important to us. Burgess and Wolfie awesome at the back. Jackson put a real shift in. Subs were mixed - Omari dangerous as usual, but we lost a bit of shape. Scarlett is yet to impress - very poor when he came on. |
| News Comment | Trio in Top Championship Select XI at 13:03:50
But, kudos to Hladky - not many of us would have predicted that he’d be in OUR team, let alone the Championship team of the season (so far). So good with his feet. |
| News Comment | Trio in Top Championship Select XI at 13:01:40
Because it’s a team of individuals, rather than a ‘good team’ - every midfielder that’s there has been banging the goals in, it’s totally unbalanced and wouldn’t work as a team. As usual the creative players get the glory, but we all know that Morsy (and Luongo) are immense, the former utterly vital. As long as he goes under the radar of the Egyptian national team so we don’t lose him January I am happy! |
| News Comment | Broadhead Nominated For Goal of the Month at 15:28:14
NIce goal, but Dozzell's strike is more explosive, Connolly's header is such a clever finish, and that Leeds goal is just class - what they looked capable of doing every time they went forward in the first half back in August (Prem strikeforce, League 1 defence...) |
| News Comment | Scott Duncan - Football's Forgotten Man at 15:00:35
Fascinating article. I understood he was a key figure in our history but didn’t quite appreciate quite how much. To think there were days we could blow Man Utd away financially!…maybe he becomes the third statue outside PR - with McKenna to take the fourth in a few years time… |
