In my 40-odd years at PR, that was 1 of the more frustrating matches I've seen. Not quite Rotherham last season (or Tranmere in the early 90s, or an end of season MK match a few years back), but getting close. A few thoughts:

1. Why are we playing 2 holding midfielders at home?
2. When we are chasing the game, why do we keep both holding midfielders on?
3. Lawrence was our best player, Ward our leading goal scorer, yet we took them both off & kept on an ineffective Douglas & a subdued Scuse (who would be in my starting XI but as a sole defensive midfielder at home).

Ok, so it's only 1 thought really, but why? I've been a Mick fan until now, but really don't understand the negative approach to today's match.

Town really awful today against a poor Huddersfield side who were there for the taking, god knows how they are top of the table. As has been said many times Mick too negative with his tactics, made the wrong substitutions, zero creativity in an almost non existent midfield, therefore no attacking threat. Best on his own up-front anyway. Playing Douglas means we are effectively a 10 man team as he offers so little. My only positives would be Tom Lawrence, Josh Emmanuel and Teddy Bishop who once again did not really have enough time to influence the game.

worst Ipswich team performance in many years, this team is only going in one direction,down. must be worst midfield in the league,slow.ponderous,cannot pass the ball. never saw Ward beat the fullback once,Bru never made a forward pass and Best is never going to score many goals in a season,even if he had good service.it is going to be a long season with few goals.depressed blues season ticket holder.
