Willie Henderson Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Not to concede a goal in our first four games is very impressive, it bodes well. But we need Hutch fit as soon as. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brian Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 A bit sloppy and disjointed at times, but seven points from nine is a great start, especially from a team that are still very much a work-in-progress. Ipswich are proving that it's no joke trying to embed so many new players. Back-to-back home wins and four consequence clean sheets are nice stats too. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HIGHERSTATE Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 I get the feeling every team will 'take heart' and 'were the best team on the day' after not getting battered at Hillsbrough. Managers will spin some nonsense. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owls maniac Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 We made hard work of that, but some of the results tonight show that this league is no picnic. Let’s take the 3 points and move on to the Toytown game. We will get better as the season progresses IMO. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Down South Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Thought Gregory did well and liked the look of Kamberi when he came on. If we going to persist with one up front then need to do much better at getting support running from midfield. After a good start by Hunt I thought we offered little from wide positions. Overall I think this team can and will play a lot better as the season progresses. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Southie_Owl Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Disjointed is a good way to describe it, first 20 minutes it was fantastic and then we lost our way a bit. I still don’t think having a lack of forwards starting the game is the way to go. Hopefully Sow or Corbeanu will be fit to start soon in place of Johnson. But a great set of results to start the season. UTO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Hunt Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 3 minutes ago, malek said: Poor 2'nd half. Losing Hutchinson to injury hurt us and we started panicking. It is hard to play from the back with Dunkley in the side. If it was purely tactical decision than substituting Byers was not a good one. Along with Bannan he was our most composed player on the pitch and looked worst when he went off. There were some positives and some negatives to take from the game and we need to improve quickly if we are to keep our great start to the season. Agree with most of that apart from the booking where he took one for the team and a silly back heel though he was class , Brown for Johnson would have made more sense but in fairness Paterson and Kamberi put them selves about Dunkerley is ok in the air but is shocking with the ball at his feet. Hope the young lad from Everton is decent or we might suffer at the back 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Markowski77 Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 I think the ref played a big part in ruining the game, totally stopped the flow of it after he got card / whistle haply plenty of positives , plenty of things to improve Onwards and upwards WAWAW 3 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Advantage of we have over Ipswich is a pretty solid / above average base to build from with a very good (for league 1) back 4 who are familiar with each other and bannan in midfield. Good sides are built from the back and we had that in place only needed a solid keeper. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hootsman Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Got to be happy with 3 more points. We'll continue to improve and performances will get better (hopefully for the Rotherham game). Keep believing! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Felt losing Hutchinson changed our approach completely, we seemed to lose some confidence , he’s a massive player for our club Disjointed second half, but if we can win these games while we’re still finding our feet then who’s complaining A bit sharper and Gregory would’ve had hat-trick tonight Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CircleSeven Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 I honestly think there is so much potential in this squad. When you’ve signed a load of players on free signings and loanees like we have it’s going to take a bit of unlocking of that potential. We’ve seen in flashes what we are trying to do, and the results have been good. Sure things are hit and miss in how we are playing right now but who is actually surprised by this? And to not have conceded any goals at all so far is brilliant. I’d honestly have taken 0-0 tonight quite happily. Midweek game against a team who have done Ok I’m this league and are punching well above there weight is the sort of game we could easily have lost. But we won and played good football for a decent period of the first half. We are still a work in progress for sure but I’m very happy with how things have started. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iorfa , just quality isn’t he, Fleetwood could not get anywhere near him in the box the resorted to having to try shots from 25 yards 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ray Von shabba Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Talking in car on way back to pub. Not a classic after starting well but 3 points and clean sheet. Some flashes of good play, so +ve we can build on this, as early doors. Kamberi is going to be class. Bring on toytown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Work in progress but that midfield excites you, Adeniran looks a class act , so many options to change it up aswell Luongo and FDB probably walk into most midfields in this league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
