Win at all costs? Not for me thanks. I hated it when we had Marlon King at the club. I think John Terry is a nasty piece of work and I'd rather we were less good without him than better with him.

Because he's always come across as an arehole and when there's an arsehole in the group, either as a leader or not, they cause disruption. Groups of good people are what we need. In my view anyway

Is that because of his history as an England player perhaps? Although very few England managers have been successful England players, Southgate I guess?

That doesn't alter my views

One thing that seems to have worked well in recent years, certainly with the players, is they seem to have made a big effort to appoint people who are decent and non-disruptive. It seems to be a big part of the ethos to make sure that individuals are friends with each other and form a bond etc...

He won't drop Rudoni for Eccles, I get the feeling that, like Wright, he plays if fit regardless of form. Same side I reckon

Why do you keep adding 'tards' to other words and parts of words? Makes you look horrible. Have you ever considered what it means?

I've been reading through a lot of this thread. People have the right to state their grievances of course, and it was a disappointing result and more disappointing that we couldn't finish off 10 men. I don't think it was as bad as some people are making out though. We were good in the first...

Everyone playing well so far

I love Sakamoto. I’m in love with him

Is the kit man story accurate ?

This feels a long build-up to this one. Maybe because it's a tense one and a week between games. I have a feeling we'll be a bit makeshift upfornt, I've noticed that when people predict injuries they are usually right. We could realistically be without Rudoni, Wright, Sakamoto and Thomas-Asante...

As for a wobble, it may well happen this month. We are a bit depleted and we have a lot of matches, but this is the same for most teams at this time of year. I think we'll dro psome points but be broadly fine

The parachute thing means nothing if they aren't winning games. Everyone has been saying for a few weeks that Ipswich are the team to watch and they'll be in the top two but it seems it was based on a short good run which has culminated in losing to Oxford. If they don't win tonight then maybe...

I have a feeling that all football fans feel like this to an extent. I think especially for a team who has waited so long to get back to the top tier after being there for so long before relegation. It feels impossible that it could finally happen after 25 years. I can’t help but feel nervous...
