Wingers QE II

I was his paper boy back in the day. Over the weekend he had every paper delivered bar the FT and The Morning Star. Sleep well Terry.

My take on Simms is that whilst he has recently improved on retaining possession from a ball out of the back it's still not a strength. That should be a basic requirement.

Too many players out of form. MVE and Tats having mares, Rudoni still under the weather... Need to pick it up second half. If we do, can see us winning but not with a repeat performance of that half.

If Haji is off, don't worry. I see two options and they'll have been lined up. I don't believe that Frank hasn't seen what many here can and hasn't considered bringing in a new striker. Honestly, I think Ellis is off in the summer too. Neither are good enough in my opinion. Option 1: we...

I wonder if all the noise about Manneh a few weeks ago about other clubs was an indication that his club and agent are fucking around again. In which case, we may have moved on.

All my commentator bingo phrases came in today: Kitching has gone right through him Wright is offside That's a poor pass from Thomas Poor first touch from Simms Good ball forward but Wright can't hold it up

Campbell is good for them. If we don't buck up I can imagine us losing this game.

For the most part we certainly don't look like the league leaders today. Scrappy and largely unable to keep the ball. I get the team is almost 50% made of substitutes and we look it too.

Google says: was at one stage valued at £65m. Brighton were willing to sell for £25m in the summer but he went on loan to Roma with a EUR 40m option. Also says Haji value is between £10m - 12m. I don't think this is impossible. We'd only need an extra £10m or so to top up proceeds from a...

The inevitable highlights link, for those like me that don't follow football generally (only the city) and had never heard of him. Looks to me that he's better than Haji all round but especially with his head and ball retention.

Both were penalties imo.

Thoroughly outplayed throughout. How can we go from the first half at Portman Rd to that?

Can't find anyone in blue with a pass, have we even completed one? Ipswich are winning the first, second and third ball and outnumber us everywhere. Are they playing with 15 men?

I don't want my phone stuffed with junk tracking me.
