    Match Thread Ipswich Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 6th Dec

    Ipswich will also be thinking more about how to handle us. We’ve scored more away goals than they have at home and our form is a lot better. I’m more confident about this fixture than a week ago and don’t think we’ll lose. They’ve beaten one team in the top half so can see why their fans are...

    The Overlap

    Agreed but it certainly beats the awkward questions of ‘who owns the ground now’ or ‘I remember when Coventry were in the Prem’. I’ve never even seen my club play in the Prem 😂

    'Second Tier' Podcast eats humble pie about Lampard

    Their assessment of that Derby team is delusional. All those top loanees they had broke out at Derby… they were never a automatic promotion team and the Villa team that beat were just objectively a better team in every way. Seen their ‘manager ranking’ and it’s just a terrible take.

    FC 26

    Agreed on that, I find most games that the AI will happily have 60-70% possession in their own half and very rarely threaten the goal. It’s far too easy and frankly makes the game a little bit boring and I’m playing ‘legendary’ which in previous titles years ago, I’d get battered.

    Have we been linked with Neilsen? It’s not a name I recognise! Who is he and where does he play?

    The ‘wobble’ month

    The bookies won't even take your money on us making the playoffs, they're that sure we'll make the playoffs. All models indicate we'd need to capitulate to mess up even automatic promotion because as people have mentioned, the amount of wins needed to hit 90 points for the other teams is...

    The old adage is ‘innocent until proven guilty’, is it not? By all means, take the allegation seriously but the onus is to provide proof that the alleged incident(s) took place. In any case, what someone says as a child or young adult generally isn’t reflective of what they think as an adult.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    It depends. Ultimately it depends on whether or not the subject still believes what they said. If they still believe ‘x, y or z’, there is no ‘time limit’. Suppose someone said a racist thing as “a joke”, it clearly isn’t acceptable behaviour but if someone repents, they should be forgiven. If...

    To be clear, Corbyn’s words were on record and he was an MP rather than a schoolboy. In any case, I’m pretty sure he didn’t disavow what he said. In fact, Corbyn only ever tried justified what he said with regards to him meeting with the IRA and Hamas/Hezbollah. All we have on the Farage...

    If it can be proven, then absolutely people should be punished. In this case, the fundamental issue at play here is that the allegations are unverifiable, at best it’s he said, she said. It’s also the case that immature teenagers probably say shit that’s deliberately hurtful rather than because...

    Match Thread Ipswich Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 6th Dec

    I'd seen somewhere on another thread that he was due back for PNE away, this could be wrong and to miss 2 games due to concussion protocols seems like overkill to be honest.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    No, I’m afraid the pot is calling the kettle black. Your initial input compared to Farage allegedly saying horrible things to Begum doing illegal things. This comparison was deliberate even if it was implicit. Which is a stupid moral imposition because Farage didn’t do anything illegal (deeply...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Deeply misleading question because you’re presuming guilt. There’s a reason we assume innocence before guilt and in this case, the claims are unverifiable and the timing of the allegations are deeply suspicious. Why now rather than 2016 If someone accused you of racism without proof, should you...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Really?! This is your argument? 😂 Firstly, taking the allegations at face value, no one is really saying Farage didn’t know what he was doing. They just don’t think words said 50 years ago is relevant to today. Secondly, joining a terrorist group and supporting their crimes is a crime and...

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    It’s not quite the same thing as someone going to the Middle East and joining ISIS, is it? 😂 No one can actually prove what Farage said but we know Begum did what she did. Dumb whataboutism, next.

    Do you want to discuss boring politics?

    Seeing as Farage has been in the public eye for 10+ years now, the timing of these unverifiable allegations strikes me as suspicious to be honest. The electorate writ large accepts that, even if the allegations are true, what people said 50-60 years ago as kids is not really relevant. The...

    Match Thread Ipswich Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 6th Dec

    Agreed. However, we're missing BTA, Wright (50:50), Sakamoto which probably means that we'll end up playing a variation of 5-3-2 even if we don't start with it. I'm leaning towards naming an unchanged team to start and finishing the game playing 5-3-2/3-4-3 and it depends on Rudoni's fitness imo.

    Match Thread Ipswich Town - Coventry City Match Thread - Saturday 6th Dec

    There’s a chance of it because Ipswich have struggled against teams that play 3 CBs and wing backs. A quick scan shows the only team playing 5 defenders is Swansea. They’ve played Bristol, PNE, Charlton, Blackburn, Wrexham, Derby, Southampton and even Bromley. Whilst they’ve won 1 win in 9...

    Transfer Rumour Keyan Varela

    It is a great find, but has taken him a while to adapt and looking ahead to this window, any signings need to hit the ground running.
