Yes I don’t disagree. But one mistake, one stroke of luck and the picture can change dramatically. Ipswich needed a win and we only needed a draw. I know you have enough experience of watching football to know that. It was poor and would look poor on a live televised match. I know someone...

I can still guess the biggest driver. There were also lots of reasons why we were not necessarily beaten at 0-2 after 80 minutes, plus injury time to play.

You left off the I used to support Manchester United option.

But it wasn’t going to be a late finish was it. Most people seemed appropriately dressed for the weather. Most importantly people haven’t left in those numbers when we are winning. As fans don’t complain about players when you have no backbone yourself.

Why would his attitude be better here.

I appreciate and respect your personal circumstances, but that many don’t normally have to leave when we are winning.

We do it when defending corners. We bear huge some of the opposition. I don’t like it I do agree with it. But we aren’t completely innocent as a side either.

I think he is trying too hard. I can't fault his effort and work rate, but at times he just needs to add a bit of composure. That will only come by playing competitive football and building confidence.

So is shouting in someone face in certain circumstances. Football is a contact sport you know. I thought EMC gave a fair bit back in fairness.

People also forget the transfer was protracted so he missed pre season with Arsenal. Early on he was not match sharp. But more importantly he has had to learn to fit in and his team mates have had to learn about his style in actual league games. He will still come good, but he was never going...

They asserted dominance all over the pitch.

I am more interested about our other deficiencies rather than the refs.

Rushworth 8 - one save world class but distribution poor especially in first half. Van Ewijk 4.5 Woolfenden 6 Kitching 6 Brau 5 plenty of effort but lacks composure Grimes 6 Torp 4.5 Rudoni 5 Sakamoto 4.5 Wright 4.5 Mason-Clark 5 Eccles 5 Allen 5 Simms 5

Wright looked the best call but was not in control of the ball. Think the ref read it as two players equally running into each other. Saka was pulling on Kipre to start with, not convinced. The other incident I didn't see and wasn't featured in the highlights which says a lot.

Nonsense.

And Kastaneer back from a second stab at things. 😆 He is only 29!

I agree weak across many dimensions. But let's be honest all our players lost their physical battles. The persistence with the long ball forward from Rushworth, obviously a pre match tactic, killed us in the first half. A lot off it gave no chance for Wright, EMC or Sakamoto to compete. Also...

I can't remember any quality crosses. How many crosses came in from our wingers? Most of our balls into the box came from the long throw.

In fairness to Wright and Simms the service they got was appalling. In theory we had two wingers out there, who provided nothing. In comparison despite all Ipswich possession, their best moments came down our left from a natural winger, Jack Clarke.

Until a third walked out around 80 minutes. Totally embarrassing.
