Ipswich are capable of beating Boro certainly but it won't be easy and I don't see them beating Soton in all honesty. Games in hand just create pressure and add to fatigue.

and if people think that Ipswich won’t drop more points, they have 5 games in 18 days now with 3 away

Can't see Ipswich reaching 85 points

That would be a strange way to do it wouldn't it... No wins in the last six wins us the Championship!!

They need the comeback from comeback from Hell if they're going make it,do they have the belief, probably not, I'm guessing there's some turmoil occurring with them over players who are not producing, but there is hope,they should latch onto that wherever they can find it.

It's the one blight on the horizon for my prediction, however the same day they play that cup game, Ipswich go away to West Brom, who are also fighting for their lives. That's not going to be an easy game either.

So 4 points from the next 2 guarantees we’ve won the league BEFORE the Wrexham game ? but we’ll beat Wrexham just to make sure

Because I might point out for the 18th time it’s more down to how we attack than how we defend?

If you think we’re keeping this defence together next year you’re in for a shock.

Ive long maintained that we’re better with Lati in defence and that our defensive record is down to dominating teams and an outstanding keeper but go off.

Charity bet we don’t start next season with this back line? You’re so confident they’re all the best in the division should be easy money right?

Since the Data King told us we must assume Ipswich will win all their games their record is

6W - 3D - 2L

So 10 points dropped in 11 games

Ipswich will beat Portsmouth tonight easy.We will regret that awful performance Saturday as if we don't pick up performances I can see them beating us to the title,that would be fucking terrible considering how long we have been top for.
Click to expand...
No games are easy in this league I've learned over many years of watching.As for Saturday being "awful" there were some great crosses that just needed a touch and we would have relaxed little things make a hell of a diffence.
Just think after the weekend we might just see Middlesboro level on points with Ipswich. Before tonight who would have thought that.
Enjoy the ride

100/1. A few of us have taken them at this price and it was less than 2 weeks ago. Just had a look at my bet and it was on the 3rd April. Best value bet of the season.

Be interesting to see if Southampton play a slightly weakened side in the cup to keep their first choice players a bit fresher . I know that sounds mad, but if its looking like a winner takes 2nd versus Ipswich a few days later, then given the riches of the Premier league, it wouldn't shock me.

Yep it is.

A draw would see us needing just a win to have the title secured minus a huge GD swing.

We just need to beat Blackburn, hopefully convincingly and then it puts to bed any talk of goal difference and heaps pressure on Ipswich

Yeah remember it well, Wolves only need a point away at Crystal Palace to be Champions, but got beat.

We beat Millwall at home and we became Champions. It's a funny old game.

For some reason I went to Highfield Road later that summer, and the Millwall score was still up on the scoreboard.
