The Ginger Pele 20:55 - Nov 14 with 1657 viewsHackneyblueboy

Bumped into James Collins in a pub in the city today. Nice bloke. I said he was an Ipswich legend and he said he didn't get called that often.

Joking aside, what was that game where he was absolutely epic. I think we won 1-0 in the season we got relegated. Think he got injured after that and retired shortly after. Shame as could have become a bit of a cult legend for us if he stayed fit.

He was a warrior that game. Hobbling about at the end with cramp but still blocking shots.

The way we defended that day, mainly down to Collins, was incredible.

Not many times before had I wanted us not to concede so badly. If I remember right they absolutely bombarded our box in the second half.

3 shots, 1 on target in the whole game, at home to Rotherham. How times have changed. We had that total in about 10 seconds on Saturday!

Yeah but Lambert had us playing good football apparently…!

That dreary, boring and painful passing around the back 4.

Not what we needed that season.

Wänker.

The Championship was very poor that season, which is why we weren’t confirmed as relegated for an age. Lambert got it very wrong, rather than play for points and climbing out slowly he actually made us more vulnerable and we sank like a stone. However, Evans provided a "war chest" according to the papers which included signing the unfit and injured Collins, Keane, Quaner and another defender on loan who was awful, as it James Bree? Only Evans could appoint an ex Norwich boss to relegate us, he was tone deaf…

To be fair, that is probably the last time we beat them, isn't it?

No.

We beat them in January this year.

I've rarely been embarrassed to win a game of football, that day was definitely one of them. We were bloody awful!

I was born underwater, I dried out in the sun. I started humping volcanoes baby, when I was too young.
