Comment | De Zerbi: Sarmiento Was Important For Ipswich
at 01:29:40
Ipswich got promoted because of consistency. It was our record against the weaker sides that got us promotion, not against the better sides. That is exactly what we have to repeat next season to stay in the PL. Get a foothold and then we may be able to get more expansive. and further improve the squad |

Comment | Goodman: I've Been Nothing But Complimentary About Ipswich
at 00:20:36
Whilst he may be right about the number of goals conceded and the need to strengthen, his remarks about Leicester and Leeds are only part of the story. He doesn't mention that we out scored both and only lost 6 games, about 50% of either of those two clubs. |

Comment | Breitenreiter: Changes But We Have to Remain Professional
at 23:49:50
As I see it, our biggest potential enemy is over-committing to attack and getting caught on the break, as we did against Maidstone. We need better balance than in that game. If Huddersfield want to park the bus, so be it. We only need to ensure we don't lose. |

Comment | Breitenreiter: Changes But We Have to Remain Professional
at 17:40:58
The whole season boils down to this one match. Everyone at the club knows that and all the supporters too. That is is the foremost thought to bear in mind. Without concentration all that previous good work is wasted and no game is a given. So, it us that need to give the professional display, as I am sure we will, not Huddersfield. After all, McKenna is never anything less than professional and meticulous. |

Comment | McKenna: Up and Down Game, We Know Saturday Will Be Hard-Fought
at 09:36:17
We've only lost 6 league games this season. It would be against the odds to lose on Saturday and a tragedy at that. That is an incredible record for a newly promoted side. One more mature performance and we are home and dry. Credit to all involved at the club. |

Comment | Coventry City 1-2 Ipswich Town - Match Report
at 23:37:29
I'd just like to say, I like Mark Robbins and think he has done wonders considering the rough years Coventry have been through. If they stick at it they might be emulating us next year. Meanwhile, well done Town! Self-belief is a tremendous asset and can take you a long way. One more game to concentrate on and we can then all celebrate and recover - for next season. I hope we get promoted mainly for the benefit of the younger fans who never witnessed first hand the glory years that many of us did. |

Comment | Leicester Thrash Saints to Go Four Points Clear
at 23:06:39
Nothing has really changed. We still have our destiny in our own hands. We've spent a season high-performing. All that effort and hard work has come down to just three games. The players have had extra rest, physically and mentally, and come into these last three games knowing that if they play to the level they have generally performed at since August, they will be promoted to the Premier League. The task is black and white. |

Comment | Morsy: Our Biggest Strength Has Been How We Bounce Back
at 22:34:08
There are still enough points to gain in the remaining games to get automatic promotion. I get that a victory against Norwich is important to the fans but in reality it is still only worth 3 pts if you win. Look forward, not back. You can't change what has happened. Still all to play for. |

Comment | Martin: We Were the Best Team, We Didn't Deserve to Lose
at 23:13:19
Martin. This isn't ice dancing. You don't get points for style, nor do you get what you believe you deserve. You get points for not being beaten and even more points for legally getting the ball in the net more times than the opposition. The rules are quite simple really. |

Comment | Former Town Striker Wickham Joins Charlton
at 11:00:55
Sears main weapon was his acceleration and pace. that was never going to improve with age and injuries.
Always thought Wickham was overrated. He was just an early developer to my mind and got overtaken as he got older. |

Comment | McKenna: Credit to Maidstone, a Horrible Game to Lose
at 16:23:46
It takes a trip down towards the end of the comments it seems to find the first criticism of the tactics. KM got it wrong and the worrying thing is he doesn't appear to recognise that. How do non-league and lowly teams beat higher placed teams generally in cup games? By playing a packed defence and relying on swift counter attacks. All we did was batter away at a dense defence hoping for a lucky deflection. Meanwhile, our defence was too high and were undone by pace on the counter. That was not down to the players but the tactics. We didn't even change when we equalised and were back in command of the game. We needed to give Maidstone more room and confidence to play out to create the space that Sarmiento and Hutchinson could use to spring quick attacks on their own. It's no coincidence that Leeds have beaten us convincingly twice by using quick counter attacking football. One style of football, however attractive, cannot be deployed against every opponent. Has the lesson really been learnt yet? |

Comment | Town Targeting Wimbledon Striker Al-Hamadi
at 14:26:04
Perhaps he is wanted as a player who can hold the ball up front to help bring the midfield and wingmen into play more, rather than as an out-and-out goalscorer (though goals are always welcome!). If he is a handful he'd help create the space for others to score - hopefully! |

Comment | Town to Reveal Third Kit Tonight
at 13:33:39
Kiffer1 - Yellow and blue reflecting the colours of the Ipswich Town badge until some numpty changed that to red and blue. I blame a fifth columnist from Martlesham for that because BT changed from yellow and blue corporate colours to red and blue too for their logo! |

Comment | Burgess Wins Cap as Socceroos Beaten at Wembley
at 11:03:16
Nomore4 and SpiritofJohn - I think it is unfair to generally pick out any players as uninspiring in the England team as it isn't the choice of personnel but the sheer lack of urgency the team always display, no matter who plays, which is always the problem. That's down to the strategy of the coaching staff. The opposition are always allowed plenty of time to reset, which is completely baffling.
Yet another very dull game - have to agree with Fat_Boy_Tim. Good experience for Burgess though. |

Comment | Nine Subs On Bench in Championship
at 18:59:30
Don't understand all this nonsense about substitutes. All it does is devalue stamina as an attribute, in my opinion. We are always told that the players of today are much fitter than those of yesteryear. Well, give them a chance to prove it! |
