I think these have lost a few games at home recently so would be lovely to keep the run going. Anyone know fitness updates on Klose and Leitner? Am a bit out of the football loop just now!

Good to see that Sheff Utd and West Brom are playing Friday night, and neither can bother us in regards to league position.

Bristol haven't lost for 3 or 4 games actually since they played Leeds away and lost 2-0, so have been on a little run.
We should match Leeds result against them, 0-2

Do I keep my allegiences secret until I pass probation? :D

I am actually seeing evidence of a bit of a love in between us and Leeds on Twitter, in so much that they don't mind if we go up with them lol.

Leeds play Bolton tomorrow so should be looking at 3 points, as are we.
Sheff Utd and W Brom tonight, how about a High scoring draw? 5-5 anyone?

No Klose. Hanley a doubt. Leitner travels but not got 90mins in him.

So if all goes well today, we will be 35 points clear of the scum by 7:30 this evening! 35!

Gutted that I missed the game last week, I knew that 5 days in Rome with the missus wouldn't prove as exciting as spending a cold Norfolk evening watching Bolton.

Looking forward to this though. I do have a feeling that this could finally be the gane that undoes us, but I've felt like that a few times this season and this team continue to prove me wrong, much to my delight. If we can get 4 points from the next 2 that would be a superb return, but will be no easy task. With West Brom beating Sheffield United last night we have the chance to go 7 points clear of 3rd. As it stands as well at half time in the 3pm games Leeds are drawing and Boro losing, so we'd be in such a strong position with a win. OTBC

Feel our luck may well run out tonight, last time Ipswich won we lost so bad omens and with the injuries we have think Bristol could get the win, 2-1 my prediction

Not a great performance at all but at times we have played some nice stuff, and having been leading with a minute til half time we should've seen out the 1-0. A player of Tettey's experiences shouldn't be losing the ball in that sort of position moments before half time. Lovely goal from Stiepermann though, and a couple of brilliant saves from Krul in there too. Do have to say Buendia really needs to up his game 2nd half.

We all know how good we are in the 2nd half though. Got some great options on the bench to bring on too. COYY

Bit concerned that we may be found out at the back today

Lee Johnson got the tactics right today, was clear from the start that he to ensure that we couldn't use Krul as an eleventh outfield player and looked like they had been working all week on trying to match our tempo.... which they must have the fitness levels to do, as a lot of teams wouldn't be able to achieve that.

It was a bit like playing against a less polished version of ourselves at times with their pressing.

Bit of a frustrating evening, but a point away from home against an in-form team, while missing Leitner and Klose, arguably our two best players, isn't a bad result at all.

Got some tricky fixtures coming up, so hopefully we can up our game for those. Showed great resolve again today though, and still comfortably in the autos.

Some sloppy performances today. Midfield, very much below par. Tettey was last years version, shaky. Sadly missing Klose and Lietner. Krul did well. BUUTT, We still got an away point. Yesss
