Bottom of the League at Portman Road #goingdown

[Number 9]

I am loving the job Agents Lambert and Gill are doing, the new manager bounce wasnt much of a bounce and didnt last very long at all...I'm loving this, just loving it !

Lambert needs a statue at the Carra

You need some magic sipping potion OR. Must admit it was a good comment from Morty

I do don't I GIR! Don't say that too loud or Morty will get above himself.....................

Wonder what thoughts Mr.Gill has been having. Is the grass there really that green?

The only thing green there is that growth on top of the stand they seem to like so much.

Ipswich need 12 wins from 26 games, that's currently 12 times their current number of wins.

incidentally, we have more wins this season than they have points

When you look at the numbers, it's hard to imagine Ipswich getting enough of the wins which they need now and the others around them losing extra games so the scum can catch up.
There's 4 or 5 teams above Ipswich battling to avoid the two relegation slots left, this competition itself should ensure that Ipswich can't catch up and overtake them to safety.

But surely they have a multi millionaire owner who will light up the January transfer window with a few club record signings?

Ipswich for sale apparently, it's on the radio.
I did see a sign at the stables, Ipswich for sale, 50p per bag!

It's not a great sight for Ipswich fans, but if Ipswich were looking for any sign of hope they take a look at Doncaster, who were still bottom for Christmas and with only 18 points 13 losses in 23, but they went on a charge, 13 wins in 23 and secured survival. We won't talk about which teams ended up relegated that season though... I think this shows however that at the bottom, losing can be such a fear that they resign to grinding out draws, when it is actually far better at the bottom to go for it, throw caution to the wind. At the top yes you will have to grind out a few draws to keep the momentum going but at the bottom it just won't cut it, you've got to go for it.

So Ipswich have to get 9 points for safety, assuming that the 3 teams above them lose every game.

Wigan visit Poorman Road this week, lets hope Town continue their terrible run

 

[David Evans]

Just checked out Wigan's form, can't believe the stark difference between home and away for them, 21pts at home, 4pts away.

If Ipswich can't get 3 points of Wigan this weekend you have to wonder who can they get 3 points from?

Ipswich Town - the gift which keeps giving
