This would be the mother of all comebacks now. Is it that our team are simply knackered, or are the wheels coming off?
0-3 now and the possibility of a comeback is not good. We look very jaded and we all knew the chance of this coming was on the cards so we just have to suck it up and return to the basics that got us where we are, which I'm sure all will agree is way better than we expected.
A game too far, we are far better than 12 months ago, nothing to worry about, need 1 or two new faces and lets get back to winning ways against Norwich
Ffs. What is going on? Remember Ipswich beat us 6-0 the year we made the playoff final. Keep the faith.
The boys will bounce back, this type of result was bound to happen after what our team have done recently
Embarrassing tonight.left when the third was put in.We cannot keep going on about the Man Utd game. The club has a magnificent chance at grabbing that second spot. However reinforcements are required now. That was as bad a display as you could get tonight. I hope the club are ready to address the situation,before it is to late.
Watch out he's about, it will be Johnson out next, we got thrashed, tired legs, tired minds, the next game is not important, make a lot of changes to give our better players a chance of recovery, one game doesn't make a bad side, we will be back.

Until the first goal we were the better team and if we had scored first then I think we would have gone on too win. Their first goal came out of nothing and then the lead fell into our legs and tired bodies played their part. Even then if Flint and Taylor hadn't got in each others way at the start of the second half we may still have got something. It was a game too far. The problem is we can quite easily (and very likely) to lose the next two matches as well
