    ****e game made even worse by embarrassing refereeing.

    We need Cirkin back ASAP, imo.

    Pleased with that. Draw at Ipswich away. Good performance with a few injuries stacking up. No complaints about our performance, thought the ref was poor though, but then our yellow cards were pretty much deserved.

    Frustrating result and performance, need to be beating these teams if we want to go up automatically.

    Hopeful we will make the right signings in the window.

    Not sure what to make of that. Difficult with the big crowd and Ipswich being pumped up.
    Much better second half but still never really got going.
    Shame all the other teams won but I'll take it as a good point.
    Could have been a banana skin they were playing like it was a cup final.
    Some of heir player need to explain to their fans why they haven't been doing that all season

    I’d have taken a point before the game. It always looked a tough assignment - long trip, full stadium and American owners and manager in waiting watching in the stand.

    We’d have lost that game a month ago.

    as i said, very much a pattern forming here (still) where the opposition push, kick, trip their way to half time without a card against them, one of our lads makes a tackle 2nd half and in the book he goes...flanno's card was a joke, we see exactly the same thing almost every time the ball goes out when a player will walk away with it and eventually throw it back, flanno never even made it onto the pitch before he was yanked back and thrown to the deck and yet again, their player not even spoke to about retaliation, feckin joke these officials and i try to give them the benefit of the doubt as it is not an easy job.

    improved performance 2nd half, we deserved the equaliser and truth be told looked the most likely to score again, the problem was 3 or 4 very good chances were blown by our lad being offside, stewart needs a few tap ins here to get his confidence back, few weeks ago he would have scored easy.

    win at home, draw away is the aim so will take that from an ipswich team looking to prove themselves to the new manager who was in the stands, i really want a few games where the officials just do their jobs.

    Not just restricted to this L1 either as far as I can see, problem that needs addressing imo.

    Both of us drawing and they get the late goal and nick it. Hopefully our turn soon

    On the plus side I thought Denver had a really good game. For me he is our best wingback at the club, it’s just a shame he’s made of glass

    Hope we are looking at a strong ball winning midfielder in January.
    Winchester looked like he might fill the gap but think he's been a bit off the pace lately.

    Canny point in the end given all the injuries. Sounded much better second half and maybe could have snatched it with Stewarts chance.

    Will watch replays when posted but for now it seems we were poor in the 1st half, soft touch (a recurring problem ) just fouling and getting yellows not necessarily the answer.

    We were better 2nd half?... good team talk?

    Ref poor ( as usual)

    Good point considering the first half we had.

    The teams above us will drop points eventually. I thought Hume had a decent enough game when he came on, he’s definitely a much better wing back than full back.

    I don't know if he is I think he's just been unlucky. Before his big injury he was a regular. A lot of people me included thought Watmore was a crock and he's fine now, I'd say Hume is similar to him.
