    I'll stick with my 2-1 prediction,we're bound to let in a scrappy effort sooner or later.

    Cheltenham have lost 19 games, so we will turn up at the Races and cruise past the post.

    3 -0 Town.

    As I and others have said before, we will drop points before the end of the season, but I am confident we can keep this amazing momentum & winning run going until Peterborough away.
    So lets not get too dispirited if we do drop a few points and have a couple of draws.
    With our goal difference, we can perhaps afford to lose one game and it will still be in our hands. But of course that would add pressure on those last 6 games.

    As I've also said before, it's just fantastic to be in a promotion chase at this stage of the season!

    So, it should be a win at the Races, but most fans know this run will eventually end and we must still get behind the boys and see them over the line.

    COYBs!

    Surely not a ninth straight win? This Ipswich team is insanely well-coached and look Championship class.

    I know Spanish called an eight-game winning run with this team a while back - and fair enough on that prediction - but it’s important to reiterate that this type of run doesn’t happen often in League One. We’re a special team in brilliant form and hopefully that continues.

    2-1 win for Ipswich. Let’s hope the other three front runners slip up and drop points!

    Why not a ninth straight win? Let’s get the points in the bank and get it done.

    You have to go back to that horrible day at Oxford for the last time we lost in the league, yet we are just 1 point above the owls and still behind argyle. One or worse case scenario 2 of us will end up in the play offs. I can see the top 3 all picking up maximum points today. It is going to be a stressful end to the season.

    At times, us supporters are probably more anxious than the club, players and management, especially those who have lived with the highs and lows of Ipswich over 40 to 50 years!

    Taken some knocks, Edwards and Ladapo to come on later and run rings around them in this wind and small rough pitch.

    I think I’d have gone with Ladapo. COYB, let’s keep our noses in front.

    Trying to keep feet on the ground, but if we're truly claiming that we're now championship standard then a game against a lower half team should pose us no difficulties. That said, it would be very Ipswich to lose 3-0.

    Cue, he scores a blinder! Prefer Freddie or Edwards myself.

    I'm not the biggest Harness fan either but hopefully he'll prove himself worthy.

    iFollow seems to be behaving itself so far and no need for a trip abroad!

    I was thinking we’ve started sloppy and a bit complacent.
