    You put into words how I feel, slightly ambivalent about the result, I like to watch Final Score with the missus, normally I'm slumped down in my armchair as she makes puerile comments like "That's a good old Scottish name" when Forfar Athletics Abewango Azzizomimbi's name flashes up when he scores.....I sink lower and lower in despair but if Saints score (at the risk of her retorting "Dont be so stupid.....you're supposed to be ill" ) I'll be out of my chair, punching the air, screaming "get the f--- in!"

    Knowing recent games with Ipswich then either 3-2 or 2-2 with a goal in the 95th minute.

    Any lead is a dangerous scoreline, you know that.

    In fact, throughout history, no team that's ever taken the lead in a football match has gone on to win. Don't fact check that, just trust me.

    Maybe WE could score a goal from THEIR defensive error

    Not sure I can recall that happening at all this season; Anyone?

    VAR told the ref to review both the goals, they were both disallowed, Rambo was red-carded and Ipswich were awarded a penalty which they scored from before we were allowed to get a keeper on to replace him

    We were really good at Portman Road last season - maybe our best performance against any of the top eight sides other than Leeds at home - and never should have lost.

    It'll be interesting to see how big a gap has opened up between the two teams since then, because I'm struggling to see anything other than a comfortable home win today.

    I’ve had a good and productive morning so a win would be the icing on the cake for me.
    If we lose? I’ve still had a good and productive morning.

    Can I borrow you? I've had a lazy morning and Mrs No7 is out until 6 and has a list of 'productive' things for me to do :)

    1980 timatokethup watches from the family stand open to the weather under the guidance of Lawrie MC and the genius of MLT as his dad watches from the Archers road. 10 minutes before full time he walks down and stands by the players exit/entrance area and takes it all in. Nostalgia is one thing and I remember dark days under branfoot etc but NEVER have I approached every SFC game with the complete assurance that our team will lose without a fight. Sports Republic this is your ownership and your disaster.
