Bring on the .,,,, Burton

Well, after that Norwich second half we travel to Burton for an important week. With Cardiff A and PNE H coming up after this, imperitive we get 3 on the board here. Got a horrible set of fixtures coming up.

Really hoping we can bounce back. First half vs Nodge wasn't too bad, however we're utterly incapable of stringing together 90 it appears these days. At least Adeyemi + Garner should be fitter this week. Garner really appears key to how we do.

God knows what we'll do lineup wise, perhaps the same 11 as Nodge.

I'll say we'll nick this 2-1 however not too positive. COYB.

 

If we aren't careful we will be going for one!

 

I suspect that reference may go over the heads of one or two here JWM!

Yeah it just goes to prove how old I really am!!!









BUT not as old as Gaffer.....

 

A gritty and determined 2-1 win for the town.. Mick has always found ways of wriggling out of it when he's got fans on his back and an ugly win accompanied by an uninspiring 90 minute performance would be absolutely classic of Mick and his time with us.

Waghorn and Ward with the goals but ultimately we'll huff and puff and only barely get the better of them.

 

Horrible feeling this will be our first draw of the season. Morale is evidently low and we are on a poor run of form. Burton away just seems like a fixture that will trip us up.

1-1, Waghorn to score.

 

2-0 Town

 

Bad news for all of us McCarthy Outers....

Nothing new there really,it's what I've been resigned to for some time.My only fear is ME offers him more time because he lacks the imagination to seek out someone better for the job.

 

This takes the p*ss I don't think I've ever heard an Ipswich manager speak so dismissively about wanting to stay at the club (maybe bar Keane). Get him out now, all he cares about is his reputation, he doesn't give a damn about Ipswich as a club. Get him out now!!!

OUT OUT OUT!!!!

 

Really need a win here, defeat unimaginable. Can see it being a draw, however live in hope.

 

Going for a 'meta' reference here and ask if anyone else noticed our win / draw / loss count reads 6 0 6?

 

Form suggests otherwise, but I think we'll tonk burton. I'm going for a 5-2 win with both waggers and Garner getting a brace, and then ward off the bench.
We're due a win and fortunately we save them for the lower teams.
Mick will have a smug look, and will say he told us so, we'll get excited again, only to be ahot down next week

 

Less confident than you Stretchy however hope to god you're right!

 

We are ****!

 

Oh my ****in' god, we are ****!

I am on the brink of being deliriously livid.

We've managed one shot all half, and that came on the half hour mark. I haven't seen us string three passes together, it's ****in' abysmal.
There are teams way lower down the football tree who play better than us, on this current showing, we don't deserve to be in the Championship.

I got up last Sunday at 4am to watch us huff and puff against our rivals. That was the same day I started a 6 day run of 6am shifts at work. I only have today off before I do another week of work. I could've slept in, caught up on some sleep but no, I got up for a 7am kick off and I'm rewarded with that ****in' garbage. I'm almost at the point where I'm not going to bother and just wait for the result.

Mick and Marcus out!

 

Playing 4 strikers, which means at least 2 are playing out of position, whilst you have natural wingers like Celina on the bench. Fecking ridiculous i tell ya, who the feck is gonna create the chances for all these strikers.
Just FLICK OFF MM

 

I can't even be bothered to single anyone out for criticism, they've all been ****.
Mick is ruining yet another batch of players, just **** off already.

 

A good away point against the Mighty Burton!

They're a decent side said McCarthy after the game.
