    I too am as ever optimistic, but this time well grounded! Much encouraged by recent signings Barry et al and I am staying with my expectations with 4 weeks bedding in, stuttering performances, top 6 by October. Then with 1st XI sorted, we push on to fight for autos.

    A resounding 2-0 win today!

    If you had told me we have a front 3 from Chaplin, Barry, Aluko, Burns, Norwood, Bonne, Piggott 2 months ago, I would have taken yer arm off!

    It’s going to be a rollercoaster ride 1-3 down at half time we’ll storm the second half for a 4-3 victory…………………………….what am I thinking?

    2-1 to Town as per usual :emoticon-0105-wink:

    Got my ticket, first time at Portman Road since the COVID struck - so really looking forward to it. Heard the stadium has been given a spruce up too.

    I’m hoping we’ll click against what should be quite limited opposition. This opening run of fixtures looks quite forgiving on paper, so hopefully the errors we’ll make (and with a whole new team, I’m expecting several) won’t be punished as heavily if we were up against the likes of Sunderland, Rotherham, Lincoln etc.

    I’ll go for a 2-0 win, Pigott and Chaplin to score.

    Stadium has had new white and yellow lines painted, got new chairs in the dugouts, new carpet in the dressing rooms. There have been a lot of improvements made already, hope you notice a big difference and have a great day mate <ok>

    It looks like iFollow are not streaming matches in the UK on Saturdays again. Might have to sort out some VPN malarky, but not messing around with that today.

    Evans is a midfield maestro! His passing is outstanding and he’s snapping into tackles.

    Damn. He got the ball in the gap between defence and mid and neither the two mids or defence seemed to know who was supposed to deal with it.

    Poor Toto, not the start he wanted either. And hello, we have no real cover there!
