    Saturday see's us take on Burton Albion, they had a decent away win last weekend by taming the shrews, whilst we showed that we are not world beaters!!

    This is a tricky one to predict but I'm gonna stick my neck out and say.......
    5-0 town, just to prove to Yorkie, aka 'the grinch' that we are world beaters!!

    5 all draw.

    we are 5 nil down at half time :angry:

    during the half time break the back room legal team arrange a emergency loan deal for a certain player <whistle>, he parachutes onto the pitch midway through the second half then through some amazing link up play with Norwood & Jackson (Brazil 70 style) we bang in 5 goals in the last 20 minutes to grab a point.

    Despite it only being the second league game of the season, this does have a slight ring of 'must win' about it. Hopefully, we can get the first victory of the season against a side that typically punches above its weight. We've played Burton eight times in our history and won all but one of them (which was a draw). However, if there's a good time to play this Ipswich Town side, it's in the first month or so of the new campaign.

    I'll opt for a nervy 2-1 Town win, with Pigott hopefully getting off the mark.

    2-2. Our defence has a calamity per game in it plus this system exposes them even more and we’re away.

    Gonna hedge my betting, but i'm torn between getting beat 2-1, and stuffing them 4-1.....i think whoever scores first, will win.

    Burton are my outside tip for a play off place

    Stuttering, error strewn performance but end up 2-1 winners with some strong aggressive forward play.
