Facts n Stats Ipswich. Managed by two of the five greatest English Managers of all time, Sir Alf n Sir Bobby. the other 3 being Cloughie Paisley n Brucey. Two of the greatest English painters born in the vicinity. Gainsboro and Constable Bit of class that on a lot of nana's walls in the 70's. The finest fact ever follows. You've heard of Billy Butlin, you've heard of Fred Pontin. Never heard of Wally Hoseason??Born at Southwold just down the rerrrd. George Orwell lived close by for a bit. FACT Steve Wright's not very popular in Ipswich. Dunno why... Horatio, Lord Nelson was the Steward of Ipswich for a time. And lastly Ipswich is a palindrome of Bolton.! Take a rest Jak. McGregor Odubajo Dawson Maguire Robertson Snodgrass Livermore Hayden Clucas Diame Hernandez Lets get a few up early and get Hernandez off, and Diame. Give Curtis a bit more recovery for Wensdee. Regulation 2-0.
Another fact - my auntie lives near there (Felixstowe, just a few miles down the road). Forget the Ramsey and Robson stuff, that's the proper stuff fans need to know. Here's some past meetings:
Bravo Chazz, you've set the bar high now. I expected no less, and I expect the same for Friday. Anyhoo, we just stopped ****ing Arsenal from scoring. We'll not concede again all season. FACT. We're on top of the crest of a wave at the moment, nothing can stop the Mighty Tiger Juggernaut from crushing the tractor boys like one of those big, exciting, over sized American truck thingys like they're just an old 2 berth caravan meeting a steamroller. Head on. BOOM! Regulation 0-4. Nailed on tomorrow.
Whatever medication it is that you're taking I suggest you stop immediately - we can't have optimistic Hull City supporters.It's not allowed.
I'd be tempted to go with 3-5-2 for this one, Dawson, Maguire and Davies have all been playing well, whereas Clucas has been poor in the last two games. Not only do I think it improves the starting XI, but it also suits Dave and Robbo and is also better for Huddlestone (who I think will start ahead of Hayden).
If you've been supporting Hull City for any length of time then your life must be full of disappointments. Far better to expect the worst - so when it happens you are expecting it - than to expect the best - and be consistently let down!
You sound like my missus. Why dwell on the past? I can't get my head round expecting the worst, being depressed then seeing a self fulfilling prophecy. Why be like that when you can be glass half full then if it goes to ****, it goes to ****. Something better will come along shortly. Life's too short for misery and expecting the worst.
I work with an Ipswich pass holder. I'm told that they've won 16 Tuesday night home league games in a row. Mick usually gets plenty of graft out of them, so we'll have to be at our best to take the points.
Completely agree with the 3 5 2 approach. Stood us very well in the past. And with McGuire playing so well it cries out for it. Lets hope SB goes with that.
