We will concede goals like that this season. Inevitable. Isn't the first time, won't be the last. Shame it happened to Winks but thankfully didn't affect the result- bloke's got more than enough credit in the bank for anyone to get wound up about it.

Ffs Hudders 2-2

Don't think I can remember Ipswich scoring without a deflection involved.

Guess who conducted the inquiry

Go and get the 'Rudkin Out' banners.

aye, in isolation that's an issue. In my opinion that's a product of us inviting them on, giving them nothing to worry about and letting them have the ball for half an hour. We were dead on our feet by the end.

It's not the defence that's the issue.

That's wound me up way more than Cov. All over them first half, why the **** are we sitting off in the second?

His injury record is no worse than Ricardo's and Enzo has managed him well- Championship is far less intense, particularly in our system. A few months here, being rotated, might be just what he needs to get his career back on track. Good move for all parties as far as I'm concerned.

Good job they have gone on general sale, judging by how many we've shifted so far.

So that relates to the period ending with the 2022/23 season now, and the 2 sides immediately above us being sanctioned. We've moved on, but it may actually be worth the club pursuing this legally now.

It was pretty good in patches towards the back. Front looked dead. Standard procedure.

And they're absolutely welcome to it. Hideous location for a football ground. Only saving grace is that you don't actually have to go into Coventry.

I'm not having the 'bottled it' talk. 10 men away from home, against a team in form with the crowd up for it and a ref who had folded under pressure... thought we held out pretty well to be honest, it certainly wasn't like the last 2 Forest debacles (and that showed from the amount who clapped them off at the end). Shite result and sometimes it ain't your day, but it wasn't through a lack of effort or determination to win. Dust down, onto next Monday.

That's on Abdul, unfortunately. Just get to half time and don't give the useless twat with the whistle an excuse to flap it. Can't fault the effort second half though, they didn't fold, scrapped for it and weren't far off getting something. Not a lot you can do with 10 men sometimes.

Came on here to say similar. Long time since we've played there... think some will be surprised at how hostile it's going to be. Always edgy.

Exactly. Win this and it will pay Ward's wages for an entire fortnight.

Wouldn't get your hopes up. Usually a poor end at Cov.

Win this and I might start believing we're after Reading's record. Will be a tough game and I'd probably take a draw.

Only negative was that we were a bit sloppy- to be expected considering we played the reserves.

First half up there with the worst I've heard at this place. There was a moment when Winks got the ball on the edge of our box, about to be closed down and no 'MAN ON' from the stands whatsoever- so it's not just the lack of singing that's an issue, it's the entire concept of being audibly invested in the match. Could hear a pin drop in the brief moments Union FS lads weren't at it.

Seems to come alive as soon as you give him a sniff of goal. Great to get him up and running for the start of AFCON.

Their away form ain't so bad. Could be closer than most are expecting, particularly with the changes. Reckon we'll nick it late when KDH is on.

Did we even have a defensive coach last year?

Can't remember when he left, but I do remember consistently saying that he was absolutely stealing a living as our defensive coach so probably not.
