Leeds and Southampton next! Everyone’s grassing everyone else up I feel!

Against Modern Football!

If you look back in blocks of 10 matches counting backwards we average 1.7 points per game in the last 10 and 2.4 points per game in the 10’ prior to that! If we carry on with the same form will give us 97 points, if we revert back to 2.4 and regain that form the. We get 103 points and just surpass what we achieved with Big Nige. if we get something in the middle I.e 2 points a game we achieve 100 points. Plenty to think about but the main thing is to change that mentality back to pre Christmas and kill teams off when we have the periods in the game that we dominate. Let’s face it we haven’t been totally out of any of the games that we have lost just not taken our chances when we did. Some of which have come back to haunt us. Vardy and Vestergaard against Boro at home, Daka and Mavadidi at Leeds. We haven’t been ruthless enough so now’s the time to change and start making our own luck a bit more starting with positive substitutions for a start!

Faes is no leader and agree he needs dropping for Coady! He is to casual and I feel He gets bored and switches off! At least Coady is organised and is an organiser!

Leeds are in title winning form nobody likes to hear it and they have a manager who has won this league before! Ipswich like us have a tough run of fixtures against play off chasing teams and there manager has the experience and energy from last season’s promotion. We have been too inconsistent throughout any 90’minute period and flick from unplayable to school playground football. We have a manager in his first full season of management in England and it shows at times with his decision making especially regarding substitutions and tactics late in the game. We have been to conservative at times in our play when ahead. I am convinced that Daka walking straight back in from AfCon hasn’t helped as Tom Cannon was in good form and this appears to have gone against what he said about in form strikers keeping their spot! We still have 27 points to play for and all we can hope for is that we return to that pre Christmas form and nick Top somehow or second by aiming for top spot! Before Leeds I thought we would know our fate when we play Southampton at home! Now that game has been moved I still feel the same!

Nah it was pretty resounding I thought at Hull and a little bit of Sack the Board! He needs to go for the Lee Congerton appointment alone! That man dug this hole we now find ourselves in! Sunderland only just recovering from his spell there!

I can’t wait til Man City play Real Madrid for the 8th time in the Super League season is some dusty bowl in the Middle East in front of a crowd of instagramers and rich men. Only gotta look at the state of boxing when they are fighting in Saudi. It’s more of a red carpet photoshoot than a boxing event. They will never ever take away 2015/16 from us just prevent it from ever happening again!

It’s all off field noise and spin trying to detract us from winning the league! Last years off field rumblings stirred up by the press worked a treat didn’t it!

Need to sell some academy team players to Leuven at over inflated prices to move some money around!

I’m the same Ric and can see a bit of Leicestering coming along the horizon. If you remember It took Brian Little 3 seasons to get promoted via the playoffs and be successful with his worst footballing team!

Leeds under Bielsa ran out of steam in 18/19, but came good the following season after losing the playoffs to Derby. If that’s an example of success?

Must Win. Coady has to start. Everyone at Bournemouth should acknowledge the importance he played in that win! He needs to shepherd Faes and whoever gets the nod alongside him! Clean sheet should be a the priority.

The tickets gone now, but it was for my boy who is 19 and can’t make it

I have a spare ticket in the lower tier - it’s a concession - under21/over65 but marked by a tick in a box only!
