The Championship Thread 2023/2024

Like I said lets see how Ipswich do when they aren't playing 3 of the teams at the bottom of the form table.

[KingsX]

Maybe we should all just realize Ipswich are ahead of the curve on tactics.  Get the ball in/near the box and kick it hard off a defender.  (Or one of your own if no defender is handy.)

 

Takes the keeper right out of the play.

Let me guess was it a deflection by any chance?

Is it good or bad?

More worried Southampton could catch us than Ipswich will.

[whitlock]

I had written off it as an Ipswich win before KO, just annoying it was so close to a point!

 

Southampton losing is the main one for me, I fancy Ipswich to drop points over next few games, Rotherham are pony and they limped through.

 

It’s still all good.

Unless you think their strikers are intentionally hitting the ball off of defenders?

You might have to wait a while, look at their next 6 fixtures....

[iancognito]

Absolute bunfight division 🤣

[Sly]

4 out of our next 5 matches are going to be tough. 

[Leicester_Loyal]

I’d have taken that prior to KO. Just need Saints to lose a couple more in their next 13 games and I don’t think they’ll catch us. 
 

Ipswich will have a couple of games where they don’t get that bit of luck.

Yes I've seen them 

 

They could win every one until Southampton/Norwich

 

Unlikely though really, surely?

Just putting it out there ….we have a tough set of fixtures 

[trabuch]

Ipswich don't seem to know when they are beaten. Easy to write them off for top 2, but they don't seem to think like that.

The final table if Ipswich, Leeds and Southampton get maximum points

 

(including Leicester losing to Leeds and Southampton)

(and note that Ipswich and Southampton can't both win their game on matchweek 40)

(and note that Leeds and Southampton can't both win that final game)

 

 

That'd be:

• Ipswich 16 wins in a row
• Leeds 21 wins in a row
• Southampton 15 wins in a row

I suppose the key finding is, even if we lose to Southampton and Leeds, don't panic!

SOUTHAMPTON MAX 106 now

Brendan Rodgers has done irreversible damage to me because in my mind we’re about to finish 3rd

We've been saying that all season about Ipswich though and the luck isn't changing 

[EastAnglianFox]

Ipswich heaping pressure on Leeds after that…..yeah I’m clutching 

[oxtonfox]

According to SLY we have the toughest run in and Ipswich is the easiest by far. That said they almost blew the easiest of them all tonight.

trip to wembley then

[RearsbyFox]

Pleased Soton lost but Ipswich with yet another late goal. Rotherham couldn't hold on for sixty seconds? Get back to League One and stay there.

[jonny_wright]

Leeds will lose a couple, but if they beat us Friday I think they won’t lose till week 40 vs Cov…. Leeds got by far the best run in so you’d fancy them to get it done now
