v Ipswich Town (a) - 17/1/26

[Herbie6590]

Away to the Tractor Boys but with no Makhtar Gueye…how will we ever cope? 

[ruggles1995]

sadly i feel the mostly likely positive result we might get would be 0-0. 
Maybe we can score 1?...

But if we are to score or score more than 1, you feel it would need things like a penalty, own goal or red cards to swing in our favour. Until we get some strikers in the door, I just dont see any goals from anywhere. Can see us in the bottom 3 by at least the end of feb. 

Personally I think if we have no new additions or nobody back from injury, I think Id shove 1 of the CBs up top with Yuki, Samba esc jobby and try and play off knock downs, something different while we have zero options. 

[MarkBRFC]

Somewhere we never win, 1 win in 36 years at there place I think it is.

3-0 down by half time is my guess.

Ismael to come out after the game and say things are urgent and hope to have a striker in place by the end of the week.

94/95 season was the last time we got a win there… the club was in a slightly different place then.

Indeed, we’ve only ever won there one other time (in 1988). So the bogiest of all bogey grounds.

[SIMON GARNERS 194]

1-1 at very best for monsieur Val's misfits....roll the Dice,toss the Coin,flip the Card.

Fook knows tbh.

Does anyone have a clear idea who is back from injury? We need Gudjonsen up front desperately, and it's really unclear who will play left and right wing back? I guess with Cashin coming in alongside McLoughlin and Atcheson enables Miller to move out to RWB, but no idea what we do at LWB. Powell? Or suck it up and play players we know can't do that role (Riberio, Pickering, De Neve).

I guess midfield we will play Baradji, Cantwell and Tronstad. Toth should come back in.

2-0, we're not getting close to this lot now. We barely have a goal in us and we haven't strengthened any position we've needed to in January thus far.

The defence can't hold out forever and it will crack at some point.

I don't think anyone else is back. I think prior to the Hull defeat, Ismael said Mori and Gudjohnsen were still about 3 weeks away. So probably looking at another 2 weeks before anyone else gets back.

[WacoRover]

Strong effort vs Hull. I feel much more confident of Rovers’ defending, than their ability to score; but not really confident of either. 

Yuki or Cantwell, maybe; honestly, I can’t see more than 1.

tractors,2; Rovers, 1.

I imagine for this game he will go with a relative safe option in Pickering, his lack of attacking threat won't matter in this game because we will barely get out of our own half.

[RevidgeBlue]

We'll score nil, just a question of if/how many Ipswich score

"Exciting times" indeed.

[G Somerset Rover]

2-0 and another humbling defeat. Yet still there won't be talk of relegation within the local media or at the club itself.

Nothing to see here.
